The 11th Brigade of the Ukrainian National Guard used a remote controlled FPV bomb drone to destroy a Russian Murom-M surveillance system in the vicinity of Oleshky, just south of Kherson city.

The Murom-M is an advanced camera system incorporating thermal sensors for around-the-clock autonomous threat detection. The system was being used as a sentry to watch the M14 bridge for any Ukrainian advances.

The loss of the surveillance system will force Russian troops to expend manpower for physical sentry duties until the system can be replaced.
