Ukrainian Drone Operators Take Out Russian Artillery

While drone strike videos are nothing new to the Ukraine conflict, or to the internet at this point, this video differs from most in that it shows the operators controlling the drones. It appears that the operator to the right is acting as a spotter, guiding the operator of the explosive drone, left, to the target. In this instance, the target is a Russian D-20 152MM howitzer. At 0:26, we see the strike from the spotter's point-of-view.
