As soon as the column left Andriivka, it came under artillery fire from the defence forces and aerial reconnaissance began working. The second assault occurred at 08:00 to the north of Andriivka, involving infantry fighting vehicles and armoured personnel carriers.
The Russians deployed 10-12 troops. Both vehicles were destroyed, along with the majority of the Russian infantry. For the third time, at around 10:00, the Russians sent one tank and two infantry fighting vehicles along the route of the first column.
All three pieces of equipment were destroyed on the western outskirts of the village, analysts report. The Russians managed to deploy six infantry, but they began to flee the battlefield. They were targeted during the retreat, and losses are being confirmed.
