Ukrainian sniper's precision brings down russian drones
It's like a scene from a Ukrainian sniper movie. The soldier demonstrated extraordinary skills by shooting at Russian drones. The video of the incident, which was published online, resembles a computer game. The footage is impressive because the sniper had no easy task.
Ukrainian soldiers have repeatedly shown on the front lines that they are well-trained, both in aviation and infantry. The Ukrainian army also has incredibly effective snipers, as evidenced by the recording that appeared online.
It shows a Ukrainian sniper shooting at incoming Russian drones. The soldier shoots at successive drones, neutralizing them in combat. For the purpose of neutralizing drones, he uses a .308 calibre weapon. This type of weapon is commonly used, for example, for hunting large game (deer, boar, etc.).
A sniper with the 3rd company of the Materyk Battalion, call sign "Mielkii" ("Little One"), shoots down Russian drones with a 308-caliber rifle in the Vovchansk direction., wrote Ukrainian war blogger and former politician Anton Herashchenko on the platform X.
The recording was originally published on Telegram by soldiers from the Operational-Tactical Group Kharkiv. The video material shown is impressive. In the few-second video, you can see the sniper following the "escaping drone" with his scope.
The sniper fired several shots at the military aircraft. He ultimately managed to shoot down the enemy's drone.
