The conflict is culminating south of the city of Bachmut. Ukrainian troops at the price of immense losses in people, captured the hills around Kleszczevka and rancid attack the village since morning. General Ołekandr Syrian commanding this section of the front lost the conflict of Bachmut and at all costs wants to rehabilitate himself by recovering the city.
At the positions of the Russian village's 83rd Independent Guards Air and Storm Brigade (the unit was established in 1985 in Poland in my hometown of Białogard), the Ukrainian infantry attacked with waves, reservists from 112 and 188 Territorial Defence Brigades. erstwhile at the price of many victims, they revealed fire points and positions of Russian paratroopers, who lost most of their ammunition in this fight, the nationalists from the 3rd Attack Brigade “Azov” passed the attack. In addition, Russian paratroopers are attacked by the 5th Assault Brigade and 24th “Aidar” Battalion and the “Kalinowski” Regiment and 120th Reconnaissance Battalion.
The Ukrainian 28th Mechanized Brigade is approaching the neighboring 11th Self-Department Brigade.
July 25 Ukrainians have continued to attack since morning to break through the Russian Kleshcheevka defense. Due to General Sergey Kuzowlev's direction, commanding Russian forces on this section of the front, parts of the reserves (80 Guards of the Tanks from the 90th Guarded Armoured Division) on the northern periphery, the situation began to stabilise as early as noon.
Ukrainians stood on the western border of the village, which confirms most of the western resources of OSINT. Although Ukrainian sources say that Russian troops withdrew behind railway tracks east of the village, this does not seem to be true. At the moment, the village, or its ruins, is located in a grey area. The control of hills in the west (average 150 to 200 m) allows the Armed Forces of Ukraine to keep Kleshcheevka under fire control.
Since under force from Ukrainian soldiers Russian forces withdrew from Andreevka, the main line of confrontation moves north. If the Ukrainian attack is set on the confederate flank of the village, The Russians will retreat behind the railroad tracks.
For the price of large losses Ukrainian forces were successful, but not quite. It is worth considering the experience of fighting for Piatikatki in Zaporozh, erstwhile Ukrainian troops were drawn deep into the Russian defense, falling under the fire of dense artillery and aviation.
Within the next 24 hours it will be revealed whether it was created in the Russian defence lines south of Bachmut breach and whether the Syrian general will direct his detachment here -80th Brigade of the Desantowo Szturmowa , whether General Kuzowlew will direct the second tank regiment and infantry regiment here and stabilize the front south of Kleszczewka.
There's inactive no Russian operational reconnaissance in the back. On the another hand, General Ołekandr Syrski is counting on support, intended to be invaded as part of the large spring summertime offensive, the main Ukrainian forces. If he's successful at Bachmut, why direct them to Zaporozhye?
