Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces (SBS) hit Russian high-value targets across occupied Donetsk Oblast on 24 May, the agency said. Separate strikes targeted Russia's military logistics in the occupied part of Zaporizhzhia Oblast. The Ukrainian deep-strike campaign against Russian air defense and logistics has accelerated through May.
Big single-day haul: S-300 launcher, rare radar, recon drone
The 414th "Madyar's Birds" brigade struck an S-300 surface-to-air missile launcher near Lazarivka and a 9S19 "Imbir" radar near Stretenka. The 9S19 is a rare, high-value sector-surveying radar from the S-300V air defense system. It is designed to detect ballistic missiles and aircraft at long range.
The same brigade destroyed a Merlin-VR reconnaissance drone, one of the largest in Russia's army. It also hit an ammunition and logistics depot in Novoyanysol and a field artillery depot in Kremenivka.
Fuel tank cars hit in Debaltseve, Donetsk's largest rail hub
The 1st Separate Center struck railway fuel tank cars in Debaltseve. The city is the largest rail hub in Donetsk Oblast.
The same unit also hit a temporary deployment and maintenance point of Russia's 40th Marine Brigade in Mykilske the day before.
Logistics, a depot, and a truck across the front
The 413th "Reid" regiment hit a Russian logistical support depot in Dokuchaievsk.
The 412th "Nemesis" brigade struck Russian military trucks in occupied Zaporizhzhia Oblast.
