The Russian military is intensifying offensive operations on the Shivershchina and Bakhmut fronts.
sauce: Colonel Olaksandr Shirushkyi, Commander of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, telegram
detail: Prime Minister Shirshiki said that the situation on the Eastern Front remains difficult.
Russian forces continue offensive operations on the Shivershchina Front in order to improve their tactical position and create conditions for expanding the attack on Shiversk.
Russian strike groups, with the support of mortar and artillery units, are unsuccessfully trying to advance towards Kreminna and Hryholivka.
Shirschiky also said that Russian forces were “compensating for the failure of offensive operations by increasing the intensity of artillery fire.” Over the past two days, the Russians have deployed multiple rocket systems, aircraft, and suicide drones “to attack cities.” [it is unclear what city he is referring to – ed.].
Shirushkyi said Russian forces are also conducting offensive operations on the Bakhmut Front, attempting to break through Ukraine’s defenses south and west of Bakhmut and advance toward Chasiv Yar. The Russian military is reorganizing and deploying new “volunteer” units on this front. They are trying unsuccessfully to regain lost ground near Kryszczyvka and Andriivka.
The lack of tactical successes has forced the Russian military to take defensive positions in some areas, while keeping assault forces on standby and preparing for offensive operations.
Quote from Schilsky: “Our headquarters and commanders are responding in a timely manner to all changes in the operational situation. Today I visited the combat zone and heard a report from the brigade commander on the current situation. We worked together to assess the possibility of further action. We outlined several goals and agreed to “a series of decisions aimed at making our attacks against enemy forces more effective.” Yes, we are currently focused on using reconnaissance to locate the occupier’s primary targets, conducting precision fires, using suicide attack drones, and using electronic warfare to protect our positions. .”
