Drone Shows Intense Close Combat Between Ukrainian And Russian Troops In Kherson During Ukraine War

A resident of Kherson captured drone footage that gives a truly unusual and rare look at close fighting between elements of two professional armies.
The footage was shot on February 24th during the struggle for Kherson at the Antonovsky Bridge.
Without context, the photos depict a convoy of Mechanized Armored Vehicles, including two BRDM-2s, and a group of roughly 12-16 mounted infantry marching south to check the ruins of a disabled artillery convoy. What they don't realize is that around three squads of enemy infantry, totaling 20-30 soldiers, are already waiting for them west of the road, preparing to launch a close-range ambush.

Now for some background on the footage.
