Russian FPV drone operators from the 98th Airborne Division showed footage of a drone attack on a column of armored vehicles of the Ukrainian army near the town of Chasov Yar. The Ukrainian column included the 24th King Danylo Brigade, a tank, an M113 armored personnel carrier, two infantry fighting vehicles and other equipment. The Ukrainian group was moving to evacuate the wounded after a previous unsuccessful attack. The column of armored vehicles was reportedly destroyed as a result of FPV drone attacks and running over mines. The video has been shortened, and the dead servicemen have been removed from the video.

The Russian Orbita system, designed for remote control of drones, was used for the first time in battles in Ukraine. The operator of the Russian FPV drone Ovod was in Moscow, the drone was launched in the Donbass, near the city of Chasov Yar. With the help of a remote relay command and telemetry channel, the drone attacked the positions of the Ukrainian army in the vicinity of the city of Chasov Yar, at a distance of 11 kilometers from the launch site. The use of the Orbita system will protect drone operators and allow the creation of large remote centers with them.
Extended archival footage of the battle has been published, 12 Ukrainian servicemen against 5 Russian soldiers. The video was filmed near the village of Urozhainoye in Donbass, at a stronghold of the Russian army, which Ukrainian servicemen are trying to storm. The stronghold is defended by units of the 37th separate guards motorized rifle brigade of Russia. It was not possible to establish which Ukrainian unit participated in the battle. Despite the numerical superiority of the Ukrainian group, it does not try to storm the stronghold or outflank it, mainly throwing grenades and shooting over the trenches. Russian serviceman Ivan Kalashnikov, deputy platoon commander, also throws grenades and shoots in response. The video is long, the clip is shortened, showing all the active moments of the battle. Ultimately, having failed to capture the stronghold, the Ukrainian group retreats. Following the battle, the Russian servicemen were awarded.
Watched the clip, FPV drone was watching every move & I think the FPV drone was Russian therefore th eUkrainians had no chance of intelligence picture from above.
Then in the end there was some artillery fire when soldier retreating (Ukr).
An episode of combat work in Ukraine, the Russian ZRPK "Tunguska-M", 18th combined arms army of the "Dnepr" group of forces. The Tunguska-M air defense is also used by the Ukrainian army. In the video, the Tunguska-M ZRPK shoots down a Ukrainian drone using a 9M311-M1 missile. The drone's wreckage is shown at the end of the video, the drone model is not reported, the location of the shooting is unknown. It is worth noting that the Tunguska-M air defense has become more common.
Footage of an attempt by Ukrainian kamikaze drones of the aircraft type, presumably UJ-22 Airborne and Aeroprakt A-22, to attack the Russian economic zone "Alabuga" in Tatarstan. The Ukrainians were supposed to hit the Russian enterprise producing kamikaze drones "Geran". This is not the first attempt to attack this enterprise. The Russian army allegedly used the "Pantsir-S1" and "Tor-M2" air defense systems to repel the attack. Not all missiles immediately hit the target, presumably the air defense was operating at maximum range, or the terrain folds interfered with the radar. It is reported that 5 Ukrainian drones took part in the attack, all of them were shot down by Russian air defense.

Footage of a combined Russian missile strike on the command post of the 47th Mechanized Brigade of the Ukrainian Army in the village of Korovintsy, Sumy Oblast, Ukraine. According to media reports, the missile strike was carried out by a Russian Iskander ballistic missile and a Tornado-S MLRS. The forested area housed a Ukrainian command post, communications masts, three mobile communications nodes and military vehicles. Judging by the video, the missiles hit quite accurately. Media reports that 65 Ukrainian servicemen were killed, including 25 officers.
Residents of Kyiv began to publish episodes of a massive attack by Russian missiles on objects in the city on the night of April 24. As reported, Russian Iskander missiles, Kalibr missiles, and Kh-59 and Kh-69 missiles were used for the attack. It is worth noting that the video does not show the operation of the MIM-104 Patriot air defense system and other air defense systems; perhaps the Ukrainian army has a shortage of these missiles. A video from a Kharkov resident is also shown, showing Russian missile strikes on the Ukrainian Malyshev Transport Engineering Plant in Kharkov. According to Ukrainian media, there are dead and wounded.
