Shahed-type strike UAVs are dropping anti-tank mines on the roads behind the Ukrainian army during their flight. One of these drops was geolocated.
OSINT analyst Dominik (@99Dominik_) wrote about this on the social network X (Twitter).
He referred to a video published the day before by the Telegram channel "НгП раZVедка" associated with the occupation army.
The russians showed a video that allegedly shows the dropping of mines on the road.
Earlier, reports appeared on the network that the occupiers began to hang cluster anti-tank mines under the wings of the Shaheds. The dropping of such ammunition occurs directly during the flight of the drone.
The video published by the russians shows the moment of the dropping of mines on the road.
🤬 The Russian Armed Forces publish footage of a "Shahed" dropping anti-tank mines specifically on roads.

According to our military, this is how the Russians want to carry out terrorist attacks on public roads. pic.twitter.com/HeLXbUL748
OSINT analyst geolocated footage and established that the mine-dropping took place over a section of the E50 road between Pokrovsk, Donetsk Region, and Slovianka, Dnipropetrovsk Region. Then this road leads to Pavlohrad.
Probably, in this way the occupiers want to complicate the logistics of the group of the Defense Forces of Ukraine, concentrated in the Pokrovsk area.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, the day before, the Ukrainian OSINT project CyberBoroshno stated that the russians were setting up a launch site for Shaheds on the territory of the occupied Donetsk Airport.
Recall, on July 4, the commander of the Armed Forces of Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces, Robert ("Madyar") Brovdi, stated that in the near future the russians would launch 1,000 or more Shaheds daily.
