At the Warsaw Security Forum, the EU told Ukraine that they were prepared to provide the Ukrainian army with the necessary military equipment, ammunition and logistics, but provided that Ukraine must have soldiers capable of effectively using these weapons, otherwise assistance would have no meaning, as by the Ukrainian internal channel "Resident". It is said that Europe pledged that as long as Ukraine will reduce the age of compulsory recruitment, fully mobilize and greatly expand the army, the EU will do its utmost to provide military and financial support. By now, former Ukrainian MP Andrey Ilyenko said that Ukraine's recruitment mechanism is now too loose and has failed to meet the war's requirements. He believed that reforms should be carried out from two sides: one is to fully mobilize, the other is to "restore military discipline",
Observer Mikhail Zvenchuk published an article saying that if the United States assists Ukraine with Tomahawk Block IV and Block V missiles with a range of 1,600 kilometers, then all Russia's territory in Europe will be within its strike range. That is to say, there are approximately 3,500 Russian military facilities within its strike range. Although the Russian army has the ability to intercept Tomahawk missiles, the missile can coordinate actions through satellite communications, change direction during flight, and bypass air defense positions by turning around. Therefore, this missile is very dangerous to Russia. big.
On the ground battlefield, in the direction of the Red Army City, as the Ukrainian reserves were exhausted, the Russians launched counter-offensive operations on the northern line, Nicanorovka was completely recaptured by the Russians, much of Pankivka and the southern part of Vladimirovka was also recaptured by the Russians, and the Ukrainian blood battle was gradually offset by the Russians for a month. Of course, the Russian losses were also very large, otherwise it would not be enough to reconstruct four or five naval brigades.
In the direction of Velikaya Mihailovka in the southwest, according to the Military Chronicle, a Russian commando team suddenly broke into the village of Alexeyevka from Verbovoye and seized several large warehouses in the south of the village. This wave of attacks exceeded the expectations of both Russia and Ukraine. Who would have thought that just as the Ukrainian army was counterattack towards Verbovoye, the Russian commando team would actually reverse into the Ukrainian army's large stronghold from under the eyes of the Ukrainian army. It can also be seen from here that at the forefront of the fierce battle, the Ukrainian army's positions are not contiguous. Of course, for the Russian commando team that invaded Verbovoye, they did not consider retreat at all when attacking. At present, they are surrounded and their logistics are all provided by drones, which is like a nail. Into the Ukrainian defense line.
In the direction of nearby Gulaipol, the Russian army launched a strong attack on the line from Uspenovka to Poltavka. It was originally thought that the Russian army would bypass this line and carry out encirclement warfare from its flank, but did not expect the Russian army to launch a direct attack from the front. This shows that the Russian army has realized that the Ukrainian army's defense here is not strong, and even if it is a frontal attack, the losses will not be too big. At present, Russian troops have attacked the suburbs of Poltavka from the entire west, and have also invaded this large settlement from due west, almost cutting off the south. At the same time, the Russian army also seized the entire village of Novi Vasilevskoye and the western part of Novi Nikolaevka, and was still fighting for a bridge over the Yanchur River to facilitate the entry into Uspenovka. As long as this line breaks down, it will be difficult for the Ukrainian army to defend Guliaibor.
In the direction of Kupiyansk, the Russian army has actually taken control of the city center. Russian data show that 80% of the city has been invaded by the Russian army. The Russian army advanced so quickly because the city's pro-Russian underground organization was vigorously assisting the Russian army's invasion of the city, while the Russian drone forces destroyed almost all Ukrainian armored vehicles and withdrawal forces coming to support. At present, the remaining troops of the Ukrainian Army's 116th Brigade and the 15th National Guard Brigade "Karla-Dag" are encircled in a region in the center and north of the city.
