A Russian sabotage group was ambushed by border guards while trying to break through the defenses of Ukrainian defenders in the Donetsk Region. This was reported by the State Border Guard Service on its Facebook page on Tuesday, December 13.

The State Border Guard Service notes that border guards stopped the advance of Russian saboteurs in the Donetsk Region. The occupiers were moving along the forest belt when they came across the ambush.

"In the Donetsk Region, the invaders tried to break through the line of defense of the Ukrainian defenders. Nevertheless, moving through the forest belt, they were ambushed by border guards. With a sudden attack, our fighters inflicted losses on the enemy and forced the sabotage and reconnaissance group,” the report said.
