Defense forces retreat to the north of Kremennoye

Defense forces retreated to the north of Kremennoye, where Russian occupying forces launched an offensive. This information was provided by the analytical group DeepState. According to their data, three weeks ago, enemy plans for an attack on Borova were ignored, and additional firepower for countermeasures was not provided. The third assault brigade managed to withstand the assault, but the occupiers changed their tactical plans.

Russian forces introduce regiments into battle

Russian forces introduced two regiments of the 144th Division into battle to the south of the 3rd Separate Special Forces Brigade and made a successful strike on Makiivka. This occurred in the area of responsibility of the 66th Separate Mechanized Brigade, which is trying to optimize its actions effectively but is facing enemy numerical superiority. The enemy plans to expand its gains and consolidate positions on the western bank of the Zherebets River.

Efforts to destroy enemy offensive capabilities

All of this could have been avoided if the enemy’s offensive capabilities had been destroyed during the preparation for assault operations. It was previously announced that Defense Forces managed to detect the enemy’s heavy flamethrower system «Sunburst» near Kremennoye. Three strike drones successfully attacked this target, and the system was destroyed. This is already the 23rd destroyed TOS system, as confirmed by independent OSINT analysts.
