The Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison in Krasnogorovka is doomed

Short report from the front July 13, 2024 by Marat Khairullin

In the Seversky direction, units of our army advanced east of the settlement of Razdolovka, lying in a lowland, and reached the heights northeast of the village. Thus, Perezdnoye, which also lies in the lowlands, and in the area of ​​the southern part of which strong points are equipped, will now be under pressure not only from the side that was liberated earlier, but also from the side of the heights.
Strikes are being carried out using artillery and aviation against the air defense forces and other Ukrainian Armed Forces facilities in the Seversk area.

In the Verkhnekamenskoye area, the enemy again established control over a stronghold located on the border of the DPR and LPR.

In the Toretsky section of the Donetsk direction in the settlement of Novgorodskoye (New York), battles for the central part of the village continue. Our fighters are also knocking out the enemy from positions in the southern part of the village, expanding control along Zheleznaya Street, and have already advanced along one of the forest belts to the west towards the heights lying between Novgorodsky and Panteleimonovka, and now they continue to expand control in a westerly direction south of Yuryevka.

In the Pokrovsky sector of the Donetsk direction, our armed forces are expanding control and improving their position in the area of ​​the villages of Vozdvizhenka and Lozovatskoye, and near Vozdvizhenka, our fighters reached a strong point located in the area of ​​farms in front of the village.

In the village Evgenovka the AFU was driven out of the central part of the village and we completely liberated the village of Voskhod a few days ago. The enemy still maintains a presence in the western part of Evgenovka, located near the Volchya River, slightly separate from the main part of the village. After its liberation, our units will go directly to the Volche-Progress line from both sides.

In the area of ​​Novoselovka Pervaya, the Russian armed forces broke through the enemy’s defenses, kicked out the enemy from the company stronghold “Kotenok” [kitten] (named this way due to its shape) and, having created a bridgehead on the territory of farms, having consolidated there, after artillery preparation, entered the northern part of the village.

For the enemy, this residential area is extremely important, so the forces and reserves located in this area were those sent here to hold the breakthrough by the AFU: including personnel and weapons from drones to multiple launch rocket systems.

On our side, a large number of different types of weapons are also involved, and drones are used to strike even single targets.

The fields between Voskhod and Novoselovka Pervaya also came under our control. We advanced to Novoselovka and in the fields south of Novopokrovskoye, eliminating a ledge there with Ukrops entrenched in it. Now ours are already approaching the outskirts of its southern part, which will further complicate the situation for AFU.

In Krasnogorovka, the Russian Armed Forces made significant progress in the eastern part of the city, completely taking control of the area of ​​high-rise buildings and the private sector to the north of them. The central hospital also came under the control of our units, and in the northern part of the city they moved west almost to Central Park. The AFU are gradually retreating to the only possible escape routes from the city in its northwestern part. The situation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is aggravated by problems in the supply of ammunition, food and, most critically, water. As a result, infectious diseases are now breaking out among personnel.

The Ukrops understand that the garrison in the city is doomed and complain that “bringing (rotation/reinforcements) into the city is a huge problem, but getting it out is almost impossible,” and therefore cases of refusal to carry out orders are becoming more frequent. In fact, now Krasnogorovka is a big mousetrap for them that is ready to slam shut.

Additionally,

In the village of Urozhaynoye, units of our army advanced with battles to the center of the village, knocking out the enemy from the fortifications and strongholds they had equipped in their houses.
On one of the buildings in the central part of the village, soldiers of the 37th Organized Motorized Rifle Brigade of the 36th Army of the Russian Armed Forces planted the Russian flag.
