Ukraine's Mid-Range Drones Enable 'Free Hunt' Attacks on Russian Logistics 100 km Behind Front Lines
Ukraine is deploying new mid-range strike drones to attack Russian logistics and military targets in areas previously considered safe, approximately 20 to 300 kilometers behind the front lines. Operators equip drones with Starlink terminals for internet connectivity, allowing them to 'free hunt' along critical highways heavily loaded with military supplies. Ukrainian officials report that these operations have increased destruction of enemy logistics fourfold, creating a 'logistics lockdown' for the Russian army. Russia's air defenses are stretched thin, making it difficult to protect the vast rear areas. The campaign is causing psychological and practical problems for Russia, including longer delivery times for armaments to the front. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy confirmed 'serious disruptions' to Russian logistics from these deep strike capabilities.
