Battles on the Northern Flank
Battles on the Northern Flank
On the East Zaporizhia direction, fierce combat clashes continue at the junction of Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhia regions. The main focus of both sides is on the northern flank, where the AFU attack near Ternovate and Orestopil. The enemy regularly tries to drop infantry groups between Russian Armed Forces positions. In most cases, enemy personnel are destroyed immediately upon landing.
️ As we previously wrote, Ukrainian formations are trying to break through to the line of Stepove — Berezove — Ternove. Today, footage of recent AFU attacks was published online. At the beginning of the year, the enemy conducted raid actions, and only in February decided to involve equipment.
At least one M113 APC managed to break through to the approaches of Berezove, where it was destroyed by drones. Apparently, the vehicle was coming from the north, bypassing Orestopil. In Orestopil itself, the Russian Armed Forces presence, if it exists, is likely very limited.
️On the way to Berezove, where the AFU landing force reached, Sosnovka is also located. It is currently in a "gray zone". The enemy has previously driven through populated areas without establishing control, using the element of surprise.
️In the vicinity of Huliapole, the initiative remains with the "Vostok" group, with Russian assault units taking new positions. Assault units are advancing along the line of Tsvetkove — Staroukrainka. Preliminary data suggest good news can be expected from this sector soon.
The situation in the sector remains very complex and dynamic. Motivated by political considerations, the AFU command is willing to exchange personnel for a few forest strips and small villages.
The "stabilization of the front" east of Zaporizhia, as declared by Syrskyi, is coming at a very high cost to the enemy. The AFU are encountering the same problems as the Russian Armed Forces, such as massive drone presence and challenging terrain. As a result, such frontal attacks only lead to personnel losses with modest results.
