Russian airstrikes devastate Ukrainian drone hubs and oil facilities

Russian forces have carried out a series of airstrikes in Ukraine, targeting military and infrastructure sites. Footage released by the Russian Aerospace Forces shows attacks in the Sumy region and the Donetsk People's Republic. Among the reported damage was the destruction of a drone warehouse and an oil-processing facility.

A FAB-3000 bomb struck a Ukrainian drone warehouse in Kostyantynivka, collapsing the building. The structure housed drone operators, storage units, and repeater equipment, all of which were destroyed in the attack.

In a separate strike, Russian forces used FAB-500 glide bombs to hit the base of Ukraine's 105th Territorial Defense Brigade in Velyka Pysarivka. The same operation targeted an oil-processing plant, leaving debris scattered across the site.

An American-made Reaper drone was also downed during the strikes. Russian military footage later showed the aftermath of the attacks, including damaged facilities and wreckage.

The strikes resulted in the destruction of military and logistical assets, including drones, operator facilities, and infrastructure. Russian forces have not provided verified casualty figures, and independent confirmation of the extent of damage remains limited.
