This blocus of Crimea is interesting because it seems that russian forces are lacking crucial air-defense systems to target ukrainian drones.

Here is a map of all the hits on AD (blue) and on radars (yellow) along with other mid-range strikes (white).

Most of the videos remain unmapped, with only a minority of the trucks hit geolocalized.

This video for example shows multiple strikes on key roads leading to Donetsk.

In total, I managed to take a screeshot of 415 trucks hit (on ukrainian videos mainly) since early may, which gives us around 10 trucks hit a day for just the confirmed ones...

Last months, we had 3 videos of strikes a week, we know nearly have 3 videos a day.

All those daily strikes against trucks and vehicles continue to be scaled up the Ukrainian units.

More than a month after the campaign started, the Russians barely managed to hit few drones with interceptors, with only one unit, Rubikon, which is not enough.

This russian strike campaign is not non-existent, it started before the ukrainian one and still continues.

But the ukrainians adapted :

🔸Anti-drone nets on key roads
🔸Interceptor teams everywhere
🔸EW against russian Molniyah, BM-35 and other mid-range drones.

However, there is one trend we should keep and eye on, it's the Russian attempt to replicate the ukrainian campaign with strikes on ukrainian logistics.

They are mainly using Geran drones (which are bigger, noisier, and more costly.

Thus, the Ukrainian air campaign continues to intensify and pose problems for Russian logistics in the tactical and operational depth.

An intensification of airstrikes is expected in the coming days on points linking Crimea to occupied Ukraine and on secondary roads behind the front lines.
