Russia Says Its Drone Crews Are Cutting Ukrainian Supply Routes Near Kramatorsk

The Defense Ministry credits its 'South' group's drone teams with striking Ukrainian unmanned ground vehicles and resupply trucks feeding the district.

  • The 'South' group's drone crews say they struck Ukrainian logistics lines into Kramatorsk district.
  • Strikes reportedly destroyed Ukrainian robotic ground systems ferrying ammunition and supplies to the front.
  • The Defense Ministry posted the claim to Telegram at 06:53 Moscow time on July 19.

Why it matters: Robotic systems still travel by road, so a supply route is where a machine's independence ends.
