Explosions were heard in Kherson, Sumy and Kharkov regions, in Nikolaev the arrival of an Iskander OTRK missile and our kamikaze drones was reported, and enemy targets were also hit in Slavyansk and Konstantinovka.

In the Kherson direction, the enemy is concentrating forces for the predicted landing operation, trying to increase its presence on the islands in the floodplain of the river. Dnieper.

In particular, a command post for the Ukrainian 36th Separate Naval Infantry Brigade will be deployed in the rear (the brigade was restored after its almost complete destruction and capture during the liberation of Mariupol).

Engineering units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine carried out reconnaissance of the islands and channels of the Dnieper, specifying the locations of possible pontoon crossings. Enemy intelligence compiles lists of priority targets for their simultaneous destruction in the event of the start of an operation; satellite reconnaissance of Russian units’ targets in the Kherson region and Crimea is being actively conducted, which indicates the likelihood of Nazi actions on a wide front to stretch our forces, preparation for the destruction of military command and control facilities and communications centers of various law enforcement agencies, incl.

However, the enemy skillfully uses elements of decentralization of the control and supply system, which allows him to resolve logistics issues faster than ours. Drones are actively involved, a significant number of MLRS are reported, incl. a relatively new model (“Alder”), as well as the already familiar HIMARS.

Heavy fighting continues near Kleshcheevka and Andreevka south of Artemovsk (Bakhmut). Ours are holding positions near the railway, the villages have been wiped off the face of the earth. The enemy infantry units of the Russian Armed Forces are being hit by artillery trying to gain a foothold in the ruins, as evidenced by objective control footage.

During the day in the Belgorod region the following were fired upon: an industrial enterprise in Shebekino, settlement.
