Ukrainian Armed Forces repel Russian assault in Bakhmut direction - company commander Fedorenko

He said this on the Espreso TV channel.

"Today, at 5 a.m., Russia attacked the Ukrainian brigade's defense with armored vehicles, including armored personnel carriers and infantry. As a result, Russia's armored vehicles, which came within range of Ukrainian brigade anti-tank and unmanned vehicles, were damaged or destroyed. Thanks to the successful work and organization of the 92nd separate assault brigade commander, intelligence, artillery, anti-tankers, infantry, and the air reconnaissance strike component, it was possible to quickly identify Russia's intentions and destroy them on the approaches," he said.

Bakhmut remains a priority area, Russia has a fairly high concentration of artillery, both trailed and self-propelled artillery systems, rocket launchers, which hit the positions of the Defense Forces and conduct remote mining, noted Fedorenko.

"If we talk about the nature of Russia's actions, the task remains unchanged. The invaders want to regain lost positions, dominant heights and footholds. They are conducting strike and assault operations around the clock in this area, trying to gain a tactical advantage," added the UAV company commander.

According to him, Russia's foot assaults are ongoing, but the Defense Forces hold a tactical advantage.
