The attack was repelled by paratroopers of the 79th Separate Air Assault Tavriia Brigade – the Russian equipment was left burning in a field, and most of their infantry were killed.

Quote: "An anti-tank gunner from one of the brigade’s units, Junior Sergeant ‘Grey-Haired’ Andrii H., distinguished himself in this battle. With well-aimed shots from a Javelin anti-tank missile system, he destroyed four armoured vehicles, thwarting the enemy's attack.

This brought the skilled warrior’s personal kill count of destroyed enemy equipment to 22."
