Sniper wounded a father and son with one bullet

Earlier, a case was recorded where a Russian sniper wounded a father and son with one bullet. Viktor Obertos recounted that the sniper hit a fighter at their position. The injury turned out to be serious, but the guy survived despite a pierced chest and damaged organs. Viktor noted that they continued to carry the wounded, but unfortunately, he died during transportation to the medical point.
