The Russian Ministry of Defense on Thursday, April 14, published footage of the work of calculations of self-propelled anti-tank missile systems "Sturm-S" and portable anti-tank missile systems "Fagot" during a special operation to protect the civilian population of Donbass.
It is noted that the units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue to carry out tasks to liberate settlements and destroy armored combat equipment of nationalist battalions and units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).
According to the Defense Ministry, Russian calculations of self-propelled anti-tank missile systems "Sturm-S" and portable anti-tank missile systems "Fagot" provide cover, occupying firing positions in key areas. Thus, the promotion of the units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is ensured.
The Defense Ministry stressed that the anti-tankers of the Western Military District successfully repel the counterattacks of the AFU units, national battalions using tanks and armored vehicles.
According to the ministry, calculations of anti-tank missile systems destroyed the firing positions of the APU tanks, armored objects, long-term firing points and other engineering structures.
Earlier, on April 12, the Russian Defense Ministry published footage of a salvo launch of Kalibr cruise missiles as part of a special operation to protect Donbass.
The armed forces of the Russian Federation launched a missile strike with precision weapons on the objects of the military infrastructure of Ukraine.
Earlier in the day, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation showed footage of the work of inspectors of the military automobile inspection, who ensure safety when moving Russian troops even on impassable roads. It is noted that the escort is carried out by the crews of the military traffic police day and night, while sometimes the number of columns reaches seven to eight. This number is explained by the low speed with which you have to move along the roads, as well as the condition of the roads themselves.
Russia has been conducting a special operation to protect Donbass since February 24. The Kremlin noted that the special operation pursues the goals of demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine. The decision was made against the background of the aggravation of the situation in the region in mid-February due to shelling by the Ukrainian military. According to the Ministry of Defense, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are striking at the military infrastructure of Ukraine.
