The result is limited – the tank is punctured, fuel is leaking onto the ground. But still – it’s nice. However, there are also effects of non-symbolic strikes. After the night strike, the Saratov fuel depot is on fire. Locals speak “good” about both “old Russia” and her “PėVėO”.
The aggressor attacked Ukrainian territory with 100 long-range attack drones of various types. Ukrainians claim to have shot down or diverted 70 drones from their targets using EW means.
Will the Russians endure a large-scale combined strike on Ukraine before the Trump-Putin meeting scheduled for next Friday?
Logic would dictate that if it hasn't hit yet, it might as well endure for another five days. But in the Kremlin, logic is no better than conscience, so anything is possible.
Kursk direction
Ukrainian forces have driven the Russians out of Bezsalivka (Tyotkino sector) and are establishing themselves in the settlement.
This settlement had become one of the main areas from which Ukrainian forces launched attacks across the border into the Tyotkino district.
However, a month ago, the Russians brought in additional forces, managed to cross the border and enter the settlement. There was a lot of bravado and bravado from the Kremlin. And now they got a beating and are returning from where they came (those who managed to escape).
Luhansk direction
Kupjanskas. Heavy fighting on the northern flank, no changes on the contact line.
Lymanas. The Russians continue to press in the forests of the southern flank. They have managed to advance south of Dibrova.
Syversk. Ukrainian forces prevented the aggressor from advancing towards Syversk. However, as we have mentioned, Russian activity on the southern flank of Lyman may correct the current situation.
Donetsk direction
Kostiantynivka. The Russians again intensively attacked the Ukrainian logistical line near Druzhkivka. There were no changes in the contact line.
Pokrovsk - Iskra, eastern flank. The sector further, if not crumbling, is at least crumbling. The aggressor is developing his success near Nove Shakhove, advancing northeast - north.
Central section. DeepState reports that the aggressor had formed three groups of 50 soldiers each, with the goal of penetrating Pokrovska in small groups, causing chaos and panic among the defenders and civilians.
These groups left Selydovė, delivering food and water via drones. The Ukrainians identified and destroyed most of them along the way, only 30 Russians reached the city. The remaining ones are currently being liquidated.
The aggressor is intensively attacking the city with everything it has. The 3-ton KAB3000 is also being used.
South direction
A few days earlier, Russian aviation had attempted to destroy the bridge over the Dnieper and isolate the Korabel district of the city.
Ukrainian aviation demonstrates that this game can be played by two. It struck the aggressor battalion's control point in Oleškis. It is likely that the battalion commander and his minions were the minuses.
