Service members of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine carried out a large-scale, coordinated operation, striking 19 energy infrastructure facilities in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.

This was reported by Robert Brovdi, commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces, whose call sign is “Madyar.”

Attack drones struck a network of key power substations in five occupied regions of Ukraine:

  • Crimea: a massive strike targeted the “Darsan” (Yalta), “Solyana” (Kerch), “Kapsel” (Sudak), and “Azovska” (Staryi Krym) substations. Facilities in the settlements of Luchyste, Morske, Pryvitne, Shchebetovka (“Koktebel”), Yedy-Kuyu (“Lenino”), Zelenyi Yar (“Nasosna–3”), and Ponizivka (“Zorya”).
  • Donetsk Oblast: Precision strikes on energy facilities in Makiivka and the village of Zemlyanki have been confirmed.
  • Luhansk Oblast: Power substations in the settlements of Bezginove, Bila Hora, and Denezhnykove have lost power.
  • Zaporizhzhia and Kherson Regions: Damage to power substations was recorded in Berdiansk and Hanivka in the Zaporizhzhia region, as well as at a substation in Shyroke in the Kherson region.

As a reminder, on the night of July 20, operators of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ Unmanned Systems Forces destroyed a “Tor-M2” air defense system and struck a number of enemy radar stations and a “Buk-M1” air defense system.

In addition, on the night of July 20, the USF also destroyed another 7 vessels of the Russian Federation’s shadow fleet and 7 substations in Crimea and the temporarily occupied territories.
