The press service of the 44th separate artillery brigade named after Hetman Danylo Apostol has released a video showcasing accurate strikes on russian occupation forces' equipment. The precise shots by the brigade's fighters resulted in the destruction of the russian BM-21 "Grad" multiple rocket launcher, the self-propelled artillery unit "Msta-S," as well as the howitzer "Hyacinth-B".
It is important to highlight the fact that recently, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been engaging in effective counter-battery operations, targeting russian towed howitzers, self-propelled artillery units, and multiple rocket launchers.

Primarily, the HIMARS missile systems with their high-precision GMLRS missiles have been actively involved in counter-battery operations. In early July, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces released a spectacular video in which four missiles launched from the American rocket system destroyed an entire battery of the russian "Msta-S" self-propelled artillery units.
Subsequently, the HIMARS missile system showcased its capability in neutralizing other russian artillery systems.
The aerial reconnaissance of 43 OABR promptly recorded the equipment of the occupiers and passed the information on to fellow artillerymen. HIMARS sent the russian BM-21 "Grad" multiple rocket launchers, as well as the self-propelled artillery units "Gvozdika" and "Hyacinth," straight to hell.
A true "hunt" for russian "Grads" was carried out by the Special Operations Forces (SOF). During a raid behind enemy lines, they discovered the positions of three multiple rocket launchers. This allowed Ukrainian artillery personnel to turn these machines into scrap metal.
Footage of the destruction of the russian "Grad" was also shown by the 26th Artillery Brigade. The Polish Krab self-propelled artillery unit targeted the russian multiple rocket launcher with the first shot.
At the same time, video footage of the destruction of the russian "Gvozdika" self-propelled artillery unit was shared by the 45th Separate Artillery Brigade. The vehicle was hit by fragments of ammunition, resulting in a fire in the artillery unit's turret.
Overall, according to the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, since the start of the full-scale invasion, the estimated losses of enemy artillery systems amount to 4,288 units.
Earlier Defense Express highlighted that Three russian MLRS Were Found and Eliminated by Artillery.
