Over the past hour, Ukrainian forces have conducted drone strikes targeting a gas station in Belgorod, Russia, and a Russian command post in the Northern Slobozhanshchyna direction. The gas station strike, geolocated to 50.64865, 36.56660 in Belgorod Oblast, was confirmed by multiple sources including @zarGEOINT and @UAControlMap. Separately, a "Steel Border" unit's fiber-optic FPV drone successfully penetrated anti-drone nets to strike a Russian command post, as reported by @wartranslated. The strike on the Belgorod gas station occurred around or shortly after 1:38 PM UTC, with reports emerging from sources like @zarGEOINT and @markito0171 detailing a drone hitting the facility. The command post strike was attributed to a fiber-optic FPV drone that traveled nearly 15 km, according to border guards cited by @wartranslated. These actions follow overnight Ukrainian strikes on Russian military and infrastructure targets, including a warship, refinery, and radar systems, as detailed in previous reports. Details regarding the specific timing and impact of the command post strike are still emerging. The previous reports from October 4th, 2025, indicated overnight Ukrainian Special Operations Forces successfully damaged the Russian Project 21631 Buyan-M corvette RFS Grad 575 on Lake Onega, and hit the Kirishinefteorgsintez refinery in Leningrad region, among other targets. The current actions represent a continuation of Ukraine's stated intent to intensify strikes on Russian logistics and fuel infrastructure.
