USF hit enemy "Strela" along with its crew
According to the USF command, the enemy air defense system in the Donetsk region was discovered by operators of the 413th "Raid" battalion during a reconnaissance mission. The "Strela-10" immediately launched missiles.
But the drone pilot managed to maneuver and dodge the strike, after which the occupiers tried to hide the installation in a forest strip.
Thanks to the preservation of the device and the skill of the operators, the "Strela" was tracked down during a change of position and a precise strike was delivered. The air defense installation was hit along with the crew.
