It was hot that day in the Zaporizhzhia direction. A Ukrainian T-64 tank defeated a modernized Russian T-80 armoured vehicle in the Polohi district. Against this background, there were reports of the loss of control by the Russians over two settlements at the junction of the Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk regions. A vivid video of the tank duel was published by Ukrainian MP Yuriy Mysiahin.
On June 6, information appeared that the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the 92nd Brigade, destroyed an entire company of Russian invaders with drones, consisting of former prisoners.

With the help of "wedding drones" this company was completely exterminated. Four invaders were taken prisoner.
