Fighters of the Achilles Battalion showed how they destroy 17 units of Russian equipment near Kruglyakivka.


In eastern Ukraine, Russian occupiers attempted to cut the Ukrainian military's bridgehead, but were repelled by the "Achilles" battalion of the 92nd Separate Mechanized Brigade. The adversary lost 17 units of armored vehicles and 47 personnel.
In the direction of the Oskil River crossing, Russian forces were breaking through in the area of the settlement Sienkiv. The enemy group managed to enter the village and secure the northern outskirts. However, the Defense Forces remain confident in holding back the enemy's pressure, although the weather plays both in their favor and against them.
Continuation of the aggressor's attacks
Russian forces ceased their advance near Chasovy Yar but continue to attack in this area. Additionally, they attempt to bypass the town of Kurakhove. In response, Ukraine launched an attack on Russia through a weakly protected border section, allowing it to quickly control more territory than Russia did in almost a year of advances in eastern Ukraine.
Analysts note that in the Kursk region, Russian forces are limited in advancement due to poor weather conditions, but they use small infantry groups for attacks.
