Ukraine's Defense Forces halted a column of Russian vehicles in an area of active combat. The Russian forces were moving toward the border with Ukraine, the Ukrainian State Border Guard Service reports.
A video released shows Ukrainian fighters destroying Russian vehicles with precise strikes. Their coordinated efforts disrupted the enemy's plans. The Ukrainian defenders destroyed two Russian infantry fighting vehicles, and at least one more was damaged.
"The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine effectively protects the Ukrainian border and is an integral part of the Defense Forces of Ukraine," the statement says.
Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups at Ukrainian border
As the reports indicated, Russian forces are attempting to expand their zone of influence in the Kharkiv region. While attempts to deploy enemy sabotage and reconnaissance groups continue, their activity has recently decreased.
Earlier, Ukrainian forces destroyed a Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group in northern Ukraine, engaging the enemy at close range.
Furthermore, Russians constantly disseminate information about an alleged border breach in the Sumy region. However, the Defense Forces maintain their positions and are prepared for possible attempts by enemy sabotage and reconnaissance groups to infiltrate.
