According to reports from Russian Telegram channels, Ukrainian drones recently attacked a convoy of the S-400 air defence system. The incident reportedly occurred while the convoy was moving near the settlement of Raevka in Russia’s Belgorod region.
The same sources claim that six-strike drones were involved in the operation. As a result of the attack, one 5P85SM2-01 launcher was reportedly destroyed along with four 48N6DM surface-to-air missiles. Another 5P85SM2-01 launcher was said to have sustained significant damage.
On the same day, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported strikes on many strategically important enemy facilities, both within Russia and on temporarily occupied territories in Ukraine. Ukrainian forces targeted the production facilities of the Afipsky oil refinery in Russia’s Krasnodar region. Explosions were observed at the site, followed by a large-scale fire. Assessments of the extent and nature of the damage are ongoing.
In addition, Ukrainian forces struck the Uryupinsk oil depot in Russia’s Volgograd region. A series of explosions and subsequent fires were reported at the site, indicating significant damage to the facility’s infrastructure.
Simultaneously, strikes were carried out against several enemy targets in temporarily occupied areas of Ukraine. In the occupied part of Donetsk region, Ukrainian forces reportedly hit a Volna-2 electronic warfare station, two command posts of different units of the 76th Air Assault Division of the Russian forces, another electronic warfare station, and a radar system identified as Imbir. In the temporarily occupied part of Zaporizhzhia region, a Tor-M2 surface-to-air missile system and an enemy laboratory involved in the development and deployment of drone systems were targeted.
Additionally, in temporarily occupied Crimea, Ukrainian forces struck two fuel storage facilities, a Kasta-2E2 radar station, and a high-value element of the S-300/S-400 air defense systems – a 96L6E radar station.
