In September 2026, the Ukrainian Defense Forces continued to strike Russian military facilities in the operational rear. According to the published data of the General Staff, during the month, more than 30 air defense, radar and electronic warfare facilities, more than 40 control points, as well as more than 50 warehouses and logistics facilities were hit.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This<\/span> was reported<\/span><\/a> by<\/span> the Ministry of<\/span> Defense<\/span> of Ukraine.<\/span><\/p>\n

In<\/span> addition,<\/span> the Ukrainian<\/span> military<\/span> struck<\/span> more than<\/span> 20<\/span> infrastructure<\/span> facilities<\/span> related<\/span> to<\/span> the storage,<\/span> training,<\/span> production<\/span> , and<\/span> use<\/span> of drones.<\/span> The<\/span> Ministry of Defense<\/span> notes<\/span> that<\/span> such<\/span> strikes<\/span> weaken<\/span> the combat<\/span> capabilities<\/span> of the Russian<\/span> army,<\/span> disrupt<\/span> the management<\/span> of units<\/span> , and<\/span> complicate<\/span> the supply<\/span> of troops.<\/span><\/p>\n

Which<\/span> Russian<\/span> air defense<\/span> systems<\/span> were hit?<\/span><\/h3>\n

One<\/span> of<\/span> the priorities<\/span> of the Ukrainian<\/span> military<\/span> remains<\/span> the destruction<\/span> or<\/span> damage<\/span> of Russian<\/span> air<\/span> defense,<\/span> radar,<\/span> and<\/span> electronic warfare systems<\/span> .<\/span><\/p>\n

In<\/span> September<\/span> , the Defense<\/span> Forces<\/span> struck<\/span> two<\/span> launchers<\/span> of<\/span> the S-400<\/span> anti-aircraft missile<\/span> system<\/span> in<\/span> the Bryansk<\/span> region<\/span> of the Russian Federation,<\/span> a multifunctional<\/span> radar<\/span> station<\/span> 92N6<\/span> from<\/span> the S-400<\/span> warehouse<\/span> in<\/span> Sochi,<\/span> a Buk-M3<\/span> complex<\/span> in<\/span> Zaporizhia,<\/span> as<\/span> well as<\/span> the Pantsir-S1<\/span> and<\/span> Pantsir-S2<\/span> anti-<\/span> aircraft missile and gun<\/span> systems<\/span> .<\/p>\n

The Russian<\/span> radar<\/span> stations “<\/span> Nebo-U”, “<\/span> Nebo-SV”, “<\/span> Podlyot”, “<\/span> Kasta”,<\/span> P-18<\/span> and<\/span> other<\/span> radar<\/span> facilities<\/span> were<\/span> also<\/span> hit<\/span> .<\/span><\/p>\n

Among<\/span> the affected<\/span> electronic<\/span> warfare<\/span> and<\/span> technical<\/span> intelligence<\/span> facilities<\/span> are<\/span> the Krasukha-4<\/span> mobile<\/span> electronic warfare<\/span> station<\/span> and<\/span> the Grenadier<\/span> automated<\/span> technical<\/span> intelligence<\/span> posts<\/span> .<\/p>\n

The<\/span> Ministry of Defense<\/span> emphasizes<\/span> that<\/span> the<\/span> destruction<\/span> of these<\/span> systems<\/span> limits<\/span> the ability<\/span> of Russian<\/span> troops<\/span> to control<\/span> airspace<\/span> and<\/span> counter<\/span> Ukrainian<\/span> weapons<\/span> of destruction.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ukrainian<\/span> military<\/span> hit<\/span> Russian<\/span> drones<\/span> ‘<\/span> infrastructure<\/span><\/h3>\n

During<\/span> the month,<\/span> the Defense<\/span> Forces<\/span> repeatedly<\/span> attacked<\/span> the storage,<\/span> training<\/span> , and<\/span> launch<\/span> sites<\/span> of Geranium<\/span> and<\/span> Gerbera<\/span> type<\/span> strike<\/span> drones<\/span> in<\/span> the Donetsk region<\/span> ,<\/span> as<\/span> well as<\/span> in<\/span> other<\/span> temporarily<\/span> occupied<\/span> territories<\/span> and<\/span> in<\/span> Russia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dozens of<\/span> drone control<\/span> points<\/span> ,<\/span> ground<\/span> repeaters<\/span> ,<\/span> and<\/span> other<\/span> elements<\/span> of the UAV control<\/span> system<\/span> were<\/span> hit<\/span> .<\/span><\/p>\n

