📹 Russian reconnaissance units destroy a Ukraine sabotage and reconnaissance group in the special military operation (video courtesy of Russia's MoD)
A Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance group was revealed in a ditch under a field road. It was impossible to destroy the group using a VOG-17 grenade from the quadcopter due to the Ukrainian well-equipped hiding place in the concrete ditch.
A combined assault team was quickly dispatched to the enemy and, under the cover of an APC-82A, advanced to the designated point and began the assault.
With a small-arms barrage, the reconnaissance team locked the saboteurs in a ditch and prevented them from getting out. At that moment, one of the scouts moved towards the Ukrainian fighters' hideout and threw a hand-held fragmentation grenade into it and neutralized them.
