Rostec's Depesha robot automates supply runs in Ukraine conflict zone

Rostec, Russia's state defense conglomerate, reports its Depesha ground robot is now routinely hauling ~100 kg of cargo over 20+ km in the special operation zone, converting previously dangerous supply missions into automated tasks. This signals incremental Russian battlefield automation, though the claim is unverified and likely promotional. The development underscores a broader trend of robotics reducing personnel risk in contested logistics.
