Soldiers of the 210th Separate Assault Regiment destroyed a Russian self-propelled artillery unit 2S1 “Gvozdika” in the direction of Zaporizhzhia.
The information was released on the unit’s official page on Telegram.
According to the statement, the target was hit by an FPV drone after identifying a camouflaged firing position. The drone operator executed the attack with precision, resulting in the neutralization of the Russian equipment.
The published images indicate that the target was a self-propelled gun 2S1 Gvozdika. The identification is based on design features of the system, such as the low-profile turret and the absence of a pronounced recoil mechanism above the barrel — typical elements of the model known as “Gvozdika”.
