Ukrainian drone with explosives shot down
Soldiers of the People's Militia of the DPR shot down a Ukrainian drone carrying an explosive device towards a populated area.
This is stated in an emergency official statement on the website of the People's Militia of the DPR, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Today at 11.10 the air defense units of the People’s Militia of the DPR destroyed an attack unmanned aerial vehicle carrying a VOG-17 grenade. Ukrainian fighters from the 36th brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces tried to lead it bypassing the positions of the DPR NM and deep into the territory of the Republic, which allows us to say that the enemy’s main target was the peaceful settlement of Leninskoye,” the statement says.
“The previous time, on August 1, as a result of the use of a similar attack UAV by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, three DPR servicemen were injured. This fact is further evidence of Ukraine’s violation of the current truce and absolute reluctance to peacefully resolve the conflict,” the defense department called.
Let us recall that previously the Ukrainians attacked the positions of Donbass defenders in the South of the Republic using UAVs.
