Snipers of the motorized rifle regiment of the 25th combined arms army of the Zapad group of forces neutralized the observation posts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) and disrupted the rotation of manpower, ensuring the advance of assault units in the Krasnolimansk area in the area of the special military operation.

The sniper deuce, having received the order, secretly moved to the combat zone. In conditions where the enemy was actively using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for reconnaissance and attacks, and the terrain was difficult and subjected to constant artillery fire, the choice of a shooting location was carried out with the utmost care and careful camouflage.

Having equipped a firing position, the snipers began to observe the enemy, analyzing his movements and waiting for the right moment to fire. Having fired a well-aimed shot, they destroyed the target at a distance exceeding 1.5 thousand meters, which is typical for their conditions.

"We work in pairs. We identify enemy positions and cover the assault groups. We're watching more. We are already working on identifying the target," the sniper with the call sign Sava shared.

The high effectiveness of sniper weapons at such long distances is explained by several factors: excellent sniper training and the use of modern equipment such as optical and thermal imaging devices.

On October 26, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported that the Metis anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) crew of the Zapad motorized rifle regiment destroyed the personnel and equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Krasnolimansk area of the SVR. It was clarified that the crew had secretly moved to the firing position to carry out the strike. They used the features of the landscape and shelter to disguise themselves.

All important news is on the Izvestia channel in the MAX messenger.
