Ukrainian forces hit four Russian drone command posts and damaged a key supply bridge to Crimea, while details emerged regarding tactical advances near Lyman.

Ukrainian forces targeted four Russian drone command centers across occupied territories and inside Russia, including a site in Berdyansk used by Moscow's specialized Rubikon drone center.

Separately, long-range Ukrainian drones attacked a bridge crossing the Mius River along the Novorossiya highway. The route serves as a crucial logistical link connecting Russia's Rostov region to occupied southern Ukraine and Crimea.

Additional details also emerged regarding Ukrainian operations near Lyman, code-named Operation "Vivaldi." Ukrainian commanders reported that local Russian officers failed to promptly inform senior command after losing ground, giving Ukrainian assault teams critical time to secure new positions. Russian military bloggers acknowledged Ukrainian advances in the area, while Moscow's defense ministry has not commented.
