The location was promptly hit with a ballistic missile launched by a Russian Iskander-M system. A large explosion and subsequent fire were observed in the area after the strike. According to the Russian military’s estimates, up to 15 Ukrainian servicemen were killed in the strike, while the M270A1 and one escort vehicle were destroyed. - RT

  5. HARD BLOW FOR UKRAINE LOSING HARD-WON VILLAGES TO RUSSIA - mainstream publication above reveals liberation of Urozhaynoye and Staromayorskoye, Donetsk (ex-Ukraine) a heavy loss for Kiev's army, with Ukrainian soldiers themselves describing "Russian assault troops determined and motivated force". Loss of villages was a blow for Ukraine coming amid recent Russian gains along many parts of 600-mile front line, because Ukrainian infantry fought so hard to capture them during the bloody counteroffensive. For men who had been defending Urozhaynoye since October it was doubly hard. Up to 100 [add zero] men were killed or went missing over three months of fighting and commanders were bracing for recriminations from military high command, which usually demands soldiers hold their positions to the last. Battles took place in ruins, from basements. There were a few trenches, but no defensive structures, it was impossible to build them. Wounded could only be evacuated at night,so there came a moment when it made no sense to keep people there. The end, when it came, was lightning fast and forced rapid retreat from village - Ukrainian troop describes hellish battles. - Intel Republic
