Russians Attempt to Break Through 28th Brigade Positions Near Toretsk on Motorcycles

Russian units attempted to break through the positions of the 28th Mechanized Brigade near Toretsk.

The press service of the brigade published the video of their interception and elimination.

The enemy was detected thanks to scouts who noticed the movement of enemy motorcycles on a rural road in the direction of the brigade’s positions.

The first to open fire on them was the artillery, which conducted intense fire on the enemy, forcing them to seek cover in the nearest forest belt.

After the enemy began to hide, the brigade’s drones with ammunition drop systems took over to eliminate individual Russian assault troops.

“Under heavy fire, the Russian servicemen fled into the forest belt, where they were systematically destroyed one by one by the drone operators of the Kurt&Company unit, as well as recon platoons from the 3rd and 2nd mechanized battalions. Our comrades from the Phoenix unit and the 93rd Separate Mechanized Brigade “Kholodnyi Yar” also joined in the destruction of the enemy,” the press service of the 28th Brigade reported.

The drone operators from adjacent units were also involved in the operation, hunting both the enemy’s manpower and equipment to prevent their retreat.

Despite the Easter ceasefire proposed by Putin and supported by the Ukrainian side, the Russians did not abandon their attempts to seize the positions of the Ukrainian Defense Forces on the front line.

As a result, Ukrainian defenders on the Toretsk front were ambushed by the Russians, which caused outrage from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

“Unfortunately, our soldiers fell into a Russian ambush in the Toretsk direction. There are casualties. The Russian soldiers who carried this out will be neutralized,” he wrote on his Telegram account.

Meanwhile, after breaking out of the encirclement in Toretsk, the Defense Forces units organized a new defensive line, which is currently a priority target for the enemy.

Militarnyi previously reported that the soldiers of the 28th Mechanized Brigade together with the adjacent units of the 1004th Brigade had repelled an assault by Russian invaders who had attacked as part of an armored convoy in the Toretsk sector.
