Here is the translation of the text you provided from Russian to English:
"We are defending ourselves against Russian lancets.
In Ukraine, serial production of steel structures for the protection of equipment and personnel from rusty drones has been established.
Lancets create many problems. At the same time, there are not enough EW and mobile air defense groups.
To protect equipment and fighters, they began to make "lancet catchers" - steel structures that cover the equipment and do not let drones through.
32 such anti-lancet structures were transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the front.
They were manufactured at Akhmetov's Metinvest enterprise in coordination with the military.

The "cope cage" thing was always propaganda. When US soldiers in Iraq were putting scrap steel on the floors of their HMMWVs to protect against IEDs it was called "improvised armor".
However, those scrap metal cupolas wouldn't likely have done anything against the Javelin or NLAW missiles and MAM-C laser-guided AP glide bombs the Ukrainians were using in the Kiev defense.
In this case the interesting thing to me is that you would expect a self-propelled gun to be engaged in "shoot-and-scoot" where it fires a few rounds and then gets out of there before the counter-battery response comes in. A cope cage isn't going to do anything about incoming 152.4mm rounds. The fact that the Ukrainians are now apparently using static setup with "cope garages" in the treeline suggests that they don't fear Russian counter-battery responses and the primary threat is now apparently small-warhead loitering munitions.
