The footage captures explosions occurring on one of the larger buildings, indicated by smoke plumes. The presence of a targeting reticle and crosshairs suggests this is surveillance footage from a drone or other aerial platform. Text overlays in Russian identify the target as a "VNK ВСУ" object and indicate "fire detected at the facility." The watermark "ИЗНАНКА The_Wrong_Side" suggests the footage originates from a specific source known for disseminating such content.

Text overlays in Russian identify some of the targets ('enemy BMP', 'house with personnel', 'retranslator', 'BMP', 'BMP enemy', 'antenna UAV').

NEW: АРХАНГЕЛ СПЕЦНАЗА: The video appears to be an aerial reconnaissance or attack footage, likely from a drone or aircraft, documenting military strikes on what seem to be civilian or industrial structures in a populated area. Multiple explosions are visible, causing significant damage and generating large plumes of smoke. The footage includes overlay graphics typical of military targeting systems, such as crosshairs and telemetry data. Additionally, memes of monkeys are intermittently displayed on the screen, which is unusual for military footage and suggests a potential attempt to influence perception or add a layer of commentary. The presence of residential buildings in the vicinity of the strikes indicates a risk of civilian casualties or collateral damage. (HIGH CONFIDENCE). The caption "🤙 Стёрты с лица земли!" (Wiped off the face of the earth!) strongly implies this is a RUF video showing strikes on UAF positions, possibly near Pokrovsk given the earlier appeal.
