On Thursday, Russian troops attempted to break through Ukrainian defenses on the Kupiansk front, deploying four waves of assault groups supported by around 15 pieces of military equipment. Ukrainian defenders successfully repelled the attack, destroying enemy armored vehicles and inflicting heavy casualties.
Ukraine’s General Staff said that the attack came at 2:30 pm, when Russian assault groups targeted Ukrainian positions with tanks, armored fighting vehicles, and even deployed a UR-77 mine-clearing vehicle.
Some Russian soldiers reportedly wore uniforms resembling those of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, a tactic that violates the laws of war and constitutes a war crime.
Ukrainian forces though didn’t buy into it- they responded with “skillful and decisive actions”, halting the assault, destroying all enemy armored vehicles, and eliminating a significant portion of the attacking troops.
The General Staff praised the “professionalism and coordinatated actions” of Ukraine’s infantry, tank crews, artillery, and drone operators, thanking all soldiers for their bravery and resilience in its statement.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
