Ukrainian paratroopers successfully repelled a Russian assault in the Mariinka sector, according to the 46th Airmobile Brigade. The brigade posted a video on their Telegram channel showing the destruction of Russian equipment during the assault. The enemy, consisting of two convoys, attempted to approach the paratroopers’ positions. The first convoy, consisting of five vehicles, was detected by aerial reconnaissance and subsequently destroyed by the battalion’s drones and anti-tank missile systems. The second convoy, consisting of three vehicles, was also completely destroyed by fire. As a result of the assault, three Russian vehicles were destroyed, two were seriously damaged, and the Ukrainian forces suffered no casualties.

The destroyed Russian equipment includes two armored fighting vehicles, two MT-LBs, and one armored personnel carrier. Additionally, one MT-LB and a T-90M Proryv tank were damaged. It is worth noting that the number of destroyed and captured tanks, including the T-90Ms, has already exceeded one hundred. Based on publicly available information, analysts estimate that 100 T-90M tanks have been destroyed or damaged. These losses are significant when considering the losses of other Russian tanks in the conflict.
