But the Russians conduct assaults in small groups of two or three.

Earlier, I noted that there were full-scale assaults by 10-15 Russian troops, but now they have changed their tactics. And it's more infantry, it's “twos” or “threes”. And most of them started using FPV on fiber optics. We are now looking for ways to combat this
