The soldiers of the 54th Mechanized Brigade recently repelled a Russian assault in the Siversk direction.

The video was published by the press service of the Luhansk operational and tactical group.

According to the footage, the invaders used armored vehicles and infantry in the assault. The enemy’s movements were detected by Ukrainian defenders, who began to systematically destroy the Russian invaders.

After destroying the several units of Russian armored vehicles, enemy infantry landing from armored personnel carriers tried to gain a foothold in the forest.

However, Ukrainian drone operators and artillery struck at them. To eliminate the enemy, they used both cluster munitions and ammunition from drones.

The footage shows that two units of the Russian army’s combat vehicles are burning in the middle of the field.

“A new type of “heaters” for the Russians in the Siversk direction has already been turned on!” the military said in a statement.

The Luhansk operational and tactical group emphasized that the invaders’ manpower and armored vehicles had been destroyed by the 54th Mechanized Brigade.

Militarnyi recently reported that the soldiers of the K-2 battalion of the 54th Mechanized Brigade named after Hetman Ivan Mazepa had published a video of Russian infantrymen trying to storm Ukrainian positions in VAZ Zhiguli cars.

The video shows that the Soviet-era cars are not ordinary, but “tuned”: the roofs of the cars are cut off, the doors are removed, and an anti-drone ‘grill’ with a camouflage net is welded instead of the roof.

Previously, the soldiers of the 2nd Mechanized Battalion “K-2” of the 54th Mechanized Brigade named after Hetman Ivan Mazepa captured a Russian export-intended T-90S tank. The captured T-90S is equipped with an anti-drone “grill”, electronic countermeasure means, television surveillance cameras, and a DIY trawl.

The most noticeable difference between the T-90S and the T-90A is the trapezoidal “Indian” ERA block, which is installed instead of the useless Shtora searchlight.
