Footage released by a Ukrainian sniper conducting harassment operations near Avdiivka captures the moment a Russian Soldier stands in the open just a little too long. It appears as if the round hit the Russian in the shoulder and impacted the ground behind him, but it's difficult to tell from this angle. If you look closely, you can see that there is a second Russian behind him in the building, who appears to grab his injured friend and pull him back into hard cover. They were likely in that building for a long time if they didn't have any smoke grenades on hand.
