Ukrainian drone forces report 1,998 targets hit in 24h

Bottom line

Ukraine Drone Forces report hitting 1,998 targets in 24 hours, including 401 enemy drones, 13 EW/RADAR sites, and 93 vehicles.

Why it matters

The high volume of targets hit, particularly EW/RADAR sites and enemy drones, suggests a coordinated effort to degrade Russian air defense and electronic warfare capabilities while supporting ground operations.

Ukraine’s Drone Forces reported hitting 1,998 targets in a 24-hour period. The targets included 401 enemy drones (copter/wing/Shahed/Gerbera), 13 EW/RADAR sites, 10 artillery pieces, and 93 vehicles. This indicates a high tempo of drone operations and a broad targeting strategy.
