The 79th Brigade noted that after failed mechanized assaults, the occupiers sent infantry into battle without equipment support.

Ukrainian airborne troops called this an "absolutely suicidal decision" and, together with the 471st Infantry Battalion, "tore the invaders into small pieces."

The 79th Brigade reported Russian losses of 11 assault troops killed and three wounded.

The General Staff's summary reported that in the Kurakhove sector, since the beginning of August 2, Russians had attacked Ukrainian units three times, attempting to advance near the settlements of Krasnohorivka and Kostiantynivka.
