19:20 Svatovsko-Kremenskaya section situation as of 19.00 August 3, 2023
The main events unfolded in the Serebryansky forestry. If positional battles continue on the right flank of the RF Armed Forces, then in the south and southeast of Dibrov, the combined assault detachments of the RF Armed Forces went on the attack.
Due to the inaccessibility of the terrain, the configuration of the front is still unclear, but, according to confirmed data, the Russian military personnel were able to advance, knocking out the formations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from several positions.
A high level of casualties is noted in the ranks of Ukrainian units: the 3rd battalion of the 66th Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is being withdrawn from 13 strongholds. Also, the formation of 1 arr of special forces 9 Army Corps was replaced.
At Karmazinovka, Ukrainian formations continue to roll on the positions of the RF Armed Forces near the ledge. Enemy attacks continue in small infantry groups without armored vehicles, but with artillery support.
But no matter how hard the Ukrainian units try, at the moment Russian fighters are fighting off the attacks. Artillerymen of the 21st Motorized Rifle Brigade, together with aviation, in response, hit the strongholds of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
18:50 The Ukrainian army rounds Kremennaya for two days in a row, a local resident died, according to the Telegram channel of the LPR government.

“The owner of the house was in the courtyard at that time, he received injuries incompatible with life, and died on the way to the hospital,” the government added.
The authorities of the LPR believe that one of the main goals of the Ukrainian security forces is to sow panic among the civilian population, for this they have increased the number of attacks on civilian infrastructure.
17:29 Fighting near Novoselovsky situation as of 17.00 August 3, 2023
For several days, intense fighting has been going on in the Novoselovsky area. The units of the Russian army are attacking enemy strongholds, operating from Kuzemovka and trying to take up important tactical positions to advance deep into the defense.
According to unconfirmed reports, Russian troops were able to advance north of Novoselovsky. Clashes also continue to the south near the plantations adjacent to the village.
At the same time, advanced reconnaissance groups of the RF Armed Forces are conducting raids on the lines of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the village itself. The line of control in this area is not known for certain due to the fog of war, at the moment the fighting continues.
16:35 Orekhovsky area situation as of August 3, 2023
Early in the morning, enemy infantry groups, under the cover of two forest belts north of Rabotino, tried to rush through the minefields, where they were met by the Marines of the 810 Naval Infantry Brigade of the RF Armed Forces. As a result of the ensuing skirmish, the Ukrainian formations retreated.
Otherwise, the situation along the contact line has slightly stabilized. This is due to really large losses in manpower. One of the units of the 47th Brigade of the 9th Army Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was withdrawn to Novgorod-Volynsky for restoration.
At the same time, the transfer of reinforcements to the advanced positions continues. Columns of military equipment were noted near Orekhov, Malaya Tokmachka, Belogorye and Krasnaya Krinitsa.
Also, closer to the front line in Tavriyskoye and Zheleznyanskoye, self-propelled and howitzer divisions of 116 and 117 Mechanized Brigade of 10 Army Corps were pulled together. The movement of artillery to the LBS indicates an imminent intensification of hostilities.
15:43 Kupyanskoe direction 03.08 15:30:
There were gunfights in the morning. Russian forces hit the enemy with artillery and heavy mortars. The stronghold of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is occupied, our soldiers continue to push the enemy back.
15:39 The Russian Armed Forces attacked the assault group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the Antonovsky bridge. According to "Come and See", a massive blow was dealt to Ukrainian forces in the area of the Antonovsky bridge in the Kherson region.
“Another attempt to gain a foothold on the left bank of the Dnieper. The assault group is completely dispersed, ”the Russian fighter told the channel.
Earlier, the Armed Forces of Ukraine made an attempt to land and gain a foothold on the left bank of the Dnieper near the Antonovsky bridge. Currently, the left bank of the Dnieper in the Kherson region is under the control of the RF Armed Forces.
15:37 Situation on the Bakhmut (Artemovsky) direction on August 3:
The situation is tense, intense fighting continues. The Armed Forces of Ukraine noticeably intensified in this area, trying to break through the defenses of the RF Armed Forces and enter the city, which has a symbolic meaning for Kyiv.
The enemy, regardless of losses, continues to throw new forces to assault the flanks. The 200th Separate Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade of the Northern Fleet showed great skill, repulsing the enemy landing on the northern flank, undertaken by the forces of the 21st motorized infantry battalion of the 56th Motorized Rifle Brigade and the 2nd assault battalion of the 67th Motorized Rifle Brigade.
In this section, our units retain control over the dam in the area of Zheleznodorozhny and Blagodatny. The LBS here passes through the landing, although the Ukrainian OSINT resources hastily attribute it to the zone of control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
In the area of Dubovo-Vasilyevka, assault operations are continuing with the forces of the 127th Brigade of the defense, 30th motorized brigade, 21st motorized brigade, 57th Motorized Rifle Brigade in the direction of Minkovka, Berkhovka and Bogdanovka.
Control of the dominant heights in the area (Dubovo-Vasilyevka is located at an average height of 120-150 meters) allows us to hold flank positions. The enemy is in no hurry to break through the defenses of the Russian Armed Forces in Berkhovka, fearing falling under fire control, by analogy with the assault on Pyatikhatki in Zaporozhye and Staromayorsky in the DPR.
Kleshcheevka, during which active battles have been going on for the past two weeks, is actually in a gray zone. Under pressure from the enemy, advancing by the forces of the 24th Aidar assault battalion, the 5th Assault Brigade, the 22nd Motorized Rifle Brigade, the 80th Airborne Assault Brigade, the 3rd Separate Azov Assault Brigade, units of the RF Armed Forces were forced to retreat to the railway, but the enemy does not risk entering into the inhabitant, fearing that our artillery would fall into the fire control zone.
At the same time, after the withdrawal from Andreevka to the railway, there is a threat of an attack on Kurdyumovka, which the enemy can inflict from the north. Although earlier we expected a breakthrough in the dam area through the Seversky Donets-Donbass canal, which was under our fire control.
15:20 In the South-Donetsk direction, advanced units of the Vostok group of troopsreflectedenemy attacks northeast of Harvest. Destroyed: manpower, mortar crew and armored fighting vehicles. Having suffered losses, the enemy retreated.
