💥 USF hit a company producing warheads for Shahed
Operators of the 14th separate UAV regiment of the Unmanned Systems Forces struck JSC “FNVC “Research Institute of Applied Chemistry”” in the city of Sergiyev Posad, Moscow Region – more than 500 km from the state border of Ukraine.
This company is part of the state corporation “Rostec” and is under international sanctions due to participation in Russian military programs. It specializes in the development and production of more than 500 types of special pyrotechnic devices for missile, rocket-space and artillery systems. In particular, it manufactures thermobaric warheads for Shahed-type kamikaze drones.
A UAV hit was recorded in the area of the target, which caused a fire and heavy smoke. It is also known that an electrical substation that provided power to the facility was damaged. #DeepStrike results are being finalized.

Zelensky, Trump hold phone call after Putin pledges to continue war in Ukraine

I agree, and they have the whole cart to themselves, so it's a nice opportunity to practice without disturbing anyone.
A source from VChK-OGPU shared details of the explosion that killed Zaur Gurtsiev, a veteran of the “special military operation” and first deputy mayor of Stavropol. It was established that Gurtsiev had met Nikita Penkov through a gay dating platform.
Investigators found explicit correspondence between the two, including the exchange of nude photos. Gurtsiev had invited his new acquaintance for private meetings several times, but the encounters were postponed due to his business trips — until the night of the incident.
Gurtsiev and Penkov had agreed on a meeting place in advance. As soon as they got close, an explosion occurred. Preliminary data suggests the IED was hidden in a body bag worn by Nikita Penkov. The device contained shrapnel — specifically, pellets used in pneumatic weapons.
According to early findings, Penkov had allegedly been hired by unknown individuals to collect compromising material on Gurtsiev and was provided with “special equipment” capable of transmitting video. The IED had been built into this device.
Only two helicopters were confirmed to be destroyed and I wouldn't expect more than 5 crew each, so there was likely a third unreported loss.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked a train with fuel in the occupied territory of Zaporizhia Oblast. ASTRA learned about the consequences of the strike
The day before, the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine published a video of a UAV attack on a freight train. In the video, at least one carriage catches fire after the strike. It was claimed that this happened on May 24 on the Verkhniy Tokmak - Molochansk - Fedorovka railway section. The agency reported the destruction of three fuel tanks.
According to ASTRA sources, Ukrainian drones did indeed strike a moving train heading from Volnovakha to Dzhankoy. This happened on the night of May 24 near the Fedorovka station in the Melitopol district. The train was attacked by three UAVs in total.
One UAV crashed into a diesel fuel tank, which exploded and caught fire. Another one hit a freight car, and a third hit the railroad tracks.
There were no casualties.
They needed room for a love swing.
The one with GRIM is the drone model. I assume F-19 is made by the same manufacturer that produces F-7 & F-10 drones, commonly used by the 414th Strike UAV Brigade. Sometimes they will put a unit or donor's name there instead.
From a different article:
The controversial image appears to have been generated using artificial intelligence and was approved by the city administration before painting began.
Ironically, according to Ukraine's Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR), the same stock photo from Depositphotos has been used in their own recruitment materials.
Here is a more detailed source.
