Russian troops refused to blockade Kiev due to losses - General Staff

Due to heavy losses, Russian troops abandoned the operation to blockade Kyiv. Nevertheless, the supply of troops in the Donetsk and Tavrichesk directions is being stepped up.

This was reported on Facebook by the General Staff of the AFU.

According to the General Staff, the enemy has suffered significant losses and has probably temporarily abandoned the task of blockading Kyiv.

It is also reported that Russian troops are regrouping and concentrating forces for an offensive operation in the Eastern operating zone. In addition, the system of technical and logistics support for troops in the Donetsk and Tavrichesk directions is being built up.

It is also reported that the accumulation of occupation troops in the area of the Chernobyl NPP, the Object Shelter and the Exclusion Zone as a whole continues.

In the Volyn area, the movement of enemy tactical units and changes in their composition have not been recorded.

At Polessk, the enemy troops moved along the state border between Ukraine and Belarus.

At Seversky, the enemy concentrated its efforts on sabotage and reconnaissance activities.

On Brovary - partial withdrawal of units from the area occupied by the occupants towards the border with the Russian Federation.

On Slobozhansky - the invaders continue to blockade Kharkiv.

On Izyumskoye - the enemy continues rocket and bomb strikes and artillery shelling.

In Donetsk, the enemy concentrates its main efforts on taking control of the towns of Popasna, Rubizhne and Mariupol.

On the Yuzhnobuzhsky and Tavrichesky districts, the occupiers are trying to take measures to restore the combat effectiveness of their troops.

The spontaneous detonation of ammunition in Russian Belgorod is an example of the typical mass use of obsolete dangerous ammunition by the Russian military, including from World War II.
