MOSCOW, December 23. /TASS/. Russian reconnaissance drones are penetrating deep behind Ukrainian army lines near Kramatorsk and Slavyansk in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) and successfully detecting military equipment hidden by the enemy, military expert Vitaly Kiselev reported.
"Seversk is a foothold that will enable us to destroy the enemy’s command points and defense systems in the Kramatorsk and Slavyansk directions. Especially since our reconnaissance drone operators are already penetrating far beyond these settlements (Kramatorsk and Slavyansk - TASS), identifying equipment in forested areas and taking under control the roads leading to them, disrupting logistics. Our guys with unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) operators are currently disrupting logistics day and night," he said on the Soloviev Live TV channel.
Kiselev added that the weather – thick fog – is also helping Russian forces operate in these areas. "Seversk is located at dominating heights, which is a major advantage for us not only from a defense standpoint, as we can also look down at Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, so to speak. We're moving forward, destroying the enemy. We're getting closer to these settlements every day. Therefore, entering these settlements is only a matter of time," the military expert said.
