The soldiers of the Skala battalion stopped and eliminated a group of invaders in the Pokrovske area.

The 425th Separate Assault Battalion “Skala” stated that the invaders do not cease their assault operations.

“Near Novohrodivka, Russians are dying in whole groups, but continue their attempts to climb the ”Skala” (ed. Rock in Ukrainian),” military representatives shared.

Frequently, fighting in this area results in close combat in the trenches.

Such an incident occurred with the battalion’s fighters when an invader was advancing towards a Ukrainian soldier and was hit by a grenade.

In most cases, enemy forces are destroyed with the help of attack drones.

“It seems that the enemy finally realized that hiding from the eyes of ‘SKALA’ is a waste of time,” the soldiers noted.

Russian troops are practically not stopping their assaults in the Pokrovsk sector and are constantly conducting reconnaissance by combat.

The weapons and tactics of warfare are standard for the area: assaults with armored vehicles alternate with the use of small infantry assault groups and highly mobile vehicles such as ATVs, buggies, and motorcycles.

On November 28, the Ukrainian General Staff reported that the military stopped 37 invader offensives in the Pokrovsk area.

Recently, soldiers of the Skala battalion also stormed enemy positions near Mykolaivka.