An episode of combat work in Ukraine, the crew of the Russian 203-mm self-propelled artillery unit 2S7M "Malka". The SAU 2S7M "Malka" was developed in 1986. The SAU 2S7M "Malka" struck a stronghold of the Ukrainian army in the Krasnoarmeysk direction in the Donbass. Artillery strikes are adjusted from the UAV "Orlan-10".
Unique archive footage of the interception of all Ukrainian HIMARS missiles by the Russian Pantsir-S1 air defense system. The HIMARS MLRS has been produced in the United States since 2005. The video is filmed by Russian servicemen from the ground, and is currently the only high-quality video showing the results of the Pantsir-S1 air defense system's work on such targets. The Pantsir-S1 air defense missile and gun system reportedly shot down all 12 HIMARS MLRS missiles. GMLRS missiles are a difficult target, and practice has shown that air defense operators must have experience working on such targets. Judging by the video, the Pantsir-S1 air defense system demonstrated 100% effectiveness against targets such as the GMLRS missiles of the HIMARS MLRS systems.
Footage of another M2A2 Bradley ODS-SA IFV used by Russian army units. The M2A2 Bradley ODS SA IFV was previously used by the Ukrainian army and was abandoned with the engine running in the Kursk region of Russia, near the village of Kazachya Loknya. Russian marines of the 155th Brigade tested the M2A2 IFV and shared their impressions. It is worth noting that, in terms of its overall qualities, the M2A2 Bradley ODS SA IFV showed itself well in battles in Ukraine. Details in the video.
The first official footage of North Korean soldiers training at Russian army training grounds has been published. The video shows Russian and North Korean servicemen conducting joint training. Earlier, the head of the Russian General Staff, Valery Gerasimov, reported that the Russian army used North Korean soldiers in the Kursk region. But there is still no answer to the question of how many there were. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has already reported that a monument to the North Korean soldiers who took part in the battles in Russia's Kursk region will soon be erected in Pyongyang.
Footage of a Russian Kh-38 missile strike on a temporary deployment point of a UAV battalion of the 38th Marine Brigade of Ukraine. The video was filmed near the village of Nikolaevka, east of Slavyansk. Ukrainian servicemen launched and controlled FPV drones from one of the buildings. The attack was carried out by a Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber with a Kh-38 high-precision air-to-surface missile. The main purpose of Kh-38 missiles is to destroy ground, sea and fortified targets, including equipment, buildings and other objects.
Against the backdrop of news about the use of DPRK soldiers in battles in the Kursk region of Russia, new information about them has begun to appear. Chairman of the Russian State Duma Defense Committee Andrei Kartapolov reported that now the DPRK servicemen have completed the tasks assigned and are starting to prepare for new ones, the details of which will become known later. Now we can assume that the DPRK servicemen will be involved in the battles in Donbass. Previously, it was assumed that they would be used in the Belgorod region of Russia, but the battles there are taking place in a limited area and their intensity is low. Let me remind you that earlier in 2024, Russia and the DPRK ratified a strategic partnership agreement. In the video, you can see episodes of the training of DPRK servicemen in Russia.
An episode of the assault by a Russian unit, a stronghold of the Ukrainian army. The location of the shooting is not reported. The assault is carried out by servicemen of the 37th separate motorized rifle Budapest Don Cossack Brigade named after Shchadenko, part of the 36th combined arms army of Russia. It was not possible to identify the Ukrainian servicemen participating in the battle. Grenades and small arms are used during the assault on the stronghold. Also, two TM-62 anti-tank mines are thrown into the dugout, at the end and at the beginning. Judging by the video, after the second mine explosion, the dugout was completely destroyed. Video shortened
Despite the fact that the training of DPRK soldiers in the Russian army has been known for a week, it was still unclear how it happened. The first interviews with Russian military instructors answered many questions. According to the intelligence service of the Republic of Korea (NIS), 15,000 DPRK soldiers were trained in the Kursk region of Russia, with losses in battles amounting to 4%. Touching on the specifics of training DPRK soldiers in Russia. The average age of DPRK soldiers is 25 years old, physically strong, trained, executive and motivated. In Russia, soldiers were taught the specifics of modern combat, taking into account the threats from drones. The language barrier was overcome. Also, a Russian serviceman reported on the weapons received from the DPRK. More details about everything in the video.
