What happened
Ukraine's 1st Separate Center of Unmanned Systems Forces, coordinating with the SSU, said Fire Point-made FP-1/FP-2 strike drones destroyed tank wagons carrying petroleum products on a train at a railway station in Stanytsia Luhanska. Commander Robert "Madyar" Brovdi said the resulting fire was large enough to be recorded by NASA's satellite fire-monitoring system, and Ukraine's Security Service published video of the burning train. No casualties were reported. Satellite fire detection corroborates a significant blaze; the precise cargo loss has not been independently assessed.
