Engineering troops of the Support Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and engineering units of other branches (the Ground Forces, Unmanned Systems Forces, and Air Assault Forces) effectively carried out combat missions throughout December.
This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
For example, in December alone, mine-explosive barriers installed by all engineering units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine destroyed 946 occupiers, 197 units of weapons and military equipment, and 74 other targets.
Engagements were carried out mainly through remote mining using unmanned aerial vehicles, ensuring high effectiveness and minimal risks for Ukrainian soldiers.
“Engineering troops prove every day that modern warfare is a war of technology. Remote mining units using drones and ground robotic systems block the occupiers’ advance routes and effectively destroy their forces and assets.
Previously, sappers were forced to manually enter dangerous areas, but today these risks are minimized — unmanned systems allow tasks to be performed faster, more accurately, and much more safely.
Every hit on enemy equipment and personnel is recorded in real time, and all confirmed targets are entered into the Delta situational awareness system, ensuring complete data reliability.
Engineering troops will continue strengthening defensive capabilities, creating new lines of engineering barriers, and inflicting losses on the enemy in cooperation with all units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine”, — the General Staff said.
