Is there a possibility of an attack by the Russian army on Kharkiv?
Currently, the enemy is really withdrawing its main reserves near the village of Synkivka, where it is moving the "Storm-Z", "Storm-V" units. The Russians are also trying to put pressure near Siversky, says OSTG "Khortytsia" speaker Illia Yevlash.
That is, the enemy is trying to press from several directions at once, trying to find a weak gap in our defense to develop an offensive. The enemy actively uses aviation, artillery, UAVs. The enemy is suffering heavy losses every day. Every third company in their battalions is assault.
According to Illia Yevlash, mighty fortifications have been installed in Kupiansk's direction.
Since the end of summer, powerful engineering works, fortifications, rows of anti-tank ditches were built, and "dragon's teeth" were installed in this direction, which are fastened together with iron cables. There is powerful mining, both with anti-personnel mines and anti-tank mines, the OSTG "Khortytsia" speaker said.
There are many engineering barriers with the arrangement of support points and the installation of heavy concrete defensive structures.
Our task, in conditions of ammunition shortage, is to gain a foothold and occupy the most powerful lines and inflict irreparable losses on the enemy. We are currently on the defensive, and our task is to wear down the enemy's offensive potential. The intensity of the fighting is crazy, and now it is reaching its peak, — explained the OSTG "Khortytsia" speaker.
