Ukrainian Drones Strike Russian Military Assets
According to Novyny.live: On the night of May 30, drones operated by the Unmanned Systems Forces targeted multiple Russian military sites. Among the hit objectives were a shadow fleet tanker, two oil depots—one located in Taganrog and another called 'Kurgannefteprodukt' in the Rostov region—and a maritime oil terminal in Feodosia. These attacks also destroyed two Russian Tu-143 aircraft and an Iskander tactical missile system. The operations were coordinated by a newly established Deep Strike Center, which enhanced their effectiveness.
