Ukraine Drones Destroy Russian Shahed Warehouse 1,300 KM From Frontline

Long range Ukrainian drones destroyed a Russian warehouse and logistics center used to store Shahed drones, parts and munitions. 

The site is 1,300 kilometers from the front, emphasizing the threat to Russian posed by Ukraine's increasingly effective long range capabilities - and one of the reasons why Putin is now willing to discuss a ceasefire. JL

Olga Katsimon reports in Ukraine Pravda:

Long-range drones sent by the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) attacked a logistics hub in Russia’s Republic of Tatarstan on the morning of 9 August, hitting a warehouse where ready-to-use Shahed kamikaze drones and foreign-made Shahed components were stored. The distance from the launch site to the target was about 1,300 km. "Each such successful special operation reduces the enemy's ability to wage its war of aggression against Ukraine."

Details: An SSU video shows a drone hitting the hub building in the town of Kzyl-Yul, causing a fire to break out. The distance from the launch site to the target was about 1,300 km.

The SSU emphasised that it continues to specifically destroy Russian military facilities deep in the rear and that Shahed storage facilities are legitimate targets.

Quote: "The Shahed storage facilities that the enemy uses to terrorise Ukraine every night are a legitimate military target. Each such successful special operation reduces the enemy's ability to wage its war of aggression against Ukraine."
