The military chronicle published a video of military correspondent Stanislav Obishchenko. Allegedly, before trying to attack the positions of the Russian Armed Forces on May 3, Ukrainian artillery and aviation were actively working.

After the first hits of the D-20 howitzers and ATGMs, two tracked armored personnel carriers and two vehicles were destroyed. The last Ukrainian armored personnel carrier tried to take out the surviving infantrymen, but was destroyed. Earlier, the head of the movement "We are together with Russia" Vladimir Rogov said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine retreated after an attempt to reconnoiter in force.
