The Armed Forces of Ukraine liberated the settlement Makarivka (June 13, 2023)

Makarivka in Donetsk region returned under the Ukrainian flag: marines showed how they liberated the village from the Russian invaders.

Video from the 35th Separate Mechanized Marine Brigade (I made the cut with gifs).

A marine with the call sign "Berlin" said that when the Ukrainian troops approached on "Mastiffs", the Russians immediately began to retreat across the field to the right of the village.

Yes, dealing in equal combat with the army is not the same as shooting rockets at residential buildings in peaceful cities!

But not all succeeded: some of the occupiers died, some were captured. The captives reported that they belong to the "Storm Z" unit.

After the escape of Russian soldiers from Makarivka, the Russians began to destroy the village from afar with artillery and aircraft. TOS "Solntsepyok" also began to engage, but after the start of the counter-battery fight, it soon withdrew from its position and left the range.

Also this morning, the armed forces advanced up to 1 kilometer in the Berdyansk direction, the area of ​​the liberated territory was up to 3 square kilometers.

Brigadier General, commander of the "Tavria" troop group Oleksandr Tarnavskyi reported that this morning the Armed Forces destroyed about 4 enemy companies in the Tavria direction. On this part of the front, 25 units of enemy military equipment were destroyed and damaged. In particular, we are talking about 6 tanks, 5 units of BMP, MTLB, howitzer 2C19 "Msta-S" and automobile equipment. Enemy BC warehouses were also destroyed.
