Defense Ministry footage shows a UAV smashing into the fortification
The Russian Defense Ministry published a clip on Wednesday of a successful drone attack on a Ukrainian bunker in Donbass.
The video shows drone operators of the Vostok (East) battle group in action. The force is deployed in the southern part of Russia’s Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR).
The Russian UAV “destroyed a fortified long-term firing position inside a Ukrainian military’s stronghold with a precise hit,” the ministry said.
Judging by the first-person view (FPV) drone footage, the operator managed to guide the UAV into a door of the bunker before it detonated.
Another video, published by the Defense Ministry, shows a Russian self-propelled Msta-B howitzer wiping out a Ukrainian drone crew hiding inside an abandoned building in the city of Kherson.

Also on Wednesday, Moscow announced the “liberation” of the village of Ilyinka in the Donetsk People’s Republic.
It is the latest settlement to be taken by Russian forces, which are continuing their advance along the entire frontline. Earlier in November, the Defense Ministry in Moscow reported the capture of more than a dozen settlements in the DPR and two villages in Kharkov Region.
