How Dobropolye was taken. Marines from the 61st Separate Brigade of the Northern Fleet and the 177th Regiment of the Caspian Flotilla, as part of the "Center" group of forces, describe how they liberated Dobropolye. The enemy had established a powerful fortified area in this settlement: a system of layered engineering obstacles with anti-tank ditches and barbed wire, bunkers, trenches, and minefields.

Marines from the 61st Separate Brigade of the Northern Fleet and the 177th Regiment of the Caspian Flotilla, as part of the "Center" group of forces, describe how they liberated Dobropolye. The enemy had established a powerful fortified area in this settlement: a system of layered engineering obstacles with anti-tank ditches and barbed wire, bunkers, trenches, and minefields. Breaking through this fortress was not easy, but the marines "did an excellent job."
"The city is divided into two parts by the Byk River," says Alexander Balyura, commander of the 61st Brigade. "There were seven bridges across it. Our aviation destroyed them, thereby disrupting the supply of the Dobropolye garrison. We had already taken all the roads leading to the city under fire control. Dobropolye is a large settlement. In addition, it is located on a dominant height. After its loss, the enemy in the west of the DPR practically had no serious fortified areas left."
During the assault, reconnaissance revealed the enemy's "Bastion" system - a network of underground communication tunnels connecting Dobropolye with the neighboring Belozersky. Through these tunnels, the enemy supplied the city with all the necessary equipment - from ammunition to canned goods. Before launching the assault, "Center" systematically and methodically destroyed these "rabbit holes," striking at their exits. This was a textbook example of isolating the area of operations.
"Our drone operators helped a lot," admits Grisha Stepanyan, commander of the assault battalion. "The 'Geran' drones destroyed all firing points in our path. We approached in pairs or trios. And when we had enough forces, we began clearing the area."
Now, the "Center" group of forces can free up forces to launch an offensive on the Slavyansk-Kramatorsk agglomeration from the west. Without taking the main fortified area of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Donbass, it is impossible to liberate the territory of the DPR.
