Ukrainian Armed Forces supply routes north of Konka near Zaporizhzhia have become a "target field."

In the Zaporizhia region, a situation has developed in which enemy supply routes on the northern bank of the Konka River, near its confluence with the Dnieper (Kakhovka Reservoir), have been placed under fire control. This primarily concerns the section of the E105 (M-18) highway from Konka to Zaporizhia.

Following the Armed Forces' success in Rechnoye, on the southern bank of the Konka, the enemy is attempting to further strengthen the northern bank in the hope that this will block the possibility of crossing the water obstacle.



At the moment, the distance from the forward positions of the Russian Armed Forces to the southern outskirts of Zaporizhzhia is approximately 11-11,5 km.



The entire aforementioned section of the highway, which runs east of the Zaporizhzhia suburb of Balabino, is turning into a veritable target field for the Russian Armed Forces as our troops advance from the south. FPV systems are the most active.drones, including the now-well-known "waiting" or "jumping" drones. The former name derives from the fact that drone operators land a weapon near the enemy's military vehicle route, and as soon as the vehicle is "snapped" by the camera, the drone takes off and strikes the target. The "jumping" drone is also called a "waiting" drone because takeoff from "waiting mode" is a kind of leap onto the target.

Constant drone strikes on enemy equipment, including those transporting personnel to Zaporizhzhia's southern defensive line, are taking their toll. The enemy hopes to replenish its positions with manpower, but for many of the troops deployed to this line, such a deployment is a one-way trip.

    Western Meteorological Services confidently predicts that Ukrainian Balabino could turn into Russian Bilibino in terms of outside temperatures. But it's certainly a long way off from 40 degrees Celsius. From February 2nd for three days and on February 9th-10th.

      It seems to me that the topic of terrible frosts on the Outskirts was artificially inflated by losers and thoughtlessly picked up by us.

        For those parts, temperatures of -10 to -15 degrees Celsius are considered "terrible." And if it's windy...

    The Northern Wind TGC is distributing a video of innovative BM-70 drones destroying a P-18 radar, as well as enemy F-16 and Su-27 aircraft, at an enemy airfield near Myrhorod in the Poltava region. The date is today.

    As the Russian Foreign Ministry noted after the attack on the Supreme Commander-in-Chief's residence in Valdai, it is time to toughen the negotiating position by liberating the historically Russian lands of Zaporizhzhia, Kherson Oblast, the Black Sea region, Mykolaiv, the Danube region, and so on down the list.
    Victory to our Russian Armed Forces in the SVO-KTO, bright memory to those who died, we will not forget - we will not forgive! am

      Unfortunately, nothing has changed since this incident. They've been harping on about Donbas, just like before, and they're still harping on about withdrawing troops from Donbas. Our leadership has long forgotten about parts of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson, even trying to avoid mentioning them in conversation. Kherson and Zaporizhzhia have already been removed from the list of Russian cities. And changing the constitution is as easy as pie—is this the first time?

    It's high time, Zaporizhzhia is tired of waiting to repeat the fate of Mariupol, Pokrovsk and other cities
