Novoaidar

Overnight on 29 September, Ukrainian forces struck seven targets in occupied territory, according to battlefield reports. The hits included military sites near Manhush, Kyrnosove and Novoaidar, and oil depots at Druzhne, Novoiehorivka and Kachkarske. Commenters highlighted the damage to fuel storage, with one quipping that a depot now has far less to store, a sardonic nod to the strikes' effectiveness.

Open-source tracking accounts are reporting a drone strike on an oil depot near Novoaidar in the Luhansk region, with tags also pointing to Kharkiv, Donetsk and Komysh-Zoria. The posts tie the incident to Russia's war infrastructure and energy targets. Details on casualties, damage or responsibility have not yet been confirmed by independent sources.
