Paratroopers of the 79th Air Assault Brigade demonstrated another repulsion of a Russian assault near Novomykhailivka.

The brigade’s press service posted the video of the incident on Facebook.

The footage captures an unsuccessful attempt by the Russians to make a quick assault on the positions of Ukrainian defenders in the Donetsk sector.

For this, two Russian armored personnel carriers with infantry and full ammunition were thrown into a suicide attack on the positions of Ukrainian defenders.

The brigade notes that the enemy attack was swift, but due to the lack of engineering preparation for the assault, Russian armored personnel carriers exploded on mines before reaching the positions.

The attack, we must admit, began rapidly, but the paratroopers of the 79th Separate Tavrian Air Assault Brigade did not have time to take the fight – the invaders’ vehicles ran over anti-tank mines, the press service said.

The personnel inside the vehicles were also killed, along with the destroyed armored personnel carriers.

It should be noted that the enemy repeatedly tried to seize the position of Ukrainian paratroopers in this area, but all attempts were unsuccessful.

Militarnyi previously reported that soldiers of the 79th Air Assault Brigade destroyed an enemy platoon with ammunition from a drone before the battle began.

It is noted that the enemy tried to organize an assault on the positions of Ukrainian defenders, but was quickly detected by an aerial reconnaissance unit.

The brigade’s press service notes that the Russian troops were defeated two hours before the battle began.

Finally, the 79th Brigade’s drones started dropping ammunition on the enemy’s remnants, killing 29 Russian soldiers.
