Ukrainian Soldier Rescued by Drone-Delivered E-Bike
Imagine a soldier named Tanker stuck behind enemy lines in Ukraine.
He was hurt, and the bad guys were everywhere.
Because it was too dangerous to go get him, his team used a drone to drop off a special electric bike!
It took a few tries, but the bike finally arrived.
Tanker hopped on the bike and rode away to safety, escaping the danger while Russian forces attacked Kyiv.
A Ukrainian soldier, identified as "Tanker", was rescued using a drone-delivered electric bike.
The soldier was trapped behind enemy lines near Siversk for five days.
Rescue attempts were deemed too risky due to Russian troop positioning.

The escape took place as Russian forces launched missile attacks on Kyiv.
