UAVs of the Southern Group of Forces destroyed AFU fortifications and manpower

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of the Southern Group of Forces have destroyed fortifications and manpower of the Ukrainian army in the Kurakhov area of the Special Military Operation (SMO) zone. This was reported by the Russian Defense Ministry on December 4.

According to the ministry, calculations of attack drones in the course of performing tasks to support assault groups of motorized rifle units ensure their successful advance, destroying fortifications and enemy manpower. Thus, Russian servicemen discovered the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), where there were about 10 militants.

It is specified that when the reconnaissance drone approached, the Ukrainian fighters took cover in a dugout, but they were destroyed by the operator of the FPV strike drone.

"When we identify some target, defeat it, we get the desire and attitude. It inspires the guys that they are doing their work for a reason," said the UAV platoon commander with the call sign Samurai.

UAV calculations when detecting the enemy group destroy the AFU independently, using small-type attack UAVs or FPV drones, or correcting strikes of barrel and rocket artillery.

"Destruction of heavy equipment, light equipment, that is, vehicles, the enemy has a lot <...> Objective control is conducted, we have people who conduct this control. We are working, they are watching," added the commander of the platoon of UAVs with the call sign Samurai.
