    I wonder who was the Russian. If just another mobik, I’d say I’m glad we see everyday the Ukrainians making much better choices. Without more info, this seems wasteful way of spending a drone, and somewhat cruel.

      It would be cruel not to kill every intruder. Cruel to the Ukrainans.

      But maybe you wanted to point out that every wounded soldier takes up more resources than a dead soldier? Debatable if you think of how the ruzzkis torture and mistreat their personnel. That guy would have been killed anyway.

        You’re right. The wounded take more resources than the dead. As the Russians themselves have shown plenty of times. And we know they are not going to heal them and get them 100%. It’s both somewhat cruel and somewhat merciful. At the end, it just does not seem like it was it a good use of a drone.

      It does seem like they are transporting a wounded combatant, so similar to targeting an ambulance in my opinion. Expensive piece of equipment to take out one healthy soldier and an ATV, and one soldier who was probably not going to even fight again
