"There is a front, their positions. They take off from there, put the battery on them, that is, their drones burn out. A signal arrives, after which I move to that wall. From there, I work. I'm still watching the situation," he said.

The fighter explained that there are always special groups on the line of contact to intercept tactical drones of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which are called "bird catchers" in military slang.

These groups use anti-drone guns, which disable enemy reconnaissance equipment, he added.
