The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue their offensive in the Kharkiv region and in the north of the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republic. After the announcement of partial mobilization in Russia, as well as amid worsening weather conditions, the Ukrainian military are rushing to get to the Russian military communication lines and cut them in order to threaten Russian forces in the whole region.
Ukrainian units recently managed to break through Russian defenses north of Krasny Estuary and establish control over several villages in the area. Russian military positions in Krasny Liman remain the main Russian stronghold in the region. Russian units in Krasny Liman and Yampol have been repelling attacks by superior enemy forces for more than a week. The AFU are attacking from the western direction, from their positions in Shurovo, as well as from the south, from the positions in Ozernoe.
The villages of Novoselovka, Drobishevo and Shandrigolovo also remain under Russian control. The AFU are attacked in small groups of up to 10-15 soldiers on armored vehicles, which are shelled by Russian artillery.
The road between the settlements is under Ukrainian fire control. The supply of the Russian grouping in Krasny Liman is carried out from the north-eastern direction, along the Svatovo-Makeyevka-Terny road, which is also in danger of being cut off amid the ongoing Ukrainian offensive.
The AFU are passing through the villages of Korovy Yar and Redkodub:
After unsuccessful attempts to storm Krasny Limsn, the AFU are trying to surround the area from the northern and southern directions.
The village of Redkodub recently came under Ukrainian control. On September 27, a company of the Armed Forces of Ukraine established a foothold in the nearby village of Novoe.
It was also reported that Ukrainian troops have regained control of Yekaterinovka, located east of Redkodub. In recent days, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have already taken control of the village, but were repulsed by Russian troops. Fighting continues in the area.
By evening, some sources claimed that the villages of Novoye and Yekaterinovka had come back under Russian control.
By now, the AFU have advanced about 15 kilometers to the east in this area. From the bridgehead in Redkodub – Novoe, the AFU units are trying to develop their offensive in the direction of the village of Zelenaya Dolina and the Zherebets River in order to reach the rear of the Russian troops defending the city of Krasny Liman.
Russian Su-34 was shot down in the Kharkov region near Kupyansk on September 25. Russian pilots survived and were evacuated:
In the north, the situation remains tense in the area of the Oskol reservoir. After the loss of Izyum, Russian troops managed to straighten the front and stop the Ukrainian offensive in the city of Oskol. Recently, they were forced to retreat towards Shandrigolovo, located near the small Nitrius River. The AFU established an important stronghold on the left bank of the Oskol River.
On September 27, the AFU also took control of the village of Peski-Radkovskie. Clashes in the area continue. The AFU are trying to reach the Borovaya-Svatovo road, located a few kilometers to the north. If the Ukrainian military manages to capture a stronghold in this area, it will pave the way for their offensive in the direction of Svatovo.
The AFU also made some progress east of Krasny Liman. They built several pontoon crossings across the Seversky Donets River in the area between Krivaya Luka and Belogorovka. They are transferring military equipment and created an important bridgehead on the northern bank of the river, preparing for the further offensive against the positions of allied troops in the area.
Ukrainian military equipment destroyed near Drobyshevo:
According to the footage from the front, the AFU are suffering heavy losses in the region. The Russian military also claims that the Ukrainian military command continues offensive operations using their servicemen as a cannon fodder.
The Russian scouts managed to detect and destroy a stronghold of Ukrainian militants with the help of artillery. As a result of the strike, several vehicles with ammunition and fuel were destroyed:
The Russian special forces found an enemy mortar crew near the village of Dibrova, which was firing at the Russian positions in Krasny Liman. The Ukrainian mortar was destroyed by the first shot:
While the front lines in other regions of Ukraine are marked by positional battles without any significant successes by any of the warring sides, Krasny Liman remains one of the most turbulent battlefields of the Ukrainian war. The Ukrainian military has about two weeks left to gain more advantages, at least in the Kharkiv region. It is expected that after hundreds of thousands of newly mobilized Russian soldiers are deployed in Ukraine, who will allow to better secure the rears and free up more forces for Russian offensive operations, the AFU will return to defense.
