The Khortytsia Operational and Strategic Group of Forces reported this on Telegram, sharing a corresponding video, as reported by Ukrinform.

"In the Kramatorsk direction, attack drones are organizing 'hot meetings' for the occupiers. Thanks to successful sorties, pilots effectively destroyed the Russian 152-mm self-propelled gun 2S5 Giatsint-S —a weapon that had been actively obstructing the advance of Ukrainian forces,” the report reads.
