According to Novyny.live: On June 12, 2023, Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces launched strikes on the Russian 'Vostochny' training ground in the Zaporizhzhia region, destroying Russian military units. The attacks specifically targeted:

Additionally, during the operation, a Tor-M2 surface-to-air missile system was destroyed near Vershyna Druha, and a ZU-23 anti-aircraft gun along with a MANPADS crew was eliminated in the Novopetrivka area. Strikes were also recorded against a drone unit command post near Novoandriivka in Donetsk region, a technical landing point in Luhansk region, and the Afipsky oil refinery in Russia's Krasnodar Krai. A significant achievement was the destruction of a large ammunition depot in the Belgorod region.

This operation demonstrates the intensified actions of Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces and their ability to deliver substantial blows to enemy military targets.

The operation highlights the growing role of drone technology in modern warfare and the Ukrainian military's capacity to adapt to new challenges in the conflict.

Destroying key Russian military assets could impact the strategic situation on the front line and limit the enemy's capabilities in future battles. Amid active combat operations, such strikes may boost the morale of Ukrainian forces while also serving as a warning to Russian command about the vulnerability of their positions.
