FPV drone footage released by Ukrainian sources captures an attack on a lone Russian Soldier who was caught out in the open. As the drone approaches, the Russian makes a snap decision to toss his helmet at the device, and it appears to cause the device to detonate.

It's unclear if the Russian was killed or wounded in the attack. Judging from his proximity to the device, he was at the very least likely hit with a good amount of fragmentation from the drone, but there's a strong chance that his quick thinking kept him alive.
