Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has long conjured images of war that Europe thought had been consigned to the history books. Several Ukrainian military units have shared videos of these drones in action in recent days. Ukraine’s 108th separate mountain assault battalion shared another video over the weekend, saying that its drone pilots had flown the “dragon drones” over Russian positions. Video purportedly shows a Ukrainian "dragon drone" shared on Telegram by Zelenskyy's chief adviser Andriy Yermak on Monday. They also include at least one instance of the fiery drones being used in Russia’s border Kursk region, which Ukrainian troops invaded last month, he said.

"The use of drones to deploy this molten payload is a novel, and fearsome, addition to modern warfare," Patton Rogers said. "It's difficult to hide from thermite," Patton Rogers said. AdvertisementThermite isn't banned for use against enemy troops — but "there are clear protocols stopping their use on civilian targets," Patton Rogers said. The psychological impact of these latest strikes is likely the principal operational goal, Patton Rogers said.
