Russian soldiers have released footage of an attack on their positions near the settlement of Tonenke, using an unidentified type of high-precision guided munition.
“This is how the ‘nice day’ looks in Tonenke,” wrote the Russian military.
The video shows the munition hurtling at a staggering speed and impacting one of the buildings.
Russian military bloggers stated that it could be either the French-guided aviation bomb AASM-250 Hammer or the American GBU-39B SDB. However, they note that neither of these aerial bombs resembles the munition used in the attack on Russian military positions.
