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.

Demonstration footage shows the Mark I anti-drone missile, developed by Estonia’s Frankenburg Technologies, during a live-fire event. The missile is designed to intercept aerial targets at ranges of up to 2 km and altitudes of around 1.5 km, using an electro-optical seeker and solid-fuel propulsion for rapid interception. Frankenburg and Poland’s state-owned PGZ announced a production partnership in Poland for the Mark I system, with planned capacity of up to 10,000 missiles per year.

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.

Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces achieved a world-first by intercepting a Shahed-type drone using a STING interceptor launched from a surface platform. The operation was carried out by a division of unmanned surface systems within the 412th Nemesis Brigade. The successful engagement highlights a new approach to countering aerial threats using surface-launched interceptor drones. Ukrainian units indicate that further developments are underway, with plans to integrate STING launches from unmanned surface vessels as a routine capability.

Crews of Yak-52 aircraft from the 11th Army Aviation Brigade “Kherson” are engaged in combat operations against Shahed-type kamikaze drones. The aircraft are being used to detect and intercept incoming UAV threats, supporting air defense efforts against drone attacks.

This is what life looks like in the frontline settlement of Komyshuvakha, according to footage shared on social media. People here are not truly living — they are simply trying to survive under постоянне shelling and constant attacks, with every day shaped by danger, destruction, and uncertainty.

Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces struck a logistics base of the secretive Russian drone unit “Rubicon” in occupied Mangush, Donetsk region, on the night of April 17. The operation was carried out by SOF middle-strike drone units, with explosions and large fires reported at the site. “Rubicon” is known for deploying a wide range of Russian unmanned systems against Ukrainian forces, including FPV drones (both standard and fiber-optic), strike drones such as Molniya and Lancet, as well as reconnaissance UAVs like ZALA, Orlan, and SuperCam, along with naval drones.

A Shahed drone struck a depot in Dnipro, with the moment of impact captured on video. Before hitting the target, the drone clipped and tore down overhead contact lines.

A video recorded by a Russian serviceman shows the current state of Bakhmut in the Donetsk region, highlighting significant destruction across the city. The footage captures heavily damaged urban areas, including residential buildings and infrastructure. No visible signs of large-scale reconstruction can be observed in the video.

According to released battlefield reports and footage, Ukrainian strike units carried out a series of coordinated attacks in a single day against Russian military targets in occupied Crimea, Donetsk, and Zaporizhzhia regions. The reported targets included air defense systems such as Pantsir-S1, Osa-AK, and Buk-M1, as well as two reported Iskander missile support sites, fuel storage facilities, and an ammunition depot linked to the 758th Logistics Center of the Black Sea Fleet. Additional strikes reportedly hit a workshop and UAV storage site associated with the Rubikon unit in Donetsk region. Notably, some of the published strike footage reportedly began specifying the weight of the warhead used, with several clips indicating a 60 kg payload.
