On the night of February 28, the Ukrainian Defense Forces destroyed a thermobaric ammunition storage facility of the Russian invaders in the temporarily occupied territory of the Donetsk region, in the Selidove district.

In addition, three more important facilities of the Russian invaders were hit. In particular, the Ilsk Oil Refinery (Krasnodar Krai, RF), which is involved in supplying the Russian occupation army. The results of the hit are being clarified.

More to come...

Glory to Ukraine!

I think it's mainly about a relative lack of drones. They do have a lot of them, but each attack takes several. Remember that these drones are purpose-built devices varying in size from half a metre to over five metres, not civilian quadcopters.

Secondarily, you indeed need to locate the logistics bases, and the you need to observe them to know where the target is being stored and figure out what is the target's weakest spot.

But mostly it's a matter of production capacity. They build enough drones to make an attack, then they attack. And then they need to wait until they have enough for the next attack. It works, because replacing an ammunition depot takes far longer time than replacing the drones used for destroying it.
