Details: It is noted that in order to break through the defences of the 79th Brigade near the village of Kostiantynivka in Donetsk Oblast, the Russians sent 11 armoured combat vehicles with infantry supported by 8 tanks into battle.

Those convoys of equipment immediately encountered strong resistance from the 79th Brigade paratroopers.

Due to the coordinated combat work of the Ukrainian units, they managed to destroy four tanks and two armoured vehicles with the Russians inside.

It is reported that 23 Russian soldiers were killed in this attack. In addition, 23 more sustained injuries.

Quote: "Having suffered significant losses, the surviving enemy equipment began to retreat, and our attack drone pilots hunted for it.
