Translated from source:

Russians should not run away from Ukrainian drones - they will die of exhaustion.

This is a masterful video.

The Signum unit of the 93rd brigade found a Russian officer and began to pursue him with an FPV drone💥

The occupant ran for a long time, hid, pretended to be dead and fired back with a pistol. But all this did not save him - he was eventually eliminated. Three of his subordinates were also destroyed.

Thank you Signum for the great work and you for the donations for the drones!

    At this point I’m not sure that Russian soldiers are even taught that surrendering is a thing you can do. So many I’ve seen in completely unwinnable and imminently fatal situations yet they refuse to surrender to the Ukrainians.

    It seemed like his strategy of running through the trees in tight circles was successful and might have worked if he hadn’t stopped. I guess he got tired, but if he had kept it up for a while longer the drone operator might have screwed up and hit a tree or ran out of battery.

    Smart enough to nearly figure out a way to avoid a drone, not smart enough to stay home in his own country.

      Let’s not willfully ignore how many people are forcefully conscripted into the Russian military.

      Is one of those people the guy in the video? Doubtful. Still shouldn’t act like it’s a simple matter of “just go home 4head”.

    Looks like they were toying with him… 3/4 swoops over the soldier.

    Maybe that was them giving him the opportunity to surrender? Not sure.

    It looks like just one lone solider running around in the middle of nowhere. That may not be the reality, but it’s what it looks like. Just a goon being chased by a drone, then dying alone.

    “Reptile” is cool & all, but this was definitely a missed opportunity for “Yakkity Sax”
