Russian Troops Shoot Down Ukrainian Drones With Assault Rifles | 6 UAVs Destroyed Near Freight Train [Video]

Russian Troops Shoot Down Ukrainian Drones With Assault Rifles | 6 UAVs Destroyed Near Freight Train

In a dramatic display of low-tech defense, Russian troops reportedly shot down six Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using assault rifles during an attempted drone attack on a freight train in the Zaporozhye Region. The encounter, captured on video and shared by RT, shows soldiers firing directly at incoming drones — destroying them mid-air before they could reach their target. The freight train was secured, and no damage was reported. According to Russian sources, this marks an increase in Ukraine’s drone attacks on civilian infrastructure — a trend Moscow says it will counter with any means necessary. #RussiaUkraineWar #DroneWarfare #RussianMilitary #UAVAttack #AssaultRifleDefense #UkraineConflict #Zaporozhye #RTNews #DroneStrike #FreightTrainAttack #GunfireVsDrones #MilitaryFootage #WarInUkraine #BreakingNews Also Read India, China, Brazil Could Be Hit Hard For Trading With Russia: NATO Secretary Rutte :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-china-brazil-could-be-hit-hard-for-trading-with-russia-nato-secretary-rutte-7802537.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Confirms F-16 Loss, Pilot Killed While Intercepting Russian Missiles And Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-confirms-f-16-loss-pilot-killed-while-intercepting-russian-missiles-and-drones-7786265.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.html?ref=DMDesc

Ukraine’s Most DEADLY Response After Failed Peace Talks | Strikes Sochi Killing 1 Civilian & Hits… [Video]

Ukraine’s Most DEADLY Response After Failed Peace Talks | Strikes Sochi Killing 1 Civilian & Hits…

In a dramatic escalation, Ukraine launched a wave of drone strikes on southern Russia, targeting Sochi — the famed Black Sea resort city — and its nearby Sirius technological and athletic hub. At least one woman was killed and another seriously injured when drone debris fell in Sochi’s central streets. Meanwhile, another UAV slammed into an oil terminal in Sirius, triggering emergency evacuations of students and tourists. Local sources described scenes of chaos, with air raid sirens blaring and as many as 20 explosions echoing across the city. This latest strike comes on the heels of Russia and Ukraine's third round of peace talks in Istanbul, which failed to secure a ceasefire. Moscow’s proposal for brief humanitarian truces and a major POW exchange involving 1,200 prisoners each was met with skepticism from Kyiv. Tensions remain sky-high as drone warfare escalates far from the battlefield, threatening Russian civilians and infrastructure. #UkraineRussiaWar #SochiAttack #UkraineDrones #BlackSeaStrike #DroneWarfare #SochiExplosion #RussiaUnderAttack #SiriusHub #CiviliansTargeted #RussiaUkraineConflict #PeaceTalksFail #PutinZelensky #IstanbulTalks #UkraineStrikesBack #OilTerminalHit #EvacuationsInSochi #AirRaidSirens #RussiaWarNews #ExplosionsInSochi #GeopoliticalTensions ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.122~

20 km “Kill Zone” SLAMS Putin’s Army | Russia STRUGGLES To Advance Amid Ukraine’s Aerial Onslaught [Video]

20 km “Kill Zone” SLAMS Putin’s Army | Russia STRUGGLES To Advance Amid Ukraine’s Aerial Onslaught

Ukraine's drone revolution is turning the tide of war. Along a 20 km “kill zone” near the frontline, kamikaze, surveillance, and bomber UAVs swarm the skies, making Russia's traditional advantages of tanks, artillery, and manpower nearly obsolete. Ukrainian commanders say drones now account for over 70% of successful strikes on Russian forces. Meanwhile, Russia adapts with new tactics—sending small groups on quad bikes to bait fire and launch counter-drone strikes. With European support rising and U.S. aid shifting under Trump’s NATO-based weapons plan, Ukraine banks on domestically produced long-range drones to hold ground and retaliate deep into Russia. The battlefield is no longer just about artillery—it's a race of innovation and aerial dominance #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #DroneWarfare #MilitaryDrones #UAVs #DroneStrike #UkraineDefense #RussianArmy #Zelensky #TrumpNATOPlan #KillZone #KamikazeDrones #DroneFrontline #EasternUkraine #MilitaryIntel #ArtilleryVsDrones #QuadBikeTactics #PatriotMissiles #DefenseStrategy #EuropeSupportsUkraine Also Read India, China, Brazil Could Be Hit Hard For Trading With Russia: NATO Secretary Rutte :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-china-brazil-could-be-hit-hard-for-trading-with-russia-nato-secretary-rutte-7802537.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Confirms F-16 Loss, Pilot Killed While Intercepting Russian Missiles And Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-confirms-f-16-loss-pilot-killed-while-intercepting-russian-missiles-and-drones-7786265.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~
