Another rare sample of russian military equipment was "hunted down" by Ukrainians. The 112th Territorial Defense Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports it has eliminated a UR-77 "Meteorit" mine clearing vehicle.
The effective work of the drone operator is worth mentioning: he was able to spot the enemy unit deep in the woods. And then the artillerymen of the 92nd Mechanized Brigade launched a precise strike on it.
