Ukrainian targets Russian tank in Kherson region with artillery fire

The Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported this on Facebook.

Ukrainian defenders destroy the equipment of the Russian occupiers and capture soldiers in Ukraine.

"In the Kherson direction, Ukrainian artillery hit an enemy tank that was in the area of ​​responsibility of the unit. The Ukrainian military took two Russian soldiers prisoner. Also, artillery units struck the concentration of manpower and equipment of the occupiers, and conducted a counter-battery fight", it is noted. 

In the Kherson region, Russians' losses are being clarified.

Ukrainian defenders also destroyed two BMP-2 and a tank, as well as captured three Russian soldiers.

"In the Donetsk direction, marines set up an ambush, as a result of which they destroyed 2 BMP-2, 1 tank, 15 personnel and took 3 prisoners", the Navy added.

It is reported that almost all captured soldiers are forcibly mobilized from the so-called DPR.

"From the side of the Kremlin, they have the appropriate attitude, they are driven to death like cattle and sometimes they don't even issue protective equipment. Based on this, such mobilized people don't have much of a choice. To die from Ukrainian weapons or to be shot by their own. However, there is a third option - to surrender to captivity. Ukrainians respect international law, therefore, despite all the hatred for Russian non-humans, we do not kill those who surrender", the military added.
