Fighters of the 155th Separate Mechanized Brigade took three Russian assault troops prisoner in the city of Pokrovsk, Donetsk region.

According to Ukrinform, the brigade stated this on Facebook, publishing a corresponding video.

The movement of the group of invaders was detected by aerial reconnaissance. The command of the 155th Separate Mechanized Brigade launched an operation to neutralize the enemy, providing cover for their soldiers and controlling the process with the help of drones.

Ukrainian infantrymen checked the observation area, going house by house. As a result, they discovered a basement seized by Russian troops. The enemy assault troops themselves offered to be taken prisoner, realizing how vulnerable their position was to grenades.

"Three representatives of the world's second-rate army offered no resistance," the brigade noted.
