An unsuccessful assault attempt by the Russian army
On the day of the assault, the occupiers began early in the morning artillery training to suppress the firepower of the Defence Forces of Ukraine.
The guardsmen recall that after the artillery training, the enemy in the brigade carried out a diversionary maneuver and combat reconnaissance of the positions of the Ukrainian units.
The calculations of grenade launchers of the National Guard, providing assistance to neighbors, successfully worked to defeat the enemy. After that, the enemy from the 88th Infantry Brigade of the Russian Federation, with the support of the convict unit (Storm V), began assaulting the detachment in the direction of the positions of the front edge of the 5th separate brigade, said the soldier.
During the attempt to storm our positions, mortar units of the National Guard continuously fired to suppress the enemy. As a result of the artillery and during the shooting battle, the enemy suffered casualties and was forced to retreat.
