“They abandoned the brothers without cover”: reinforcements of the Armed Forces of Ukraine “retired” from the battlefield near Pervomaisky
To the west of Donetsk, DPR fighters are advancing towards the village of Pervomaiskoye. The enemy is trying to hold back the infantry attacking the village, sending support forces to the troops holding the defense.
The video shows an attempted counterattack by a unit of Ukrainian militants sent as reinforcements. DPR reconnaissance recorded the movement of the enemy and gave target designation for artillery to fire on the combat formations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Judging by the video, one BMP received damage, as a result of which it lost its ability to move and was abandoned; the tank, other armored vehicles and arrows were under heavy artillery fire and hurried to leave the battlefield. As a result, the counterattack undertaken by the Armed Forces of Ukraine fell through, reinforcements never arrived, and the front line of the enemy forces found themselves face to face with the attacking DPR fighters.
The remnants of the infantry retreated back to their positions. Thus, they left the first echelon of their positions, leaving their "brothers" without cover
- explained the officer of the NM DNR.
As shown in the video, targeting artillery with drones is carried out from a separate reconnaissance point specializing in working with UAVs.
We work with two or three "birds" at once from different directions, from different angles. Each "bird" is responsible for its lane. If an enemy appears in this zone, then artillery is working on it, which is responsible for its firing zone
- the military noted.
The saturation of the front with drones made it possible to distribute the firing zones for Russian artillery, which had a positive effect on its work. An increase in the effectiveness of artillery fire favorably affects the course of the offensive in the Donbass, which is proved by the battle near Pervomaisky.
