The 3rd Brigade has released new footage showing its Hatylo drone unit destroying russian infantry and two Gvozdika howitzers with precise FPV and bomber UAV strike

The 3rd Brigade has released new footage showcasing the precise and devastating work of its recently expanded Hatylo Unmanned Systems Battalion. The video, published on the Brigade's official channel, highlights how Ukrainian drone operators continue to adapt quickly and strike effectively against russian forces on the front line.

The newly published footage shows Ukrainian operators destroying multiple russian infantry positions with remarkable precision. Using both FPV kamikaze drones and heavy bomber-type UAVs, the Hatylo crews continue to target enemy concentrations and equipment deep within temporarily occupied territory.

Among the most notable strikes in the video are the destruction of two russian 2S1 Gvozdika self-propelled howitzers. These systems remain an important part of russia's artillery toolkit, and eliminating them weakens the enemy's capacity to shell Ukrainian positions and civilian areas.

The video also offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the operators themselves, the crews guiding the drones, coordinating hits, and adjusting tactics in real time. Their work demonstrates how small, agile teams equipped with modern unmanned technology can deliver disproportionate effects on the battlefield.

As Defense Express previously reported, russian An-26 military transport aircraft was destroyed at the Kacha air base near Sevastopol in temporarily occupied Crimea, according to multiple Ukrainian and russian Telegram channels. The strike marks another significant blow to russian aviation infrastructure on the peninsula, which has seen a growing number of Ukrainian precision attacks in recent months.
