A drone assisted Ukrainian forces in targeting a military training facility of Russian troops in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, located in Russia-occupied southern Ukraine, said the Ukraine’s Southern Defense Forces. After spotting the Russian positions, a 660-pound rocket, reportedly packed with hundreds of grenade-sized submunitions, rained fire on them, said the Ukrainian forces, tagging a video of the rocket attack. The video showed the drone footage of an initial explosion damaging the Russian facility followed by multiple blasts in the area.
The Ukrainian forces claimed that there were about two dozen Russian soldiers in the area, without specifying the number of casualties during the attack. “The defense forces of Southern Ukraine discovered and damaged the training site of the personnel of the enemy troops. At the time of the attack, there were about two dozen occupiers in this area.
