There is a video of a Russian drone. The drone is following a man in Ukraine. The man sells vegetables on the street. The drone explodes near him, but he lives.

Russian soldiers use many small drones to attack people and cars in cities. Drones are now very important in the war. Some drones fly very fast. Some drones use long wires. These drones are hard to track.

Today, both Ukraine and Russia have special teams for drones. Russia also uses big rockets to attack towns. One rocket hits a train station and kills eight people. Ukraine needs more help and more air defense to stop these bad attacks and save lives.

Difficult words: important (when something matters or has a big impact), wire (a long, thin piece of metal), track (to follow something or someone over time), air defense (rockets which shoot down other rockets or drones in the sky).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
