Senior sailor Alexei Kryuchkov pulled wounded colleagues out of a blocked shelter under artillery fire. This was announced on November 23 by the Russian Defense Ministry.

Near one of the settlements, senior sailor Alexei Kryuchkov provided fire support to the advancing troops. During the mission, an artillery barrage began, and one of the shells exploded nearby. Kryuchkov, without hesitation, rushed to the destroyed shelter, where his wounded comrades were trapped.

Despite the ongoing shelling, he pulled the fighters out from under the rubble and provided them with first aid. Then, taking up a defensive position, he covered the wounded until the evacuation team arrived. Thanks to the bravery and determination of the senior sailor, the soldiers' lives were saved and they were safely evacuated.

The Russian Defense Ministry also highlighted the decisive and timely actions of the guard of Corporal Alexei Panov, who, being part of the tank crew, provided fire support to the advancing attack aircraft.

Arriving at the position, the tankers faced fierce enemy resistance, which slowed down the advance. Having received information about the enemy's location, Panov quickly assessed the situation and destroyed two defensive lines with accurate fire from a tank cannon. His actions caused significant damage to the enemy and cleared the way for further assault groups to advance.

On November 9, the Russian Defense Ministry reported that during a special military operation, Private Yevgeny Yershov, a senior driver of the howitzer self-propelled artillery division of the Guard, destroyed two FPV drones of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) with his professional actions and helped save the Msta-S self-propelled artillery installation. It was clarified that under conditions of intense artillery fire, when the position of his self-propelled gun was under attack, Yershov, thanks to his skill, managed to quickly move the car to a safe position, saving the lives of the crew.
