It's a shame someone can't take the time to teach them how to place explosives for maximum affect.
The TM-62 anti-tank mines are being dropped on Russian positions using the British "Malloy T150" cargo drone.
The drone can carry up to 68 kg of payload and has a maximum range of 70 km.

Two grumpy old men on Ukraine
House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul is asking Secretary of State Blinken if his administration will lift restrictions on weapons provided to Ukraine.
💬 They won't be able to win with the limitations you put on them, says Michael McCall
Many have already seen a photo from this fragment, but the full context must also be understood here. Blinken then repeated his ambiguous message, which he said when he was on a recent visit to Kyiv. He says that Ukraine should decide for itself how to use its weapons.
In turn, McCaul emphasized that the Congress itself, when deciding on aid to Ukraine, did not impose such restrictions on strikes on the territory of Russia. That is, all responsibility lies with the Biden administration.
Separately, pay attention to the graph itself, drawn by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW). It shows three ranges of American weapons - Himars systems (86+ km), cluster ATACMS (165+ km) and ATACMS with a unitary warhead (300+ km).

Sofia Kryachko, together with her mother Natalya and father Dmytro, lived in Lyman, in the Donetsk region.
When the full-scale invasion began, the family remained in their hometown.
During the shelling, they went down to the basement, which was located in the yard.
2-3 weeks before her death, Sofia began to use black or dark shades more often in her drawings. Grandma was surprised, because Sonia always painted in bright colors.
On May 23, 2022, enemy missiles hit the family's yard. Sonya and her mother collapsed in the basement where they were hiding. They died in hospital.
Dad was away on a visit at the time of the shelling, so he was saved. But he could not survive the loss and after a few months he hanged himself in the destroyed house. And a few months later, the heart of his father Oleksiy stopped...
