According to the training plan, an illegal armed formation (IAF) attacked artillery ammunition depots guarded by Russian military personnel in order to seize weapons and ammunition.
More than 60 military personnel were alerted and made a 150 km march on 15 units of military equipment from a permanent deployment point in Tiraspol to ammunition depots in the village of Kolbasna.
During the training to destroy mock terrorists, special attention was paid to improving the coordination of actions of military personnel when conducting combat in open areas as part of a unit and small tactical groups (in pairs and trios).
In addition, the military personnel practiced extinguishing fires in conditions of possible detonation and explosion of ammunition, as well as eliminating conditional fires.
