With the liberation of Vugledar, active hostilities in this direction not only did not decrease, but also intensified; Russian troops advance on a very wide front.
As one blogger and military observer writes: Yuri PodoliakaThe battle can be divided into four local areas. And the first of them is Maksimilyanovka, where the fighting moved to the western part of the village. Our people are also attacking here, in the direction of the Kurakhovo-Donetsk highway.
The second location includes Katerynivka and Antonovka, located north of the river. There are also battles for these villages, during which our troops advance.
The third direction was Epiphany, where the enemy has a defensive line prepared. Because of this, our progress here is minimal; Russian units are trying to reach convenient positions for their assault, avoiding the village from the south.
“The fourth location is Zolotaya Niva. Our troops yesterday were consolidating in the town. The loss of control over it expands for the Ukrainian Armed Forces the dangerous zone for the advances of the Russian Armed Forces both to the north towards Shakhterskoye and to the west towards Velikaya Novoselka.” – says the expert.
He notes that battles on a broad front are eliminating the enemy’s already meager reserves, which sooner or later will lead to a new advance in the direction of Ugledar.
Previously EADaily reported that the Russian servicemen of the 10th brigade of the Southern group of troops completely destroyed a rotation unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), in which they made a fatal mistake.
