“In the morning, enemy troops attempted to introduce armored vehicles into the village of Shirokino. Taking advantage of the ceasefire and favorable weather conditions (there is heavy fog in the Azov region today), the terrorists tried to bring armored vehicles into the village of Shirokino,” Azov claims.
“As of 9:00 am, the Azov regiment is holding its positions. Positional confrontation continues,” the regiment’s Facebook page says.
“As a result of heavy fighting that lasted from 05:00 in the morning, the enemy was completely driven out of the village of Shirokino. The fighters of the Azov regiment showed extreme heroism, because at first the situation did not develop in our favor. This victory came at a very high price - fifty heroes were injured. Three have joined the primordial heavenly army,” the “Azovites” said at night.
