The Ukrainian defense forces have bombed fuel supply trains in the temporarily occupied part of Luhansk oblast and a Russian drone Inokhodets at Kirovsk airfield in Crimea.

According to Ukrinform, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces announced this on Facebook.

On Friday, April 3, and during the night of April 3 to 4, the Ukrainian defense forces bombed fuel supply trains in the areas of Stakhanov and Stanytsia Luhanska in Luhansk oblast.

According to the General Staff, the damage caused to the aforementioned facilities complicates the fuel and lubricant supply for the Russian armed forces.

Furthermore, it was determined that during the recent attack on a drone storage site at Kirovsk airfield (temporarily occupied Crimea), an Inokhodets drone was destroyed and three other similar, expensive drones were damaged.

The Inokhodets drone (export name Orion) is a Russian medium-range unmanned aerial system designed for reconnaissance and ground strike missions.

This drone can operate up to 250 km away, stay in flight for up to 24 hours, fly at a maximum altitude of 7.5 km, and carry a payload of 200 kg of ammunition.

The Russians use these drones mainly for reconnaissance, patrols, and anti-naval drone operations.

The estimated cost of a system is several million dollars.
