As Russia’s invasion of Ukraine enters its fourth year, remotely-operated ground robots have become a startlingly common sight on the battlefield.
Now, a video making the rounds on social media appears to show three Russian soldiers emerging from a building with their arms raised and surrendering to a robot armed with a machine gun.
A ground-based robotic complex captures three Russian soldiers.
During a combat mission, Ukraine deployed the Droid TW-7.62 ground robot and forced 3 Russians troops to surrender.
