From late on October 11 into the early hours of the following morning, Russian forces carried out a series of strikes against Ukrainian military and energy infrastructure deep in the rear. The attacks involved Su-34 aircraft armed with Kh-31P guided missiles as well as Geran-2 and Geran-3 strike drones.

One of the targets was located in Solenoe, Dnepropetrovsk Region, where a Kh-31P missile destroyed a mobile radar system of Western manufacture.

In Novoiversk, Donetsk People’s Republic, a Geran-2 drone hit a substation belonging to the enterprise Kramatorsk High-Voltage Power Lines, an attack intended to complicate logistics for Ukrainian forces.

In Shevchenkovo, Kharkov Region, three Geran-2 drones struck the old building of Lyceum No. 1, which Ukrainian troops were using to house a security company of the 582nd Battalion. The impact caused the third floor to collapse and triggered a fire covering about 150 square meters.

In Chaplino, Dnepropetrovsk Region, three Geran-2 drones hit areas where units of the 31st Separate Mechanized and 37th Marine Brigades were deployed.

In Novoselovka, Odessa Region, several Geran-2 drones struck the Ananyev gas metering station, damaging a section of pipeline and filter-reduction equipment.

Around 6 a.m. on October 12, Russian forces targeted Pavlograd in Dnepropetrovsk Region. A precision strike on the Pavlogradskaya substation damaged an autotransformer, causing partial depressurization of the tank and the burning of several tons of oil.
