Russian Air Defenses Have Collapsed. 25 Miles Behind The Front Line, 'There Is Nowhere To Hide" From Ukraine's Drones.
1st Azov Corps drones range freely over Donetsk city.
Ukrainian attack drones are now ranging freely over Donetsk city in eastern Ukraine. Once a Russian stronghold, heavily defended by surface-to-air missiles, Donetsk and the forces it shelters are now virtually defenseless against aerial attack.
On Thursday, the 1st Azov Corps claimed its drones—reportedly fixed-wing Hornet attack drones—have “control over enemy logistics near Donetsk,” 25 miles from the front line.
“Strike UAV pilots are targeting Russian logistics deep in the operational rear,” the corps stated. “Drone units maintain constant surveillance and fire control over all supply routes around Donetsk.”
“Sustained UAV activity along these routes highlights the ineffectiveness of Russian air space control,” the 1st Azov Corps pointed out.
It’s not by accident.
