The operation has wiped out enemy firing positions, manpower and ammunition storage sites belonging to the occupiers.

Thanks to the professional actions of the reconnaissance troops, the enemy's plans for a further offensive have been foiled. This has enabled a foothold to be established for a tactical advance by friendly units."
