Ukrainian military recorded another crime by the occupiers in Toretsk, Donetsk region. Such actions have become a common practice for Russian troops.
Points of attention
- The Ministry of Defense has been informed of the facts of another violation by the Russian troops in Toretsk.
- Using civilian images for camouflage is a common practice of the Russian occupiers.
- This tactic creates difficulties for the Ukrainian military, as enemy forces try to divert attention away from themselves.
- Ukrainian defenders are actively defending their positions in various directions, despite the invaders' attempted attacks.
- The latest data on combat operations at the front indicate the activity of enemy armed formations and the need to strengthen the defense strategy.
In Toretsk, Russian occupiers change into civilian clothes
According to the 28th Separate Mechanized Brigade named after the Knights of the Winter Campaign, aerial reconnaissance units of the "Gyurza" unit of the 28th brigade recorded violations of the rules of warfare by the Russian military.
In Toretsk, occupiers were spotted engaging in movement and reconnaissance and sabotage activities, disguised for camouflage.
In this way, the enemy infantry tries to divert attention from themselves. However, they are given away by their uniforms, behavior, and sometimes even weapons, the Ukrainian military noted.
However, this still complicates the work of our soldiers. After all, the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not "shoot at everything that moves," as the occupiers do.
