"Risky? Yes, but leaving them there was even more dangerous, and it would not otherwise have been possible to pick them up."
"Since last year, Ukraine and Russia have increasingly relied on small aerial and ground drones for tasks beyond direct attack or reconnaissance."
"One Ukrainian brigade said in February that it had used drones to transport 200 metric tons of goods, roughly equivalent to 10,000 troops each carrying about 44 pounds of supplies, in a single month."
Ukrainian troops from the 14th Separate Mechanized Brigade successfully evacuated a cat and dog using a drone, which was initially on a food supply mission. The animal welfare group UAnimals reported that the pets were transported approximately 7.5 miles to safety. The cat was rescued after its caretaker was hospitalized, and the dog was added to the mission later. This operation exemplifies the innovative use of drones in logistics, as Ukraine increasingly employs them for various tasks beyond combat, including transporting supplies and goods.
