The Harpoon unit has released footage showing how its operators use a drone equipped with a homemade shotgun to shoot down enemy UAVs.
The video highlights an improvised but effective approach to aerial defense, as Ukrainian drone teams continue adapting their tactics to counter enemy reconnaissance and attack drones in real time.
The “Apachi” UAV unit of the 81st Airmobile Brigade reported repelling the most massive enemy motorcycle assault of the year. On March 31, Russian forces deployed 16 motorcycles carrying up to 48 infantry, with 2–3 assault troops on each bike. The assault groups moved in formations of 3–4 vehicles from the area of Siversk. A significant portion of the attacking personnel was eliminated on approach to Ukrainian positions. Those who managed to break through were later neutralized by airborne troops and adjacent units.
Pilots of the Ukrainian Air Force carried out strikes against a number of enemy targets. The bombardment targeted positions and infrastructure used by opposing forces.
An Iranian missile reportedly struck a location hosting US military personnel in the Middle East. Details on the exact location, damage, and potential casualties are still being clarified as information continues to emerge.
This footage captures an intense attempt by a Ukrainian interceptor operator to bring down a Russian Molniya-2 drone. Gunfire can be seen coming from the ground as troops try to hit the target, while another Ukrainian FPV interceptor also makes a pass but narrowly misses.
What follows is a real aerial duel: the Russian drone keeps maneuvering to avoid being taken down, while the Ukrainian operator has to stay locked in, react instantly, and catch the target at exactly the right moment. A tense example of how fast and demanding drone interception has become on today’s battlefield.
Drones from the 225th Separate Assault Regiment freed two Ukrainian prisoners captured by Russian forces. Using only FPV drones and without infantry involvement, operators struck the escorting soldier. As the first drone approached, the captor panicked and failed to use the prisoners as cover, making a fatal decision. The operation was carried out in coordination with the 108th Brigade and other Ukrainian Defense Forces units.
An FPV drone strike caused a catastrophic ammunition detonation inside a Russian tank in the Pokrovsk direction of the Donetsk region. The blast resulted in a powerful explosion that tore off the turret and destroyed the vehicle.
The United States carried out a strike on a large Iranian ammunition depot in Isfahan using 2,000-pound bunker-buster bombs. The attack targeted hardened storage facilities, causing a powerful explosion and significant damage to the site. Further details on the extent of the destruction are being clarified.
This footage shows a Ukrainian STING interceptor drone recording the moment another STING takes down a Russian Shahed in the sky.
A rare angle on modern aerial combat, showing how interceptor drones are becoming an increasingly important tool against enemy kamikaze UAVs.
In this footage, the Ukrainian P1-Sun interceptor drone successfully shoots down a Russian Shahed attack drone in mid-air.
The strike highlights the growing role of specialized interceptor UAVs in defending the sky and countering long-range kamikaze drones.
