Russian forces attempted to assault the Siversk direction, but failed, according to the Dnipro Operational-Strategic Group of Troops.
According to the military, the enemy launched a night assault, but did not anticipate that the SIGNUM battalion was on duty at the point of the attempted breakthrough.
"A call for support comes over the radio. Within minutes, our pilots launch drones into the sky. The first to appear on the enemy’s path are their MT-LBs (multi-purpose light-armored towing vehicle - ed.). It seems they got lost and drove the wrong way. But we knew exactly where to strike," the caption to a video says.
Precise strikes stopped the enemy’s equipment. Together with neighboring units, the soldiers repelled the assault and gave the enemy no chance.
According to the General Staff, yesterday the enemy carried out two missile and 54 air strikes, launched two missiles, and dropped 112 guided bombs. In addition, Russian forces conducted 3,931 attacks, including 112 using multiple launch rocket systems, and deployed 5,246 kamikaze drones.
Over the past 24 hours, 155 combat clashes were recorded along the entire front line.
