Russian trenches
  • Russia appears to be adding protective screens to its trenches to hide its troops' movements.

Russia appears to be adding protective screens to its trenches to hide its troop movements from Ukrainian drones.

A video posted to Telegram by soldiers from Ukraine's Marine Corps shows a first-person view, or FPV, drone striking a trench lined with protective screens.

The post claimed that the video showed the "destruction of personnel of the Russian occupation forces," but it is unclear from the footage if anyone was actually hit.
