The brigade showed footage of the successful assault actions of Ukrainian soldiers during the liberation of the village of Sichneve in the Dnipropetrovsk region from the invaders. The video was published by the fighters of the 141st Separate Mechanized Brigade.
"In this footage – it's not a movie, but real combat work. These are successful assault actions in the village of Sichneve carried out by the fighters of the 141st Separate Mechanized Brigade," the statement says.
Fighters of the Shkval Battalion eliminated 50 Russian troops, and another eight were taken prisoner.
"This operation is proof that we are not standing still. We are not only holding the defense but also confidently moving forward, liberating our territories and relentlessly destroying every pest that crawls onto our land," the brigade noted.
