Soldiers of the 128th Brigade Showed How They Repelled the Russian Offensive Near Shakhtarsk.


The occupiers are advancing near Shakhtarsk and Bohoyavlenka. According to the Deep State project, the Russians managed to advance in this area and capture the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
In the early days of the Russian offensive on Shakhtarsk, the defense was held by the 128th Mountain Assault Brigade. Soldiers of this brigade demonstrated videos of battles and the destruction of enemy equipment.
The footage shows the dynamics of the battles, an ambush, and the destruction of a tank with an RPG. The most impressive moment is the tank shot at the armored personnel carrier at close range.
According to the 128th OGSHBr in Telegram, the enemy used approximately 40 units of equipment in the area between Prechystivka and Zolota Nyva towards Novoukrainka and Shakhtarsk.
The Defense Forces fighters continue to do everything possible to stop the enemy, but the occupiers have the advantage in resources. Moreover, they are assisted by traditional mistakes.
The Russians entered Selydove and Bohoyavlenka, raised their flags, and established themselves in administrative buildings.
In Selydove, the occupiers shot peaceful residents. An investigation into this incident has been initiated.
Hundreds of Ukrainian soldiers from four brigades are trying to hold onto the vulnerable salient south of Pokrovsk and the town of Selydove, despite the critical threat of encirclement. This was reported by Forbes analyst David Axe.
The enemy also attacked a settlement near Shakhtarsk, using equipment and infantry groups to break through to Velyka Novosilka.
