The area was tactically significant because it was a Russian bridgehead on the western side of the Donets-Donbas canal, which marked the frontline through parts of the area, the ministry said in its update, posted on Twitter.
72 SMRB is an element of Russia’s 3rd Army Corps, a formation created in autumn 2023 and dogged with allegations of poor morale and limited combat effectiveness.

This is the Russian mindset right there. They attack the Ukraine but it is Ukraine's fault and everybody knows it. What a crazy thing to say.I bet even Kazan and Delta7 are not this stupid.
Look at the map above. Both are majority Russian
