The situation for the Ukrainian Army in the Svatovo-Kupiansk-Liman axis is rapidly deteriorating. The Russian Armies continue to advance, without serious resistance, in all directions which confirms initial suspicions that their offensive is now unstoppable.
Russian troops occupied Tverdokhlimbovo, while according to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the troops of the 15th Mechanized Guards advanced to a frontal range of 3 km and to a depth of 2.7 km, west of Nadia.
All this while the Ukrainians are fighting for a few meters on the Zaporizhia front.
According to information, Ukrainians are evicting civilians from the settlement of Yampol to prepare the area for an all-out defense in case the Russian Army breaks through Ukrainian defenses west of Kremina.
This means it is only a matter of time before the Russians reach the settlement. Perhaps the Ukrainians no longer have sufficient forces in the region.
The Russians are scoring major tactical successes bringing a strategic victory even closer to the only sector of the front where they are conducting offensive operations.
Russian troops continued their attack in the direction of Svatovo after taking control of the village of Karamzinovka. Now the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are expanding the area of controlled territory.
Attacks are made towards Podkuchansk and Krivosheyka, as well as towards Melovatka, Novomikhailovsky and Zaliman. The purpose of the Russian plan is to attack a broad front and not a narrow part of it.
By July 26, the settlements of Nadia, Sergeevka and Kovalevka came under Russian control.
In the Svyatovo direction, during the Russian offensive, the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost three villages in the last three days.
At least two more will be occupied by Russian troops in the coming days.
At the same time, in the direction of Krasnolimansky, the Russian army repelled a counterattack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the village of Chervonaya Dibrova (Lugansk). The losses of the Ukrainians amounted to approximately 185 people.
Lieutenant General Igor Konashenkov, a spokesman for the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation said:
-Near the village of Yambol, the Russian Armed Forces destroyed the ammunition depot of the 100th territorial defense brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
-Yesterday, near the village of Sergeevka (Luhansk People's Republic), soldiers of the 15th Motorized Rifle Brigade of the 2nd Combined Arms Army continued to advance on Ukrainian positions, advancing 1.5 kilometers. A total of 3 kilometers deep into Ukrainian Army defenses in 48 hours.
-The advance of Russian forces in the Sergeevka area since July 23 amounted to a total of 12 kilometers along the front and three kilometers in the depth of enemy defenses.
The Russian army continues to repel attacks by Ukrainian formations and actively advance in the direction of Krasnolimansky. This follows from the report of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation on July 28, 2023.
-In the Krasnolimansky direction, Russian forces repelled in the Chervonaya Dibrova area, attacks by the 67th Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine against positions of the 228th Motorized Rifle Regiment of the 90th Tank Division of the Russian Armed Forces.
- Detachments of the 252nd and 752nd motorized rifle regiments of the 20th Army of the Russian Armed Forces advanced three kilometers west of Zhitlovka in Lugansk. The Ukrainian Army suffered significant losses.
-In addition, personnel and military equipment of the 25th Airborne, 21st, 67th Mechanized Brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the 100th Territorial Defense Brigade and the 5th Operational Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine were destroyed in areas of settlements such as Torskoye, Yampolovka, Novovodyanoe, Kremennaya, Chervonaya Dibrova.
