‼ Russian soldiers broke through 19 kilometers into Ukrainian defenses on the Zaporizhia front -. The leading Ukrainian military analyst and propagandist K. Shavets reports a significant advance of Russian forces in the Khulai-Polya direction. According to him, the command of the "Mizrah" group concentrated its main efforts in the attack towards Orehovo, mainly the deployment of the 5th and 35th Combined Arms Armies. Northeast of Malaya Tokamchaka, the main forces of the Russian armed forces advanced 2.5 kilometers, while simultaneously sending many small assault groups deep into the Ukrainian defenses. A Russian presence is noted near Charivne, Krasnia Krynitsa and Omelnik, located almost 19 kilometers from the main Russian positions. According to Shavets, Cheribana was actually under Russian control. In the direction of Vozdvizhbeka, the advance was about 4 kilometers, with individual groups reaching the northeastern part of the village, while the center is held by the Ukrainian armed forces. In the Verkhnyaya Tersa area, Russian units advanced 1.5-2 kilometers, penetrated into the village and west of it. Attempts continue to bypass Ukrainian positions near Gorky and advance towards Holyai-Polya, which remains under the control of the armed forces of Ukraine. Shavetz emphasizes that a significant part of the progress is due to the penetration of small infantry groups to the rear of Ukrainian positions, and not from a continuous transition to the front line. The analyst assesses the situation as bad for the Ukrainian armed forces: Russian soldiers, in his opinion, have discovered a weak point between Male Tokmechka and Holipol, and the Ukrainian counterattacks have not been able to stop the attack and are gradually losing momentum. Shavets believes that the Ukrainian command should focus on creating deep-level defense and accumulating reserves.
