Russian technique is stuck in its own traps during counter -attacks in Kurshchyna - Forbes (Video)

The Russian attack on the control of the defense forces of the village of Plekhovo in the Kursk region failed in the most ironic way - the enemy fell into his own anti -tank traps, which he built the day before. Russian troops, probably from the 15th Pyatnyashka brigade, made a counterattack into Ukrainian positions in the Kursk region of Russia, but failed in the most unexpected way.

The column of Russian troops was trapped, stuck in anti -tank ditches and concrete barriers, which they themselves built before the invasion of Ukrainian forces into the territory of Kursk in early August. This was written by Forbes Military Viewer David ex. The attack was directed to the village of Plekhovo, which is under the control of Ukrainians. Russian troops tried to break through defensive structures, but were attacked by Ukrainian drones with explosives.

"Our warriors gave the lesson to the Russian invaders and their technique, burned dozens of armored vehicles and eliminated the enemy's staff," Ukrainian journalist Yuri Butusov wrote. Protective structures built by Russian engineers near Plehovo should be a serious obstacle for the Ukrainian offensive, but did not work properly. According to the captured Russian intelligence, defense structures were fortified outside the Plekhovo with several platoons and at least one mouth.

Together, this is several hundred soldiers. However, Russian troops were suddenly covered with a sudden onset of Ukrainian troops on August 6 and could not apply their artillery. Thus, anti-tank traps and trenches became assets for the Ukrainian 129th Territorial Defense Brigade. The Ukrainian military expected the counterattack and were ready to use these defense structures in their favor.

Ironically, but effective anti -tank traps, built by Russian engineers, played against the Russians themselves, delaying them for a long time so that Ukrainians can deploy their most powerful defense remedies, summarizes David ex. We will remind, on September 30 the military-political observer Alexander Kovalenko evaluated the losses of Russians in personnel in the battles in the Kursk region in almost two months of operation.
