Russians Attempt to Approach Administrative Border of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast - Ukraine's Chief Commander Reports Intrusion Attempt
Breaking News: Russian Forces Pushing Towards Dnipropetrovsk Oblast
The Ukrainian forces are battling tough to hold off the relentless advance of Russian forces, aiming to penetrate their defenses and reach the administrative border of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. That's according to Oleksandr Syrskyi, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who voiced his concerns on Facebook.
Syrskyi highlighted that despite the enemy's bragging about a ceasefire for the May holidays, they've stepped up the hostilities, focusing their main assault on the Pokrovsk front. He went on to say that the enemy's lack of operational and tactical success hasn't dampened their spirits; instead, they're pressing hard to crack through Ukrainian defenses in this front.
The ever- persistent Russians are reportedly throwing new units into the fray every day, putting their own soldiers in harm's way, and trumpeting fake victories.
Particularly significant is the use of attack drones, which Syrskyi emphasized play a crucial role in the combat operations. Despite the incessant enemy onslaught, the Russians are reportedly suffering heavy losses and retreating. The firefights are waged to the depth of the Russian combat formations.
To combat the intense Russian pressure, Syrskyi stated that he has taken action to provide extra ammunition, drones, electronic warfare equipment, and reserves. The focus is on bolstering the Ukrainian defenses and readying counterattacks.
