Ukrainian footage of Russian infantry harried by drones as they withdraw after a failed attack. The video is provided by Ukraine’s 47th Mechanized Brigade, indicating that the action likely occurred near Avdiivka. These Russian soldiers straggle across open ground, assisting their wounded, and act that sadly is rather unusual. Early in the video an FPV cruises past a cluster of three men, two of which appear to be helping a wounded comrade, but the drone passes them by. It looks as though a solitary figure near the trio might be shooting at the drone filming the footage. Eventually the FPV drone returns and strikes the three men, removing them from play.
