According to Ukrinform, the 105th Territorial Defense Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported this on Facebook.

"The Rashists decided to stage another 'victory' for themselves and raise their airborne troops' rag of a flag in the settlement of Velyka Pysarivka. The event was so 'grand' that it lasted... a whole 30 seconds," the statement said.

The brigade noted that the occupiers themselves did not dare set foot on Ukrainian soil and instead attempted to plant the flag using a drone. However, pilots from the 105th Separate Territorial Defense Brigade acted swiftly and immediately destroyed the enemy's flag.

"Enemy rags don't stay on Ukrainian soil for long!" the brigade added.
