Russian attack drones, artillery wipe out US-made M777 howitzers in Ukraine — top brass
The ministry also uploaded a video made from a drone showing the destruction of US howitzers
MOSCOW, May 18. /TASS/. Russian attack drones supported by artillery units eliminated a Ukrainian firing position of US-made 155mm M777 howitzers near the settlement of Podgornoye, Russia’s Defense Ministry reported on Wednesday.

"In the area of the settlement of Podgornoye, the Russian teams of unmanned aerial vehicles and artillery reconnaissance systems established the coordinates of a firing position of US-made 155mm M777 howitzers used by the Ukrainian military.

The operators of unmanned aerial vehicles delivered a missile strike on the firing position of the battery of American howitzers, damaging several guns," the ministry said in a statement.

After the missile strikes by the Russian drones, the Ukrainian forces tried to hide in a forest and shelter the towed M777 howitzers there, the ministry said.

"As soon as the Ukrainian militants concentrated prime movers and guns in the forest, they came under an artillery strike. All the equipment and American howitzers were eliminated," the Russian Defense Ministry said.

The ministry also uploaded a video made from a drone showing the destruction of US howitzers.

One of those looked like a drone bomb and who knows what happened to them when they went into the woods. At least some of them would have been damaged bare minimum

That's what I thought until I realized the first photo was the same guy. They undressed him a little, he's Russian. He probably got the jacket off a dead Ukranian.

No I mean Russian regular Army can’t put random shit on. Just like American I assume? Maybe it’s an LNR/DNR dude? But who knows for sure

Not sure, these photos are most likely from Luhansk/Donyetsk. American units, it depends on the unit but overall we couldn't just slap on anything we liked. Boots, stuff on guns and gloves were different though, there was a lot of freedom with that.

- Some dead Ukranians
