The Switchblade 600 has an operational range of 25 miles.
Perhaps this attack happened on the ruzzian side of the border.

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then lost in service with its new owners, it is only added as a loss of the original operator to avoid double listings. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it's not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

I agree with PIF...escorts armed with HARMs and Aim-120s.

This has been reported earlier, however there is a video of the facility taken prior to the attack.
ISW reports (10 June):
“Ukrainian strikes against Russian military and logistics assets in connection to the United States’ partial removal of Russian sanctuary in Belgorod Oblast may have compelled Russian forces to change their deployment and transport patterns.
The Crimea-based Atesh Ukrainian partisan movement reported on June 10 that Russian forces recently redeployed air defense systems from occupied Crimea to Belgorod Oblast and that Russian air defenses are not completely covering Crimea as a result.
Footage dated June 8 shows that Russia has begun transporting fuel across the Kerch Strait across the railway bridge.
Ukrainian Southern Operational Command Spokesperson Captain Third Rank Dmytro Pletenchuk stated on April 29 that Russian authorities have not transported fuel across the Kerch Strait railway bridge since March 2024 due to the threat of a Ukrainian strike against the bridge as a fuel transport crossed, which could ignite and possibly destroy the bridge.
Ukrainian military–focused news outlet Militarnyi assessed on June 10 that Ukrainian strikes against railway barges across the Kerch Strait on May 30 prompted Russian authorities to begin transporting fuel across the railway bridge again.”
Some good intel, some good timing, some good luck and the rail line could be completely compromised.
On June 4 there were a bunch of pro-Russian accounts/bots claiming an RQ-4 "disappeared from radar", and implying Russia had shot it down. Of course, their source was simply flight trackers that use ADS-B data, and aircraft, especially military, "disappear" from tracking all the time. In this case on 4 June, FORTE-12 "reappeared" as she always does.
Thanks for the info!
We have seen pictures where UKF have hit a moving train with a long range drone.
Perhaps we will see a fuel train hit while on the bridge.
Forte12 back over the Black Sea this minute after almost a week’s absence. I was getting worried!

AAPL up 14.03 to 207.15 at close!!!
Over 7% in 1 day. Apparently, investors were briefly confused after Apple's announcements yesterday. By this morning, the geeks had explained to big investors what was actually happening and why it was going to make Apple a lot of money.
“Perhaps we will see a fuel train hit while on the bridge”
I recommend severing the rail line at the far ends with ATACMS when they do, so that the fires can burn unmolested to their fullest extent, and then rain explosive payloads onto the softened smoking coals.

A group of elite special forces died tragically in the Belgorod region
Unpleasant news came to us from the Belgorod region. Not far from the Ukrainian border, an enemy shell hit a house where our reconnaissance group was preparing to leave.
According to available information, the group previously settled in a house from which a family with two children had recently been evacuated. 5 kilometers from the front line.
“At night, the group was supposed to move behind enemy lines. At approximately 18:30 there was a strike. There was nothing left of the house. 4 died,” the source said, adding that they were highly qualified and experienced specialists.

Again bad news from Crimea. More than 20 military personnel were killed and many were wounded
Attentive readers have noticed that we have recently been trying not to report on the losses we are suffering as a result of enemy attacks on Crimea.
But the situation on the peninsula does not change - the air defense has not been strengthened, as we asked , and losses continue to be hidden. Therefore, we simply have to publish this post. Despite today’s holiday, which, of course, we don’t want to spoil for anyone. But the truth is more important, especially if it can influence something.
23 of our military personnel on the night of June 12 as a result of an enemy missile attack in different regions of Crimea. More than 30 were injured.
We will not report where exactly the enemy struck ( perhaps specifically for Russia Day ) and what was lost from military equipment and equipment, so as not to give information to the enemy.
At the same time, we once again call for solutions to the problems with the air defense of Crimea. Otherwise, we will be forced to report more about the consequences of this shelling.
By the way, we received information about damage to 2 aircraft at the Belbek airfield. This data has not been confirmed, do not believe it if you see it somewhere.
There is also information that some of the wounded were taken to the Krasnodar Territory and Rostov-on-Don, due to the fact that hospitals in Crimea and Sevastopol are overcrowded with wounded in the North Military District. We are checking this data and will report it as soon as we have confirmed information.

When will Armenia apply for membership in NATO?
https://x.com/defense_news/status/1800581526100259053
FTA: "The offer from the American defense firm comes as Poland considers buying up to 486 launchers and launcher-loader module kits with related gear for its M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, or HIMARS, which Lockheed makes."
486 Launchers!
I wonder if this has been pre-coordinated with DoD and State Department for approval and compliance with ITAR.
I heard om the news last night a brief statement that the US has sent another Patriot battery to UKR.
