A twitter user @Liveuamap recognized self-propelled artillery in a video posted on the Internet. The video shows several pieces of Russian 203mm 2S7M Malka self-propelled guns (a modernization of the Soviet 2S7 Pion gun). These guns are capable of firing at a distance of up to 47 km (maximum range with an active-jet projectile) though firing at such distances do not provide sufficient accuracy.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"in\" dir=\"ltr\">Military at Vesela Lopan, Belgorod region <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DVVOFj8lm6\">https:\/\/t.co\/DVVOFj8lm6<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fsezaYoric\">pic.twitter.com\/fsezaYoric<\/a> via <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/herooftheday10?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@herooftheday10<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Liveuamap (@Liveuamap) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Liveuamap\/status\/1490968198271107075?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 8, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"uk\" dir=\"ltr\">\u0412\u0435\u0441\u0435\u043b\u0430 \u041b\u043e\u043f\u0430\u043d\u044c 07.02.2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/EJIc9n0WkC\">pic.twitter.com\/EJIc9n0WkC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; 4emberlen (@4emberlen) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/4emberlen\/status\/1491420490388631552?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 9, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/OSINT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#OSINT<\/a><br \/>\nFebruary 7, 2022.

A twitter user @Liveuamap recognized self-propelled artillery in a video posted on the Internet. The video shows several pieces of Russian 203mm 2S7M Malka self-propelled guns (a modernization of the Soviet 2S7 Pion gun). These guns are capable of firing at a distance of up to 47 km (maximum range with an active-jet projectile) though firing at such distances do not provide sufficient accuracy.\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/Liveuamap\/status\/1490968198271107075?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1490968198271107075%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Finformnapalm.org%2Fua%2Fsau-malka%2F\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/4emberlen\/status\/1491420490388631552\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/OSINT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#OSINT<\/a>\r\nFebruary 7, 2022.
