A little later, after regrouping, the Russian assault detachments launched a counterattack and recaptured about 150 meters from the forest plantation. At the moment, the fighting continues.

Deputy Head of the National Guard for the DPR on the preparation of the enemy offensive on the Zaporozhye Front:
“It must be admitted that the recent events have qualitatively diverted the attention of everyone from the war, but meanwhile the enemy is not at all going to sit at the TV and watch what is happening in Russia - he is preparing for another attempt to deeply break through our defenses.
According to the results of the analysis of all incoming data in the Orekhovo-Polozhsky direction, he concentrated up to forty battalions, pursuing the goal of rushing along the Orekhov-Tokmak vector.
Understanding our capabilities to deliver missile and bomb strikes against clusters, he will most likely continue the tactics of a creeping offensive with limited forces until he realizes that favorable conditions have been created for the deployment of the main reserves intended for a subsequent throw deep into our territories.
It is possible that a simultaneous attack will be made in the direction of Energodar with the aim of capturing the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. Here one should expect the most unpleasant surprises - the Kakhovka reservoir is a witness to this.
