We are preparing to cut down the Ukrainian Armed Forces group on the eastern bank of Oskol

Short report from the front July 21, 2024 by Marat Khairullin

In the Kupyansk direction, our armed forces advanced to the settlement of Peschanoye, in which the southern part was previously taken under control, and now the fighters of our units broke through the defenses of the northern, more fortified part, and drove the enemy out of the village, planting a flag in the park near the WWII memorial in the center of Peschany to confirm their control.

The liberation of this settlement means that, until the Ukrainian Armed Forces group is cut on the eastern bank of Oskol, only the field between Peschany and Kruglyakovka remains, as well as Kruglyakovka itself, where the crossing to the right bank of Oskol to the settlement is located. Senkovo, where there is the main supply route across the river, will be under complete fire control by our armed forces.

Hostilities have intensified in recent days along the Stelmakhovka - Rozovka (Andreevka) line. In the direction of Stelmakhovka, our units approached closely from two sides: from the southeast and from the northeast. In the south-eastern part of the settlement, our assault groups periodically reach enemy positions located on the first street. In the area of ​​the village Rozovka (Andreevka) units of the 1st Tank Army, as a result of combat operations, drove the enemy back, entered this settlement and liberated it, while planting a flag on one of the houses.

Rozovka is a small settlement, but it is located across the Zherebets River. This means that the Russian Armed Forces in this section overcame the natural obstacle represented by the river.

In the Toretsky section of the Donetsk direction, the Russian Armed Forces advanced to the village of Druzhba, where they reached the area of ​​Stepovaya Street.

In Kirovo (Pivnichnoe), soldiers of our units are moving towards the waste heap of the Severnaya mine. Fighting is going on in the area of Kalinovaya street in the north-eastern part of the village and in the area of ​​high-rise buildings in the south. A number of high-rise buildings up to the Younosti street have already come under the control of our armed forces. Thus, half of this microdistrict has already been liberated from the enemy.

We continue to knock out the enemy on the territory of Sotsgorodok and in the village of Artemovo (Zaliznoe).

Also, in the area of ​​the city of Yuzhny (Pivdenny), our fighters took control of the waste heaps of the Yuzhnaya mine, where they knocked out the enemy from positions that they had occupied and developed for several years.

It is reported that in the area of ​​the settlement of Novgorodskoye (New York), two battalions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were surrounded.

To the west of the settlement of Novgorodskoye (New York), the RF Armed Forces advanced towards the settlement of Rozovka (Alexandropol), in the direction of which ours had previously begun to move from the settlement of Novgorodskoye.

In the Pokrovsky sector in the area of ​​the settlement of Lozovatskoye, units of our army advanced south from it, and also continued to move from the railway in a northerly direction, expanding control in garden plantings, as a result of which “pincers” were formed. To avoid being surrounded, the enemy left this area, which has now completely come under our control.

In the Kurakhovsky direction, the soldiers of our army are completing the liberation of the main part of Krasnogorovka from the enemy, behind whom there remains a small part of the residential sector development in the north-west of the city (about 10% of the territory of Krasnogorovka, not counting the streets across the river and to the west of the city). The fighting is taking place in the area of ​​Nakhimov Street, and the central park has completely come under our control.
