None of us chose this horror. Putin did
The SBU reports this.
During the reconnaissance operation, the SBU Zaporizhzhia Department intelligence officers detected a Russian position of the Solntsepyok heavy flamethrower system, which the invading forces call the "pride" of the Russian military-industrial complex. It was this system that was supposed to strike at the positions of the Ukrainian military, which are carrying out a counteroffensive in this direction, the statement says.
"Thanks to the coordination of the Security Service and artillery of the Armed Forces, the TOS-1A Solntsepyok was destroyed with the crew and full ammunition," the SBU said.
The flamethrower system was hit with a HIMARS missile.
