“Official: Luhansk Oblast is now under the control of Third Army Corps drones!” — we read in the official announcement on social media.
“Soldiers of the Unmanned Systems Battalion of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade dealt blows to the occupiers' logistics in the temporarily occupied Luhansk Oblast, reaching as far as the Izvaryne checkpoint – more than 205 km into the territory controlled by the enemy,” the Ukrainians add.
Ukrainian drones took control of the Luhansk region
As we read, during the operation, Ukrainian pilots managed to destroy Russian armored vehicles and ammunition warehouses. The entire action was planned by the commander of the strike drone platoon, Oleksandr Ivantsov “Vostok”. In 2022, he was to take part in the defense of Mariupol, for which he was awarded the title of Hero of Ukraine.
Now the commander of the 3rd Army Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, General Andriy Biletsky, has announced the launch of an operation aimed at taking control of logistic routes in the Luhansk region and the eastern Slobozhan region. “Lughansk, Starobielsk, Alchevsk, Brianka, Kadyevka – are now under the control of unmanned aerial vehicles of the Third Army Corps,” we read.
