Drones of the Third Army Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine struck enemy targets at the "Izvaryne" checkpoint, 205 km from the front line, placing all key logistics of the Russian occupiers in the temporarily occupied areas of the Luhansk region under the fire control of Ukrainian forces. This was reported by the corps, according to UNN.
"In response to the enemy's claims of the alleged total capture of the Luhansk region, we are announcing an operation to control logistical routes in the Luhansk region and Eastern Slobozhanshchyna. Luhansk, Starobilsk, Alchevsk, Brianka, Kadiivka – from now on, all of this is under the close supervision and control of the UAVs of the Third Army Corps,"
The deep raid was planned and executed by the "Z Kaifom" strike wing platoon – a battalion of unmanned systems of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade of the Third Army Corps. During the operation, the fighters destroyed and damaged armored vehicles and trucks carrying ammunition on the enemy's critically important logistical routes. The operation was developed and led by the commander of the strike UAV platoon, Hero of Ukraine Oleksandr "Skhid" Ivantsov, who in 2022 parachuted into besieged Mariupol and, after the completion of its defense, made his way back to Ukrainian-controlled territory on his own.
"Luhansk, Starobilsk, Brianka, Alchevsk – these are our native cities. From now on, they will not be a safe rear for the enemy. We, the fighters of the unmanned systems battalion of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade, officially declare: there are no more safe places for the occupiers in the Luhansk region. We will find and destroy you everywhere – even at the 'Izvaryne' checkpoint and other sections of the border,"
It is noted that the entire crew that carried out the strikes on targets at the border consists exclusively of natives of the Luhansk region, as does a significant part of the unit. Today, they are liberating their home using the most modern technologies.
