Cluster Bomb / Submunition event in Ukraine on Sun 14th April 2024
14th April 2024
The Russian army perforated the Ukrainian positions with RBK-500 cluster bombs near Verkhnekamensk - after a scattering of explosions, the ground disappeared from under the feet of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Exclusive Readovka footage from the Seversky direction shows the use of RBK-500 cluster bombs with universal planning and correction modules (UMPC), designed to destroy enemy manpower and light armored vehicles. The video shows the spectacular work of our army near Verkhnekamensky - after a scattering of lightning flashes, the enemy’s positions are literally plowed up, raising huge clouds of smoke and leaving the enemy not a single chance. Russia first used the RBK-500 in November 2023 - in order to use this ammunition, it is necessary first of all to completely suppress the enemy’s missile and air defenses. The carriers of these bombs are Su-34 fighters, which take direct part in the special operation, striking enemy ground targets.
