Soldiers of the 3rd Assault Brigade published footage of the mopping-up operation in Krasnohorivka, Donetsk region.

The brigade’s press service released the video.

Avoiding minefields, the brigade’s units entered the city on armored vehicles and started advancing through the streets.

The Russians were not going to leave their positions and were clinging to every house. They were being driven out by force, using small arms and grenades. In addition, tanks were engaged in clearing the city.

As a result of the counteroffensive, the Russians lost over a hundred soldiers.

The soldiers of the 3rd Company of the 1st Assault Battalion and soldiers of the 2nd Company of the 2nd Assault Battalion stormed the city.

Militarnyi previously reported that soldiers of the 3rd Assault Brigade forced the invaders out of the southeastern outskirts of Krasnohorivka, Donetsk region.

The day before, the enemy had attacked the southeastern part of the city and entered the outskirts of the city.

To prevent the enemy from gaining a foothold, the 1st and 2nd Assault Battalions conducted an operation to clear the city of enemy forces.

It should be noted that the enemy still managed to fortify itself and prepare for a long defense in a short period of time.

Those invaders who remained after long battles were offered to surrender, but since they refused, the remnants of the enemy groups were destroyed.

Prior to the assault, Russians actively shelled the city with cannon and rocket artillery. The invaders also used aircraft to bombard the city.
