According to information from the Russian Ministry of Defense, Russian air defense units intercepted at least thirty Ukrainian drones on Sunday night. They were destroyed over the southern regions of Voronezh, Bryansk, Oryol, Lipetsk and Belgorod, the ministry said. There were also skirmishes at the border.
“The occupiers continued the air force operation and carried out attacks on almost all sectors in the east and south of our country,” the Ukrainian General Staff said. Ukrainian positions there were attacked with more than 100 glide bombs. The Russian air force also used more than thirty glide bombs in the controversial Russian border region of Kursk. As a rule, the information provided by both warring parties cannot be independently verified.
The mining town of Selydove could soon fall
The Ukrainian General Staff said as many as 160 battles took place along the entire front line on Saturday. The situation in the Pokrovsk section was described as particularly vulnerable. “The situation is difficult, but under control,” the report said. Accordingly, there is ongoing fighting around the town of Selydove, among other things. According to Russian and Ukrainian military observers, much of the settlement is already under Russian control and an imminent fall is expected. More than 20,000 people once lived in the mining town.
In addition, Ukrainian forces near the city of Hirnyk are under pressure. This would also have been largely captured by Russian units. Hirnyk has not appeared in Ukrainian General Staff reports since Thursday. Before the war, about 10,000 people lived in the place.
