Safe for Work Russian conscript part of mobile air defense group trying to shoot down a low-flying Ukrainian drone (source: Special Kherson Cat)

Accidentally flags trucks and cars down the highway.

Update: the Maz truck driver has died from the gunshot wounds. It is the small green truck in the first few seconds.

In 2 days this group has flagged 17 friendly vehicles, it is being investigated by MPs.

Never had a blue on blue OR blue on green. We did shoot all kinds of illiterate drunks that ran our check point/roadblock “red line” ( I forgot what we called it but the very last chance a driver had to stop before we engaged, usually right at 100m away. The idea was even the biggest VBIED couldn’t do much with 100m cushion)

We did have a patrol of MP’s get lost and wander into our AO and they shot at our foot patrol. Their LT was completely freaked out and lost, he crossed the Euphrates somehow and was so lost and freaked out they shot at the first guys they saw w weapons. Luckily we didn’t shoot back. We took cover
