Ukraine and Russia are engaged in an ongoing conflict, with Ukraine's defensive lines and use of drones being crucial in the war. Ukrainian forces are utilizing innovative tactics, such as using fiber optic fpv drones, electronic warfare systems, and heavy drones for precision mining of Russian logistical routes. Russia is also employing new strategies, including recruitment efforts and the use of advanced drones and anti-vehicle landmines.

"Watching this Russian detonate a landmine at very close range one wonders what kind of culture produces this reckless behavior with such poor regard for his own life. Russians destroy a PFM-1 Petal anti-personnel landmine with a shotgun. Keep in mind that @CAT_UXO says that when this blast landmine explodes hearing damage can occur up to 5m and secondary fragmentation can be propelled to a radius of [--] to 100m. https://t.co/StgoMq4MAl Russians destroy a PFM-1 Petal anti-personnel landmine with a shotgun.

"Serhii Flash Beskrestnov has witnessed the vast scale of the comprehensive operations of the Ukrainian SBU to track and document every Russian crime and atrocity. No one will go unpunished. 1/ 1/ The war between Russia and Ukraine stretches far beyond the trenches. Kyiv is waging a shadow war hunting Russian war criminals worldwide.

"Finnish world shotgun champion Kim Leppnen took on FPV drones simulating attacking him. He failed on the first straight-on attack not prepared for the high speed of the FPV. He successfully adapted but he is the best shooter in the world and you dont get a redo in Ukraine. 1/ Ukrainian soldiers test the effects of shotgun cartridges on attacking FPV drones. Apparently knocking down an FPV with a shotgun is a challenge. https://t.co/UIa4jbigNb Ukrainian soldiers test the effects of shotgun cartridges on attacking FPV drones.
