Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu noted the courage and professionalism of tankers from the Upper Volga region

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu sent telegrams to military units and formations that participate in the Northern Military District. According to the press service of the regional government, the 10th tank regiment of the 20th motorized rifle division of the 8th combined arms army of the Southern Military District, which includes the Volga tank battalion, also received gratitude.

The head of the defense department emphasized that the unit successfully carries out tasks in one of the most difficult areas. The courage and military skill of the tank crews made a decisive contribution to the liberation of Avdeevka and other settlements of Donbass.

Now the fighters continue to advance in the Kurakhovsky direction. On April 22 they liberated Novomikhailovka.

“This is not the first time our regiment has been celebrated, it’s not in vain that we are working. Now we are being slightly understaffed and with new strength we will continue to carry out our tasks,” said the commander of the Volga tank battalion. — Your support is very important! It’s very nice to receive letters from children who remember and wait for us.”

Let us remind you that the soldiers of the Volga tank battalion serving in the Northern Military District zone are regularly sent humanitarian aid, which includes medicines, uniforms, tactical equipment and supplies, as well as letters from children. Support from their native Upper Volga region helps fighters defeat the enemy and carry out combat missions. This work is being carried out on behalf of the Governor of the Tver Region Igor Rudeni.

Also, a new convoy is now being formed, which will leave for the North-East Military District zone in the near future.
