Footage from the video of the 77th Brigade Ukrainian paratroopers repelled a Russian armored attack near Novoselivske in the Luhansk region. The 77th Separate Airmobile Brigade said that the Russian invaders were trying to break through the defense line.

"Tanks, IFVs, armored personnel carriers and tanks with grills were advancing. But all in vain. The paratroopers were relentless in their destruction," remarked the paratroopers.

For the recent assault, the Russian command used T-90A, T-72B3, and T-72B tanks, which were equipped with protective grilles. However, the Ukrainian military managed to stop the invaders and destroy these tanks.

To stop the tanks, various means were used. Then the tanks were finished off with the help of attack drones.

The battle took place near the village of Novoselivske, which was liberated by the Ukrainian military in December 2022. It is located on the outskirts of the Luhansk region, near the border with the Kharkiv region.

The nearest large settlement nearby is Svatove, which is less than 15 km away.

All residents have left the village, and there are no more living conditions there: all the houses in the settlement were completely destroyed. Currently, according to a map by Deep State analysts, most of the village is under Russian occupation.

Back in 2023, the Russian invaders began to conduct armored assaults toward Novoselivske.

Last August, the Russian invaders managed to occupy several streets in the village.

However, over the year, the Russians failed to completely capture the village.
