The concentration of weapons, especially for fighting our artillery, as well as the evacuation of the civilian population from the Kupyansky district, suggests that the Armed Forces of Ukraine may try to counterattack in this direction. And the current measures are preparation for the offensive.

After the withdrawal of Russian troops from Harvest, the village moved into the gray zone. Confident control of the enemy is maintained only on the northern outskirts, in the south the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to dig in, but they are being hit by artillery and aircraft.

Nevertheless, two DRGs from the 35th and 37th Infantry regiments, supported by artillery using cluster munitions, attacked the positions of the Russian Armed Forces near Zavitne Bazhenya, but the attack was repulsed. At the same time, a Ukrainian R18 drone was operating in the air.

Judging by the movements of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the offensive in the Vremievsky sector will resume soon. And there can be several directions of impact in this direction. Assault groups of 128 mod trot arrived in Staromayorskoe along with anti-tank systems and machine guns.

Also, units of the 1st Brigade, including large-caliber mortars, were moved to Urozhaynoye, formations of the 31st Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine appeared on the Priyutnoye site.

Considering the foregoing, an enemy offensive should be expected immediately in at least three directions: Priyutnoye, Staromlinovka and Novodonetskoye (artillerymen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine increased the intensity of fire with cluster rounds along the line).

And if we take into account the introduction of the Marun tactical group in the Orekhovsky sector, an attempt to break through to the Sea of Azov can begin as soon as possible.

Ukrainian forces are suffering colossal losses.

Soldiers of the Vostok battalion report on the situation on the Vremievsky ledge at the junction of Zaporozhye and the DPR.

“Yesterday both sides used all their resources – today they are replenishing. Involuntarily there was a brief respite. Sympathy does not come to visit on the battlefield, but seeing how much damage the enemy is taking in Urozhaynoye, we experienced feelings that are difficult to describe. We lacked infantry and equipment, but we had enough means of destruction to grind up a significant part of what the enemy threw at the capture of the village. Urozhaynoye resembled a meat grinder, which included living people, and minced meat came out.

The number of destroyed and damaged equipment was not calculated in units. A very specific residue remained: We lost Urozhayne, and at the same time caused such damage that part of our consciousness refuses to understand the motives of the Ukrainian command. So only those who hate them more than ours can drive their own to slaughter.

South of Orekhovo, the consolidated units of the 46th detachment, 118th detachment and 15th detachment of the NGU continue their attacks near Rabotino. To the east of the village, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to gain a foothold in strongholds a few kilometers away, hiding behind landings.

Also, attempts by the DRG of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to enter Rabotino itself became more and more frequent. On the northeastern outskirts, Ukrainian detachments, under cover of fire with cluster munitions, are rolling into the village. Forest belts adjoin the settlement, and the enemy moves along them.

Now the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to develop the offensive further. Additional forces of their 10 Army Corpss, as well as the Marun tactical group, were pulled to Malaya Tokmachka, the paratroopers of the 82nd Airborne Brigade of which had already fallen into a meat grinder near the village.

Also, new Starlink terminals have been deployed in Malaya Tokmachka, and training and coordination of assault units continues at the training ground in Upper Tersa, which are likely to go into battle in the event of at least some success at Rabotino.

Judging by the wedging of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the east of the village, the Ukrainian command wants to take Rabotino into a semi-encirclement and strike with a mechanized fist in the direction of Tokmak. However, the appearance of the Marun TGr at this stage makes one think that the enemy’s plans had to be adjusted due to losses of 118 Separate Mechanazied Brigade.

In order to restore the lost positions in the Kupyansk direction, the enemy during the day carried out five counterattacks by units of the 14th Separate Mechanized Brigade and the 95th Separate Air Assault Brigade against our positions in the area of the village of Sin'kovka, the Man'kovka tract and the forest of Usy.

All counterattacks were thwarted by inflicting preemptive fire damage by the artillery of the group. Enemy losses amounted to an infantry platoon.

In the defense zone of the 1st Tank Army, the enemy assault groups of the 44th Separate Mechanized Brigade attacked our positions twice in the vicinity of the Novoselovskoye settlement. The advance of the enemy was opened in a timely manner, the fire of the 152mm towed howitzers "Gyatsint-B" and 152mm self-propelled artillery mounts "Msta-S" inflicted a fire defeat, the attacks were repelled, destroyed to a platoon of manpower.

The crews of Ka-52 and Mi-35 attack helicopters of the Zapad grouping of forces delivered twelve air strikes against accumulations of manpower and firepower of units of the 14th, 32nd separate mechanized brigades and territorial defense units in the area of the settlements of Sin'kovka, Stelmahovka and Kislovka.

This is the first recorded defeat of the American armored personnel carriers at the front after their transfer to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to some reports, the Strykers were supplied to the 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade of the Airborne Forces of Ukraine.

The 82nd Airborne Brigade itself is part of the so-called Maroon tactical group, which also includes the 46th Separate Airmobile and 71st Jaeger Brigades, as well as 132nd Reconnaissance Battalion. Until that moment, only the 4th battalion of the 46th Separate Airmobile Brigade was involved in the battles.

Also on the footage published by the Archangel of the Spetsnaz, you can see the German infantry fighting vehicle Marder, which came under attack east of Rabotino, where in recent days the Armed Forces of Ukraine have been storming strongholds and trying to gain a foothold.

Coordinates: 47.456537768597656, 35.86561988467449

"Marders" are also in service with units of 82 Separate Air Assault Brigade. The appearance of armored vehicles of these types indirectly confirms the fact of a more massive introduction of the Marun TGr into battle. Initially, this formation was planned to be used by the second wave in the Pologovsky area. And their involvement in Rabotino now does not come from a good life.

n.p. Rabotino - during the night, the enemy again went on the assault after processing our positions with cluster munitions, but was stopped and destroyed.

At night, the Marder and Leopard infantry fighting vehicles were burned, judging by the radio interceptions at night, the enemy was doing poorly, a large number of those killed (up to 70 people).
