Details: The soldiers said they had previously repelled various Russian assaults involving infantry, armoured vehicles, motorcycles and quad bikes. However, this time, the Russians managed to surprise even the experienced Spartans.
Quote: "On the Pokrovsk front, the occupiers, suffering heavy losses, decided to approach Ukrainian positions in a last-ditch effort… through a body of water.
Our drones 'escorted' the failed divers. And so, the occupiers failed this swimming test."
