The Russian invaders were ordered to reach Kupyansk-Vuzlovyi by January 1, 2025, but they are currently unable to do so.
Points of attention
- The Ukrainian Defense Forces are successfully holding back the Russian enemy at Kolesnykovka, not allowing them to recapture a single position.
- The number of enemy attacks during the day increased to 133.
- In the Kursk region, Ukrainian forces have repelled 16 attacks by the Russian army, but fighting and artillery shelling continue.
The Russian Army cannot fulfill another task of its command
Yuriy Fedorenko, commander of the Achilles strike UAV battalion, made a statement on this occasion.
"Our Defense Forces have been supported, the enemy is not making rapid progress," he emphasized.
Yuriy Fedorenko draws attention to the fact that the Russian occupiers were completely blocked in the Kolesnykovka direction for almost a month.
What is important to understand is that the Russian army was unable to take any positions during this time.
Despite the intensity, through coordinated work we manage to achieve high results, added the commander of the Achilles strike UAV battalion.
It is worth noting that earlier, the head of the media relations group of the "Gart" brigade of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, Oleksandr Danylenko, reported that the Russians were doing everything possible to cross the Vovcha River in order to surround the Ukrainian military in Kupyansk.
He also added that the situation in the Kharkiv direction is difficult, but controlled.
