Ukrainian drones strike Russian train carrying fuel and ammunition in occupied Luhansk region
Ukrainian drones attacked and hit a Russian train transporting fuel and ammunition for the occupying army, according to the Unmanned Systems Forces of Ukraine.
The railway convoy was used to supply Russian troops on the front line. The 414th Unmanned Systems Brigade “Birds of Magyar” carried out the strike using several drones.
The hit on the train was also confirmed by Russian sources on social media. Telegram channels reported that the attack took place in the so-called “Sverdlovsk municipal district” near the city of Dovzhansk in occupied Luhansk region.
According to Russian reports, the train driver and his assistant were injured in the attack. Drones damaged fuel tank cars and the train itself.
Similar operations have been conducted before. Last year, operators from the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence intercepted a Russian train carrying fuel for military equipment.
Earlier, Ukrainian forces carried out a large-scale operation targeting enemy military facilities in occupied territories and border areas of Russia.
Ukrainian forces also recently destroyed four Russian self-propelled air defence systems in Zaporizhzhia and Khersonregions.
In addition, the Ukrainian Navy shot down a Russian Ka-27 helicopter over the Black Sea.
