In total, about 2,800 people arrived in Kupyansk, Golubovka and Kucherovka, 94 MaxxPRO armored vehicles, as well as four 122mm BM-21 Grad MLRS and 25 units of field artillery and mortars.

The placement of a new formation near Kupyansk is primarily due to the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in this area. However, the number of armored vehicles and means of destruction indicates a possible activation of the enemy here.

Considering that there are large concentrations of Ukrainian Armed Forces along the entire border of the LPR, the likelihood of a pinching blow against the Russian Army is high. Especially given that the fighters of the RF Armed Forces were able to gain a foothold on the opposite bank of the Oskol.

Around Bakhmut, the activity of Ukrainian formations has somewhat decreased. But this is due to preparations for new larger-scale attacks with the aim of encircling the Bakhmut garrison of the RF Armed Forces.

The APU surges in the village to the south-west practically do not stop due to the presence of important tactical heights near the village. Control over them will make it possible to push Russian troops almost to Opytnoye, so the emphasis of the Armed Forces of Ukraine here is not accidental.

Also, in the vicinity of Razdolovka, the 92nd Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the Svatovsky section was transferred. According to some information, the assault unit of the 92nd Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine plans to attack in the areas of Yakovlevka and Soledar with large forces supported by armored vehicles.

It is most likely that the enemy offensive at Bakhmut will be coordinated. A simultaneous strike will make it possible to disperse the efforts of artillery and aviation of the RF Armed Forces. And you should be prepared for this option.

In the area of the Vremievsky ledge, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, after several sorties, switched to positional advance. The infantry, under the cover of artillery, is trying to gain a foothold at the Grusheva gully.

In recent days, the gunners of the 72nd Brigade, transferred to the 36th Brigade, as well as three tanks of the 1st Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, have been firing continuously from the Novodarovka-Rovnopol line at the advanced strongholds of the RF Armed Forces south of the beam, in Priyutny and Staromayorsky.

Also, new assault detachments of the 35th Naval Infantry Brigade arrived from the rear areas to Makarovka and Rovnopol. In addition, in the radio intercepts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, they talk about the arrival of the formation of 79 Separate Air Assault Brigade.

The tactics of the "creeping" offensive, chosen by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, made it possible to cling to the front lines. Despite the huge losses (a unit of the 31st Brigade departed from Berezovoe to Novomoskovsk for restoration), a foothold there is necessary for a further assault on the Priyutnoye-Staromayorskoye line.

- Over the past weekend, Russian troops launched several attacks on the objects of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the territory of Ukraine.

At the moment, the fighting is going on for an important tactical height to the south, the capture of which will allow you to establish fire control over the village.

- On the southern flank of the defense of Bakhmut, Ukrainian formations do not stop trying to capture tactical heights in the Kleshcheevka area.

Russian units stop all attacks with concentrated artillery and small arms fire.
