Ready to storm: Breathtaking photos of Ukrainian defenders Ukrainian soldiers prepare for new battles (photo: facebook.com/brigade128)

The soldiers who are protecting us at the front have little to no time to rest. The 128th separate mountain assault brigade of the Transcarpathian region trains even during the period of short withdrawal from their positions. And you can see in the photos how difficult it is: the 128th brigade's Facebook page reported on the training of Ukraine's defenders.

How the training goes

The military is always perfecting its skills. Ukraine's defenders are constantly training and preparing for new battles.

"During periods of short withdrawal from combat positions, the infantry does not have a full rest, as they train, improve their skills, prepare for new assaults or defense," the post reads.

They note that the training takes place in any weather. The military train in the mud and in the cold. And even during the exercises, they move with a full combat kit, not an empty one.

Ukraine's defenders have to learn to work in any conditions. The enemy attacks constantly, and is not deterred by mud and frost. That is why the military must always be ready to repel the Russian occupiers.

"Although the mountain assault troops return from the training exhausted, the skills they have learned will be very useful in real combat," the military added.
