On Zaluzhny’s Facebook page, a video of the battle between the fighters of the Ingulets brigade and the Russians appeared.
The Muscovites attacked an artillery reconnaissance observation post. It was located 2-3 km from the front line. The Russians came close to the position.
The intelligence unit was also helped by their car, behind which they sometimes had to hide. The car was shot five times with a grenade launcher, but it withstood the blows.
In addition, the Ukrainian unit had its own “eyes” – aerial reconnaissance told about every step of the Russians, even when the enemy was reloading a grenade launcher or RPG.
We knew even when the enemy scratched his nose,” says one of the Ukrainian fighters.
The battle lasted three days, at the end the Muscovites stopped storming the landing and went to the Ukrainians in an open position across the field.
One of the turning points of the battle was the ambush, which was arranged for the Muscovites by the scout machine gunner Alexander. He took a position in an open field, and this helped him unexpectedly force the Muscovites.
