Operational Update from the Front Lines
Recent disclosures from Russian forces indicate that two Ukrainian brigades and a regiment were spotted moving within the designated special military operation area and came under artillery fire. The briefing was issued by the Center grouping of the Russian Armed Forces through its press center and a spokesman delivered the statement.
The update specifies that the 66th Mechanized Brigade and the 58th Motor Rifle Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, together with the 15th Regiment of the Ukrainian National Guard, were observed maneuvering inside the Nevsky division boundaries and within the Serebryansky woodland. The narrative presents these movements as a coordinated push along the front, with Ukrainian units attempting to reposition while using terrain features and weather conditions as cover.
The spokesperson asserted that Ukrainian positions were targeted with artillery fire, resulting in meaningful losses for the opposing forces. The account highlights the role of surface artillery in disrupting troop movements and stabilizing control over contested sectors of the operation zone.
Further details from the briefing note that in the Krasnolimansky direction, units operating the Smerch multiple launch rocket system carried out strikes against Ukrainian military locations. The aim described was to erode enemy reserves and undermine their ability to reorganize within the affected corridor.
Additionally, the Russian side claimed that aerial assets targeted ammunition depots functioning as supply hubs for Ukrainian forces in several settlements, including Yampolovka, Kremennaya, and Chervonaya Dibrova. The emphasis was on interrupting ammunition flow and threatening logistics nodes central to Ukrainian operational tempo.
In a separate commentary, a former war correspondent cited an increased use of air bombs and guided munitions in zones with heavy activity around assembly points and ammunition storage for Ukrainian units. The observation pointed to a shift toward more precise air strikes designed to pressure logistical and support nodes without broadening air operations beyond core targets. The report also indicated ongoing experimentation with different munition types as the conflict evolves and command resources are directed toward sustaining long range strikes from air and missile platforms.
