Two riflemen of the Territorial Defence Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have shot down a Russian S-300 missile with a machine gun. The missile fell and its hull was peppered with bullets.

This was reported by the Ukrainian Armed Forces' Strategic Communications Centre on November 25. It is noted that the defenders made the successful strike during the recent massive shelling of Ukraine.

Thus, the enemy missile was eliminated by anti-aircraft gunners of the fire support company of the 185th separate battalion of the 122nd brigade of the Ukrainian armed forces with a large-caliber machine gun. The soldiers spotted an enemy object in the sky and opened fire.

"The fire was accurate: the hit rocket went down. That's where they found the body of the missile, pierced with bullets. Thanks to the defenders!", the report said.
