Russian forces realize that fighting 72nd brigade near Vuhledar is difficult – machine gun platoon commander Kishak

He told the Espreso TV channel about this.

“Our fellow servicemen to the north of us do have difficult areas. Because the Russian enemy has realized that it is difficult to fight the 72nd Brigade in the Vuhledar sector. But we see that the enemy is trying to come in from other directions and break through the unbreakable path of the Ukrainian infantry in different places. Russia will now bring in more infantry, because they have no more equipment, and soon they will have none at all. It's a matter of time," Kishak stressed.

According to the commander of the machine gun platoon, Ukrainian infantry is already learning to storm enemy positions on their own and is conducting more and more assault operations every day.

"Our partners provide us not only with long-range ammunition, but also with new equipment that will work to destroy Russian infantry. The main thing is that the Ukrainian infantry is motivated and the campaign to drive the enemy out of our land has already begun," Kishak said.

• In the Luhansk region, Russian forces are pushing through to Kupiansk and Borova, while the Ukrainian Armed Forces are making progress in Bakhmut and southern Ukraine.

• Due to international sanctions and a lack of components Russia is experiencing increasing problems with strategic bombers used by the occupying Russian forces to strike at Ukrainian territory.
