Ukrainian troops repelled Russian assault in Kursk oblast

The soldiers from the 36th Marine Brigade and the 1st Tank Brigade repelled a Russian assault in the Kursk oblast.

The Operational Command North published the video of the enemy’s destruction.

To defend the positions, the soldiers of the 1st Tank Brigade and the 36th Marine Brigade worked closely together to destroy enemy equipment and personnel.

After preparing their positions, the soldiers of the 1st Tank Brigade mined the direction in which the enemy was supposed to advance to the positions of the Ukrainian military.

Three enemy infantry fighting vehicles moved toward the positions of the Ukrainian military, two of which were blown up by mines, and the third managed to drive directly to the positions where the enemy assault group landed.

After the assault group landed, the Russian IFV began to return to its positions, but was successfully destroyed by the soldiers of the 36th Marine Brigade using a Javelin anti-tank system.

Having destroyed all the equipment that took part in the assault, the military began to clear the outskirts of the positions from the remnants of the enemy who managed to reach the defenders.

Despite the significant superiority of the Russians in the number of armored vehicles, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have organized a competent defense that the enemy is unable to overcome with small groups that it sends to their deaths without adequate engineering intelligence.

Also, due to the enemy’s quite disorganized defense, the Ukrainian units are capturing the Russian positions in other locations in the Kursk oblast.

The units of the 47th Mechanized Brigade made a new breakthrough to the Kursk oblast that borders Ukraine to support the Defense Forces operating in the Russian Federation.

The capture of the Russian positions took place at coordinates 51.255721, 34.547971 due to the close work of infantry fighting vehicles with tanks and the adjustment of fire from a reconnaissance drone.

The forest where the battle with the Russians took place is located near the village of Obukhivka.
