Ukrainian soldiers demonstrated their ability to outsmart the enemy, winning with the enemy's own game. During contact in the combat zone, they successfully captured two occupiers by posing as Russians. This cunning plan helped save the lives and intelligence of the Ukrainian defenders. Additionally, other units successfully conducted a special operation on the approaches to Myrnohrad, capturing 11 representatives of the occupying forces.


These operations also showed that enemy troops are drawn to eastern Ukraine for a variety of reasons; these can range from a desire to obtain Russian citizenship to mundane calculations for a quick marriage. Ukrainian soldiers continue to successfully defend their land, using various tactical techniques to achieve victory in this difficult struggle.
