Artillery & Rocket Strikes – Page 5

This footage shows a Ukrainian ground kamikaze drone carrying a 300 kg explosive charge striking a building occupied by a group of eight Russian soldiers. The drone crashes into the structure and detonates inside, demonstrating the growing use of unmanned ground systems in frontline assault operations and urban combat.

A Ukrainian soldier’s camera captured the moment an enemy FPV drone suddenly struck a ground robotic vehicle delivering supplies to frontline positions. Because the robotic courier had stopped in an open area, nearby troops hesitated to approach it immediately — a decision that likely saved their lives when the drone attack occurred.

Laser’s Group carried out a strike on a concentration of Russian military equipment deep in the rear areas of the Luhansk region. Among the destroyed targets were a fully loaded 9T452 transport-loader vehicle and a command-and-staff vehicle belonging to the 9K57 Uragan multiple launch rocket system. According to reports, the Ukrainian bomber drone that destroyed the transport-loader vehicle was itself lost in the resulting ammunition detonation.

In less than a week, Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces “Raid” Regiment struck three Russian air defense systems. A 2S6 “Tunguska” was hit using a Bulava strike drone, while two Pantsir-S1 systems were targeted with RAM-2 drones.

This footage shows a HIMARS strike destroying the crew of a Russian ZALA reconnaissance drone in the Donetsk region. The video was released by Ukraine’s Black Forest Artillery Reconnaissance Brigade, a unit known for detecting and striking enemy targets deep in the rear.

A Russian Ural truck loaded with ammunition was destroyed while in motion. The strike triggered a powerful explosion, resulting in the loss of the vehicle and its driver.

In the Vovchansk direction of the Kharkiv region, Russian forces reportedly attempted to rush through a known kill zone to avoid FPV drone strikes. Instead, their vehicle hit a mine before reaching the area, stopping the advance.

In February 2026, the special operations company of the Lava Unmanned Systems Regiment of the Khartiia Corps, with support from Khartiia Brigade forces, carried out a robotic assault against Russian infantry positions in Kupiansk. According to the released account, the operation eliminated 10 occupying troops holding a position inside the city. Rockets fired from an unmanned ground vehicle, together with a kamikaze ground robot carrying a large explosive payload, destroyed the enemy strongpoint. The strike reportedly cleared the area and allowed Ukrainian units to move into the position afterward.

Counter-battery units of the 19th Rocket Brigade used HIMARS systems to strike Russian towed artillery positions in the Zaporizhzhia direction. According to reports, the strikes destroyed or damaged two 122 mm D-30 howitzers, two 152 mm Msta-B guns, and one 152 mm Giatsint-B artillery piece. The operation targeted enemy firepower supporting frontline positions.

Kostiantynivka has become a ghost city, coming under constant Russian shelling. Occupying forces continue to strike the city with artillery, multiple launch rocket systems, guided bombs, and heavy aerial bombs, causing further destruction to residential areas and civilian infrastructure. Once a living industrial city, it is now being steadily erased - leaving behind empty streets, shattered buildings, and constant danger for those still trapped there.
