Ukrainian drone operators have carried out a coordinated series of strikes against russian air defense, communications, and command infrastructure across several sectors of the front.
The footage, released by the Unmanned Systems Forces, shows multiple precision strikes conducted by specialized drone units operating in coordination with the Deep Strike Center. The attacks targeted some of the russian military's most important battlefield support systems in Luhansk, Donetsk, and Zaporizhzhia regions.

In the Luhansk direction, operators from the Rarog 427th Brigade reportedly struck russian Tor surface-to-air missile system. The Tor family remains one of Moscow's primary short-range tactical air defense assets, designed to intercept drones, aircraft, cruise missiles, and guided munitions near frontline positions.
Meanwhile, in Donetsk region, fighters from the 414th Brigade targeted the Redut-2US communications unit. The system is used by russian forces to establish protected multi-channel communication lines between units, making it a critical element for maintaining battlefield coordination and command resilience under combat conditions.
Another strike in the Donetsk sector was conducted by operators from the 1st Separate Center, who reportedly hit the command post of russian Kaira UAV unit. Such command centers are essential for coordinating reconnaissance and attack drone missions, which have become increasingly important in modern combat operations.
Further south, in Zaporizhzhia region, pilots from the Nemesis 412th Brigade struck an enemy communications node. Damage to these systems can significantly complicate troop coordination, slow decision-making cycles, and reduce the effectiveness of artillery and drone operations across the battlefield.
As Defense Express previously reported, Ukrainian operators from the Phoenix border guard unit destroyed rare russian Merlin-VR reconnaissance UAV, one of the most expensive drones in enemy service, during operations in the east.
