Ukraine’s sky defenders stuck in a ruthless fight

A handful of Ukrainian troops such as evening light appeared to face an uneven battle from each other. Their mission – to shoot the 21st century killer drones with weapons made in the days of the dead.

This is a night battle in the northeastern region of Ukraine, which borders Russia.

After joining the troops, there was a threat to the heavens and there was tension and adrenaline on the ground.

Commander – Codenamed Jaeger – An Iranian design, one of the main weapons of Russia, was attached to a screen that shows the clusters of red dots. In the evening, Sumy and Chernihiv region had 30 in the neighboring region in the neighboring region.

Two rectangular trucks were taken into a cleansing – a gunner behind each heavy machine gun and scanned the skies. Trucks, currently wrapped by troops, light machine guns.

We could hear the propeller’s Wherring before you could not see the drone – it seems clear as it grew up in the sky. The troops opened fire – all the weapons flared together – but Drone disappeared. These cheap valuable long-distance weapons are terrified by Ukraine.

As often in the war, the humor blinks. “When this short man is nervous, you will know when the next doro will come,” Jaeger pointed to one of his team.

As the dark shutdown, drones were trying to come and test the troops – the Tracer sends a firefighter road throughout the sky. But how do these suicide drones feel?

“Well, it’s not very good,” said Jaeger, flawless, away. “As you can see, you feel a bit of sorrow – it happens in the rhythm.

He and his men, the “Mobile fire unit” from 117 territorial protection of Ukraine – only trying to defend their country, but. Most Russian drones fly with this region and deepen into Ukraine.

“They often come to the massive waves flying in different heights,” Jaeger said. “When a heavy cloud covers, they fly over the clouds and can’t see them. When it rains, it is very difficult to detect them.”

One hundred Shahs Drone is a standard for Sumy one night.

There is a farmer in his section) (“Now I’m doing something else in the fields” and there is a builder. Jaeger itself is a forest forest ranger and mixed martial arts.

Now he struggles the enemy where he can see it difficult.

“Every day, he says the same thing again and again.” “For us, it’s just like the GROUNDHOG Day.”

“The worst thing is that he has been” victim, builder, “and all this will last.”

Many drones in the heavens on Sumy, headed for the capital of Kiev. Jaeger and the people knew this. So ethically. Knowledge was a refrigerator.

Air raider Alert, warned Kyiv residents of coming drones. Russia is overnight overnight, more than 300, trying to overcome air protection and more than 300 a night. There were six places until the morning and the victims were withdrawn from the rubble. Following the days following The death toll rose to 30.

In the fourth summer of Ukraine, the fields around Sumy are a triangle with a triangle of tanks, which are the tanks around Sumy, with corn and sunflowers.

The picture was very different in the last fall. Ukrainian troops turned the tables with an attack on the border to Russia by holding the territory in the neighboring region of the Kursk.

Most of this year was forced, although Ukraine’s military chief recently said he had several territory. According to May, President Zelensky warned that 50,000 Russian troops were massively massive mass in Sumy.

As the Kremlin’s men slowly progressed in June, more than 200 villages and settlements were evacuated in Sumy, because the Kremlin’s men slowly moved.

President Putin wants the “buffer zone” along the border and speaks of threat to Summy.

“The city … is the next, regional center,” he said. “We don’t have to do Sumy, but I don’t rule it out.” It claims that forces are up to 12 kilometers (7.5 miles) inside the region.

WARNING: There are difficulties in the following section

Ukrainian Army President Gen Oleksandr Syrskyi stopped the Russian adventure, but the war has already scared Margaryta Husakova, 37, the village. He warned that his sister did not come because of the explosions.

“He came anyway,” said Margaryta, “and a moon, a quiet and peaceful month until it reaches the bus,” he was calm and peaceful. “

On the morning of May 17, sisters left the city with other relatives for travel.

“I remember how we came, I rode on the bus, we laughed, we were happy,” says Margaryta. “Then we started to leave and it was.”

The bus left by a Russian drone, In an attack that killed nine people – all civilians – including his mother, uncle and sister.

Margara with the crushing right arm from the wreckage – now caught by steel sticks.

He suffers what he lost and what he saw. Its description is graphics.

“I opened my eyes and no bus,” he said, began to break the sound. “I looked around me and my sister’s head was torn. My mother also stretched there, hit the temple. My uncle was off the bus, and the brain was exposed.”

We met in the Sum Bag-to-Admission Center for evacuaries in Sumy. Margarya sat in a wooden bench, looking for comfort from a cigarette. He said he planned to go to another relative’s house, but he was afraid that his eight could not be safe there.

“Maybe we should run further,” he added: “It’s scaring everywhere.”

“I was horrified for children, not for myself. I have to save them. It is important.”

As we raid an air, Siren’s voice did not respond to the place where the surface is placed – Margary. There was no one around us. “Now we are working for the explosions,” Ukraine explained the journalist “and only if they are high and close.”

US President Donald Trump does not claim that he can convey peace in Ukraine for a day. Iran bombed nuclear sites, rolled in a new war.

Negotiations between Russia and Ukraine are only the exchange of prisoners and return the bodies. President Putin went to the explosion and increased their demands.

“Only our four are survived today.”
