Under constant threat, the border guards on the Kupiansk front construct deadly obstacles and dig deep for victory
Border guards of the Pomsta Brigade on the Kupiansk axis are doing far more than just engaging enemy armor, they are digging, hauling, and weaving a web of defenses that literally shape the battlefield and save lives. Every day, these anti-tank specialists alternate between taking precise shots at hostile vehicles and elbow-deep work on their fortifications, acutely aware that a well-prepared defense can mean the difference between holding the line and giving ground.
At the heart of their defensive scheme lies concertina wire, known in Ukrainian as yehoza, a spiraling coil of razor-sharp steel designed to slow and disorient any advancing force. Once emplaced, this deadly barrier doesn’t merely delay the enemy; it funnels them into kill zones where the border guards can spring their ambushes or bring direct fire to bear from covered positions.
Under the constant threat of enemy artillery and drone strikes, shifting earth and stringing wire is perilous work, but these troops dig in nonetheless, reinforcing trenches, camouflaging firing pits, and constructing anti-tank obstacles to blunt any counterattack.
Their grueling labor often goes unseen behind the lines, yet it forms the backbone of frontline resilience. Each tangled coil of wire and every meter of freshly dug trench stands as a testament to their determination: a physical manifestation of the adage that the best offense is a strong defense.
As the situation around Kupiansk continues to evolve, the Pomsta Brigades remain committed to their dual role – striking with deadly precision at enemy armor while tirelessly preparing the ground beneath their feet.
As Defense Express previously reported, the National Guard of Ukraine has significantly boosted its combat potential with the recent arrival of modern armored vehicles, including German-made Leopard tanks. Delivered through the support of international partners and Ukraine’s military-political leadership, the Leopard 1A5 and Leopard 2A4 variants are now in service with frontline units.
Such work is essential to assure more dead cockroaches. This is what it’s all about; to have as many rotting ruskies as possible.
Now that the nazi occupiers are out of APCs it looks like the razor wire can round them up. They certainly can’t return to their bases because they’ll get shot for that. Their choice; get snagged and sniped in the razor wire or get shot and eaten back at your base………
This trick reminds of a fish trap. You place sticks in a way that collects fish into a smaller area and eventually into the trap.
The razor wire will also stop dirt bikes and electric scooters.
