Russian artillerymen collapsed an important bridge for the AFU near Kurakhovo

Russian artillerymen of the "South" group of troops have collapsed a bridge important for the logistics of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) in the vicinity of Kurakhovo. Izvestiya has at its disposal footage of the Russian Armed Forces servicemen's combat work.

"Being deep underground, without leaving this place, the chief of staff of the artillery regiment sees the entire battlefield in front of him, and even in the smallest detail," said Izvestia correspondent Stanislav Grigoriev.

It is noted that Russian artillerymen managed to destroy the location of Ukrainian militants. From the place of defeat begins to go smoke.

"We can not stand in one place, especially the self-propelled gunners. Our task is always to move, so we do not stand at one firing position for more than a day, we are constantly maneuvering in the area of firing positions," pointed out the commander of the self-propelled artillery regiment, Lieutenant Colonel of the Russian Armed Forces Alexei Morozov.

According to him, the Russian Armed Forces are successfully and rather quickly moving forward. As Morozov emphasized, in order to keep up with the infantry, the artillerymen have to advance 2-3 km at least once every two days.

Earlier, on November 18, the Russian Defense Ministry reported that Uragan MLRS systems hit a cluster of AFU equipment in the South Donetsk direction. After the firing, the crews began to quickly change their firing positions, making a counter-fire maneuver to avoid being hit by the enemy's counter-battery fire.

The special operation to defend Donbass, the start of which was announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin on February 24, 2022, continues. The decision was made against the backdrop of the worsening situation in the region.
