Video: Due to attacks by Ukrainian drones, the occupiers are forced to escort every truck with fire support units
Mobile fire support units of the Russian military are escorting a truck fully loaded with provisions for Russian troops. In addition, weapons are reportedly located directly in the truck’s cab.
Such an escort indicates that the Russian side is attempting to strengthen the protection of the logistics routes used to deliver supplies to its units.
At the same time, the destruction or damage of large-scale transport vehicles in the rear could disrupt supplies to Russian troops. Such vehicles become particularly important targets when they are transporting significant quantities of food, ammunition, fuel, or other military supplies.
The presence of an armed escort is particularly noteworthy, as it indicates the importance of the cargo to Russian units and their attempts to protect their logistics from Ukrainian strikes.

As a reminder, the Russians have begun installing anti-drone nets and special “cages” on oil tankers and port terminals in an effort to protect them from attacks by Ukrainian drones.
In the temporarily occupied city of Feodosia in Crimea, Russian military personnel covered a local oil depot with anti-drone nets.
In addition, the Russian military has begun equipping submarines of the Pacific Fleet with anti-drone nets on a large scale.
