Drone Warfare – Ukraine War Videos – Page 11

Naval forces of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) have released footage showing the interception and boarding of two container ships belonging to European shipping giant MSC in the Strait of Hormuz. The video is filmed from multiple angles, including aerial drone shots and onboard footage from the boarding team, providing a detailed view of the operation. The release appears aimed at demonstrating control over the strategic waterway.

Video circulating online, reportedly published by Russian sources, captures the moment of an MLRS strike on the Korabelnyi district. The footage shows the impact and resulting explosions in the area.

The Sapsan crew of the 105th Border Detachment “Khymera” reportedly used a STING interceptor drone developed by Wild Hornets to bring down a Russian Shahed UAV. According to the published description, the target drone was equipped with an R-60 air-to-air missile, or what may have been its mockup. The interception highlights the continuing evolution of Russian long-range drones and the growing role of Ukrainian interceptor systems in countering them.

US Marines conducted a boarding operation on the sanctioned tanker Tifani in the Indian Ocean, in a move aimed at tightening enforcement against vessels linked to Iran. The 330-meter tanker was reportedly carrying around 2 million barrels of oil loaded earlier this month on Iran’s Kharg Island. According to tracking data, the vessel passed Dondra Head on April 19 and entered Southeast Asian waters on April 20, after which US forces boarded the ship.

Fighters of the 43rd Separate Mechanized Brigade detected a group of Russian troops from the 153rd Tank Regiment attempting to reach the eastern part of Kupiansk-Vuzlovyi under cover of bad weather and low visibility. Four were eliminated on approach. Two others managed to enter a building, where they attempted to raise a flag. Ukrainian forces offered them a chance to surrender — one accepted, while the other was neutralized.

Pilots of the SIGNUM unit continued night operations in the Lyman direction, targeting enemy movement and infrastructure. A Russian vehicle attempting to reach positions under cover of darkness was detected and hit by a fiber-optic FPV drone. Subsequent strikes targeted individual infantry, a communications antenna, a concealed shelter, and a utility vehicle, disrupting coordination and mobility of enemy forces in the area.

Ukrainian Special Operations Forces conducted a series of drone strikes over the past week, targeting enemy arsenals, warehouses, and logistics hubs in occupied areas of Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia regions. The targets were located along a key supply route used by Russian forces to connect mainland Russia with Crimea and transport troops, equipment, and supplies. In Mykilske, Makedonivka, and Markove near Mariupol, SOF middle-strike units hit three arsenals, three supply depots, and two logistics hubs. Additional strikes targeted a repair base and a command location in Hamivka, Zaporizhzhia region, as well as a rear support area in Pryazovske. In the settlement of Terpinnia, located along a branch of the same route toward Tokmak, Ukrainian drones struck a material supply depot and another logistics hub used by enemy forces.

Border guards of Ukraine’s Forpost Brigade are intercepting enemy drones on the Southern Slobozhanskyi axis. The footage highlights the unit’s ongoing work to detect, track, and neutralize hostile UAVs, helping protect Ukrainian positions from aerial surveillance and attack.

Near Myropillia in the Sumy region, fighters of the 21st Brigade repelled a Russian assault involving three armored vehicles. The attack was stopped by precise Ukrainian drone strikes. The assault failed, and Russian forces withdrew with losses.

A Ukrainian FPV drone strike destroyed a Russian TOS-1A “Solntsepyok” heavy flamethrower system in the Zaporizhzhia region. The hit triggered a powerful explosion, likely caused by the detonation of onboard munitions, resulting in the complete loss of the system.
