On June 2, both Russian and Ukrainian military sources reported a massive attack of Ukrainian small FPV drones on Russian military column in the Russian border Kursk region. On June 3, the Ukrainian military confirmed the successful attack with numerous videos filmed by the UAVs.
The column of at least 14 military trucks with supplies was destroyed by drone strikes near the town of Sudzha in the Kursk region near Ukrainian border. The footage confirmed that the column was first paralyzed by the strikes on the leading vehicles. Then, the last trucks came under the attack. Russian forces attempted to scatter the trucks around and hide them in the forest plantation near the road, where some of them were reached by Ukrainian drones.
According to Russian military sources, the Russian military personnel only suffered losses in several wounded servicemen.
The transfer of military equipment in large columns was one of the main reasons for Russia’s losses at the very beginning of the Special Military Operation in Ukraine, when the Russian military was ambushed and destroyed on the Ukrainian roads. The Russian military command has already accumulated a lot of experience in years of full-fledged military operations in Ukraine, but there are still losses incurred due to negligence.
