8 years ago, the Armed Forces of Ukraine together with the border guards defended the border in the area of the Dovzhansky checkpoint. During the day and night, grenade launchers, mortars, heavy artillery and "Grady" "worked" at the positions of the border guards. Despite this, the guys heroically held the defense of "Dovzhanskyi" for 22 days. Ukrainian defenders broke through the enemy ring for 3 days.
