Lasar’s Group of the NSU destroyed two Russian BM-21 'Grad' multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) in the Donetsk region during combat missions in the area of responsibility of the 20th Army Corps, as reported in a Telegram post from corps7DSHV linked by @moklasen on X at approximately 10:45 AM UTC on February 28, 2026, within the past hour. The NSU Special Purpose Detachment crews spotted the first 'Grad' during a mission and tracked its likely movement route, while the second was identified through analysis of enemy positions despite being hidden under cover. Heavy 'LAZAR' bombers executed precise strikes, with one occupier attempting to save a burning 'Grad' before fleeing into a tree line upon hearing the approach of a 'Baba Yaga' drone, according to the lasarsgroup.army statement shared via https://t.me/corps7DSHV/1137. At the moment of the strike on one launcher, Russian forces were using it to attack Ukrainian Defense Forces positions, and both systems were fully destroyed despite enemy evacuation efforts, the post detailed. This incident follows earlier Ukrainian SIGNUM FPV drone strikes on Russian logistics vehicles in the nearby Donbas region between 9:15 AM and 10:15 AM UTC today, as previously reported.
