In a recent development on the Ukrainian front, a new type of drone, referred to as the Baba Yaga, has been deployed in Donetsk Oblast to deliver anti-tank landmines into Russian positions. Specifically, the drone was reported to have dropped a 21 lb (9.5 kg) TM-62 antitank landmine into a Russian bunker, where the mine's 7.5 kg explosive charge was detonated inside. This drone is part of Ukraine's innovative approach to warfare, utilizing remotely detonated drones and light unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) for laying mines. The Baba Yaga drone is capable of carrying up to 15 TM-62 anti-tank mines in a single load, marking a significant advancement in the Ukrainian military's capabilities.
