The commander of the 2nd Company of the 2nd Assault Battalion of the 3rd Separate Mechanized Brigade, call sign "Datsyk," released a video showing 18 bodies of the Russian invaders. He also said that there were 21 more bodies of the Russian forces around the perimeter of the forest plantation. Some of them "froze up" when the pin was torn off, while others became a pile of camouflage, where it is no longer easy to recognize a person.

The 3rd Separate Assault Brigade operates at the junction of the Kharkiv and Luhansk regions.
In August, the brigade conducted successful counterattacks in the area of Novovodiane in the Luhansk region. Recently, the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade's spokesperson Oleksandr Borodin claimed that in the Kharkiv region, the Russian invaders had been using electric scooters and motor scooters in addition to conventional military equipment to get to their positions.

"If we are talking about infantry assaults, they use everything from standard "bukhankas" (ed. "Loaves", slang for UAZ-452.) to very unusual means such as electric scooters and motor scooters. They are trying to come up with anything to move forward," Borodin added. According to him, the situation in the area where the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade is fighting is under control.
At the same time, the enemy keeps trying to attack Ukrainian positions.

"The enemy is constantly attacking.
These are infantry assaults, sometimes with the use of mechanized forces.
Fortunately, the mechanized forces are skillfully defeated by FPV drones and artillery," Borodin noted.
