Inside a secretive Ukrainian team launching deep drone strikes at Russia

In eastern Ukraine, soldiers are using advanced drones to strike deep into Russian territory, targeting oil refineries and supply routes. These drones, developed by the Ukrainian company Fire Point, can travel up to 1,200 miles and have been instrumental in Ukraine’s strategy to isolate Crimea and disrupt Russian operations. The drone attacks have intensified since 2024, significantly impacting the ongoing conflict by damaging Russian infrastructure and challenging the Kremlin. This approach is part of Ukraine’s broader effort to defend itself and seek a favorable end to the war. The effectiveness of these drones compensates for Ukraine’s lack of cruise and ballistic missiles, highlighting their strategic importance in the conflict.
