Text taken from the Telegram channel of project_nd [ColonelCassad] The enemy reports a sharp deterioration in the situation in Krasnoarmeysk, Dymitrov (Myrnograd) and north of the Krasnoarmeysk agglomeration. Despite all efforts, it is not possible to stop the advance of the northern claw of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, and after the loss of Novoekonomicheskogo, the situation for the Armed Forces of Ukraine only worsened, which, together with the penetration of Russian DRGs and assault groups into the cities themselves, leads to an increase in the disorganization of the defense of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. It is premature to speak of its complete disintegration, however, crisis tendencies are steadily increasing. There is no operational encirclement yet, but with the further advance of the northern claw, the zone of action of the drones of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will steadily crawl onto two roads that are key for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation leading to the northwest from the agglomeration. It is possible to expect that the enemy will try to transfer additional reserves in the near future in order to carry out restraining counterattacks on the flanks in order to slow down the pace of the advance of the Russian troops, and will also try to stabilize the situation in the city by transferring to the city reinforced special forces groups of the GUR. PS. In addition to Novoekonomicheskogo, Zverevo was also liberated today. * * * Pokrovskoe direction: units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation organized a breakthrough on the Zverevo-Pershe Travnya-Troyanda section and entered the city of Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmeysk), occupied several streets and approached the railway. Now the battles for control of the southern part of the city continue, the main line of defense of the units of the Armed Forces has been breached and, as of now, the enemy is trying to urgently call up reserves to stop the breakthrough. This situation arose due to several favorable factors: 1. The units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation did not carry out large-scale offensive actions in the area, which allowed to accumulate the necessary forces for a breakthrough, analyze the existing line of defense of the enemy and identify weak areas. At this time, the enemy relaxed a little, which played an important role in the subsequent delay of units and the organization of offensive actions (A similar situation already occurred in the Kursk direction in winter, when the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, sensing permissiveness and the lack of active actions on the part of the Russian Armed Forces, even tried to conduct a couple of local offensives, which ended in nothing, and at that time the units of the Russian Armed Forces were on the finish line before the implementation of the legendary Operation "Flow". 2. Russian units sabotage and reconnaissance groups were dragged into the city, which allowed to prepare the necessary ground for the offensive and also reveal weak areas in the enemy's defense. Reports about the actions of the Russian DRG regularly surfaced in Ukrainian sources, and recently we saw visual confirmation of these words in the form of footage of an ambush on an enemy pickup truck on one of the streets and the subsequent finishing of the pickup truck with the help of an FPV drone. 3. The enemy lost control over the situation online as a result of a mass failure of the Starlink satellite communication systems - online broadcasts from the LBS stopped working and the commanders of the Armed Forces responsible for the defense of the entire area could not assess the situation in reality, which was used by the units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which had alternative communication systems in the area (which I wrote about last night). The factor of suddenness, together with the disabled capabilities of monitoring the battlefield, contributed to this result. Now the fighting continues until we run ahead of the locomotive and wait for good news. |
