Ukrainian servicemen captured a Russian Granat-2 UAV in the Joint Forces Operation zone. This is not the first time that this type of drone has been seen in the Donbas. It demonstrates that Russia has not abandoned its aggressive plans and continues to direct the hybrid army and to sponsor their activities in the combat zone in eastern Ukraine.
InformNapalm international intelligence community has obtained photos of the captured drone after its disassembling which may be of interest to professionals.

The Granat-2 UAV has already been presented in the InformNapalm evidence base of Russian weapons in the Donbas.
It is also known exactly where the training of drone pilots took place. InformNapalm volunteers found photographic evidence with its geolocation in the territory of the Kuzminsky test ground in Myasnikovsky District of Rostov Oblast. There, in December 2014, the Russian military trained terrorists and taught them to work with the Granat-2 drones for future use in the war in Ukrainian Donbas.
Among the evidence gathered by InformNapalm is also a video showing Russian mercenaries who conducted reconnaissance of Ukrainian positions using a Granat-2 drone. The coordinates of the positions were immediately transferred from the drone to the Panasonic laptop that is part of the drone system.
