Russian forces have destroyed a Ukrainian CAESAR self-propelled artillery piece using Lancet loitering munitions in the Shavrovo area of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR). The initial Lancet strike disabled the weapon, prompting Ukrainian soldiers to attempt to tow it to cover. A second Lancet drone then struck the immobilized CAESAR, resulting in its complete destruction. The footage, shared by pro-Russian channels, shows the sequence of the attack and the final burning wreckage.
