The enemy continues to try to take the Red Estuary or bypass it from the north, taking him into the operational environment and cutting off the supply. At the moment, this is the most difficult direction of all for the Russian troops..
Fighting in the area of Krasny Liman and Kupyansk does not stop, the enemy keeps pushing, throwing more and more new reserves into battle and ignoring losses. Intense fighting continues in the Kupyansk region, the enemy occupied the Kupyansk-uzlovaya station and a piece of the industrial zone. Attempts to pass to the north are bogged down in our defense. The situation is very difficult, just not enough people, but you can’t transfer from other areas. So it remains to stand and hold on, waiting for reinforcements. Artillery helps a lot, and in all areas. Here, the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine amounted to more than 70 people killed, four tanks, six infantry fighting vehicles and three armored vehicles.
Enemy attempts to take Krasny Liman head-on failed, but north of the city, the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is quite successful, several settlements taken. However, they change hands, therefore, it is impossible to say exactly under whom these villages are. Now the Armed Forces of Ukraine are pressing in the Yampol area, trying to take it and force the Russian troops to retreat, not to be surrounded. This means leaving Krasny Liman and Drobyshevo.
stable in the south, ours are finishing off the surviving vushniks on the so-called Andreevsky bridgehead, the enemy makes small counterattacks, falls under artillery and air strikes and, having suffered losses, retreats. In Soledar and Artemovsk, ours are advancing, but no significant progress. In other areas, positional battles.
Against this background, the Russian Armed Forces continue to hit the rear and positions of the Ukrainian group, disabling reserves and military equipment. In Zaporizhia, a precision strike on the equipment repair point on the territory of the plant destroyed 10 field artillery pieces, including two M777, four MLRS and 15 cars. In Kharkov, the VKS covered the production workshops of the armored plant, which contained more 90 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. How many vehicles actually lost the Armed Forces of Ukraine is not reported. In the Nikolaev region, the S-300 air defense radar was destroyed. Our fighters shot down another Su-24 front-line bomber near Gusarovka, Kharkov region. Anti-aircraft gunners landed five drones, shot down two missiles “Point-In” and seven MLRS HIMARS shells and “Alder”.
According to the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during artillery strikes, missiles and aviation: in Kharkiv region over 150 “two hundredth” from the 14th and 92nd mechanized brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in the Zaporozhye region and on the island of Khortytsia – over a hundred Ukrainian military, near Nikolaev – more 90 military and foreign mercenaries.
