K2 unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine repulsed a tank attack near Donetsk. At first, Russians threw into combat four tanks. Then the platoon strongpoint of the Armed Forces was shelled by 152-mm artillery, mortars, self-propelled guns, and 100-mm anti-tank guns. Only after that did the enemy commence a full-blown assault with seven tanks (among them newborn T-72BZ), two IFVs, and three APCs with infantry inside.
Despite that, the Russians failed to break through the line of defense near Krasnohorivka. The Ukrainian military did not leave their positions and accepted the battle.
Ukrainians managed to stop the enemy 150 meters from their trenches. Tanks were destroyed by everything at hand, from RPGs to NLAWs. Artillery also joined promptly. According to the commander of the K2 unit, Hero of Ukraine Kyrylo Veres, the first artillery strike was carried out in seven minutes after the beginning of the battle.
Despite significant damage during the battle, the Ukrainian platoon strongpoint continues to defend the country. It was even reinforced with a machine gun taken off from a Russian T-72B3 tank. The enemy was unable to withdraw its tanks from the battlefield.
