According to Главком: Russia claimed it had seized the villages of Novoselivka and Huliaipilske in the Zaporizhzhia region. Ukraine’s defense forces, however, refuted this assertion with evidence from the 92nd Separate Assault Brigade named after Koshovyi Otaman Ivan Sirko. In response to Moscow’s claims, Ukrainian troops reported that the Russian soldiers filming footage to document the supposed capture were killed by drones operated by the 92nd and 61st separate brigades. One Russian soldier was taken prisoner.

This information highlights the ongoing hostilities in Ukraine’s full-scale war, now in its 1,587th day. The 92nd Separate Assault Brigade commented:

“Amid massive fires in Moscow and other major Russian cities, a fuel collapse in Russia, and a logistical breakdown in occupied Crimea following Ukrainian drone strikes, the Russian command decided to fabricate some kind of victory for their old, ailing Putin.” - 92nd Separate Assault Brigade

Russia’s claim of capturing new territory underscores the information war accompanying military operations, where each side seeks to showcase successes. Monitoring the frontline situation indicates that the conflict remains intense, with combat actions continuing to cause significant human and material losses on both sides.

Ukrainian defense efforts also demonstrate activity and readiness for counteroffensive actions, despite serious threats from the enemy.
