The guards of the 15th ‘Kara-Dah’ Brigade drove the invaders out of the buildings of the industrial zone near the waste heap in the east of Selydove.

The video was posted online.

The aerial reconnaissance of the 1st Operational Battalion filmed the fighting near the mines, where the National Guard soldiers on an armored personnel carrier broke into the buildings in the middle of the night and cleared them of the invaders.

The crew of the BTR-4 Bucephalus fired a 30 mm automatic gun at the buildings that could have been occupied by the enemy forces, and then successfully left the position.

It is worth noting that, despite the source’s information, the fighting is actually taking place in the vicinity of the town of Selydove on the territory of the Korotchenko mine, south of the spoil tip.

The location was geolocated (here) one kilometer from the outskirts of the town.

In addition, fighting also continues near the mines in the wooded area, where the soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 15th Brigade of the National Guard, along with the adjacent units, repulsed the Russian offensive.

One of the released videos showed a hit Russian BTR-80 armored personnel carrier, as well as an abandoned Ukrainian M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle (marked in red on the map).

At the same time, judging by the invaders’ movements on the western outskirts of neighboring Mykhailivka, this settlement has been completely lost.

Obviously, the main goal of the Russian grouping of troops in this area is to capture the spoil tips, which will allow them to gain a foothold in the area and occupy the high point. The last will help control the area around.

In particular, the control of this height will be an important advantage for the occupiers in the battles for the city of Selydove, which will then be visible as if in the palm of their hand.

As previously reported, the “Skala’’ Separate Assault Battalion, armed with the aforementioned M2 Bradley fighting vehicles, is taking part in the defense in the Pokrovsk sector.
