The Russian military tried to storm the Lyman direction. To support their actions, the occupiers used BMP-3, according to the Khortytsia operational and strategic group of troops.
According to the Ukrainian military, the invaders once again drove to the battlefield in armored vehicles. However, their vehicle exploded on minefields set up by the brigade's engineers.
After that, two FPV drones of the unmanned systems battalion and the battalion of the Separate Presidential Brigade burned the vehicle to the ground.
“Two of the crew members escaped, and the third was less fortunate than the others. He remained forever next to the burnt out armored personnel carrier,” the statement said.
