After securing a new location for a FOB in the northern area of the region, Norse came into contact with remnants of invading Russian forces that were fleeing to the east. These units were engaged and eliminated with relative ease.
Continuing recon further into enemy territory, two smoke plumes were identified by Aviation. Norse proceeded to the location, and found two burnt out Tigrs and multiple dead Russians, but were immediately fired upon my a sniper, then hit with incredibly accurate mortar fire. Suffering severe casualties, the remaining members of Norse retreated from the area. No information was gathered about the identity of the attackers, however a squad of Ukrainian Recon soldiers positively identified the dead Russians as members of FSB's Vega Group.
