Operators of Ukraine’s 422nd Separate Unmanned Systems Regiment “LUFTWAFFE” detected and struck a Russian 35N6 Kasta radar station. According to released information, the system sustained critical damage and is likely beyond repair.
The Kasta radar is designed for airspace surveillance, target coordinate detection, and identification of aerial threats. It is capable of operating under heavy electronic interference and can detect targets at ranges of up to 150 kilometers.
Border guard aerial reconnaissance operators of the “STRIX” unit destroyed a rare Russian Skat-450M UAV on the South Slobozhanskyi direction. The drone is used for deep reconnaissance and is valued at around $400,000. Its loss reduces the enemy’s ability to conduct long-range surveillance and improves protection of Ukrainian positions.
Fighters of the 59th Separate Assault Brigade “Predators of Heights” shot down a Russian Kamov Ka-52 using an FPV drone on the Pokrovsk direction. This marks the third confirmed case of a drone destroying a manned aircraft mid-air. Footage shows the helicopter crashing and burning out in a field.
Archive footage shows спецпризначенців of the HUR MOU unit “Artan” withdrawing from a combat zone. The M113 armored personnel carrier carrying the group was hit multiple times by enemy FPV drones but remained operational and evacuated personnel from the fire zone.
Units of the Ukrainian Special Operations Forces conducted a series of precision strikes targeting Russian military assets. Four radar systems were destroyed in occupied Crimea, including the 5N84A “Oborona-14”, the Nebo-U radar, and two radar stations located inside a radar dome in Yevpatoria. A command post element of a Russian marine brigade was also struck in occupied Zachativka in the Donetsk region. The destruction of these radar systems significantly weakens Russia’s ability to detect and engage aerial targets.
HUR drones struck the 98L6 “Yenisey” radar of the S-500 air defense system in occupied Crimea. Additional targets hit include a Ka-27 helicopter, a patrol ship, a fire-fighting vessel, a tugboat, a boat, and a Forpost UAV.
Zarichne. Active combat area.
Mission: deliver supplies and evacuate two wounded soldiers. The situation was extremely challenging — a blurred front line and constant enemy aerial reconnaissance.
During the operation, the enemy detected our UGV and made several attempts to strike it with FPV drones and small-arms fire. The “Termit” armor held up, and maneuvering helped avoid direct hits.
The cargo was delivered to the positions. Due to intense enemy activity, evacuating the wounded at that moment was impossible. Later, the soldiers managed to withdraw on their own.
No equipment losses. The work continues.
Explosions and fires were reported at the port of Novorossiysk following a reported overnight operation by the Security Service of Ukraine in coordination with other Defense Forces units. According to sources, SBU drones hit: – Russian military ships; – 30N6E2 guidance radar of the S-300PMU-2 “Favorit” system; – Pantsir-S2 air defense system; – Six of seven oil loading berths at the Sheskharis oil terminal. The Sheskharis terminal is one of the largest oil transshipment facilities in southern Russia. Fires at the site are ongoing.