In particular,<\/span> in<\/span> Petropavlivka<\/span> in<\/span> Luhansk Oblast,<\/span> the training<\/span> center<\/span> for drone<\/span> operators<\/span> of the “<\/span> Akhmat”<\/span> unit was hit<\/span> , in<\/span> Seversko-Donetsk<\/span> –<\/span> a place<\/span> of UAV production<\/span> ,<\/span> and<\/span> near<\/span> the Saki<\/span> airfield<\/span> in<\/span> occupied<\/span> Crimea<\/span> –<\/span> a ground<\/span> control<\/span> station<\/span> for reconnaissance and strike<\/span> drones “<\/span> Orion”.<\/span><\/p>\n

The destruction<\/span> of this<\/span> infrastructure<\/span> should<\/span> reduce<\/span> the Russian<\/span> military’s<\/span> ability<\/span> to use<\/span> drones<\/span> for<\/span> reconnaissance<\/span> and<\/span> attacks<\/span> in<\/span> Ukraine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Strikes<\/span> on<\/span> warehouses<\/span> and<\/span> military<\/span> logistics<\/span> of the Russian Federation<\/span><\/h3>\n

In<\/span> September,<\/span> Ukrainian<\/span> military<\/span> forces<\/span> attacked<\/span> ammunition,<\/span> logistics,<\/span> and<\/span> fuel<\/span> depots,<\/span> repair<\/span> bases<\/span> ,<\/span> and<\/span> storage<\/span> sites<\/span> for weapons<\/span> and<\/span> military<\/span> equipment.<\/span><\/p>\n

In total<\/span> ,<\/span> more than<\/span> 50<\/span> such<\/span> facilities<\/span> were hit<\/span> in<\/span> the<\/span> temporarily<\/span> occupied<\/span> territories<\/span> of Ukraine<\/span> and<\/span> in<\/span> the border<\/span> regions<\/span> of Russia.<\/span><\/p>\n

In<\/span> addition,<\/span> near<\/span> Vladyslavivka<\/span> in<\/span> occupied<\/span> Crimea,<\/span> a railway<\/span> bridge<\/span> over<\/span> the North Crimean<\/span> Canal,<\/span> which<\/span> Russian<\/span> troops<\/span> used<\/span> for<\/span> military<\/span> transportation,<\/span> was hit<\/span> .<\/p>\n

The<\/span> Ministry of Defense<\/span> notes<\/span> that<\/span> strikes<\/span> on<\/span> warehouses,<\/span> repair<\/span> bases<\/span> , and<\/span> other<\/span> logistics<\/span> facilities<\/span> make it difficult<\/span> to provide support<\/span> to Russian<\/span> units<\/span> on<\/span> the front line.<\/span><\/p>\n

Russian<\/span> planes,<\/span> helicopters<\/span> and<\/span> boats<\/span> were hit<\/span><\/h3>\n

Other<\/span> military<\/span> targets<\/span> attacked<\/span> in<\/span> September<\/span> included<\/span> the Russian<\/span> air force,<\/span> navy<\/span> ,<\/span> and<\/span> defense<\/span> industry<\/span> .<\/span><\/p>\n

A Su-24<\/span> aircraft<\/span> was hit<\/span> at<\/span> the Saki<\/span> airfield<\/span> in<\/span> occupied<\/span> Crimea<\/span> . Also,<\/span> during<\/span> the month,<\/span> the destruction of<\/span> a Russian<\/span> MiG-29<\/span> aircraft<\/span> and<\/span> a Ka-27<\/span> helicopter<\/span> was confirmed<\/span> .<\/p>\n

In<\/span> Sevastopol,<\/span> the<\/span> BK-16<\/span> landing<\/span> craft<\/span> and<\/span> the Project<\/span> 12150 high-speed<\/span> patrol<\/span> boat<\/span> “<\/span> Mongoose”<\/span> were hit<\/span> .<\/span><\/p>\n

In<\/span> Snizhne,<\/span> Donetsk Oblast,<\/span> Ukrainian<\/span> military<\/span> personnel<\/span> struck<\/span> a machine-building<\/span> plant<\/span> that<\/span> the Russian<\/span> defense<\/span> industry<\/span> uses<\/span> to<\/span> produce<\/span> military<\/span> products<\/span> .<\/span><\/p>\n

It was previously<\/span> reported<\/span> that<\/span> the Ministry<\/span> of Defense<\/span> of Ukraine<\/span> has codified<\/span> and<\/span> approved<\/span> 650<\/span> unmanned<\/span> aerial<\/span> systems<\/span> for<\/span> use<\/span> in<\/span> the Defense<\/span> Forces<\/span> since<\/span> the beginning<\/span> of<\/span> 2026.<\/span><\/a> Most<\/span> of<\/span> them<\/span> are manufactured<\/span> by Ukrainian<\/span> companies.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
