Corporal Yuriy Skrynnikov, as part of the self-propelled artillery installation crew, carried out tasks to defeat fortified positions and armored vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). The Russian Ministry of Defense on Monday, April 7, reported on the exploits of Russian servicemen committed in the area of a special military operation (SVO).

During aerial reconnaissance using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), Skrynnikov discovered an enemy stronghold, as well as military equipment concentrations. The corporal transmitted the coordinates of the targets to the headquarters in time, which allowed the Russian gunners to quickly strike the targets.

Also, during aerial surveillance, Skrynnikov noticed that three AFU FPV drones were approaching one of the Russian guns at once. Aiming at the targets with small arms, the corporal destroyed them one by one.

The Defense Ministry also noted the courageous and selfless actions of the guard of Junior Sergeant Alexander Plyusnin, who discovered an enemy sabotage and reconnaissance group secretly moving in the direction of the Russian troops. Plyusnin promptly reported to the command the coordinates of the enemy's location, after which he joined the battle. Under the incessant shelling of the enemy, the Russian soldier continued to conduct targeted small arms fire until the enemy retreated.
