The analytical material from ISW notes that the occupation forces of the aggressor country in early autumn, they stepped up their offensive in the western part of Donetsk Oblast. Today, the invaders are trying to encircle the city of Kurakhovo from several sides, NBN reports.
Experts write that the occupation of Ugledar in October allowed Putin's army to use this city to conduct further offensive operations to the north and northwest of it. Over the past month, the “liberators” of this settlement have carried out a series of successful infantry and mechanized attacks.
Earlier, the Institute for the Study of War wrote that the Russian Armed Forces would not be able to use Ugledar for further offensive operations in the west of Donetsk, but now they admit that their assessment was incorrect.
A report by American analysts says that the invaders have now directed their efforts to straightening the front line and eliminating the Ukrainian salient in the west of the region.
As reported, the military movement “Atesh” stated that the enemy is training foreign mercenaries at a training ground near the temporarily captured Sevastopol.
