Massive Russian Supplies of Ammo and Drones Obliterated!

The war has entered a new phase where the contest over drones has become central to the battlefield balance. Iran’s Shahed program has provided Russia with a cheap but devastating tool for striking Ukrainian cities night after night, and Moscow has built a logistical network to funnel these systems from Iran into the heart of Russia. For Ukraine, simply shooting them down is no longer enough; the only way to reduce their impact is to dismantle the chain that makes their use possible. This shift means that the struggle is no longer just about defending airspace but about striking deep into Russian territory, targeting the sources of production, storage, and transport. It marks a transition from reactive defense to proactive offense, where the initiative lies in destroying the enemy’s capacity to launch attacks at all. Against this backdrop, Ukraine has begun to redefine the fight over drones as one of strategic reach and attrition.
