"Akhmat’s fighters shot down Ukropov’s FPV. I tell them don't go near. They approached it and started filming a video and it exploded right next to them. It immediately became two 300.” (i.imgur.com)

One would think 'don't approach unexploded ordinance if you don't have to' would be common sense...

Unexploded remotely-triggerable ordinance with a camera on it.

Common sense is in pretty short supply over there.

2-300?

Wilshire gave the correct answer, but wanted to expand on that. Cargo 200 was a Soviet code word for transporting filled coffins. It would be what you write on a cargo manifest. It morphed into simply '200' and '300' referring to dead and wounded respectively.

OPs syntax is a little confusing though (he might've just copied the title / description of wherever he got that video from). 2-300 makes it sound like from 2 to 300, or some direct connection between the 2 and 300. 2x 300s would've been more clear.
