Snipers of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine stopped the advance of a Russian unit that was going to attack a stronghold of Ukrainian defenders in a direction near Bakhmut, Donetsk region.

"A border guard sniper group stopped the advance of the enemy infantry in one of the directions near Bakhmut. The occupiers' rifle unit advanced to attack a stronghold of the Ukrainian defenders," the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine reports.
