The occupiers have advanced significantly in Kurakhovo — DeepState spoke about the situation around the city

In particular, the occupiers continue to press in the north of Kurakhovo, moving along the Kurakhovo reservoir in the direction of Stary Terni. This settlement is the target of Russian assaults in the area, DeepState noted.

“Separate infantry units are already spotted at the approaches of the village, accordingly, it can be said that Berestki has completely come under the control of the enemy. It is a pity that in this area, false information about holding positions continues to be submitted “upwards”, the analysts said in a report.

It is also noted that heavy fighting continues for Sontsivka, where the Russian military constantly breaks through, but the Defense Forces of Ukraine effectively destroy them.

In addition, DeepState reports on “significant advances” of the occupiers in the city of Kurakhove itself, where they press from the east and try to gain a foothold in the area of ​​high-rise buildings on Pobieda Street and Prokofiev Avenue in the central part of the city.

“The infantry is slowly seeping into the city blocks, spreading control, but ahead of them is a difficult area in the form of an industrial zone, which they have begun to raze to the ground. A breakthrough from Stary Terni will make it very difficult to maintain the industrial zone, because the enemy will be able to approach from two sides, completely blocking logistics,” the message said.

It is also reported that fighting continues along the Yelyzavetivka-Romanivka-Hannivka-Uspenivka stretch, where Russian infantry and equipment are pressing in from all sides.

“Muscovites actively began to put pressure on Uspenivka from the side of Trudovoy, trying to achieve the main goal in this area – to close the pocket. Attempts to attack from Far are not abating,” DeepState added.

In addition, it is noted that to the south of Kurakhovo, the Russians are trying to improve their tactical position along the stretch of Yasna Polyana-Maksimivka, moving towards the H15 highway.
