A Russian Lancet kamikaze drone had destroyed a Ukrainian military boat, according to a Friday report by Russian-state media outlet RIA Novosti, citing exclusive footage it received.
The attack happened in the Dnieper River located between Russia, Ukraine and Belarus.
The report claims the footage received shows the Ukrainian ship hit by a Russian reconnaissance drone. The video also showed smoke emitting from the vessel shortly after impact.
The Lancet drone, which has one large X-shaped wing and an X-shaped tail, had received new aerodynamics.
The maximum speed of a Lancet drone is approximately 110 km per hour with a 40-kilometer range, according to the report.

A report from the Ukrainian Intelligence Directorate on Tuesday also warned that Iran is ready to give 200 combat drones to Russia.
The new weapons include the Shahed-136 and Arash-2 suicide drones and Mohajer-6 reconnaissance drones.
