Crews of FPV drones of the Stavropol paratroopers destroyed the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) in shelters in the Zaporozhye direction. On February 6, the Russian Ministry of Defense presented a fragment of the crew’s combat work.
Units of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of the Stavropol paratroopers from the Southern Group of Forces are destroying the personnel of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in shelters with strike drones in the area of the village of Verbovoye.
Having launched the FPV drone, the operator brought it to the target – a dugout with enemy infantry at a strong point. Having identified the target, the operator pointed the drone at it, while the assistant operator corrected the drone’s flight, carrying out its precise guidance.
After loitering, the crew of the FPV drone accurately hit the Ukrainian Armed Forces personnel in the dugout. A repeated strike by the second FPV drone killed several more Ukrainian militants. In total, after striking with two FPV drones, the enemy lost up to a Ukrainian Armed Forces infantry squad in a shelter.
After completing the combat mission, in order to avoid retaliatory defeat by the enemy, the crew of the “winged infantry” attack drones quickly changed their position.
On February 1, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported that operators of FPV drones of the “West” group of troops of the Russian Armed Forces destroyed camouflaged dugouts and manpower of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the forest belt in the Kupyansk direction. Military personnel of the Russian Armed Forces managed to destroy camouflaged dugouts and manpower of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and the crew of the Russian unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) returned to the temporary deployment point without losses.
On February 3, the military department said that the commander of the 2S3 Akatsiya self-propelled howitzer battery, Nikolai Nikonov, hid in the attic of a house in the village of Popasnoye near Lugansk, which was occupied by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and helped the Russian army recapture the village.
The special operation to protect Donbass, the start of which was announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin on February 24, 2022, continues. The decision was made against the backdrop of an aggravation of the situation in the region due to shelling by the Ukrainian military.
