National Guard Commander Oleksandr Pivnenko spoke about another achievement of his soldiers.

According to him, the Russian invaders made another attempt to break through the area of responsibility of the Spartan NGU brigade.

However, the enemy's plan was doomed to failure, as aerial reconnaissance detected the movement of the enemy APC in time.
