The 336th Marine Brigade captured the village of Malijewka entering the area of Djepropetrovsk.
On the basis of the published movie material, in the tip of which you can clearly see how Russian marine soldiers present flags at various locations of the village of Malijewska, it can be reliably confirmed that Russian troops captured the village and crossed the border of the Donetsk Oblast. The Russian troops of the “East” Group of General Adriej Ivanev entered the area of Djepropietrowski.
Following the capture of the village of Komar and Woskrasienka, the Russian battalions of the 336th Independent Guards of the Belarusian Marine Brigade of the Baltic Fleet, fighting in the 36th Army of the Russian National Army of the ‘East’ Group, in a dense bloody fight crashed the battalions of the Ukrainian 31st Mechanized Brigade forcing it to retreat. Ukrainians defended themselves on the line of strong field fortifications built by engineering units a year ago, supporting respective squadrons of barrel and rocket artillery from the 48th Artillery Brigade and drone units.
The Russians – the "Baltian Morpies" had strong support from 305 Artillery Brigades and their attack preceded the bombing of Ukrainian positions (31th Mechanized Brigade), by the Su-34 11 WWS Air Army bombers with FAB-500M62 UMPK-M.
Importantly, direct support for Marine Guards was provided by Ka-52 Alligator assault helicopters, whose work was coordinated by air strike guidance officers through appropriate communications. This aspect of the cooperation of the Marines and Army Aviation is simply a canon of marine infantry training and has just been utilized in combat.
The breach on the right flank has already entered the Russian battalions of 37 firearm Brigades Mechanized by attacking Ukrainian 141 Mechanized Brigade positions.
Russian actions falsified the hypothesis that the Russian army would halt at the administrative border of the incorporated Donetsk Oblast. no of these things, the Russians in the “East” group's belt of action clearly invade the Djepropetrovsk region.
