The recent massive attack of the Russian troops on Siverskoye directly testify about the successes the aggressor has more effective assaults. However, at the same time, the Russian army is still far from resuming maneuver on the battlefield.
This is reported by RBC-Ukraine in a letter to the American Institute of Warfare (ISW).
Behind the data Ukrainian According to the military review of Yuri Butusov, the 14th anniversary of the Russian army carried out a three-pronged mechanized attack on Pivnich, leaving the town of Siversk near the Donetsk region with over 400 casualties. osib, up to 30 armored vehicles, 13 bags and 60 motorcycles.
The geolocation footage published on the 15th shows that the Russians pushed forward even before the hour of the mechanized attack with forces of approximately a company on the day before Vesyoly (formerly Siversk), which, undoubtedly, was part of more large-scale attack.
Butusov reported that the Russian troops were able to penetrate into several Ukrainian defense positions and destroy the enemy, but the movement of drones and artillery of the ZSU, as well as neighbor, finally defeated the enemy's attack.
Based on the words of the observer, the Russian forces are unlikely to penetrate two or three kilometers into the Ukrainian defense. At the same time, one of the Russian military bloggers confirmed that the Russian army had pushed two kilometers inland from the Zolotarivka direction (at the exit from Siverska).
ISW cannot confirm at the moment the step of the Russian troops advancing under the hourly assault. The department informed that additional video recordings of the Russian assault are likely to be released in the coming days.
“Riverman of the Operational-Tactical Group “Lugansk” Anastasia Bobovnikova 14th stated that the Russian armies captured over 100 pieces of equipment during the recent attack on the Siverskoe direct. For this information, 13 In this area, 55 combat operations took place, which confirms the increased intensity of combat operations on this part of the front line,” says the source.
Efficiency through personnel changes
The Institute of Warfare also noted that the recent assault on the Siverska river was much larger-scale and more beneficial, but there were no more forward attacks on the Siverskoye directly.
Ukrainian military observer Yuriy Butusov stated that the Russians were carefully preparing for this assault. He noted that the military intelligently coordinated the interaction between the assault sub-units and the force, electronic warfare (EW) and operations with pilotless pilots – all elements of command and control, with which the Russian military command historically cannot effectively fight back.
The ISW does not include that the more coordinated assault of the Russians on Siversk is undoubtedly the result of a recent change in command in this area.
The Institute guessed that on the beginning of leaf fall in 2024 The Russians carried out a nearby mechanized attack on the descent from Siverska near Bilogorivka due to the excessive claims of success in this area. The result of this was the decision of the military command to arrest and arrest several brigade commanders at the warehouse of the 3rd Zagalnovian Army (the largest number of the 2nd Army Corps (AK) of the “Lugansk People’s Republic” (“LPR”).
“The Russian insider, who previously correctly transmitted changes to the commanded army of the Russian Federation, the 13th informed about the recent dismissal of the commander of the 3rd AK, Major General Dmitry Ovcharov. However, the 15th is one of the Russians military bloggers blocked this information. In his words, Major General Oleksiy Kolesnikov was the remaining commander of the 3rd AK and recently took over a new, undeclared position,” says ISW.
