How Ukraine is using drones to disrupt Russian supply lines and fuel convoys

How Ukraine is using drones to disrupt Russian supply lines and fuel convoys

Published by Parlour News

Ukraine’s military has opened a new front in its war against Russia, not through a major ground offensive, but by systematically targeting the logistics network that keeps Russian troops supplied.

According to a CNN analysis of around 150 geolocated strikes against Russian fuel tankers, trucks and other vehicles, the campaign has intensified significantly since early May. The strikes, documented by open-source researchers and the platform’s OSINT team, are concentrated across southern Ukraine and occupied Crimea, though analysts believe many more attacks have gone unrecorded. pic.twitter.com/CARe4Da9v2 — Defense of Ukraine (@DefenceU) June 18, 2026 The effort reflects a shift in Ukrainian strategy.
