Moment Putin’s blundering Dad’s Army proudly shoot down ‘Ukrainian’ drone in TV debut… only to find its one of their own
Putin’s foolish Dad’s Army gleefully shot down what they believed to be a Ukrainian attack drone, only to discover it was actually their own.
In front of Russian official television, a rookie soldier is seen in hilarious video taking down the 73,000 FPV and then bragging about it.
Olga Kurlaeva, a well-known military correspondent for the official media, was invited by the Belgorod territorial guard to demonstrate how they protect their border area.
They can be seen shooting at what they believed to be a reconnaissance drone in the manner of a Ukrainian Furia aircraft with their small guns.
The drone can be seen descending after several rounds of gunfire have been fired.
We shot down [a Ukrainian] Furia, according to the Russian captain who shot it down. There was an aircraft-type drone in the air for reconnaissance.

Kurlaeva even interrupted the video to compliment the Russian Dad’s Army’s abilities.
“The Belgorod men are so tough that they use their rifles to shoot down Ukrainain aircraft-type drones,” she claimed.
“Real people live in the border area.”
However, the fact that it wasn’t a Ukrainian drone was the only issue.
When it was discovered that the drone was actually a valuable piece of Russian surveillance equipment, outrage quickly ensued.
“The Belgorod men are so tough that they apparently committed friendly fire in front of the cameras,” wrote one irate military correspondent.
Faced in red Kurlaeva was compelled to take down the video and her post.
According to reports, the military high command reprimanded Putin’s home guard, who will now undertake extensive training in drone recognition.
Shortly after being attacked, Kurlaeva attempted to protect the Dad Army.
“The object was approaching a populated area,” she stated. What were they meant to accomplish? Simply stand and observe?
She said that Russian border guards on the scene were equally blind to the fact that this was a Putin drone.
Local volunteers who have been judged unsuitable to fight wars make up the Belgorod territorial guard.
Call signs like “Farmer” and “Car Mechanic” are used by the Russian Dad’s Army, and many of them are too old or in poor health to serve in Putin’s invading army.
It follows another humiliating blunder in Kursk where Putin’s own attack chopper utterly destroyed a Russian military column.
As Vlad’s military fails to stop Ukraine’s valiant assault, shocking images seem to show the self-propelled artillery turned to ashes and severely damaged.
At first, propagandists boasted of striking an armored column in Ukraine.
Telegram channels then reported that the Ka-52M had been hit by friendly fire on its own side.
One 2S19M2 Msta-S self-propelled gun is thought to have been destroyed and another damaged in the claimed friendly fire event.
The incident took place in the Belovsky district of the Kursk region, close to the settlement of Krivitskiye Budy.
MEAT GRINDER WAR
Putin had his worst day of the war yesterday, with Russian casualties per day reaching their highest level since the war began.
According to Ukraine’s defiant military, Moscow lost more than 2,000 soldiers in the last day, but Putin’s men are still advancing through the nation at a startling rate.
According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces, there were 2,030 fatalities on Thursday, the greatest number being 1,950 on November 12.
With more than 738,000 Russian soldiers still dying under Vlad’s orders, it demonstrates that Putin’s meat grinder strategy is still utterly failing.
However, Russia has achieved success on the battlefield in spite of the alarming statistics that keep rising.

Ukraine is also finding hope in their own statistics, which indicate that throughout the past two years, they have destroyed hundreds of Russian war weaponry.
The Armed Forces claim to have removed hundreds of warships, planes, helicopters, 10,000 tanks, and nearly 20,000 drones from the dictator’s arsenal.
