Ukraine’s drones strike a devastating blow to Russia’s Iranian-made weapons

Ukraine launched a series of drone strikes targeting key Russian ammunition depots, including a warehouse in Bryansk and a facility containing 400 Iranian-made Shahed drones , according to Ukraine’s military. The Shahed drones, a key weapon in Russia’s attacks on Ukrainian cities, account for nearly 5% of those deployed since the war began.

The strikes are part of Ukraine’s broader effort to disrupt Russia’s supply lines by targeting critical stockpiles before they can be used. Video footage shows explosions at the depots, though Russia’s defense ministry claims to have shot down 47 Ukrainian drones overnight, including 24 in the Bryansk region.

In addition to the Shahed depot, Ukraine also struck a facility storing North Korean missiles and artillery shells . The attacks have reportedly caused significant logistical problems for Russia’s forces, potentially slowing their operations. Western intelligence suggests these strikes could deepen Russia’s supply shortages.

Ukraine’s newly formed Unmanned Systems Forces led the drone attacks, highlighting the growing importance of drone warfare in the conflict. As Russia faces mounting supply challenges, Ukraine’s continued strikes on key depots aim to weaken Moscow’s war effort as winter approaches.
