Sniper pairs of the 144th motorized rifle division in the special operation zone were able to destroy two fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and injure three more, the Older Edda Telegram channel reported.
For two hours, the enemy fired at the forest plantation where our snipers were. But they successfully got out of this situation.
The author of the post emphasized that the snipers got a double benefit: the destruction of the enemy and the use of the right ammunition.
Sniper pairs of the motorized rifle division are formed from among the mobilized, writes Vlad Lobaev in his channel.
Lobaev noted that the snipers used a TSVL-8 Stalingrad tactical sniper rifle and a Counter sniper rifle.
The maximum effective fire range of the Stalingrad rifle is declared at the level of 1600 meters, and the effective firing range of the Counter rifle is up to 1400 meters.
On February 24, 2022, the Russian Federation Army launched a special military operation in Ukraine.
Acting head of the Donetsk People’s Republic Denis Pushilin said that the Russian Armed Forces are approaching Vuhledar from three directions at once: from the south, southwest and west. The head of the DPR stressed that “the process is not going fast.”
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, in turn, said that the situation in Donbass is getting tougher. According to Zelensky, a very difficult situation for the Armed Forces of Ukraine is developing in Artemovsk (Bakhmut) and Vugledar, as well as in Limansky and other directions.
