Ukrainian attacks on Zaporozhye front: heavy fighting does not stop
AFU has been trying for 11 hours to break the defence of Russian troops close to Orekhov, near Rabotino-Verbovoye. The AFU armoured groups are attacking the junction between two company strongholds, having managed to take only one height 178.2 in 11 hours. Russian fighters of the 291 Regiment company retreated from the front line of trenches to reserve positions under heavy pressure, these trenches were continuously hit by the enemy for another 3 hours before the offensive with all kinds of weapons. Soldiers from a company of the 291st regiment supported by neighbours from the 70th regiment, reconnaissance men from the 42nd motorized rifle division and the 22nd special forces brigade hold the next strongpoint. This manoeuvre was planned in advance to hold back such a powerful attack. According to preliminary data, the AFU has already lost up to 16 tanks and 15 other units of other equipment. Support is breaking through to Russian troops from neighbouring areas. Heavy fighting has not stopped for many hours, artillery is working from both sides.
