The fighting is gradually approaching Kherson. Footage has been published of four Russian FAB-500 air bombs equipped with UMPK modules hitting a temporary deployment point and logistics center of the Ukrainian army in Kherson. The bombs were dropped by a Russian Su-34 frontline fighter-bomber. The video was filmed from two angles. According to one version, there were three FAB-500 bomb strikes. The fourth explosion may have been the detonation of something in the building.

Rare footage of a direct hit by a Russian FAB-1500M-54 aerial bomb on a building in Kupyansk was published by a local resident. The bomb was dropped by a Su-34 fighter-bomber. Judging by the video, the operator knew that the bomb would hit. Apparently, the information that the abandoned 9-story building houses a control center for Ukrainian drones is true. It is worth noting that since last year, the Ukrainian army began preparing Kupyansk for defense, the outskirts of the city are already empty. The bomb did not hit the foundation of the building, thanks to which the house did not collapse, and the quality of the Soviet construction also has an effect.

Footage of a massive breakthrough by a Russian mechanized group in the area of the village of Malaya Tokmachka in the Orekhov direction. The goal of the breakthrough was to enter the eastern outskirts of the village of Malaya Tokmachka and land troops, which was ultimately achieved. In such a large battle, losses of equipment are naturally inevitable, this is shown in the video. It is worth noting that in this area, the Ukrainian army had a well-organized defense and the Zaporizhzhya section of the front was considered stable. The exact type of Russian equipment used could not be determined due to the poor quality of the video. It was reported that 15 armored vehicles and about 20 light vehicles were used, including ATVs, buggies and motorcycles. The Russian mechanized group used tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, BMDs and armored personnel carriers, the equipment is equipped with protection against drones. To repel the attack, the Ukrainian army used FPV drones and artillery. The Ukrainian army is reportedly planning a counterattack. The video is shortened and shows the use of equipment and the landing of troops.

Footage of a Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile hitting a Ukrainian M142 HIMARS MLRS. The HIMARS MLRS was developed in the United States in 1996 and until recently was the most effective in the Ukrainian army. But over the past three years, at least 79 HIMARS MLRS installations have been destroyed in Ukraine, according to Russian media. Russian drone operators tracked the entire route of the HIMARS MLRS. The video was filmed on the outskirts of the village of Starovarvarovka, located northwest of the city of Druzhkovka in Donbass. Judging by the video, the HIMARS MLRS was destroyed with its personnel. The official Pentagon report states that as of October 14, 2022, Ukraine received 38 HIMARS MLRS, and additional MLRS may be delivered by the end of 2022. Also in 2022, another 11 M270 MLRS MLRS were delivered from the UK and Italy, and 5 MARS II MLRS were delivered by Germany. In total, in 2022, Ukraine officially already had 54 HIMARS MLRS, M270 MLRS, and MARS II MLRS in service.

The first footage of the use in Ukraine of the Russian UAV "Gerbera", equipped with a warhead. The UAV "Gerbera" is considered a junior version of the Russian drones "Geran-2". The video shows the strike of the Russian UAV "Gerbera" on the Ukrainian modified SAM "Buk-M1", also called FrankenSAM. The FrankenSAM project is an American program designed to adapt Western missiles for air defense systems of Soviet manufacture. It is supposed to equip Ukrainian air defense systems with AIM-9, AIM-7 and RIM-7 missiles. The location of the shooting is not reported, judging by the video, as a result of the drone strike, the radar of the Ukrainian air defense "Buk-M1" was damaged.

Careful now
We will have the usual suspects claim:
- Russia lost 4 FAB-500s in combat
- Ukrainian buildings successfully intercepted and destroyed 4 x FAB-500

Servicemen of the 40th Guards Marine Brigade of Russia demonstrated the use of kamikaze drones "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky" in battles in Ukraine.
The video shows rare high-quality footage of Russian FPV drones on the Ukrainian self-propelled howitzer "CAESAR" and the artillery tractor ATS-59G. The 155-mm wheeled self-propelled howitzer "Caesar" has been produced in France by Nexter since 2002. One could say that the drones literally hunted for the Ukrainian self-propelled howitzer "CAESAR".
First, the Russian drone attacked the self-propelled howitzer "CAESAR" in a camouflaged position, after which the Ukrainian crew tried to take the howitzer to a safer place. During the trip, the Russian drone attacked the howitzer again. After that, the servicemen abandoned the howitzer. Then, to evacuate the self-propelled gun "CAESAR", a Ukrainian artillery tractor ATS-59G arrived, but after another drone attack, the artillery tractor was also abandoned. It is worth noting that the artillery tractor ATS-59G was not damaged by the first drone strike and the howitzer could have been saved. Later, the drones simply destroyed all the equipment.
