According to operational reports, drone crews destroyed four russian field shelters and one vehicle during the engagement. The strikes were conducted with precision, focusing on fortified positions used by russian forces to conceal personnel and equipment near the front line.

In addition to striking static targets, Ukrainian operators identified russian drone launch site. The position was promptly engaged, with Ukrainian FPV drones hitting enemy UAVs directly, disrupting russian reconnaissance and strike capabilities in the area.
Follow-up aerial reconnaissance enabled Ukrainian pilots to locate russian ammunition depot. The cache was subsequently struck by drones, resulting in a secondary detonation that indicated the destruction of stored munitions.
