Quote: "Over the course of two nights, Lasar's strike crews deployed 800 drones. As a result, 231 enemy artillery pieces were hit, 171 of them destroyed. That is equivalent to 10 to 14 artillery battalions, or around three brigades.

The operation was prepared in several stages. In collaboration with our brothers-in-arms from neighbouring units, our analysts gathered a large amount of intelligence on the locations of the enemy's artillery."

Details: Based on this intelligence, the unit planned strike drone missions using a specially developed munition.

The munition was designed by the group's engineers to effectively destroy howitzers, primarily by disabling their barrels. Lasar's Group carried out strikes in key combat areas along the entire front.
