The equipment used included the Fire Point system and the 'Behemoth' unmanned aerial vehicle. Operation commander Oleksandr Nastenko stated that

Route Control and Ongoing Operations

Operators from the 3rd Special Operations Forces Regiment established control over a section of the Melitopol–Chongar route. Additionally, operators from the 413th 'Raid' Regiment struck two Russian military locomotives, highlighting continued Ukrainian force activity in the area.

This attack is part of a broader Ukrainian strategy to tighten control over key transport corridors linking occupied territories with Russia.
