Russia's Oil Burns: 13 Airports Shut Down - Jason Jay Smart

[TexasTowelie]

Ukraine’s $500 FPV drones are dismantling Russian operations across Donetsk Oblast, delivering a shocking blow to Moscow's logistical and armored capabilities. Jason Jay Smart’s exclusive frontline report details how cheap precision warfare is fundamentally changing the conflict, revealing the stark imbalance between drone cost and the destruction of multi-million dollar Russian assets.

This report captures the direct impact of 110 FPV drones delivered to Ukraine's elite 501st Marine Battalion. These operators now establish continuous interdiction belts near Pokrovsk, Dobropillia, Kurakhove, and along the Bakhmut axis. The video shows frontline teams systematically disabling Russian armor and transport on roads previously considered safe, illustrating why Russian daylight convoys are rapidly shrinking across Donbas.

The footage reveals Ukraine’s ingenious repair pipelines and rigorous training cycles that ensure constant drone aerial presence. It demonstrates precise target prioritization and critical artillery coordination, detailing how damaged Russian assets are finished with lethal efficiency. This coverage also examines the role of electronic countermeasures, forcing Russia to drastically slow its operational tempo and exposing severe vulnerabilities in Russian military logistics.

The current situation on the Donetsk front is defined by this sustained drone pressure. Russian forces face layered threats, with recovery crews operating under continuous interdiction. This new era of cheap precision has reshaped battlefield tempo, defining the cost imbalance that now governs modern warfare and impacting every aspect of ground operations from supply routes to troop movements.
