Reeling from their recent defeat in Avdeyevka, Ukrainian forces continue to be pummeled by Russian artillery and airstrikes.
Russian Su-34 fighter-bomber aircraft have delivered yet another surprise in the form of high-explosive bombs to the Kiev regime forces in the Donetsk People’s Republic. According to a statement disseminated by the Russian Ministry of Defense, this airstrike destroyed several Ukrainian strongholds and a Ukrainian troop formation.
This video, also released by the ministry, shows how the airstrikes are carried out.

The Russian Aerospace Forces Su-25 is a versatile attack aircraft designed to provide air support to ground forces by engaging targets such as tanks and other armored vehicles, as well as fortifications.
As part of the ongoing special military operation, the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) has released a video showing the crews of Su-25 fighter jets destroying a Ukrainian troop position in the Avdeyevka area.
The Su-25s fired unguided S-8 missiles at the position, using a pitching maneuver accompanied by a sharp climb to set a certain angle for the S-8 launch, the MoD said in a statement.
The pilots then released the heat traps before returning to the home airfield to prepare for the next flight, according to the MoD.

Snipers are essential assets in the special op, tasked with eliminating high-profile targets such as enemy officers and highly skilled specialists. In certain situations, these elite troops may also be called upon to track and eliminate ordinary enemy soldiers.
The Russian Ministry of Defense recently released footage of a sniper engaging in combat in the area of Avdeyevka. Ukrainian soldiers were attempting to change positions under cover of night when they were spotted by the skilled Russian sharpshooter, who swiftly neutralized them. Snipers adhere to a unique set of rules governing their combat behavior, operating discreetly in the shadows and striking unexpectedly.
