In the Kursk sector, fighters from the 15th Mobile Border Guard Detachment used drones to strike a Russian tank camouflaged in the terrain.

This was reported by the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, which released a video of the combat operation, according to Ukrinform.

“The occupiers tried to make the equipment as safe as possible by camouflaging it with improvised means. However, this was not a problem for our pilots. With precision and skillful maneuvering, the enemy's equipment was put out of action,” the agency said.
