Motorized Assault Fails: Russians Set Off Mines in the Novopavlivka Sector

In the Novopavlivka sector, Ukrainian troops fought off a massive attack by three enemy columns of Russian invaders.

Valentyn Manko, Head of the Assault Units Department, reported that the coordinated work of Ukrainian units caused significant losses to the enemy.

The assault was carried out by the soldiers of the 425th separate assault regiment in cooperation with the 5th separate assault brigade and the forces of the 20th army corps, which hold the Novopavlivka direction.

The enemy tried to quickly overcome the minefields to break through to the Ukrainian positions.

One by one, Russian motorcyclists were blown up by mines, unable to go further.

Those invaders who managed to land tried to fight off the FPV drone attacks with their bare hands, but in vain.

Ukrainian drone operators deliberately destroyed enemy infantry, preventing them from gaining a foothold in their positions.

During the assault, Russian commanders made a gross mistake by concentrating a large number of personnel in a limited area.

This created perfect conditions for the Ukrainian defenders to deliver precision strikes.

Artillery and drone bombers were firing on the enemy’s concentrations, inflicting maximum losses on the Russians.

Ukrainian troops are holding their positions and continue to control the situation in the area.

The other day, Ukrainian troops repelled a massive Russian assault on the village of Mala Tokmachka, located east of the town of Orikhiv in the Zaporizhzhia region.
