LUGANSK, March 26. /TASS/. Ukrainian armed units have recently nearly doubled their use of drones near Belogorovka in the Lugansk People's Republic, deploying over 200 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) per day in an attempt to disrupt Russia's advance in the area, military expert Andrey Marochko told TASS.
According to Marochko, Russian troops continue to gradually liberate territory near Belogorovka in the LPR, despite considerable resistance from the Ukrainian army.
"Small but consistent advances by Russia's Armed Forces west of the settlement have forced the Ukrainian command to redeploy additional UAV units to the area. Recently, the number of enemy drones in the sky has nearly doubled. Our air defense forces are now detecting the use of more than 200 different drones by Ukrainian militants each day," he said.
On March 13, Marochko told TASS that Russian forces had seized approximately 500 meters of the LPR administrative border near Belogorovka during the fighting.
