More than 100 military units of Ukraine’s Defence Forces have already joined the initiative, having destroyed over 17,000 reconnaissance and…
On the Pokrovsk direction, the invaders made 28 attempts to push the Ukrainian army from occupied positions. The enemy continues infiltration attempts into the inter-positional space.
This was reported on Suspilne by Bohdan Mazurenko, commander of the 35th Separate Marine Brigade.
According to him, the situation is difficult. The enemy attacks with infantry groups and vehicles, and many airstrikes are recorded. There are few drones — currently ineffective due to extreme cold, which drains batteries.
Thus, Mazurenko noted, the weather “plays a cruel joke on our troops”, as constantly searching for and clearing the enemy between positions without UAVs is difficult. But when the situation is critical, drones still take off despite high risks of being lost. This is how the operation to liberate prisoners was conducted recently.
“My unit also participated in this liberation. The operation went like this — we were informed via radio that one of our strongpoints was captured. The enemy had rifles, ours didn’t, but our guys were not restrained. Immediately, all brigades involved in the 7th Rapid Response Corps joined in with their drones and began destroying the enemy. This allowed our guys to escape safely”, — said the commander of the 35th Separate Marine Brigade.
