Since Tuesday evening, fighters of the 71st Airmobile Brigade of the 8th Air Assault Corps have been repelling a massive and combined Russian attack between the settlements of Andriivka and Oleksiivka in the Sumy region.
Footage of the combat operation was released on the brigade’s channel on January 8.
“Five enemy groups attempted to approach the defensive line. However, our paratroopers spoiled the occupiers’ Christmas in their own style.
Later, more than a dozen Russians decided to repeat the old gas-pipe trick — it ended tragically for them.
Eventually, they charged straight ahead on quad bikes, while simultaneously advancing with infantry from another direction. Both groups were successfully destroyed by UAVs and artillery of the brigade and adjacent units.
As a result, for their ‘Christmas,’ Mother Russia received 42 new martyrs — whom, however, no one there will remember”, — the brigade commented.
