Operators from the 1st USF Center Struck Tor-M1 in the Donetsk Region and Destroyed a Logistics Hub in the Luhansk Region

Operators of the 1st Separate Unmanned Systems Forces (USF) Center struck a Russian air defense system and a logistics hub in the temporarily occupied territory on the night of April 9.

USF Commander Robert Madyar Brovdi announced this on social media, where he also released a video of the combat operation.

The Tor-M1 air defense system was detected in the Donetsk region, where it was deployed to cover a section of the front line.

Ukrainian FP-2 strike drones, manufactured by Fire Point, were deployed to take it out. The Russians managed to shoot down the first two, but the third reached its target.

The unit specified that they had destroyed this Tor-M1 near the village of Kalchynivka.

The Commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces emphasized that this was already the ninth air defense system of the invaders destroyed in the first nine days of April.

Another target for the soldiers of the 1st Separate USF Center was a logistics hub of the Russian invading military in the Luhansk region. It was located in several buildings in the city of Perevalsk. A video released shows Ukrainian pilots striking this hub at least twice with FP-2 drones. Fires broke out, and buildings were destroyed at the impact sites.

The day before, drone operators from the Unmanned Systems Forces in the east struck enemy Buk-M3 and Tor-M2 air defense systems, as well as a ZooPark-1M radar.
