Ukrainian Armed Forces drone causes “apocalypse” for occupants at the front line (video)
The drone saved many Ukrainian tanks, but it was probably badly damaged by the explosion.
A drone of the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed a large number of Russian anti-tank mines in one of the frontline settlements in one strike. The drone video was posted on Facebook by the 72nd Separate Mechanized Brigade named after the Black Zaporozhians.
Ukrainian soldiers spotted dozens of mines that the occupiers had stacked at a road intersection, apparently intending to use them against the tanks of the Defense Forces. They sent an attack drone bomber to the warehouse, which dropped a grenade on the ammunition, and it was very successful.
“When the drone worked as well as HIMARS,” the 72nd Brigade said.
The simultaneous explosion of the mines was so powerful that a huge “fungus” of smoke was formed. According to the video, the blast wave also covered the drone itself, spinning it in the air and throwing it aside, and the fate of the aircraft is unknown.
“The drone is a pity, of course, but fifty anti-tank mines would have done a lot of damage. Volunteers will very quickly make up for the loss of the 72nd Brigade of the Armed Forces,” commented Yuriy Mysyagin, MP from the Servant of the People party and member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security and Defense.
Recently, the 35th Marine Brigade blew up an ammunition depot and forced the Russians to flee. Using a drone, they dropped a grenade on mines stacked on top of each other in a forest belt, resulting in a powerful explosion that frightened the Russian Armed Forces.
It was also reported that the National Guard had hit a minefield of the Russian Armed Forces with a drone for the first time. The ZIL-131-based engineering vehicle is designed to spread mines at a distance of 55 to 120 meters.
