Ukrainian intelligence troops are effectively taking down enemy drones on the front line, with the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (HUR) releasing striking footage of their anti-drone units in action.
The video shows the work of the Nexus unit, a team specializing in counter-drone warfare.
These fighters are enforcing a no-fly zone for Russian forces at the front, destroying enemy "wings" — both reconnaissance and strike drones — right in the sky.
"Neutralizing Russian aerial reconnaissance assets and strike drones is an important component of Ukraine’s success on the battlefield," the statement said.
Russian losses at the front
Since the start of the full-scale war, Russia has already lost 1,062,290 personnel. Over the past day, Ukrainian forces eliminated 940 Russian troops.
As Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi reported, in July drones struck 23,400 enemy targets. In the same month, Ukraine’s drone forces eliminated 5,134 occupiers.
As a reminder, in recent days the Defense Intelligence's unit Prymary struck a Russian landing craft and an air defense base in Crimea.
