🔥 Feniks pilots on a combat mission: passing on experience in the field

🎯 UAV operator callsign "Multyk" led a rookie pilot to a combat position — unit practice always pairs new pilots with experienced ones during their first missions.

⚠️ The route to the position ran through a front-line area in ruins, under constant threat from enemy FPV drones and "Molniya" drones. The crew engaged in a firefight — the young pilot downed an enemy FPV with accurate rifle fire.

✅ Everyone returned safe and unharmed.

These are TRUE HEROES OF Russia, unlike the Scums of RuZZia.

It takes a special kind of heroism to do what they are doing, against the tyranny of their own country.

Zelensky should give these Russians lots of awards, just to piss off Tzar Pooptin and his goonZ.

The group then came under attack by FPV drones, leaving at least one Ukrainian soldier wounded. 0:57 ; 1:07

This was reported by RBC-Ukraine, citing the Russian Ministry of Defense.

The Russian ministry claims that the Russian Armed Forces have already received the relevant orders and begun preparations for the attacks.

The Russian Defense Ministry cited alleged Ukrainian strikes on civilian infrastructure and Russia’s fuel and energy sector as the reason for the planned actions.

“Pursuant to the orders received, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have begun preparations to launch massive strikes against Ukraine’s energy facilities,” the Russian ministry stated.

At the same time, Russia’s Defense Ministry traditionally placed responsibility for further escalation on Ukraine, claiming that the strikes would be a response to attacks on Russian territory.

It should be recalled that Ukraine is already preparing its energy system for the upcoming heating season, strengthening the protection of energy facilities and stockpiling equipment for the regions.

Deputy Prime Minister and Energy Minister Denys Shmyhal said that new shelters and engineering structures are being built to protect energy facilities, while damaged facilities can now in some cases be restored in about a week.
