Fighters from the 412th Nemesis drone regiment, alongside other units of Ukraine's Defense Forces, successfully located and destroyed a Russian ammunition depot, a TOS-1A Solntsepyok heavy flamethrower system, a loading vehicle, and the enemy crew near Selydove in the Donetsk region.

According to Ukrinform, the Khortytsia Operational and Strategic Group of Forces reported the strike on Telegram, sharing a video that highlights the devastating impact of coordinated operations among different Ukrainian military units.

On February 28, footage of the burning and exploding Russian ammunition depot quickly spread across social media. The Khortytsia Group of Forces released unique reconnaissance visuals and detailed how these targets were destroyed.

The Solntsepyok is a heavy thermobaric multiple-launch rocket system designed to fire incendiary or thermobaric warheads. Russian forces deploy it against Ukrainian infantry and lightly armored vehicles.
