In Pokrovsk sector, paratroopers kill Russians on motorcycles with assault rifles, says commander of Air Assault Forces

This was stated in an interview with Ukrinform by the commander of the Air Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Hero of Ukraine Major General Oleh Apostol.

“In the Pokrovsk sector, there are certain Air Assault Forces units holding back the enemy. As for the motorcycles, our guys ‘knock off’ in close combat. For the most part, we strike the enemy with FPV drones and ‘loitering’ drones along their movement and logistics routes,” Apostol noted.

According to him, the fighters are well-trained and fearless: As soon as they hear motorcycles, they emerge from cover and eliminate the enemy.

“For example, there was a recent incident where several motorcycles were destroyed with an automatic rifle,” the commander added.

As reported by Ukrinform, Russian troops in the south have changed their assault tactics and begun using motorcycles, ATVs, and buggies more actively to quickly traverse the “kill zone” and reach attack positions.
