Somewhere over the battlefield in #Ukraine:

A #drone equipped with two shotgun barrels intercepts a few drones in midair.

We've seen many different innovative ways to take down drones, but this is the first time I've seen this particular method.

Sometimes the simplest methods are the best?

Location Unknown, Ukraine:

A squad-sized element of Russians is eliminated, likely while staging for an assault or rotating.

Two survivors hide among the dead but are struck again by an FPV drone.

This is the consequence of becoming complacent when drones are around.

Location Unknown, Ukraine:

A soldier of the 32nd Motor Rifle Brigade fins himself in point blank combat with a Russian soldier.

Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine:

The Third Assault Brigade (formed in 2022 out of AZOV units) hampers logistics and seeks targets of opportunity with their drones.

A couple tanks, some infantrymen, and a number of logistics trucks are destroyed. Cutting off supplies seriously weakens enemy offensives.

A HIMARS strike somewhere behind Russian lines. Carried out by the GUR and SBU (Ukrainian Intelligence), the target was a group of officers having an in person field meeting.

Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine:

"The entire company, 70 people, were smashed. Only a few remained. Drones are flying, finishing off the wounded"

A Russian soldier films his units retreat past forgotten remains of both soldiers and heavy equipment alike.

North Korean soldiers being struck by Ukrainian bomber drone.

Note how bunched up the soldiers are, a common mistake by those who are untrained on how to fight against drones.

Spacing is paramount when under threat by explosives.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces recovered the body of a slain North Korean Soldier. This card was found in his possession, including instructions on how to commit suicide if under threat of being captured.

North Korea does not expect their young men to return alive.

Tokyo Squad, 102nd Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces published a video depicting an aerial drone interception. The Russian drone appears to be a Zala-type recon drone.

GRAPHIC - Ukraine/Russian Frontline

The drone unit of the 47th Mechanized Brigade published video of them utilizing an FPV (kamikaze) drone against a Russian infantryman. The drone made a direct hit, it is VERY unlikely the soldier survived.

The Russian soldier seems to have abandoned or

Kupyansk, Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine: (No Blood/Gore)

A group of 3 Russian soldiers are captured following a failed assault on the town of Kupyansk near the front lines. While we love to see soldiers taken alive as opposed to killed, there are some questionable moments in this video...

Berlin, Germany - A rousing crowd of 8 took to the streets in Berlin to protest mobilization in Ukraine.

Reportedly Ukrainian emigrants who fled the war (most of whom are men of draft age), they decried Zelensky's call for more men, but did not protest Russia's invasion of the country.

Russian-Ukrainian Frontline - Location Unknown:

The husks of three Russian T-80BV and T-80BVM tanks are recorded somewhere on the front. I'm not able to identify exactly where they are, but there are some interesting things to note...

Rivne, Ukraine:

On November 17th, video surfaced of at least 3 Russian cruise missiles striking civilian power infrastructure in the town of Rivne, hundreds of miles from the frontline.

This is part of Russia's effort to damage infrastructure and deny civilians heating during the winter.

Kharkiv Region, Ukraine:

New video from the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade (Formerly Azov) shows recent developments in Ukrainian kamikaze drone warfare. The prevalence of thermal footage from each of these FPV drones indicates an increased ability to source the high value thermal sensors.

Belgorod District, November 17th, ~8AM:

A series of blasts ring out over the city, 5-6 distinct explosions.
Exact cause of the explosion, I do not know yet. Some pundits have suggested ATACM's (Biden Admin allegedly permitted use across borders today) however the sound does not match ATACMS.
