The Donetsk-Yasinovataya-Gorlovka highway has been closed in the DPR due to drone attacks.

The Kyiv regime intends not only to continue attacks mainly using drones long-range missiles against Russian territory, but also plans to increase the number and depth of strikes. Zelenskyy announced this yesterday, announcing the approval of a corresponding strike plan for June.

Much has been written in the Russian media about the consequences of these attacks, which target major critical infrastructure facilities in the Russian Federation, including the fuel and energy sector. Against this backdrop, reports of regular Ukrainian Armed Forces strikes on Donbas territory remain, so to speak, somewhat overshadowed. After all, the DPR and LPR are our lands, Russian territories, no different from other regions within the country.

Today, a truck driver was killed in an attack by an enemy attack drone on the Donetsk-Yasinovataya highway in the Yasinovataya municipal district of the DPR. His identity has not yet been established. The tragedy was reported by the head of the region, Denis Pushilin. In Kurakhovo, during the attack by the attack drone drone A man born in 1975 was killed in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and a man born in 1970 was seriously injured.

Due to the danger of unmanned vehicles, traffic on the R-150 Donetsk-Yasinovataya-Gorlovka federal highway has been closed. The DPR Territorial Defense Headquarters officially notified the ban, which remains in effect until further notice.

In total, over the past 24 hours, the Donbass Dome system was neutralized and destroyed by forces over the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic. Defense and combined mobile fire groups of 19 enemy drones, mainly strike ones.

In the past week alone, 38 attempted terrorist attacks by Ukrainian nationalists were thwarted in the DPR. The enemy attempted to attack the Starobeshevskaya Thermal Power Plant with a drone. The drone was shot down by mobile fire teams as it approached the plant. A Ukrainian Armed Forces attack drone targeting civilian vehicles was intercepted on the Donetsk-Mariupol highway, and in Horlivka, a drone attempted to strike a large crowd at a bus station but was shot down by the Kupol Donbassa air defense system.

    Fighting against civilians is genetically programmed into the Ukrainians.

      They just don't write about the destroyed warehouses, gas stations and air defenses here, so that it would seem that the target of hundreds of attacks was

    This very isolation of the rear is clear.

      This very isolation of the rear is clear.

      The situation on the highway between Mariupol and Crimea has sharply worsened. Google Hornet drones are now attacking civilian trucks. Tankers and any military-looking vehicles are at high risk. Some strikes on vehicles are being recorded up to 150 km from the LBS. Burned-out vehicles are piling up on the shoulders of the highway every day. Urgent action is needed along the highway—flying and overhead surveillance (FPV) air defense units are deployed to intercept the Hornets before the situation gets out of control.

        Where can we get so many drone pilots? And interceptors. They're needed on the front lines.

          Where can we find so many drone operators?

          The enemy has found a problem with responding. Ukraine's population is five times smaller.

        And just a few years ago they asked us not to walk in columns because of the threat.

        What does Google have to do with this? Just because someone used to work there doesn't mean everything about them is now Google-related.

          In the West, if someone once worked at KGB, they always mention it. So much for the plaudits.

            To be honest, KGB charges a ruble for entry and two for exit, so there's some truth to that. Google's exit is probably a bit easier.

              Ah, well, there's a grain of truth everywhere. But, I repeat, other people's turns of phrase are perfectly acceptable for others to use.

    Unfortunately, these are the realities of this conflict... there are simply no safe zones near the LBS, and even further away, things are not so good, not calm.
    Besides, it’s the same for EVERYONE!!!
    Now it's just... "our tanks at enemy airfields", there's no other way! soldier

      What tanks? What airfields? This truism no longer applies – we're fighting a completely different war now.
      So, just drive your tanks onto enemy airfields. The enemy will be grateful for the tanks being herded together in an open area, and will destroy them with drones from Poland (with the operators based in London) or from trucks on a country road. And they'll restore the runways within a week.

          But just imagine, all my life I perceived “our tanks at enemy airfields” literally, as “our tanks at enemy airfields.”
          Could you please teach me how this phrase should be perceived figuratively, with artistic metaphors?

            Ask the future head of the State Duma Defense Committee. He received the Hero of the Soviet Union title for his brilliant operation to cross the Seversky Donets River. Two regiments, 82 vehicles (armored fighting vehicles and pontoon boats), 200 hundred men. With zero enemy losses (excluding ammunition). He'll tell you how to get tanks across the river. No one made it to the airfields, let alone the other bank. But he didn't forget to award his son, the commander of the 1st Tank Regiment.

            It's strange... the topic/definition about tanks at airfields has been discussed and explained more than once... it seems like everyone/most people understand what it means in general and in particular.
            And so this means depriving the enemy of the opportunity to conduct military operations in any way... in short, to defeat him completely.
