(Kramatorsk, Ukraine) – Ukrainian drone operators have successfully eliminated an entire Russian infantry assault group attempting to storm defensive positions in the Kramatorsk direction. The strike was carried out by the unmanned aerial systems unit of the Phoenix Brigade, part of Ukraine’s Defence Forces.
The Russian troops had tried to advance by taking cover behind previously destroyed armoured vehicles, hoping to cross an exposed field.
However, their movements were tracked and targeted with deadly accuracy. Using combat drones, the Phoenix unit delivered a swift and precise aerial attack that left no survivors among the advancing enemy force.
In the face of Russia’s attempt to overwhelm Ukrainian defenders, unmanned systems are proving not only effective but essential. While conventional warfare continues on multiple fronts, precision drone strikes are turning the tide in key areas like Kramatorsk, where mobility and surprise once gave Russian troops an edge. Now, with the sky under constant surveillance, every move they make is exposed.
The Phoenix Brigade remains one of the key shield units defending Ukraine’s eastern border. Their operations continue to be supported by Ukrainian citizens and international allies through targeted fundraising efforts for vital drone and electronic warfare equipment.
One such campaign aims to raise 5 million Ukrainian hryvnia (approximately £97,500 GBP) to enhance their capabilities further and maintain this essential edge over Russian invaders.
