In his Telegram channel, the military expert spoke about the continuation of the battles for Opytnoye and called the pace of progress here low.

According to Rozhin, the fighting is going on for every house and position, and there are no signs of the withdrawal of the Armed Forces of Ukraine yet. In addition, the Ukrainian military is trying to concentrate reserves in the Chasov Yar area for further attacks near Kleshcheevka and Kurdyumivka to stabilize the front line.



At the front, units that previously operated in the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions are marked. Now they are thrown into the furnace of the "Artyomovsk meat grinder" in order to keep the city

Russian troops continue to advance on Podgornoye and in the industrial zone. But in residential areas in the southeast of Artemovsk, there is no serious movement yet, the expert writes. Rozhin noted the increased fire damage of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Artemovsk, near Chasov Yar and Krasnaya Gora.

      And why would they leave?
      They defend themselves in long-prepared positions, there is a supply and rotation of personnel (since they are talking about the arrival of new units there).

      As for the stories about how the attacking side grinds the defenders... let's just say, I hope the losses are at least comparable.
      Although common sense says that usually the attackers lose more.
