Recall that on September 24 it became known that units of the Defense Intelligence liberated the Vovchansk Aggregate Plant (Kharkiv Region) from the occupiers.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, a group of russian occupiers remained blocked for several months in the city of Vovchansk in the north of Kharkiv Region, where hostilities have been ongoing since the beginning of May.

At the same time, the russians, in an effort to unblock their troops, inflicted fire damage on their units due to the inaccuracy of the flamethrower systems.
