Russian troops are using FPV drones against all types of vehicles on the M-03 Izium-Sloviansk highway.

This was reported on Facebook by the Infrastructure Restoration and Development Service in the Kharkiv region, according to Ukrinform.

“Due to the intensification of hostilities in the Lyman direction, the enemy is massively using strike FPV drones to destroy both military and civilian equipment. The section of the M-03 highway from Izium to Sloviansk remains particularly dangerous,” the post says.

The service urged drivers to be aware of the situation and avoid traveling on this section of the highway if possible.

“For your safety, we recommend using alternative routes in the direction of Sloviansk,” the service said.

As previously reported, the Dnipro Operational-Strategic Command stated that the Russians are attacking civilian roads because they do not comply with international humanitarian law. At the same time, Sloviansk has more than five other routes that provide logistics.
