Video: Ukrainian drone destroys Russian artillery piece via ricochet

Pilots from the 45th Artillery Brigade named after General Myron Tarnavsky recorded a unique instance of a Russian artillery piece being destroyed on June 15. While carrying out a combat mission, a Ukrainian drone became entangled in a tree branch but still managed to strike the enemy gun.

 

As it approached the enemy gun, one of our strike UAVs accidentally snagged on a tree branch, but this did not prevent the warhead from reaching its target and causing a spectacular fire.

As a result, the gun and the ammunition nearby were destroyed.

“A vivid example of how even a bad start can lead to unexpectedly wonderful results! A note to everyone who complains about difficult Mondays,” the brigade commented on the video.

Earlier in Kharkiv, a city council employee was killed during a nighttime shelling

As a reminder, Russia attacked the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, causing a fire.

Prior to that, Russian drones struck the Zaporizhzhia region, leaving several people injured.

Five State Emergency Service rescuers were killed as a result of the Russian attack on Kharkiv.
