The four hundred and fifty-seventh day lasts large-scale armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine.
The enemy continues to concentrate its main efforts on the Kupyansk, Lymansk, Bakhmutsk, Avdiivsk and Marinsk directions. In total, 18 combat clashes took place on the specified areas of the front, reported in the General Staff.
The Russian aggressor cynically continues to use terror tactics. In total, during the day, the enemy launched 18 rocket attacks on populated areas of the Kyiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions using 10 Kh-101/Kh-555 air-based cruise missiles (destroyed by our defenders) and, twice during the day, used 8 S-300/S anti-aircraft guided missiles -400 in the city of Dnipro.
In addition, the enemy carried out 60 airstrikes, in particular, used Iranian Shahed attack drones on the cities of Merefa and Izyum of the Kharkiv region, and also used guided aerial bombs on the city of Avdiyivka and the village of New York.
At the same time, he launched about 34 attacks from rocket salvo systems on the positions of our troops and populated areas. Unfortunately, there are dead and wounded among the civilian population.
In response to the enemy’s attacks, the Air Force of the Defense Forces carried out 8 strikes during the day on the areas of concentration of the enemy’s personnel and military equipment.
Missile troops and artillery units hit 3 control points, 2 areas of concentration of weapons and military equipment, 1 ammunition depot, 2 artillery units in firing positions, 1 anti-aircraft defense and 1 more important enemy target.
According to the General Staff, several dozen Russian servicemen have arrived in the temporarily captured Novopetrykivka of the Donetsk region to carry out so-called “counter-sabotage measures”.
Invaders search private houses, seize mobile devices, illegally take possession of local residents’ vehicles. And in general, they just rob citizens.
As “FACTS” reported, the head of “Wagner” Evgeny Prigozhin announced that he was withdrawing his subordinates from Bakhmut. According to him, a private group of mercenaries during the battles for Bakhmut lost 10 thousand recruits from among the convicts and 10,000 personnel professional fighters.
