🇬🇧 🇺🇦 Orekhovsky area

situation by the end of August 26, 2023

🔻In Rabotino , the assault units of the 47th Ombre of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, again transferred to the front line, are trying to completely capture the village. The fighting is still going on on the southern outskirts, where infantry groups are thrown by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but artillerymen work out on them.

The enemy's original plan to establish control by Independence Day was thwarted. At the same time, the Zaporozhye Front reports that losses as a result of such “meat” assaults have reached quite significant numbers.

🔻Despite the activity in Rabotino, the most intense battles took place near Verbovoye , where detachments of 82 odshbr and 46 oambr were crushed by numbers. Paratroopers use a standard tactic: first, artillery destroys strongholds to the ground, and then infantry detachments break through there.

Thus, the enemy was able to advance in landings west of Verbovoye, regardless of losses. For the evacuation of the wounded and the dead to the front line, rescue teams of the 15th arr of the National Guard of Ukraine arrived.

❗️ Judging by the nature of the attacks, the Armed Forces of Ukraine intend to wedge between the villages and force the Russian troops to retreat from the settlements and thereby level the front line. And after that move inland to the heights of 136.8 and 110.3 to the west of Verbovoye.

To support the offensive, 12 D-30 howitzers from the 118 OMB of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were moved to Malaya Tokmachka , and five AS-90 self-propelled howitzers of the 117 OMB were moved to Omelnik and Krasnaya Krinitsa .
