Russian command sent more than a dozen assault troops to their deaths near Terny

In the Donetsk region, Russian troops made an unsuccessful assault towards the village of Terny and were eliminated.

The 60th Separate Mechanized Brigade reported that after a series of unsuccessful assaults, the enemy decided to change tactics by using armored vehicles.

“But the result is predictable and unchanged. The invaders’ equipment became scrap metal on our land, and its “human content” became fodder for birds and animals,” the military shared.

The Russian command sent infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers to the assault, some of which were hit on the way to Ukrainian positions.

The Russian infantry then tried to find a place to take cover, but the terrain was unfavorable.

Ukrainian FPV drones found it quite easy to locate and hit the Russians. Drone operators managed to eliminate more than a dozen Russian attack aircraft.

The Russians are now trying to advance to the village of Terny in the Donetsk region, located on the estuary. The invaders have advanced on the outskirts of the village but cannot go any further.

“The fact that they captured Terny and Yampolivka is a lie. Our guys are holding their positions there. They have a stronghold on the outskirts, but the guys are holding on, fighting like lions. We are covering them, dismantling their strongholds as much as possible. The assaults are ongoing, mostly starting in the morning and lasting until nightfall,” Oleksandr, call sign ‘Buryi,’ a soldier with the 60th Separate Brigade, shared.

At night, the invaders try to advance in small assault groups, Oleksandr says. They hardly use any equipment. Russian infantry recently tried to storm Ukrainian positions on modified civilian Niva off-road vehicles.

“At first, they were brave, trying to assault with mechanized columns, but when their plans failed, they started using assault groups on foot. They landed them somewhere far away to save their equipment. And then they approach our positions. Sometimes some stray equipment jumps in, but we systematically destroy it all,” the soldier reports.

Buryi notes that they are ready in advance for the Russian military’s assaults.

“Long-range scouts detect the cluster of equipment or personnel long before the assault begins. When they come within our strike range, we start working with the commanders’ teams,” the defender added.
