Ukrainian KARA UGVs used for resupply/evac and first-time strike missions

The post claims crews of the KARA ground robotic complex (NRK) from Ukraine’s 60th Mechanized Brigade used UGVs to deliver supplies, weapons and ammunition, evacuate civilians and wounded, and—reportedly for the first time—employed strike-capable ground drones to hit enemy shelters. This indicates expanding UGV roles from logistics/CASEVAC into direct fire/assault tasks at the front.
