13 Aug: Weak Spot. Ukrainians ADVANCE ON MULTIPLE AXES FOR 7 km | Ukraine War Update

Day 536: 13 Aug Ukrainians FOUND WEAK SPOTS | 1st Line of Defense Collapse too Quickly | Ukraine War Update The Ukrainian battlefield has turned into a stalemate for the Russians, especially in the Donbass region, from Zaporizhia to Mariupol, Berdyansk, Melitopol and even Kherson. On the fronts where the defense lines of the Russian troops were weakened in such an infernal area, normally the Ukrainian forces greatly increased their offensive operations. The 3 critical front lines, where the Ukrainian Armed Forces have increased their military operations, are currently considered as regions where the fate of the war will be determined and where the Russians may even have the possibility of losing this war. The first of these 3 critical front lines is the city of Vuhledar, one of the surprise settlements that even the Russians did not expect. Clashes in this city have increased at a record level in recent days. Most recently, Ukrainian forces broke through the Russian defenses on the northern outskirts of the village of Mykilske, southeast of Vuhledar. The Russians were driven back to the summer area and driven from their positions north of the village of Solodke, east of Vuhledar. In addition, the Ukrainian army is targeting Russian army positions in the direction of Vuhledar, a frontline town in the Donetsk region, with heavy artillery, in the midst of a long-awaited counteroffensive. Sergeant Evgeniy, in charge of the motorized howitzer in the 72nd Mechanized Brigade of the Ukrainian army, reported that the offensive operations continue at full speed. Sergeant Evgeniy added that the Gvozdika units provide intelligence on the positions of Russian soldiers and military equipment at the points they have determined. In addition, Evgeniy emphasized that the soldiers of his team are trained and prepared, although they have been fighting the Russian army for a long time, and that this will continue due to the patriotism of the soldiers. First Lieutenant Sergey, who did not want his surname to be disclosed, stated that they used artillery compass to locate the Russian targets in Vuhledar and opened fire. Sergey also added that in cases where the targets of the Russians could not be hit, new information was given about the position, then he informed his commander and continued artillery fire. Explaining that the number of targets they hit changes daily, the Ukrainian first lieutenant said that the Russian defense line is very close to collapse in Vuhledar. Ukrainian troops in this area will probably be the first line of defense of the Russians, which will soon be crossed by Ukrainian troops. In Vuhledar, the initiative for the moment is in the Ukrainian army, which forced the Russians to use their reserves. The Shakhtarsk direction near Vuhledar, where clashes have escalated recently, is also promising for the Ukrainian army. But the first front where the Russians are likely to lose the war seems to be Vuhledar. The second front line where the fate of the war will be redrawn is the Orikhiv settlement in the Zaporizhia region. Vasylivka to the west of this settlement and Robotyne to the south. Both settlements witnessed clashes and military developments that would make the Russians lose the war. Most recently, under the leadership of the 47th brigade of the Ukrainian army, an advance was made south of Orikhiv, near the Zaporizhzia Nuclear Power Plant. In addition, Ukrainian forces were able to break through the Russian lines near the village of Robotyne, 6 miles south of Orikhiv and about 80 miles north of Melitopol. These advances reflect the benefits of the heavy offensive tactical change that Ukraine launched in the midst of its counteroffensive. In line with this tactic, Ukrainian troops sent smaller dismounted infantry units, usually no more than 20 soldiers, to advance slowly and hesitantly, holding back armor at Robotyne and other critical lines of Orikhiv. This situation severely eroded the Russian defenses across Orikhiv. Therefore, the Ukrainian advance in Orikhiv was seriously endangered for the Russians, both on the Kherson direction and on the Zaporizhia front lines. Because Orikhiv acts as a bridge between the two regions. For this reason, one of the front lines that will make the Russian troops lose the war lately is the Orikhiv settlement. The last Ukrainian front line, which brought the Russian troops to a point where they almost lost this war, is the Velyka Novosilka region in Zaporizhia Oblast. Most recently, Ukrainian forces liberated the village of Staromaiorske, very close to Urozhaine, south of Velyka Novosilka. The Ukrainian army holds the initiative in these two settlements. #russia #Ukraine #UkraineWar #russiaukrainewar #news #russiaukrainenews #War society, politics, knowledge, military, international relations
