Russian air unit witnesses Ukrainian drone killing of civilians (GRAPHIC VIDEO)
Audio obtained by RT has captured the horrified reaction of a Russian air unit after they witnessed the deliberate murder of two Ukrainian civilians in a drone attack by Kiev’s forces.
Highly graphic footage of the incident emerged online earlier this week, purportedly taken outside the village of Petropavlovka near the town of Kupyansk in Ukraine’s Kharkov Region. The town has seen intense fighting over the past several weeks, with Ukrainian units ending up encircled in the area, according to the Russian Defense Ministry.
The murder of civilians was observed by a Russian surveillance quadcopter, with its operator helplessly watching the Ukrainian attack. The incident infuriated the operator, expletive-heavy audio obtained by RT suggests, with the Russian serviceman heard branding the Ukrainian drone operator an “as*hole” and a “c**t.”
The drone video shows two elderly civilians and a small dog attempting to flee the combat zone and head towards Russian positions. One of the men was carrying a white flag, footage shows.
The civilian with the flag was attacked first, with the FPV drone seen hovering in front of him before striking him. The man was killed on the spot and his pet fatally wounded.
The second civilian, shocked by the attack, stopped by the victim’s body, making the sign of the cross. He was able to walk only a short distance down the road, eventually dropping to his knees and praying before being struck down and killed by another FPV drone.
