Ukrainian troops continue to hold positions on the left bank of the Dnipro River, in particular near the village of Krynky. The intensity of hostilities in the Zaporizhzhya sector is decreasing, but the enemy continues air strikes and shelling.

On the left bank of the Dnipro River, Ukrainian units continue to hold footholds, in particular near the village of Krynky, a little northwest on the islands. This was reported by the spokesman for the Tavria military unit Dmytro Lykhoviy during a telethon, UNN reports .

Compared to the previous week, the intensity of hostilities is decreasing. If we talk about Zaporizhzhia region, i.e. Orikhivske and Huliaypillia directions, there have been zero combat engagements for three days. As for the Russian assaults on the ground, no enemy offensive attempts were recorded from the beginning of the day until 16:00

- Likhovoy said.

According to him, the only activity in the area of responsibility of the Tavria unit over the past two days has been in the Prydniprovsky direction.

The only activity in the last two days has been in the Prydniprovsky sector, that is, on the left bank of the Dnipro River, where our units continue to hold footholds, in particular near the village of Krynky a little northwest on the islands. The enemy is making small attempts to attack there with infantry units up to a squad size without armored vehicles. The enemy has not succeeded in one attempt, and no positions were lost

- Likhovoy said.

At the same time, he emphasized that zero combat engagements does not mean a lull at the front.

But with all this, in order to avoid the false impression that zero combat clashes means some kind of lull at the front, there is no such thing. Enemy aircraft are actively working, the enemy strikes with guided aerial bombs. Today, six of them have been dropped in our operational area. In particular, missile troops are working

- Likhovoy said.
