In the Pokrovsk sector, strike drones freed Ukrainian soldiers from enemy captivity.
The 7th Rapid Response Corps of the Air Assault Forces reported that four Ukrainian servicemen had been captured by a Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group.
Russian forces launched an assault on an observation post defended by Ukrainian troops.
Later, an aerial reconnaissance unit patrolling the area detected the group of invaders escorting the captives.
Strike drones from the 25th Airborne Brigade, the 68th Jaeger Brigade, and other adjacent units were immediately dispatched to assist.
The approach of a swarm of FPV drones disoriented the enemy and diverted their attention. Taking advantage of this, the Ukrainian soldiers managed to break free from enemy captivity.
Russian fighters attempted to hide in bushes and trenches, but within minutes the group was struck by more than ten Ukrainian strike drones.
