POV footage of Russian soldiers hitting landmine and fighting off FPV drone

Two soldiers of Russia’s Guards Motor Rifle Regiment were caught in a trap: the road was mined, and those mines were guarded by a drone. Their quad bike was destroyed by the mine, leaving the soldiers stranded in open ground with no cover. Perfect opportunity for a drone to pick them off.

The drone circled overhead, menacingly patient. The soldiers had little hope but to lay down suppressing fire, and hope that their reflexes were quicker than the drone’s operator’s.
