Ukrainian forces deployed 28 ground robotic systems in an attack against Russian positions near Lyman in Donetsk Oblast, according to Russian Telegram channels cited by defence outlet Defense Express. Russian sources claimed their forces repelled the attack, though ArmyWeb.cz noted the claims have not been independently verified.
The operation reportedly involved equipment from the Ukrainian 3rd Army Corps. Two of the robotic systems carried Mk 19 automatic grenade launchers to provide fire support against personnel and defensive positions, 18 platforms each carried two AT4 anti-tank weapons, and eight were configured as explosive kamikaze drones.
According to the Russian reports, the deployment operated as a combined robotic assault group to suppress defending troops and breach fortified positions without exposing infantry to direct fire.
