Ukrainian forces seized the Vovchansk Aggregate Plant

First liberation of Ukrainian territory in almost six months

All 30 buildings on the site were cleared

Units of the Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR) of Ukraine's Ministry of Defense liberated the Vovchansk Aggregate Plant from the Russian invaders.

The operation was carried out by the HUR special forces groups Stugna, Paragon, Yunger, BDK, and Terror.

The Russians turned the Aggregate Plant into their propaganda 'fortress', deploying the most motivated and professional units to defend it, including fighters of the 45th Special Purpose Detached Brigade of the Russian Airborne Forces.

HUR fighters eliminated the enemy, took prisoners to replenish the exchange fund, and handed over the territory of the Aggregate Plant under the Armed Forces of Ukraine control after clearing up all 30 buildings.
