It's also overkill. So yeah it just makes no sense.
The War in the Ukraine

Footage of a Russian Iskander missile with a cluster warhead hitting a Ukrainian drone launch site. The video was filmed from a high altitude in Ukraine's Chernihiv region. According to Ukrainian media, a demining mission was being conducted. Russian media deny this and report damage to 8 units of equipment and the death of 10 drone operators and technical personnel. Judging by the video, the missile hit some equipment, but it is difficult to discern what it was.
Footage of the paired combat work of Russian 152-mm self-propelled howitzers "Giatsint-K", the 8th Guards Combined Arms Army of the "Center" group of forces, in the Krasnoarmeysk direction in the Donbass. The exact location of the shooting is not reported. The "Giatsint-K" howitzers fire at strongholds and drone control points of the Ukrainian army, located in abandoned houses. The firing range of the "Giatsint-K" howitzer, with "Krasnopol-M" shells, can reach 50 km.
That activity are suspicious tho.. Like if that mission is humanitarian or civil defense intended.. why they did not put internationally recognized signs ?
Like Ukrainian publications so far seems to skip that aspect.
Just being curious, even if it was demining mission, what was wrong in hitting it? Deploying mines in an ongoing war is permissible military activity, then demining is a military activity too, then attacking demining mission should be permissible too, it is like attacking tranch and bunker building activities.
If you were to read Ukranian accounts at face value, you'd think Kiev looks like Gaza by now with the amount of civilians they claim were killed in any given strike.
The Russian army attacked the Ukrainian strategic Kryukovsky Bridge in the city of Kremenchuk in the Poltava region. Geran-2 drones were used to strike the bridge. The video was published by local residents. The 1,700-meter-long Kryukovsky combined bridge across the Dnieper River is designed for automobile and rail transport links between the two parts of Kremenchuk. The bridge plays a major role in the logistics of the Ukrainian army.
Footage of Russian FPV drone strikes on a rare Ukrainian 155mm howitzer FH77 BW L52 Archer. The FH77 BW L52 Archer self-propelled howitzer has been produced in Sweden since 2014. It is automated and has a firing range of up to 60 km. Technical specifications are on the screen and in the description of the video. The 45th separate artillery brigade of Ukraine received only 8 FH77 BW L52 Archer howitzers. The howitzer was tracked for several days, after which 3 FPV drones were struck in the Krasnoarmeysk direction near the settlement of Novooleksandrivka.
New footage of combat operations in Ukraine and Donbass, Russian FPV drone interceptors. The FPV drones VT-40, drones "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky" and other models, including those controlled by fiber optic cable, are used in battles. The exact location of the shooting is not reported. In the video, you can see Ukrainian reconnaissance and regular drones, produced in Ukraine and other countries. It is worth noting the interception of new Ukrainian drones RAM-2X, which are a copy of the Russian Lancet drones.
