During the offensive in the Lugansk People's Republic (LPR), the Russian military used the Msta-B large-caliber gun and hit the stronghold of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). RIA Novosti writes about this with reference to the commander with the call sign "Ural".

“Our paratroopers were now moving forward, they ran into the enemy’s stronghold, stopped, handed over the coordinates, we worked specifically, they hit,” the military emphasized. He clarified that thanks to such interaction, the Russian army can reach new frontiers.

Another serviceman with the call sign "Givi" added that the artillerymen receive ready-made coordinates from the landing force, the infantry. It takes two or three rounds to destroy each target, he noted.

Earlier it was reported that servicemen of the first Slavic brigade of the 1st Army Corps of the Russian Armed Forces (RF Armed Forces) attacked Ukrainian positions with special “lighter” ammunition.
