Ukrainian troops managed to hold their ground under Russian air bombs and assaults in the Kharkiv region.

Journalist Yurii Butusov shared the details of the battle near Lyptsi.

Before the assault, the Russian military deployed a reconnaissance drone to observe the position.

Next, four bombs, probably FAB-500M62 high explosive bombs, fell on Ukrainian positions.

This bomb, which has 300 kg of explosive in TNT equivalent, is effective when used against military field constructions.

To ensure accurate strikes, the bombs are equipped with planning and correction modules. As a result, four bombs hit the Ukrainian position.

Yurii Butusov stated that the Ukrainian military managed to survive. Several soldiers dug themselves out of trenches completely covered with earth.

“And even in such difficult conditions and after such attacks, a group of our fighters survived. And they, all of them injured, did not run away and did not surrender,” the journalist said.

After this strike, a Russian assault group left to storm the landing site under the guidance of a drone. They were supported from above by a drone that dropped grenades.

A battle ensues, and the Ukrainian military manages to stop the Russian advance. In the battle, the Ukrainian Armed Forces killed five Russian soldiers.

As previously reported, Ukrainian paratroopers with Western armored vehicles were involved in the battles in Vovchansk, Kharkiv region.

Ukrainian paratroopers used American Stryker armored personnel carriers.
