Most notably, Ukrainian strike drones managed to penetrate more than 205 kilometers deep into the Russian-occupied enclave to hit military logistics infrastructure at the Izvaryne border checkpoint. Located on the international border between Ukraine’s Luhansk region and Russia’s Rostov region, Izvaryne serves as a primary logistical artery for funneling heavy armor, fresh ammunition, and regular troops from mainland Russia directly to the Donbas frontlines. Brigadier General Andriy Biletsky, the commander of the 3rd Army Corps, framed the deep-strike campaign as a direct response to the Kremlin’s triumphalist claims. “In response to the enemy’s statements about the complete capture of the Luhansk region, we announce an operation to control logistical routes in the Luhansk region and Eastern Slobozhanshchyna,” Brigadier General Biletsky emphasized. “Luhansk, Starobilsk, Alchevsk, Bryanka, Kadiivka are now under the control of the UAVs of the Third Army Corps.”
