Soldiers of the State Border Service destroyed a Russian tank.

This was reported in the press service of the DPSU.

It was noted that this enemy combat vehicle was pestering the military.

"The Russian combat vehicle was hunted down and destroyed by the special unit of the State Border Service in close cooperation with fellow members of other components of the Defense Forces of Ukraine in one of the areas where active combat operations are taking place. Contact with Ukrainian defenders caused the turret of the tank to break off ," the report said.

The video shows how a shell is dropped from a drone on a Russian tank. This is a converted civilian drone, on which the military of the Defense Forces of Ukraine usually use recycled ammunition - grenades, VOG-17 shots or even RKG.
