Heavy rains in Ukraine's Donetsk region have washed out key roads, putting soldiers at risk as vehicles get stuck and the supply of ammunition and food becomes a challenge. Often, only heavy trucks and tracked vehicles can get through. Meanwhile, Ukrainian artillery crews carry on shelling with the self-propelled 2S3 "Akatsiya" howitzer. Stormy skies make it impossible to adjust fire with the help of drones so they often aim at planned targets -- equipment, fortifications, and Russian guns that have been scouted in advance.
