The Ukrainian Special Operations Forces together with the Security Service and marine reconnaissance men discovered and destroyed a Solntsepek heavy flamethrower system, which was used by Russian troops to fire at Ukrainian positions on Dnipro's left bank in the Kherson region.

"In the Kherson sector, the Special Operations Forces operators, in cooperation with the Security Service of Ukraine and scouts of the 140th Reconnaissance Battalion, discovered a Russian TOS-1A Solntsepek flamethrower system. The enemy used the flamethrower system to fire at the Ukrainian troops’ positions at the bridgehead on Dnipro's left bank in the Kherson region," the statement says. 

The Russian Solntsepek was destroyed with the help of striking UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles).
