Russian commanders sent assault groups to seize Ukrainian positions in the Donetsk region between the towns of Vodiane and Solodke. The village of Vodiane is located near the town of Vuhledar, which invaders have been trying to capture for a long time. To destroy the first convoy, a Drone Strike Company Bulava, the 48th Battalion, the 2nd Mechanized Battalion and a Shadow unit were engaged. However, Russian invaders started having problems from the beginning of the movement.

One of the tanks crashed into another and immobilized it for the rest of the battle.
