In a recent combat update from the Phoenix unit have released new footage highlighting their latest successful drone strikes. The operations took place in the Kramatorsk direction, a hotly contested axis in the east of Ukraine.
The video shows the destruction of multiple high-value enemy targets, emphasizing the growing role of drone warfare in Ukraine's tactical operations. Among the destroyed assets are enemy infantry units, the BM-21 Grad multiple rocket launcher system, one anti-aircraft gun, one armored vehicle, and a military truck. Each of these assets represents both a battlefield threat and a logistical burden for russian forces.

The Phoenix unit has consistently demonstrated its ability to deliver high-precision strikes while operating from concealed positions. Their use of FPV drones showcases not only technical proficiency but also the effective integration of low-cost technologies into the broader defense strategy.
These operations significantly degrade russian military capabilities in the region. The elimination of artillery systems like the Grad and anti-aircraft systems reduces the enemy's ability to conduct area bombardment and defend against Ukrainian air assets. Moreover, targeting logistics and transport vehicles hampers enemy resupply efforts and troop mobility.
As Defense Express previously reported, drone pilots from the Bulava unit of the 3rd Mechanized Battalion have successfully destroyed russian Zoopark-1 radar system. The strike was carried out using FPV drones and is considered a significant tactical victory for Ukrainian forces. The footage of the operation was released on June 1 by the Khortytsia Operational-Strategic Group.
