The Ukrainian military thwarted several offensive operations by the Russian Armed Forces.
Over the past few days, the Ukrainian Defense Forces have advanced in the Kharkiv, Donetsk, and Zaporizhzhia regions. In addition, they have thwarted several offensive operations by the Russian Federation’s army.
This is reported by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
Sumy Oblast
On September 22 and 23, Russian troops continued offensive operations in the north of the region, but the Ukrainian Armed Forces prevented the enemy from advancing.
U.S. analysts note that the Russian army is suffering significant losses due to the use of infiltration tactics in the north of the region.
In addition, it is reported that the occupiers carried out a series of airstrikes on Sumy.
Kharkiv Oblast
In recent days, the occupiers have continued offensive operations in the north of Kharkiv Oblast, but have not achieved any confirmed advances.
In this sector, the positions of Ukrainian and Russian forces are largely intermingled, making it difficult to clearly determine who controls specific areas.
At the same time, it is known that the Defense Forces have recently advanced in the Kupiansk direction. Geolocation data indicates that Ukrainian forces are advancing west of Kalinove and north of Kupiansk. There have also been reports of Ukrainian military presence near Kalinove and north of Kondrashivka, which allows for improved positions on the flanks of Kupiansk.
Donetsk Oblast
Ukrainian Armed Forces troops have achieved new successes in the Chasovoy Yar area. According to analysts, Ukrainian forces have advanced in the eastern and central parts of Molocharka, located southwest of Chasovoy Yar and north of Konstantinovka.
In addition, Ukrainian forces have been observed advancing east of Stenka and northeast of Konstantinovka.
In other parts of the region, Ukrainian forces have recently advanced south and southeast of Novopavlivka. At the same time, Russian troops have either advanced or held their positions southeast of the settlement.
Zaporizhzhia Oblast
Defense forces recently advanced southeast of Oleksandrivka. Ukrainian forces also advanced or held their positions in the southern part of Orekhiv. At the same time, Russian forces attempted to penetrate the area northeast of the city.
It is also known that the Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to disrupt Russian logistical operations in the occupied part of the Zaporizhzhia region.
