Azor....not much in the way of accurate info as the UAF is not talking....
Evidently it evolved out of a constant amount of shelling coming from this one location and UAF has not been returning much counter fire other than when threatened by ground attacks trying to remain inside Minsk 2 and not be accused for violating it by both Putin and the West.
Rumored from one comment was that it was a joint infantry attack supported by Mech side....25th BN and the 52nd Brigade a battle hardened UAF Mech line unit fighting since 2014
Rumored was 11 or so UAF wounded but that did not show up in their daily ATO briefing. No comments on any KIA outside of these WIAs.
IMHO it had a two fold effect;
1. destroyed a major artillery position and base camp that had been causing loses
2. showed the Russian military and her mercenaries the UAF could at their choosing make a very specific rapid attack and advance as fast and as far as they wanted to go
AND did it get their attention as it has been the Russians and her mercenaries constantly attacking over the last year and the UAF basically sitting and taking it...example the DNR has been on a massive police/security lock down looking for "raiders". via car searches/roadblocks...so maybe also there was a UAF SF unit or two also involved....
Once the objective was cleared the UAF units returned back to Minsk 2 front lines....
This is from the vk account of the so called dnrarmy showing the positions as of 1/6/2016

BTW...the Russians mark their map with the following colors
RED friendly forces
BLUE enemy forces
This is the reverse by the US Army
RED is enemy
Blue is friendly
We saw this Russian map marking method used when I worked with them in 2012/2013 during the Atlas Vision exercises held in Germany
