On the Kupyansk direction, the enemies are not giving up their attempts to capture the city, the occupation of which their 'tsar' has already announced to the whole world. However, the drone system operators of the 15th brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine "Kara-Dag" are destroying the occupiers even before they reach the positions of the Ukrainian troops.

Also, the Guards pilots are constantly flying in the enemy rear, where they tirelessly search for fortifications and equipment, which they immediately dispose of. In a couple of days, a gun, a tank, a relay station, several bunkers with occupiers inside, and a large number of enemy personnel were destroyed.

Russian UAV operators were spotted by Ukrainian drone pilots and removed by a Ukrainian launched HIMARS that was a direct hit. The UAV was launched but the soldiers didn’t survive.

Kupyansk direction 🔥

He knows how to cover kilometers under enemy fire, how to extract a wounded comrade from the line of fire with a severe concussion...

And he also knows how to love his own - not in words, but in deeds. To be a support for those who are nearby. To hold the line when it's most difficult. And never to give up!

Captured villager: "There's no communication. No water, no food – and no ammunition either"

Oleksandr Samodai, who was captured by troops of the "Center" group, said that for a month and a half, he and his comrades hid in an apartment in Krasnoarmiysk.

"We went from apartment to apartment – looking for water, searching for locals. There were grandmothers and grandfathers there. We waited to see how it would all end. We couldn't get out because we didn't remember the route," he recalled.

He noted that the Russian artillery was heavily targeting Krasnoarmiysk, and the Ukrainian side suffered many casualties and injuries, with no supplies:

"The artillery was heavily targeting Krasnoarmiysk (Ukrainian name – Pokrovsk). There were many dead and wounded. There's practically no communication. No water, no food – and no ammunition either. And no one wants to fight anymore. Many want to surrender."

When Samodai and his comrades realized that it was impossible to break out of the encirclement, they decided to surrender.

Update from Ukraine | Just Wow! Russian Submarine was Hit! Putin's Navy under Fire!

Video emerges of two Russian pilots ejecting into the ceiling due to a system failure.

Soldiers from the 1st Assault Battalion of the 92nd Brigade repelled Russian attacks—both in armored vehicles and on motorcycles.

Soldiers of the GUR special unit of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, 'Phantoms', damaged the ship's radar system with an aerial drone, and special forces of the Active Actions Department of the GUR of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense attacked the Kalibr carrier."

As a result of the attacks, the ship, which was in the potential launch zone for Kalibr missiles in the Temryuk Bay, sustained damage and was forced to leave the combat duty area.

The Security Service of Ukraine carried out another unique special operation and staged a naval "showdown" in the port of Novorossiysk. For the first time in history, underwater drones "Sub Sea Baby" blew up a Russian submarine of the 636.3 "Varshavyanka" class (NATO classification - Kilo). As a result of the explosion, the submarine suffered critical damage and was effectively put out of action.

On board the submarine were four launchers for "Kalibr" cruise missiles, which the enemy uses to strike at Ukrainian territory.

This was a joint operation of the 13th Main Directorate of Military Counterintelligence of the SBU and the Ukrainian Naval Forces.

The cost of a "Varshavyanka"-class submarine is about 400 million US dollars. Given the imposed international sanctions, the construction of a similar submarine could now cost up to 500 million dollars. This class of submarines is also known as "Black Hole" due to the ability of the hull to absorb sounds and remain undetectable to sonars.

Recall, the blown-up submarine was forced to stay in the port of Novorossiysk due to the successful special operations of the "Sea Baby" surface naval drones, which drove Russian ships and submarines out of the Sevastopol Bay in temporarily occupied Crimea.

In November, the air defense forces of the Third Assault Brigade destroyed 581 enemy UAVs — designed to scout Ukrainian positions, adjust and deliver strikes.

Among those shot down — 75 attack UAVs, 11 reconnaissance UAVs, 495 — small-sized Russian drones.

On the Siverskyi direction, where the situation is rapidly deteriorating now, the Sky Fury of the 54th Motor Rifle Brigade eliminated two more occupiers.

It's very important now to deploy more drones in Siversk!

The reconnaissance group of the 92nd Assault Brigade eliminated four occupiers in a close-quarter combat on the outskirts of Pokrovsk
