      Before leaving for Donetsk airport, Ruslan exchanged his AKM with a soldier from another company — he gave away his AKM and took a PKM machine gun in return. On January 17, he suppressed a large-caliber machine gun "Utyos" with a barrage of fire from the 7.62 PKM, thus covering the evacuation of 17 wounded.
