Drones Hit Telecom Operators in Occupied Donetsk and Luhansk on Two Consecutive Nights

Strikes over two nights on occupied Donetsk and Luhansk hit telecom companies that the occupation authorities built on seized Ukrainian telecom property. The attacks target Russia's communications in Donbas.

Drones struck telecom operators in the Russian-occupied Ukrainian cities of Donetsk and Luhansk in Donbas on two consecutive nights, according to Euromaidan Press. Both cities are the centres of the occupied territories.

The strikes hit companies that the occupation authorities created using Ukrainian telecom property they had seized. The attacks therefore targeted the communications infrastructure Russia relies on in Donbas.

The publication's headline describes the strikes as drones going after Russia's communications in the region. The available text gives no further details on damage, the specific operators affected or who carried out the attacks.
