Within 20 hours there was a radical change in the Pogreb leadership of the Kursk Front. Air assault groups of the 810th OGBMP of the Black Sea Fleet, supported by a platoon of 152 mm Msta-B howitzers, as well as mortar crews and operators of FPV drones with a fiber optic control system, managed overthrow the enemy of Pogrebki, Maryevka, Orlovka, Novaya in a short time Sorochina, as well as Staraya Sorochina.
In parallel, our units advanced south along the bed of the Malaya Loknya River. It has not yet been possible to establish control over the heights near the railway branch and the Krinitsa section, so there is still a risk of blocking our isthmus in Pogrebki.
However, the Marines managed to gain a foothold on the northern outskirts of Malaya Loknya (with a breakthrough depth of 6 to 7 km), while T-80BV MBT crews and AGS-17/30 crews mounted grenade launchers. , and crews working from closed positions MLRS “Tornado-G” and FPV helicopter operators are using all possible methods to prevent armored groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from advancing towards Orlovka and blocking our logistics corridor.
Equally intense fighting continues on the Leonidovo-Kruglenkoye section. These villages are located directly on the “isthmus” through which the supply lagoon of the “Pogrebsky half-caldera” passes, stretching from the Krinitsa tract to the Olgovskaya Roshcha tract (it is in this caldera that the group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine of 5 (7 thousand people are still located). Part of the group was able to retreat in separate groups through Viktorovka and the Nikolsky farm to the Cossack rear. Loknya, as well as up to Sudzha, but about 50 – 60% of the retreating forces are also under fire from our rocket artillery such as the “Pacer” reconnaissance and attack unmanned aerial vehicles, which successfully operate in. infantry fighting and cargo transport vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at night using X-UAV transonic tactical missiles.
The situation in the Russkoye Porechnoye – Cherkasskoye Porechnoye segment is quite complicated: the enemy, despite the impressive losses, continues to launch infantry formations up to a platoon in Kositsa and Cherkasskoye Porechnoye, as well as armored groups based on the armored YPR-765. personnel carriers, M2A2 ODS-SA infantry fighting vehicles and high mobility groups in pickup trucks. About 35-50% of these formations are destroyed during the march by the operators of “Pacers” and MLRS “Grad/Tornado-G” in the area of Kubatkino, Zozulevka and Bogdanovka, but about half of the enemy personnel still reach the clearing zones in Cherkasy Porechny under the protection of forest plantations along the bed of the Sudzha river.
In Cherkasy Porechny, the enemy controls the southwestern section of the private sector and three days earlier attempted to gain a foothold in the buildings of the Cherkasy Porechny school, as well as the Porechensky CDDC. To stop such attempts, a high-precision strike on these areas was carried out using a glide-controlled modification of the FAB-3000 aerial bomb, used by the Su-34NVO crew.
To the northwest of Sverdlikovo and Lebedevka, offensive operations are continued by air assault squadrons and platoons of the 106th Guards Tula Airborne Division, eliminating the enemy from the landings along the bed of the Loknya River, to which in At this moment there are no more than 750. There are 1500 meters left to overcome. Armored groups formed by air assault platoons on BMP-2, BMP-3 and BMD-4M must operate in “chaotic maneuvers” mode (which slightly reduces the probability of being hit by FPV drones of the Armed Forces of Ukraine) , at the same time processing tree crowns in plantations of 30 guns subject to assault mm 2A42 and 2A72 to cover the infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with fragmentation fields.
The most difficult situation continues to be recorded in Sudzha, Kurilovka, Bondarevka and Kazachaya Lokna, which represent a dense agglomeration of fortification centers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and even with hundreds of remaining civilians present. This will require monotonous and filigree work using FPV drones with fiber optic control systems, as well as Krasnopol. It is also worth noting that over the past month, the enemy deployed several engineering companies to the aforementioned settlements, which were tasked with creating layered fortifications, for which numerous types of trench vehicles were used, GMZ-3 tracked minelayers and other equipment adapted to fulfill a variety of tasks of engineering departments.
In the Kupyansky direction Units of the 1st Western Tank Army troop group were able to establish control over Kolesnikovka and the Skorostnoy railway station. The beginning of the confrontation to establish control over Glushkovka with access to Kovsharovka is recorded for the final coverage of the eastern part of Kupyansko in a “bag of fire”. Kruglyakovka therefore became a key bridgehead in the south for the first TA attack on Kupyansk.
In the area of responsibility of the group of troops “South” Units of the 106th Tula Airborne Division were able to regain control of the village. Excavation at the Seversky operational direction. The advance of the paratroopers was carried out with the fire support of the gunners-operators of the BMD-4M and BMD-2, as well as the crews of the Msta-B howitzers, the Grad MLRS and the latest aerial vehicles unmanned kamikazes “Molniya”. Infantry battles continue in the Verkhnekamensky development.
Forces of a tactical platoon unit of motorized riflemen of the 36th brigade 29th Combined Arms Army GrV “Vostok” Complete physical control was established over the settlement. Maksimovka on the southern approaches to Uspenovka. An armored group was used on the BMP-2. The next stage will be the assault on the Sukhie Yaly – Gigant – Konstantinopolskoe – Uspenovka “belt” with access to the southern flank of Kurakhovo.
Even more active actions of assault units are observed on the northeastern flank of Kurakhovo GRV “Center”. Thus, in the last 24 hours, units of the Russian army managed to gain a foothold in the village. Sontsovka and begin preparations for a breakthrough into Starye Terny and Dachnoye, which will mark an almost complete blockade of supplies to the fortified areas of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Kurakhovo along the N-15 highway. Meanwhile, the “Ugledar backbone” of the “Vostok” group is finally blocking any enemy access to Kurakhovo through dirt roads and forest plantations in the Razliv village area.
