Under the cover of fog, Russian forces attempted to attack the positions of the 46th Separate Airmobile Podillia Brigade, employing up to ten units of armored vehicles and several dozen infantry troops.
Footage of the combat operation was published on the channel of the 46th Separate Airmobile Podillia Brigade of the 8th Air Assault Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“Thanks to the coordinated work of our engineers, artillerymen, and unmanned systems units, together with adjacent units, the assault was successfully repelled”, — the paratroopers reported.
In total, during the battle, the defenders destroyed two tanks, two infantry fighting vehicles, an MT-LB armored vehicle, and two quad bikes, and also hit a combat armored vehicle and an enemy car. In addition, 49 occupiers were eliminated and another five were wounded.
The command of the Air Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine added that this took place in the Pokrovsk sector.

A motorized infantry assault that the occupiers had planned as a rapid breakthrough was stopped and destroyed by the Defense Forces halfway to its objective.
