The war between Russia and Ukraine has been going on for almost 2 years. Amidst the Israel-Hamas war, this war is rarely discussed in the world. But suddenly, an incident in the Russia-Ukraine war caught the attention of the whole world. A Ukrainian sniper has detected and killed an ambushed Russian soldier from a distance of 3.8 km.
According to media reports, this is the World Record of the Longest Kill (the record of shooting someone from the longest distance). A sharpshooter from Ukraine’s security service team has achieved this feat. It is being said that the Russian soldier was killed in just one shot of the Ukrainian soldier.
This feat is discussed a lot among those who watch military activities. Kyiv’s security service told Ukrainian media that the achievement was about 260 meters ahead of the previous world record.
Ukraine’s official statement said that the SBU sniper has demonstrated amazing ability in global sniping. He has set a new benchmark. There is no one like his sniper in the world.
Without naming the sniper, the army said that the gun with which the target was hit was made in Ukraine. He is called The Lord of Horizon or Horizon Lord. Its previous record was 3.54 km.
In May 2017, Canada’s Joint Task Force killed a terrorist in Iraq by shooting at a distance of 3,540 meters. This was a new record at that time.
The name of the Australian snapper is number three. He shot 2,815 meters during the Afghanistan war in April 2012.
Ukrainian name is again at number four. A Ukrainian National Guard sniper killed a Russian soldier in November 2022 by shooting from a distance of 2,710 meters.
Whereas at number five is British sniper Craig Harrison. Harrison killed a Taliban fighter by shooting 2,475 meters in November 2009. At that time, this was a world record.
