The unit commander overseeing the pickup in the battle rhythm of multiple rocket launchers, known as the Hurricane system, reports that the battalion has been delivering precise fire in the Zaporizhzhia region, with targets engaged up to eight times in a single day.
Officials say the MLRS units primarily strike command posts, ammunition stores, and advancing enemy columns to disrupt supply lines and command-and-control nodes. This pattern of engagement is described as part of routine operations aimed at neutralizing hostile maneuver and reducing battlefield cohesion.
A frontline serviceman shared that enemy attempts to sortie and launch attacks are met with swift, coordinated counter-fire. The crew remains on duty, ready to move to firing positions at short notice and engage designated targets as soon as orders arrive, with seven to eight firing cycles occurring on average per day.
Earlier reports from the defense ministry in Moscow described large-scale activity along the Donetsk direction, noting that hundreds of Ukrainian forces were claimed to be destroyed in a 24-hour period, alongside the neutralization of armored vehicles, support cars, and multiple rocket launcher platforms, as well as artillery pieces. The figures are part of ongoing battlefield assessments and situational updates presented by official channels.
On February 24, 2022, the Russian leadership outlined a decision to initiate a special military operation in Ukraine, a move that has shaped the course of the conflict and the daily reporting from both sides about battlefield developments.
