72nd Mechanized Brigade Repels Enemy Assault, Having Destroyed 13 Vehicles

The soldiers of the 72nd Mechanized Brigade, named after the Black Zaporozhians, successfully defeated Russian forces, eliminating 13 pieces of enemy equipment.

A video of the destruction was shared by the brigade’s press service.

The Russian convoy was swiftly detected by aerial reconnaissance units, allowing for precise weapon preparation.

The enemy began to suffer the first losses from mines laid by the army, after which aerial reconnaissance adjusted artillery fire on the convoy.

The invaders, realizing that they were under attack by Ukrainian defenders, tried to move near forested areas to get out of the sight of the drones, but failed.

After a while, drones with ammunition and FPV drones appeared in the sky and began destroying Russian tanks.

Thus, this unsuccessful assault attempt cost the enemy three tanks, four Akhmat armored vehicles, one vehicle and 40 soldiers who were killed.

In addition, about 100 Russian drones were neutralized by electronic warfare systems, which were actively used both for reconnaissance and to support their own troops.

Militarnyi previously reported that two soldiers of the 425th “Skala” Separate Assault Regiment had repelled an enemy attack and taken prisoners of war.

The enemy assault group of four infantrymen attempted to seize a building held by two Skala soldiers.

Initially, a Russian machine gunner, taking cover in a neighboring building, opened fire on Ukrainian positions, but was quickly met with a grenade in response.

Afterward, the Russian infantrymen tried to bypass the structure and approach again, but failed. FPV drones arrived to support the Ukrainian soldiers, causing the enemy infantry to scatter: a machine gunner fled the battlefield, one was killed, and two took shelter in the basement.

Eventually, the Skala’s soldiers left the building and captured the two remaining invaders from the basement.
