“The Road of Death” in Kostiantynivka: What drone warfare looks like on a high-risk section
Svobody Avenue, formerly Lomonosova Avenue until April 2024, is the main transport artery of Kostiantynivka. It is a route that is attempted to be covered with electronic warfare systems, but the enemy keeps it under constant targeting by FPV drones.
The “Khyzhak” Brigade of the Patrol Police Department published a video detailing all the risks of operating on this road.
Every trip is a 50/50 chance. Armored combat vehicles are a priority target for the enemy, so many vehicles do not return.
Logistics change on the move: travel by quad bikes, then on foot. Ammunition is delivered by unmanned ground vehicles or carried on shoulders.
This is the daily reality on this axis — a path that must be taken and survived.
