The enemy tried to carry out a large mechanized attack on the Dobropillia direction, but was completely destroyed

On October 16, the 155th marine brigade made another attempt at a massive mechanized attack on Dobropil. The enemy set the ultimate goal as the capture of the settlement of Shakhove. In the morning, the enemy launched an attack with 22 units of armored vehicles. The largest column of 11 units (tanks and armored combat vehicles) left the area of ​​the settlement of Malynovka at about 7:50.

The enemy command also tried to change the tactics of the offensive. If earlier columns of enemy armored vehicles with infantry advanced from the depths of their own battle formations, this time the enemy tried to pull the equipment closer to Shakhove and hide it in the forest belt in advance.

The maneuver was unsuccessful: 2 armored vehicles were detected by reconnaissance and destroyed by artillery and FPV drones of the Unmanned Systems Forces before they even tried to hide in the forest. As a result, 9 armored vehicles of the russian occupation forces were destroyed and 4 were damaged. Marine losses are estimated at dozens of dead.

The infamous 155th marine brigade is now dying in another, Dobropillia direction, but still in such senseless, meaty assaults

The orc from russian 60th motorized rifle brigade took hostages in a store by threatening them with a grenade

He says that the reason for his act is that during the last combat mission his entire company was killed, he himself was wounded and a commander wanted to send him to the assault again. He refused to carry out the order, to which the commander said that he would tie him to a tree and sacrifice him to a Ukrainian drone or shoot him himself.

So the orc left the position, taking a grenade with him, and posted this video on the Internet, in which he demands that he be handed over to the military prosecutor's office for further consideration of this case
