Ukraine’s Defense Forces have destroyed enemy fuel trains near Luhansk.

This was reported by the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU), which released a corresponding video, Ukrinform says.

According to the SSU, during reconnaissance operations its officers established that Russian invaders had concentrated freight trains carrying fuel at railway stations near Luhansk, intended to supply their military equipment.

After confirming the targets, their coordinates were passed to units of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. These units carried out precision strikes on the enemy targets using FP-2 drones produced by Fire Point.

As a result of the strikes, fuel tank cars were destroyed, and railway infrastructure used by Russia to supply resources to the front was significantly damaged.
