Ukrainian marines from the 37th Brigade carried out a successful attack on Russian positions using the Oshkosh M-ATV armored vehicle.

The vehicle transported the team directly to the offensive site, where the machine gunner opened fire to force the enemy into retreat. Under this cover, the soldiers disembarked and advanced in pairs, with one team providing support while the other set up explosives that destroyed the enemy fortification. After completing the mission, the marines quickly left the area in the M-ATV.

The attack took place near the village of Zelenivka in the Donetsk region, as detailed by the WarArchive project.

The M-ATV, widely used by the U.S. Army and other countries, is a 4×4 MRAP armored vehicle designed to withstand explosions and protect its crew. With a capacity for five people, it can be equipped with a rotating turret armed with various types of machine guns or a grenade launcher.

In addition to featuring a remote combat module, the M-ATV has a V-shaped hull to minimize the impact of explosions and special seats that absorb shocks. Its robust design allows it to reach speeds of up to 105 km/h on highways, ensuring mobility and security for military operations in challenging terrains.
