102nd Territorial Defense Brigade Repels Assault in Zaporizhzhia Region

Soldiers of the 79th separate battalion of the 102nd Territorial Defense Brigade repelled a Russian assault in the Zaporizhzhia sector.

Ukrainian journalist Yuriy Butusov reported about this on his Telegram channel.

The soldiers repelled the assault using remote mining, mortars, grenade launchers, FPV drones, and anti-tank weapons.

According to the journalist, the Russians lost one tank, five armored personnel carriers, one UR-77 mine warfare vehicle and several cars during the assault.

Recently, on March 6, 2024, Militarnyi reported that the Ukrainian tank crews of the 54th Mechanized Brigade drove up close to the Russian invaders and knocked them out of the forest strip in the Kharkiv region.

The battle took place northwest of the village of Orlianka, and the Russian infantry tried to gain a foothold in the forest of this area.

To repel them, the Ukrainian military sent two tanks, which began shooting at the Russians with high-explosive shells.

As previously reported, soldiers of the 108th Separate Mountain Assault Battalion launched an assault on an enemy position and captured two POWs.

During the assault in the Kupiansk sector, the Ukrainian fighters managed to capture two Russian invaders.

One of the POWs with the call sign ‘Shurup’ had previously served a 15-year prison sentence.

In November 2023, to avoid further imprisonment, he signed a contract and joined the war against Ukraine.

On March 5, it was reported that Ukrainian troops successfully repelled a Russian armored assault near Novomykhailivka in the Donetsk region.
