Watch Russian T-90M Tanks Obliterate Ukrainian Positions Near Donetsk
Russian modernized T-90M tanks display their technical superiority and precision in an operation targeting position area of a Ukrainian unit in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR).
The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) has released footage showing Russian tank crews belonging to the Battlegroup Yug hit targets harboring enemy servicemen in special op zone.
The modernized T-90M Proryv tanks took up to the fire positions considering the terrain features of the area, eliminated Ukrainian soldiers in their shelters, and neutralized their firing positions. This allowed Russian assault groups to advance further into the enemy's defense lines.

Watch Russian Precision Drone Strikes on Ukrainian Hideouts
The Russian Armed Forces have been using kamikaze drones, also known as suicide drones or loitering munitions, during the special military operation.
Russia's Defense Ministry has released footage showing precise drone strikes against enemy hideouts near the Berestovoye area.
Kamikaze drones are designed to locate and engage targets. The use of such drones has become a growing trend in modern warfare, and their adoption by the Russian military reflects its commitment to remaining at the forefront of military innovation. These drones are primarily used to neutralize enemy targets, such as tanks, artillery, and other military assets, in order to support ground troops and reduce the risk of friendly casualties.
Watch Russian UAVs Eliminate Camouflaged Ukrainian Artillery
The Russian Armed Forces have increasingly turned to the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the special military operation. These drones are used for a variety of purposes, including reconnaissance, surveillance, target acquisition, precision strike, and intelligence gathering.
The Russian Defense Ministry has released footage showing the Zala reconnaissance UAV detecting camouflaged artillery guns of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and their destruction with Lancets kamikaze drones.
During the aerial reconnaissance, the UAV crew discovered two camouflaged US-made Ukrainian M777 howitzers and a D-30 artillery piece. They were destroyed with Lancet loitering munitions. The drone operators eliminated the enemy equipment with a direct strike.
