⚡️ SSO destroys DPRK troops in Kursk

Soldiers of the 73rd Marine Center of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine repelled the assault actions of North Korean military on one of the positions of the Security and Defense Forces of Ukraine in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation.

During the enemy assault attempt, SSO operators opened fire from an automatic MK-19 easel grenade launcher and also carried out a series of drone drops.

As a result, SSO operators killed 12 North Korean soldiers and wounded 20 more.

In addition, SSO operators were able to provide first aid to a wounded infantryman from a friendly unit and successfully evacuated him from the battlefield.

Let’s keep working!

    Sounds reasonable: Even with troops in unarmored vehicles, you’re probably going to need to expend quite a bit of ammunition to hit them with these things, while drones seem to be very effective. Especially with russias ongoing tactic of “send in three guys at a time until the Ukrainians run out of ammo”, I can imagine these grenade launchers simply not being accurate enough. They look very effective at suppressing and taking out larger groups of infantry though.
