Details: An artillery crew from the monitoring group detected an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) approaching Ukrainian positions from the direction of temporarily occupied territories.
Using precise shots from their firearms, specifically AK-74 assault rifles, three servicemen successfully targeted and struck a Russian drone. Having exploded in the sky, the wreckage of the Lancet fell approximately 30 metres from its intended target, as reported by the National Guard.
Quote: "It has become almost a daily necessity to use small arms on this front, destroying enemy UAVs such as ZALAs, Orlans, and Lancets. Servicemen say that destroying such targets in the sky with a Kalashnikov assault rifle is nearly impossible. However, this demonstrates that the soldiers of the Spartan Offensive Guard are skilfully prepared to carry out various combat missions."
