As a reminder, during an operation against Russian logistics, Ukrainian drone operators tracked down a Mi-8 helicopter and struck it after it landed. This was reported by the corps’ press service on October 30.

Earlier, Special Operations Forces (SSO) troops carried out an ambush behind Russian lines and destroyed a vehicle belonging to the occupiers.

We would like to add that the Defense Forces struck an Iskander-M launcher.

Since the beginning of 2026, the Ukrainian military has destroyed or disabled 1,039 Russian military boats and vessels.
