This footage depicts the aerial bombardment of Russian troops by "Black Raven", a Ukrainian drone team, and contains casualties. Viewer discretion is advised.

Nine to ten Russians are seen conducting operations in a wide-open area around a power line. This lack of cover and concealment will prove to be to their detriment. At 0:05 seconds, the drone pickles its first bomb-load, dropping a pair of munitions on the Russians (many of whom are obscured by the tower). At 0:18, the second of the two bombs appears to denotate as the surviving soldiers flee. A second drop of two munitions is recorded at 0:24, presumably as a coup de grace. The drone then zooms in on the bodies of the slain.

The song being played over this footage is by Mucuraev (also spelled Mutsurayev), a Chechen singer whose music is banned in Russia for concerning resistance and independence.
