Ukrainian FPV Drones Hunted Russian Convoy Every Step — Then THIS Happened...

Russian Convoy Enters Pokrovsk Sector — Ukrainian FPV Drones Decide What Happens Next

Recent fighting near Pokrovsk reveals how modern ground warfare is being reshaped by constant aerial surveillance. Russian movements in the sector have faced repeated disruption, not through a single decisive battle, but through the steady accumulation of delays, losses, and forced withdrawals documented in open-source footage. Vehicles stall, supply runs are interrupted, and units abandon planned routes as Ukrainian drone coverage constrains nearly every attempt to move.
This video examines how FPV and FP2 drones now dominate low-altitude airspace around Pokrovsk, turning movement itself into a high-risk activity. Large armored formations have largely disappeared, replaced by small infantry groups, motorcycles, and lightly protected vehicles attempting to reduce visibility. Persistent UAV observation tracks individual soldiers, small vehicles, and logistics routes, often transitioning from surveillance to strike within moments.
Rather than focusing solely on equipment destruction, Ukrainian drone operations increasingly aim to slow advances, isolate units, disrupt logistics, and erode combat effectiveness over time. Constant detection forces dispersion, weakens coordination, delays resupply, and creates sustained psychological pressure. Even when no strike occurs, the presence of drones reshapes behavior, compresses the battlefield, and steadily drains momentum.
Using Pokrovsk as a case study, this analysis shows how control of low-altitude airspace has become a decisive factor in modern conflict. The battle is no longer defined only by territory gained or lost, but by who can move, who must wait, and who can sustain operations under continuous observation. Pokrovsk offers a glimpse into how future ground wars may increasingly be fought under the shadow of drones.
