Servicemen of the 1st Slavic Brigade of the People's Militia of the Donetsk People's Republic (NM DPR) told the Lenta.ru correspondent about an unusual way of storming the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).

According to them, during one of the operations to seize the trenches, pepper was used.

The military attached a package with a mixture of red and black pepper to the UZRGM (fuse for a hand grenade) and threw it into the dugout. In a closed space, a cloud of pepper seriously affected the mucous membranes. “The enemy ran out to surrender in tears,” one of the servicemen said. According to him, during the operation, the unit suffered no losses in killed and wounded.

Now, in the conditions of the training ground, assault groups are working out the possibility of dropping "pepper bombs" from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

Earlier, Russian soldiers from the 155th Separate Guards Marine Brigade of the Pacific Fleet, in an interview with Lenta.ru, spoke about a unique story with a “tank ram”. During the battle, they managed to push the BMP of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (APU) into the minefield with a ram attack, as a result of which the enemy’s armored vehicles were hit.
