Video footage circulating on social media shows a Russian strike on the frontline town of Orihiv in Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia region using a FAB-3000 glide bomb.
The munition, described as one of the most destructive weapons in the Russian arsenal, was reportedly dropped from aircraft flying beyond the range of Ukrainian air defenses, leaving limited options for interception.
The deployment of such heavy ordnance highlights the continued pressure on Ukrainian defensive lines.
The FAB-3000 is a massive guided bomb designed to cause significant structural damage, and its use in active combat zones signals a sustained effort to degrade frontline infrastructure and troop positions.
This development follows recent escalations in the conflict, including Russian claims that Ukraine has begun using ballistic missiles for the first time.
The exchange of increasingly sophisticated weaponry marks a shift in the tactical landscape of the war, with both sides leveraging advanced capabilities to gain ground.
