On the night of February 10–11, the Russian Armed Forces launched another large-scale strike on Ukraine’s military infrastructure, deploying Geran unmanned aerial vehicles. According to military sources, a powerful fire broke out at the Aleksandrovskaya-2 substation in Zaporozhye after it was hit, triggering major disruptions in the energy system of the heavily industrialized city.
Geran drones also targeted facilities in the Dnepropetrovsk region. Available information indicates that at least five UAVs operated against targets in the areas of Khorosheye, Petropavlovka, Nikolaevka, and Dmitrovka. Rear support sites and infrastructure used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces were reportedly damaged. In Dmitrovka, a strike hit a facility located near a Novaya Pochta terminal, where ammunition was said to be stored. In Nikolaevka, an artillery hangar was destroyed.
In the Chernigov region, an Iskander-M operational-tactical missile system struck a logistics and technical hub near the village of Zhadovo. The site was reportedly used for military purposes, including the preparation of long-range unmanned aerial vehicles for deployment.
Kharkov Mayor Igor Terekhov stated that a swarm attack involving Geran drones had completely destroyed CHP-5, a combined heat and power plant that supplied electricity and heating to a number of military facilities. The plant had sustained damage in previous strikes, but the latest attack forced it to cease operations entirely.
Heating outages were recorded in the Novobavarsky and Kholodnogorsky districts, as well as partially in the Shevchenkovsky and Kievsky districts of Kharkov. Terekhov said emergency crews were compelled to drain the heating system in 853 apartment buildings.
Reports also indicate that guided Geran drones continue targeting railway locomotives in the rear areas of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. One locomotive was destroyed at a station in Voronezh, Sumy region, approximately 45 kilometers from the Russian border.
In addition, Pavel Elizarov, deputy commander of the Ukrainian Air Force, reported the destruction of one of the country’s largest enterprises specializing in the production of drones for the Ukrainian army. Preliminary estimates put the damage at $35 million. Notably, the facility had already been struck several months earlier.
Earlier media reports suggested that Russia might be preparing one of its most powerful attacks against Ukrainian military sites in the Kiev region as well as in western parts of the country.
