Not a sniper and not Hezbollah. No trained sniper is going to be shooting multiple rounds unsupported and free hand from the standing position and nobody fighting for Hezbollah is going to have that camo and a weapon with those optics. My thought also and for his joy of trigger pulling he got his sh*t scattered..mb

OK, it seems that counter-battery radar has been around a long time. But, it's better & smaller. No longer needs a 2500 sq ft pad to mount it or the later, a 5 ton to haul it. Now a lot more compact, potable & accurate. This vid mirrors the vid I saw of an Al-Qaeda mortar crew getting the same surprise.

He was only playing sniper. We left some billions of dollars worth of equipment in Afghanistan. Who’s to say where it has ended up. Wrong optics to be our gear. Our forces are real big on the Trijicon ACOG and not a scope. I carried an M-4 with the ACOG, a PEQ II laser and an M-203 20mm grenade tube. In many years in an expeditionary combat command and 9 trips to the Middle East I saw no scopes on rifles that were not being used by SPEC OPS and most of those guys also had ACOGs. But what the hell do I know, I was only there 9 times.

I am pretty sure it was an AR 15 because they hold a hundred rounds in the chamber at once. I have heard they are a terrible weapon.

It rubbed a bit of dirt in the scratch for him... nice gesture!

Pretty sure that was a Ukrainian soldier. I've seen that vid posted on another site quite a bit over the last week or so.

Regardless of what kind of army he was, he was poorly trained, did dumb things, and got whacked.
