#Ukrainian ground robots have destroyed a #Russian position in #Kupiansk - all by themselves, led by #Lava unit from #Khartiia, in February 2026.
Missiles and explosives from the robots have cleared the position of 10 #Russian soldiers. Our Defenders could safely enter the position afterwards.
So impressive
