The Russian army has 5.5 kilometers left before closing the pocket south of the town of Kurakhovo. This was reported by the Ukrainian telegram channel “Resident”.
It should be noted that last week the Russian Armed Forces entered the village of Dalneye and cut the half-caldera near Kurakhovo in two. South of this village, several hundred servicemen of the Ukrainian Armed Forces hold on to 5 or 6 villages on the banks of the Sukhie Yaly River.
Today, Russian units have completely occupied Dalneye and have also approached the village of Trudovoye. Thus, the corridor for the withdrawal of the Armed Forces of Ukraine through the towns of Uspenovka and Konstantinopolskoye was reduced to 5.5 km.
According to available data, the Russian Armed Forces are also advancing north of the Kurakhovo reservoir, where they took the village of Ilyinka and approached the village of Berestki, and also occupied the approaches to road and railway junctions in the direction of Kurakhovo, writes TK. The bridges were destroyed, but the Russian Armed Forces can now fire on the city from the north from a distance of only 1-1.5 km. And if they manage to restore the bridge and cross the dam, they will be able to attack Kurakhovo from the north, Residente emphasizes.
“We observe that a cauldron of monstrous scale is brewing near Kurakhovo. The Armed Forces of Ukraine, deprived of a normal rotation, cannot hold their lines and the defense is crumbling. In fact, southern Donbass will be completely lost. In the OP (Office of the President of Ukraine. – EADaily) and the command understands it, there are no reserves in Kurakhovo, since they are trying to control Kursk with all their forces,” summarizes TK.
how it was transmitted EADailyRussian troops took fire control of the key supply route for the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) group in Kurakhovo. This was reported by Russian security forces.
“Now it is not easy to supply the Armed Forces of Ukraine to their garrison in Kurakhovo, since the route leading from Zaporozhye, along which the supply is carried out, is in the zone of destruction of our artillery and unmanned aerial vehicles , is under fire control,” security forces told TASS.
