Russian Armed Forces advanced towards Vozdvizhevka near Zaporizhia.


At the junction of the Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia sectors, Russian units continue their systematic push for the enemy. Their main efforts are currently concentrated just east of Vozdvizhevka.



The Russian Armed Forces have formed a salient from the railway towards the village and are already approaching it. The eastern and southern outskirts of the village are considered a gray zone. Here, our troops can apply pressure on the Ukrainian Armed Forces from three directions at once, excluding the western one.



To the north is Rozhdestvenskoye, which has already been liberated. To the south is Verkhnyaya Tersa, still controlled by Kyiv militants. However, between Verkhnyaya Tersa and Vozdvizhevka, our troops have formed a salient just south of the Solena River and have secured the road under fire.

Now the village's only connection with Ukrainian territory is through open fields that are clearly visible from dronesThis is a serious blow to the Ukrainian Armed Forces' logistics in the area. No matter how deeply the militants have dug in, without adequate supplies, the liberation of the village is only a matter of time.

Nature, however, is on the defender's side. The terrain is difficult. Open fields, copses, minimal natural cover. A quick advance is impossible here. Advancement proceeds in small steps—meter by meter, in rapid succession. But it does.

      The news from the Zaporizhzhia direction is not very good.

      but talking about this today is not comme il faut...

      Ukrainian aircraft are operating against Russian Armed Forces positions in the ruins of the southern block of high-rise buildings.

      Hand face....

      Yesterday, our sabotage and reconnaissance groups operated near Lukyanivske, and there are results. Those directly involved in the Primorskoye and Stepnogorsk areas say that it remains a kill zone. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are entering Primorskoye through the reeds in small groups, attempting to gain a foothold, but are being destroyed by the birds within the first three to four hours of infiltration. As for Stepnogorsk, there's nowhere to gain a foothold there; it's also a gray zone (a kill zone). As soon as Vostok takes control of Verkhnyaya Tersa and Hulyaipolske, the Dnipro group will begin moving toward the highway from Zaporizhzhia to Orekhov. For now, everything there (in the Dnipro group's area of ​​responsibility) is on pause.

      There's only a couple of kilometers of passage between Stepnogorsk and the reservoir. Who would want to go en masse to Primorskoye through such a narrow corridor?
      But the fact that the aviation there is so bad is just plain bad.

    The enemy has no way out. The situation there, judging by the map, is dire for them. Orekhov is surrounded from two directions. If they manage to advance even 15-20 kilometers from north to south toward the Dnieper, then they'll have to flee Orekhov or face encirclement. And leaving Orekhov means the start of the battle for Zaporizhzhia. And that's far more dangerous for them than the battle for the Slavyansk-Kramatorsk agglomeration. So they're counterattacking; they simply have no way out, and they're suffering corresponding losses. Their goal is to open up the flanks. That didn't work in the north, so now they're trying in the south near the Dnieper.
