Paratroopers destroy nine Russian howitzers in Serebriansky Forest area

According to Ukrinform, the brigade reported this on Telegram.

Over the past day, the brigade's unmanned combat systems units destroyed nine Russian artillery systems in the Serebriansky Forest area. Eight of them were D-30 towed guns, and another was a 2S3 Akatsiya self-propelled artillery unit.

Currently, the enemy's key objective in this area remains the capture of the coastal territories of the Siverskyi Donets River and the occupation of dominant heights. If successful, this could give the Russians an advantage in the use of weapons.

In addition, Russian troops continue to attempt to infiltrate the inter-position space of the 81st Separate Airborne Brigade, using small infantry groups of up to two people. They operate at night, using anti-thermal ponchos and unfavorable weather conditions for covert movement. 

Despite the difficult terrain and unfavorable weather conditions, units of the 81st Airborne Brigade continue to hold their positions and restrain the advance of Russian troops in their area of responsibility.

As reported by Ukrinform, Russian troops are accumulating reserves in the Siversk area and deploying deployment points in the Serebriansky forestry to capture Dronivka in the Sloviansk direction.
