Two attacks on border regions have been repelled, the Defense Ministry has said.
Videos demonstrating the aftermath of failed Ukrainian incursions into Belgorod Region were published by the Russian Defense Ministry on Tuesday.
Several raids into the Belgorod and neighboring Kursk regions were launched by Kiev’s forces earlier the same day. All the attacks were repelled by the Russian military and border guards, the ministry said, saying that Ukrainian troops had failed to break through.
Footage put out by the ministry shows what appears to be heavy armor abandoned by the attackers. One clip shows what appears to be a Soviet-made T-72 tank equipped with reactive armor that was abandoned by Ukrainian forces near a Russian border checkpoint. The vehicle is shown sitting in the middle of a road with its chassis severely damaged and thick smoke pouring from its hull. The tank’s hatches are open and its crew is nowhere to be seen.
Another clip shows two pieces of armor stationary in a field. It is unclear what kind of heavy equipment is shown in the video. The defense ministry said that the Ukrainian troops taking part in the attack were supported by several US-made armored vehicles, which were destroyed by Russian forces. The video was shot near another Russian border crossing, it added.
Earlier in the day, the ministry said that Kiev’s forces lost up to 60 servicemen, five tanks, and one armored combat vehicle in the failed attack on Belgorod Region. The attackers were repulsed using missiles, artillery, and aviation, it added.
In Kursk Region, Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance groups also sought to breach the Russian border but were forced to retreat after suffering heavy losses, the ministry stated.
Tuesday’s attacks were the latest attempts by Ukrainian forces to break through the Russian border over the past few days. All such assaults have been repelled, according to the Russian military and security services.
According to the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB), since March 10, Kiev has lost over 100 servicemen, six tanks, a French Caesar artillery system, and 20 armored vehicles in such assaults.
The sad fact is a lot of those fighting on the Ukraine side have been coerced into doing so. I hope Russia prevails and this ends soon.
Russia is the only force and nation standing between what was once the ‘Christian West’ and the attempts of a J3wi$h-Zionist take-over of the same.
Of course, the media being owned by J3w$ (verified by Aleksander Solzhenytsyn) will never report anything truthful, but instead will spin the ‘Lies of Entertainment’.
This is verified via Zionist Chabad Rabbi Schneerson in 1994, when he planned to foment war between Russia and the Ukraine, so that both sides (in his view) would destroy each other, and the J3w$ from Israel would re-invade the Ukraine and western Russia, thus re-establishing J3wi$h ‘Greater Khazaria’ and the regions thay were kicked-out of in the 900AD time frame by a Russian Prince (Maps available online for both Khazaria and ‘Greater Israel’ in the Middle East).
Victoria Nuland and Volodomir Zelensky (both J3w$) conspired in 2014 to do exactly that!
The Ukraine offers fertile fields, sea access, inland ports, and water. Israel is running out of water, and never had fertile fields…!
The Israelis and the Zionists in the Ukraine must be defeated, their power-base removed, and the J3wi$h/Zionist war criminals prosecuted with executive action.
