Heroic Mission of Ukrainian National Guard Special Forces: Destroying Enemy Artillery at the Frontline
As part of ongoing efforts by Ukrainian defenders to ensure security and weaken the enemy in temporarily occupied territories, the special forces of the 2nd separate unit of the National Guard of Ukraine have demonstrated high professionalism and effectiveness in fighting Russian artillery. Their operations using modern reconnaissance tools and unmanned aerial vehicles allowed for precise detection and destruction of key enemy military targets – a mortar and a 152mm "Hyacinth-B" howitzer, which posed a threat to Ukrainian positions. According to the information from the Omega Special Purpose Center of the National Guard, the key role in this success was played by aerial reconnaissance, which helped identify the mortar on the Pokrovsk direction. The operation began with detailed monitoring using unmanned aerial platforms—modern systems that provide the most accurate information about the enemy's location. Once the target was detected, our specialists responded quickly and carried out an accurate strike, resulting in the spectacular detonation of ammunition and the destruction of enemy equipment. "During the day, the mortar, which regularly impeded our troops, was identified by aerial reconnaissance. Its destruction was made possible thanks to the precision of our work and high-tech equipment. After impact, the ammunition was irrevocably destroyed, and the weapon itself was turned into scrap metal during the detonation," reports the press center of Omega NGU. This operation once again confirms the efforts of Ukrainian special forces to destroy enemy artillery, which harms Ukrainian units and civilians. Another impressive episode was a successful strike by FPV drone operators from the "Wings of Omega" unit. They purposefully destroyed a 152mm "Hyacinth-B" howitzer, which Russian troops tried to hide in a dense forest among trees. Thanks to the vigilance and high professionalism of the drone operators, they were able to promptly locate the position, which was carefully concealed from ordinary surveillance means. The use of modern analytical and reconnaissance drone technologies enables our military not only to detect but also to effectively destroy enemy targets. This significantly weakens artillery pressure on Ukrainian positions and reduces potential losses among our defenders. Such operations once again highlight the importance of modern combat tools and the high level of tactical training of Ukrainian special forces, who work tirelessly for our security and independence. Overall, these successful destructions demonstrate that Ukrainian military personnel are capable of effectively countering and destroying the enemy using all available modern weapons and tactics. This is an important step on the long and arduous path to victory, which will undoubtedly come thanks to the coordinated efforts of our heroic defenders.
