The Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed a pilot training facility belonging to the Russian Academy of Missile and Artillery Sciences
The Unmanned Systems Forces, in coordination with other units of the Defense Forces and the Security Service of Ukraine, carried out a successful strike on a Russian facility where UAV crews were being trained, munitions were being manufactured, and equipment was being repaired.
This was reported by the press service of the Unmanned Systems Forces.
As a result of the operation, the school’s commander—a lieutenant colonel with the call sign “Bury”—was eliminated, and the enemy’s total irreplaceable manpower losses amounted to at least 65 people. In addition, the strike destroyed production and repair facilities, munitions, components for building drones, as well as four Russian “Tiger” armored vehicles that were undergoing repairs.
In Russia, following the drone attack, fires broke out at the Lukoil-Nizhegorodnefteorgsintez oil refinery in the city of Kstovo, Nizhny Novgorod Oblast, and on the grounds of the Azot chemical plant in Nevinnomyssk, Stavropol Krai.
On the night of May 20, a series of explosions rocked the Stavropol Krai in Russia, followed by reports of damage to the Nevinnomyssk Azot plant. The plant is one of the largest producers of ammonia and ammonium nitrate in the Russian Federation. Information regarding the extent of the damage and the consequences of the attack is being clarified.
