Budanov led the operation in Vovchansk at a key stage
According to "Linux", one of the most important stages of the mission was the accumulation of Ukrainian forces and assets in the area of the combat mission, which was imperceptible to the Russian occupiers.
Scouts draw attention to the fact that this is a classic operation for special forces.
This is a complex multi-stage operation, the implementation of which involved large forces: both unmanned systems, and artillery, and personnel who have experience in clearing similar buildings. So this was a task for us, and we fulfilled it completely, — emphasized the commander of the "Stugna" unit.
He also added that one of the key factors during the implementation of the mission was clear coordination between the groups of Timur's special unit involved in the assault — "Stugna", "Paragon", "Yunger", RDK, BDK, "Terror".

How the Vovchan aggregate plant was actually fired
On September 24, the GUR officially confirmed that Ukrainian scouts successfully completed a complex operation, thanks to which it was possible to completely liberate the territory of the Vovchan Aggregate Plant.
Moreover, it was reported that they were able to eliminate the Russian occupiers in all the buildings of the enterprise.
The GUR units carried out a systematic sweep of the plant's buildings, constantly engaging in contact battles with the Russian invaders in densely built-up conditions. Sometimes there was even hand-to-hand combat.
What is important to understand is that the Russian army turned the aggregate plant into its propaganda "fortress", deploying in its defense the most motivated and professional units, among which there were even fighters of the 45th SpP brigade of the airborne troops (Kubinka, Moscow).
The enemy used a significant amount of artillery, kamikaze attack drones, KABs and heavy Solntsepok flamethrower systems against the Ukrainian forces.
Despite this, the fighters of the GUR MOU managed to return the plant to the control of the Armed Forces after clearing all 30 buildings of the facility.
