Ukraine and Russia are engaged in an ongoing conflict, with Ukraine's defensive lines and use of drones being crucial in the war. Ukrainian forces are utilizing innovative tactics, such as using fiber optic fpv drones, electronic warfare systems, and heavy drones for precision mining of Russian logistical routes. Russia is also employing new strategies, including recruitment efforts and the use of advanced drones and anti-vehicle landmines.
