A spectacular video of the drone strike was shared by Ukrainian war correspondent Andriy Tsaplienko on Telegram.

“Russia's newest $2,500,000 BMD-4M airborne combat vehicle met a $500 Ukrainian FPV drone. The ammunition detonated, and the IFV turned into a fireworks display,” he commented.

The drone was controlled by operators from the newly created 77th Detached Airmobile Brigade.
