Ukrainian forces shoot down Russian drones with Buk missile system

UKRAINIAN forces shoot down Russian drones with deadly Buk missile systems.

The images show the system firing its missile at the enemy drone. The missile shoots into the sky and after a few seconds, it can be seen exploding as it hits its target.

The video was obtained from the Central Air Command of the Ukrainian Air Force, on Sunday, August 21, along with a statement saying: ‘Military personnel of the anti-aircraft missile unit of the Air Command 'Centre' destroyed another UAV today in the south-eastern direction.'

Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24 in what the Kremlin is still calling a ‘special military operation'.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that between February 24 and August 22, Russia had lost about 45,400 personnel, 1,919 tanks, 4,230 armoured combat vehicles, 1,032 artillery units, 266 multiple launch rocket systems, 145 air defence systems, 234 warplanes, 198 helicopters, 815 drones, 194 cruise missiles, 15 warships, 3,149 motor vehicles and fuel tankers, and 99 units of special equipment.
