Ukraine's military has released a video that the state says shows the world's first aerial transport of a wounded soldier from the front line using a drone.

The 92nd Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine announced that a ground rescue operation could not be carried out, because the wounded soldier was trapped between mines, and at the same time Russian drones were also operating in the area.

According to the brigade, a six-armed heavy drone, controlled by a remote operator, was able to maintain its stability during this "very difficult" operation.
