Can't cover the air defense: Ukrainian drones hit the unexpected purposes in the Russian Federation - the media (map)

According to experts, the Armed Forces resort to the "thousands of cuts" strategy, which in the long run can cause significant damage to the logistics of Russian troops. On the night of May 2, the Dron-Kamikadze Defense Forces of Ukraine probably struck traction and transformer substations on railway tracks in the Orel and Kursk regions of the Russian Federation. About it writes Russian online edition Baza. It is reported that at about 23.

00, the traction substations in the areas of Railway Stations of Dunyri and Sloboda in the Kursk region, and after 15 minutes, were shocked and transformer substations on the Kniivka-Glazunivka route in Kursk region. As a result, the Snakes and Glazunovka stations occurred an emergency shutdown of power supply.

Osint analytics from the Eye Mountain Community indicated that all the drones were beaten by the main railway branch of Moscow-Oryol-Belgorod, which was transported by military ammunition for the Russian military. For their part, Defense Express military portal experts noted that the very fact of using the UAV for the defeat of the railway in the Russian Federation looks "even more interesting and even unexpected" than strikes in Russian oil refining plants (NSAs).

According to them, traction or transformer substations are smaller in size than, for example, the installation of primary oil processing. Therefore, their lesion requires high accuracy of impact. The publication also emphasized that strokes on the stations mentioned are more effective in terms of harm to the logistics of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation than simply damage to the railway.

The construction of the post -Soviet railways allows you to replace the damaged part of the track and restore movement within an hour. In this case, the disruption of the power supply and alarm system, which requires traction and transformer stations, leads to a longer stop of train movement.

In addition, the authors of the publication noted that the distance between the substations on the railways in the Russian Federation is a maximum of 15-50 kilometers, so the Russians will not physically cover so much of their infrastructure. As a result, the "thousand cuts" strategy in the long run can cause significant damage to the lollistics of the invaders.

We will remind, on April 3 the spokesman of the Navy of the Armed Forces Dmitry Pletenchuk informed that the occupiers continue the construction of the railway in the occupied territories, in particular it was about the route Rostov-on-Don-Mariupol-Crimea. According to him, this route can result in more vulnerable than the Crimean bridge.
