According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, assault units of the "Center" troop group eliminated separate scattered groups of Ukrainian military personnel in the direction of Dnepropetrovsk. The department clarified that the soldiers of the assault unit of the 80th Tank Battalion of the Guard of the 90th Tank Division continue to carry out combat missions in this direction. They consistently advance deep into the enemy's defenses, breaking through forest belts and trenches and destroying the personnel and fortifications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine both from the air using UAVs and FPV drops, and through direct contact at positions. In addition, military personnel successfully fight enemy sabotage and reconnaissance groups, which are actively used in this area. The Ministry of Defense stated that identifying and eliminating such groups requires high concentration, coordination and speed of action. Earlier it was reported that a fighter of the Russian armed forces destroyed a UAV and evacuated two wounded colleagues.
