In the Vremivsk direction, near the village of Novyi Komar, Ukrainian defenders defeated a column of Russian armored vehicles and destroyed enemy personnel.

According to Ukrinform, the press service of the Khortytsia military unit reported this in Telegram.

“The other day, near Novyi Komar, the occupants stormed the positions of our defenders with a column of armored vehicles - three tanks and an infantry fighting vehicle. Such brazen mechanized assaults by the occupiers in the area of responsibility of the soldiers of this brigade are regular, so our defenders had time to develop a countermeasure. The unit's FPV drones were quickly dispatched to intercept the enemy's armored vehicles. Thanks to the skill and accuracy of the drone operators, both enemy vehicles and personnel were destroyed,” the statement said.

As noted, the enemy tried to break into the village of Novyi Komar north of Velyka Novosilka, but the soldiers stood their ground and stopped the enemy assault.
