Previous strikes on satellite communication stations

On September 10, 2025, Ukrainian drones struck the RT-70 radio telescope of the Space Communications Center in Crimea.

On June 22, the Ukrainian Defense Forces struck the Dubna and Vladimir Space Communications Centers.

The facility in Dubna is the largest ground-based satellite communications complex in Russia. The center is used for military communications and to control satellite transponders employed by the Russian Ministry of Defense for communications, reconnaissance, and troop coordination.

The systematic UAV attacks on Russian space communications centers are linked to Russia’s development of a satellite communications system similar to Starlink, called Rassvet.
