Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces strike Russian 64th Brigade positions, which committed Bucha atrocities

Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces struck positions of Russia's 64th Separate Motor Rifle Brigade, a unit implicated in the 2022 Bucha atrocities, on the night of 29-30 May, according to Robert 'Magyar' Brovdi, Commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces.

Drone operators from the 414th Magyar's Birds Separate Brigade and the 413th Raid Separate Regiment carried out the operation, coordinated by the newly created Deep Strike Centre of the Unmanned Systems Forces. Targets were at distances of 70 km and 100 km from the front line. A total of 21 confirmed effective hits were recorded: 13 and 8 respectively.

Operational data confirm losses among the 64th Brigade in Prymorskyi Posad: 31 personnel, including 9 killed, 9 wounded and 13 missing. Brovdi said that the actual figures are highly likely to be significantly higher. Information on losses at Russia's Triokhizbenka training ground of the 3rd Army is being gathered.

Specific targets included: the 3rd Army's Triokhizbenka training ground near the settlement of Kriakivka in temporarily occupied Luhansk Oblast, struck by drone operators from the 9th Kairos Battalion of the 414th Brigade, 70 km from the front line; the 36th Army training ground used by the 64th Brigade at Prymorskyi Posad in temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia Oblast, struck by drone operators from the 413th Raid Separate Regiment, 100 km from the front line; a gas storage facility in Russian-occupied Yenakiieve, Donetsk Oblast, attacked by drone operators from the 20th Separate Brigade K-2; and Russian logistics in temporarily occupied Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, struck by Detachment 13 of the 414th Brigade.
