Quote: "This is what the forests of Kharkiv Oblast look like today – thousands of kilometres of fibre-optic 'spiderwebs' left hanging on trees by Russian drones. This is not just litter. It is a serious environmental problem, the consequences of which we will be dealing with for years. Ecocide is as much a weapon against Ukraine for the occupiers as drones are. That is why enemy drone pilots are a priority target for the soldiers of the 57th Brigade."

Details: According to the brigade's video, the nearly invisible fibre-optic cable webs are causing devastating damage to nature. They are destroying the forests around Vovchansk and becoming deadly traps for wild animals.
