The number of enemy personnel in Zaporizhzhia region reaches almost 90 thousand soldiers, but according to intelligence, there are no sharp, significant changes that would affect the nature of hostilities and no signs of the formation of an enemy offensive group.

Details

At the moment, the nature of the fighting is positional, a positional confrontation is underway. the Russians simply cannot conduct assault operations in several directions at the same time. Despite the fact that the enemy is active in the Pokrovske direction. In our operational area, although they are trying to conduct some point attacks, they are using small infantry units. Now there is a positional confrontation. Although if we take the number of enemy personnel, for example, in Zaporizhzhia region itself, there are quite a few Russians here: almost 90 thousand

- Likhovoy said.

According to Lykhoviy, intelligence reports that there are no sharp, significant changes that would affect the nature of the fighting and no signs of the formation of an enemy offensive group.

That is, the amount of enemy present in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions is not enough to conduct effective offensive actions further than the borders where the enemy is currently standing. I can say that our missile forces and artillery are working very effectively

- Mr. Lykhovoy added.

He also said that, if we talk about the entire Dnipro region, which is the Dnipro coastline, mainly in Kherson region, the number of Russian troops there is 65 thousand.

"But we need to take into account that there is a natural barrier for the enemy in the form of the Dnipro River. We have already communicated the situation regarding Krynky. It is that the village is completely destroyed, there are no positions left to hold on to in the village of Krynky. That is why our defenders are on other designated positions and footholds, but also on the left bank of the Dnipro. There have been no significant changes in this regard. The defense forces continue to perform combat missions on the left bank, including in the area of Krynky village, and continue to destroy the enemy," added the spokesman.

Recall

Mariupol mayor's advisor Petro Andriushchenko reported that the enemy continues to move equipment and personnel towards Rozovsky district of Zaporizhzhia region. The occupiers' vehicles are frankly fresh, and the soldiers are wearing new uniforms, which may indicate newly formed contractor/mobilized units in Russia.
