Russia's objective is to advance to a point from which its artillery could strike Zaporizhzhia more effectively

The Russians attacked the Zaporizhzhia region. A private house was partially destroyed and a farm building was completely destroyed. A 65-year-old man was injured.

Russians from 40th Naval Infantry Brigade again tried to break through on the Huliaipole direction. Yesterday they failed to penetrate with a small infantry group, but for some reason they believed in their own forces and decided to try with armored vehicles this time

Enemy equipment - an armored combat vehicle and two quads with troops moving along the Malynivka-Zelenyi Hai-Huliaipole route - was timely detected by operators of the 414th Unmanned Systems Brigade 'Madiar's Birds'

Drones of the 225th Separate Assault Regiment, 5th Separate Assault Kyiv Brigade and other units of the Defense Forces joined the operation

As a result, the enemy's equipment was burned, the landing force tried to hide in residential buildings, but 'death found them there too'

The UAV command post in the Huliaipole area (Zaporizhzhia region) was hit.
