The enemy is currently concentrating its assaults on the right flank in the area of Klishchiyivka and Andriivka. We can say that there were about 15 attempts of assault over the last day. I'm not talking about artillery, airstrikes and UAVs... However, they have no success so far," the military said.

Borodin also emphasized that the Ukrainian army has a much better position than the Kremlin's war criminals.
Our defensive positions are much better. The enemy is hitting us pretty hard with artillery, UAVs and airstrikes . At some point, when they see possibility, thinking that we are tired, they send waves of infantry. The infantry mostly fails to achieve anything and goes back - it all repeats. Sometimes, when the infantry comes closer, we have to engage in very heavy firefights at the level of 50-100 metres, but this but this rarely happens. Most of the time, they don't get that close. And this is repeated all the time. It can be called a bit of a positional war of attrition," the soldier explains.
