A wounded Ukrainian soldier, identified as 49-year-old Kostyantyn, was evacuated from the battlefield in the Kharkiv region by a heavy drone, covering over 15 km. Kostyantyn, who had both legs amputated, had remained in position for several days on the Kupyansk front. Multiple evacuation attempts were unsuccessful, and Russian forces reportedly tried to persuade him to surrender.

The rescue operation utilized a Ukrainian hexacopter named 'Ayudag-6' (Heavy Shot) and involved military personnel from multiple brigades and corps. The soldier, Kostyantyn, who sustained amputations to both legs, is now in a Kharkiv hospital undergoing rehabilitation and awaiting prosthetics.
