More than two dozen Russian soldiers were killed during an awards ceremony after a surprise attack in eastern Ukraine over the weekend. On the day of the Russian missile and artillery forces, Ukrainian troops shelled a large cluster of Russian soldiers from the 810th Marine Brigade in Kursan region. This was informed by a serviceman of the Ukrainian armed forces, the founder of the unit Madya's Birds, Robert Brovdi Madya. According to Madya, the attack was carried out on November the 19th in the Kursan region on the day of the Russian missile forces and artillery during the award ceremony. At the same time, the Russians carefully hid this place because it was on the edge of the forest and disguised. According to a post to Telegram by Nexter, a pro-Ukrainian news outlet based in Eastern Europe, at least 25 Russian soldiers attending the ceremony were killed and another several dozen were injured. Ukrainian military commander Colonel Robert Brovdi also confirmed in a post to Telegram that the attack against the Russian brigade had killed members of the command staff.
