A frame from the video of the 501st Marines Battalion Russian troops in armored vehicles unsuccessfully attempted to drive Ukrainian troops out of the village of Krynky, Kherson region. A drone of the 501st Separate Naval Infantry Battalion recorded an attack by Russian tanks and infantry fighting vehicles.

Due to the FPV drone, the Ukrainian army successfully targeted an invader's T-72B3 tank, causing immediate detonation of its ammunition. An infantry fighting vehicle, carrying troops, was in close proximity to the tank and was hit by debris resulting from the tank's explosion. Before that, the Russian military had attempted to dislodge the Ukrainian forces from their foothold in Krynky. On January 6, the Ukrainian Defense Forces destroyed a Russian BTR-82A armored personnel carrier with additional protection in a village.
