On September 7, the gunners of the 123rd Separate Guards Motorized Rifle Order of Valor brigade named after Hero of the Soviet Union Kliment Voroshilov (123 OMSBR) told about their combat work in the special military operation area.

"I'm currently at a depth of about 3 m underground, with several layers of logs as a roof. This is a dugout at the front line of our 123rd Brigade gunners," Izvestia correspondent Egor Kildibekov reported from the spot.

Such fortifications and fortifications allow fighters to hide from enemy shells and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

"Our direction is Seversky. We work on manpower, on various equipment, we work constantly. At the moment, we have a duty target, that is, once every 30 seconds we have to fire a shot, if the other goal is to transfer immediately, do everything properly," said the gun commander, deputy platoon commander of the 123rd brigade of the howitzer self—propelled artillery battalion with the call sign Saen.

As an example of a target, the soldier indicated a vehicle that could deliver ammunition or provisions to the enemy. In this case, the task of the military personnel is to control the target and strike at its approach.

"The gunner changed, and this gunner hit the target twice in a row, right from the first shot," said the loader with the call sign Electrician.

He clarified that first a fire damage was inflicted on the dugout of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). In the evening of the same day, an enemy evacuation vehicle was indicated to the gunners as a target. The vehicle was also destroyed with the first shot.

"We are mainly working on the forest fields in front of Seversk. The other day we were working on manpower, on dugouts," said the senior gunner with the call sign Raccoon.

Various vehicles are also destroyed at night. Thermal imagers are a good way to identify a target in the dark.
