Details: Drone operators from border guard reconnaissance units detected a Russian group that had captured three Ukrainian defenders. Several UAV crews from the 1st Separate Tank Siversk Brigade were deployed to intercept and wipe out the Russian troops.

The Ukrainian UAV operators carried out a unique joint operation, managing to separate the Russians from the Ukrainian soldiers and, by dropping munitions, forced the Russian troops to flee. The strikes were so precise that the Russians had no chance: they abandoned the POWs and retreated to save their own lives. 

Subsequently, with the combined efforts of operators from defence force units and using drone lights for guidance, the Ukrainian soldiers were successfully brought back to Ukrainian positions.
