The Defence Forces in the Kupyansk direction destroyed an armored column of the Russian army

At dawn on April 11, Russian forces once again attempted to break through the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ defence in the Kupyansk direction. However, their offensive operation ended in failure.

Ukrainian defenders effectively neutralized armored vehicles even on the approaches to the positions. The relevant footage was shown by the commander of the 429th Separate Unmanned Systems Regiment "ACHILLES".

The enemy’s armored column, which included tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, was moving toward the Defence Forces’ positions. Thanks to the coordinated actions of the 429th Separate Unmanned Systems Regiment "Achilles" together with the units of the 77th Separate Airborne Brigade, they managed to timely detect the enemy and prevent the breakthrough.

During the combat operation, the "Achilles" crews destroyed two enemy tanks and hit two more IFVs.

"The enemy does not cease attempts to break through to the Defence Forces’ positions in the Kupyansk area. Yesterday, on April 11, at dawn, the enemy’s armored vehicles with infantry were moving towards our combat orders in the Kupyansk area. Thanks to the coordinated work of the 429th Separate Unmanned Systems Regiment "ACHILLES" and the 77th Airborne Brigade, the occupier was timely detected, and the assault was repelled," the statement reads.

Ukrainian military continue to hold the defence and destroy enemy equipment, giving no chance for a breakthrough.
