Ukrainian fighters in the Kursk region cleared and captured a company stronghold of Russian troops. Enemy soldiers were eliminated, according to the Telegram channel of the 225th Separate Assault Regiment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
As the regiment noted, this enemy company stronghold covered an important direction and was well prepared for all-around defense, with dugouts, trenches, and firing points.
Ukrainian artillery and FPV drones targeted the position for several days before infantry moved in.
The video shows the final stage of clearing: the assault troops of the 225th Regiment throw grenades, explosives, and even TM-type charges into the fortifications, finish off the defense, and take control of the position.
"This was a serious resistance point just yesterday. Now it’s a complete crater with enemy bodies in the ground," the 225th Separate Assault Regiment said.
Situation in the Kursk region
The Armed Forces of Ukraine have been conducting an operation in the Kursk region for nearly a year.
According to the General Staff, today on the Kursk front, Ukrainian defenders repelled eleven Russian attacks. In addition, the enemy carried out eleven airstrikes using thirteen guided bombs and conducted 127 shelling attacks.
Recently, the State Border Guard Service reported that Russia has intensified its military presence in the Kursk region — relocating equipment and setting up new positions for drone operators.
