Ukraine Army hits Russian command post with NATO-standard howitzer

The artillery men of the 128th Separate Mountain Assault Zakarpattia Brigade have hit a Russian command post from a distance of more than 20 kilometers with a NATO-standard howitzer.

The relevant statement was made by the 128th Separate Mountain Assault Zakarpattia Brigade on Facebook, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“The artillery men of the 128th Separate Mountain Assault Zakarpattia Brigade have hit a senior staff base of one of Russian military units. The Z-marked military off-road vehicle and several rashists standing nearby were destroyed. The shot was fired from a howitzer delivered to Ukraine as part of NATO’s assistance,” the report states.

The slow-motion drone video shows the impact of the 155 mm projectile and powerful explosion. The target was located more than 20 kilometers away and, thus, the accurate shot clearly demonstrates the high precision of weapons, which the Armed Forces of Ukraine have already received and will receive in the future.
