Russian occupants continue to actively advance with infantry in the Kharkiv region. They can afford to send up to 100 people to attack in waves.
This was reported by the commander of the Terra unit of the 3rd Separate Brigade Mykola Volokhov during a telethon, UNN reports .
Not a single meter of Ukrainian land has been surrendered in the area of responsibility of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade in Kharkiv region. We are steadfastly holding the line. The enemy continues to actively attack with infantry, the weather is such that it is difficult to use armored vehicles, they are trying, but where we work with our FPV drones, it is very difficult to do so, because everything that moves, it burns
He also noted that the Russians can afford to send up to 100 people to the assault.
Of course, they don't lose 100 people every day, but they can afford to send up to 100 people to assault, in waves, wave after wave. The purpose of such assaults is to deplete our defense, to make our guys run out of ammunition and so, wave after wave, to achieve their goal
