Operators of the Phoenix unmanned aerial systems unit of the Pomsta border brigade destroyed a Russian Uragan multiple launch rocket system in the Pokrovsk direction.

According to Ukrinform, this was reported by the State Border Service of Ukraine.

"In the area of the village of Netailove in Donetsk region, border guards detected a Russian Uragan MLRS heading towards Pokrovsk. The enemy intended to use this combat vehicle against Ukrainian defenders in an attempt to break through our defenses. However, a well-aimed strike by an FPV drone destroyed the infernal machine—it burned to the ground," the report said.

The State Border Service of Ukraine reminded that the BM-27 Uragan is a Soviet 220-millimeter multiple launch rocket system based on the ZIL-135LM chassis. In 20 seconds, the Uragan can fire a salvo of 16 rockets.
