Third Army Corps holds back Russian offensive at last line of Donbas – Biletsky

The Third Army Corps, conducting a large-scale defensive operation in Borovsk and Lyman areas, has held back the Russian offensive at the last line of Donbas, said the commander of the Third Army Corps, Colonel Andriy Biletsky.

"Our bridgehead is the last line of defense of the Northern Donbas and Kharkiv region. The corps holds about 150 km - this is about 12% or 1/8 of the entire length of the front. It is safe to say that the Third Corps is already influencing the course of this war," Biletsky said in a video published on the corps page.

The commander emphasized that their section of the front is the second most intense in terms of enemy assault actions, but the soldiers do not only defend themselves, but also launch counterattacks.

He noted that in these battles the corps is already acting as a single combat mechanism and continues to scale up, attracting new units.

"Here and now we are creating a structure capable of effectively waging war and defining its new rules. We are adapting to new challenges, scaling up solutions that have proven their effectiveness on the front lines, and introducing innovations," the commander emphasized.

According to Biletsky, there are currently thousands of combat and non-combat positions open in the corps: air defense, drones, electronic warfare, medicine, communications, repair, logistics and other critical areas.

"There is a place for everyone in our team. I invite you to join the Third Army Corps to change and make history together," he urged.
