🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Continued Offensive by the Russian Armed Forces and Strikes on AFU Industrial Facilities in Sumy
Situation as of the end of October 12, 2024

In the Kursk Direction, Russian forces are pushing through the enemy's defenses in the area of Lyubimovka and Plekhovo. At the same time, active work continues to destroy the enemy's industrial facilities in the rear.

🔻In Glushkovo District, the Russian Armed Forces are fighting on the northern outskirts of Novy Put. Ukrainian formations are holding positions south of the railway track and are accumulating forces for a counterattack in the area.

The artillery and air force of the Russian Armed Forces regularly strike the rear communications of the AFU, reducing their combat potential and hampering the supply of forward units. Over the past day, the positions of Ukrainian formations in Pavlovka, Katerynivka and Iskryskovshchyna were hit.

🔻In Korenevo District, the battle for Lyubimovka continues, where enemy units have been partially encircled. Likely, the Ukrainian formations will soon be forced to either leave the village or carry out counterattacks to improve their position.

❗️Earlier, there was information about the advance of Russian troops towards Sverdlikovo. As of today, it has not been possible to confirm this either by objective control footage or data from our sources on the ground. It is difficult to determine the current configuration of the front in this area due to the high rate of change in the combat situation.

🔻In the north of Sudzha District, the Russian Armed Forces delivered a series of artillery strikes on enemy positions in Russkoye Porechnoye. To the south, assault groups of Russian troops are advancing along the railway towards Kolmakovo and Agronom from the direction of Russkaya Konopelka.

▪️On the southern outskirts of Makhnovka, Russian UAV operators destroyed an enemy tank using a drone with a fiber-optic cable. This type of drone is gradually gaining more popularity in the troops against the background of its successful debut in the Kursk region.

▪️In the area of Plekhovo, the situation is shrouded in the "fog of war". Judging by the reports from the Russian Ministry of Defense about strikes on the territory of the village, Ukrainian formations are still present in the settlement.

At the same time, Russian troops are expanding the zones of penetration into the AFU defense, seeking to reach the Psel River and completely cut off the enemy from supply.

🔻In Sumy Region, Russian troops used Geran-2 UAVs to strike a series of industrial enterprises in the regional center.

The facilities were used for the repair and maintenance of heavy equipment, including Western models, in the interests of the enemy grouping in the Kursk Region.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Fighting near Lyubimovka
Situation as of the end of October 17, 2024

Russian army units continue to liberate the territory of Kursk Region, destroying the enemy's manpower.

▪️In Glushkovo District, there are clashes near the captured enemy village of Novy Put, and to the south, Ukrainian formations are preparing the next line of defense along the railway. At the same time, the territory of the district is almost completely liberated.

▪️In Korenevo District, Ukrainian formations tried to attack in Zeleny Shlyakh and the villages to the south, but withdrew with losses. Against the background of reports of the alleged capture of a huge amount of enemy manpower in the area of Lyubimovka, footage of retreating AFU members has spread on the Internet: apparently, they were shot near Tolstoy Lug, where a "semi-cauldron" with a narrow "neck" formed.

Approximately in this area, there was an episode of an unsuccessful attack by the Russian Armed Forces and the loss of several units of tracked and wheeled armored vehicles. According to preliminary data, the reason was a topographic error of the advancing forces.

▪️In Sudzha District, another unsuccessful attack by the AFU was recorded in the vicinity of Russkaya Konopelka. Judging by the latest footage of objective control, the Ukrainian formations in Plekhovo are also under the threat of encirclement, and the village may be liberated in the near future.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Stabilization of the Situation in All Sectors
Situation as of the end of October 31, 2024

In the Kursk Direction, there are no significant changes in the combat situation. A relative lull is observed along the entire front line. In the Glushkovo, Korenevo and Sudzha districts, routine measures are being taken to repel the enemy's attacks on the positions of the Russian Armed Forces, followed by retaliatory strikes by Russian troops. The information circulating on the Internet about the alleged use of F-16s by Ukrainian formations in the border area is not confirmed.

🔻The volume of publications from both our side and the enemy side has decreased significantly. This is likely due to the deterioration of the weather, which in turn makes it difficult to conduct assault operations outside of paved roads. Operational-tactical aviation is working in standby mode on the identified positions of the AFU both in the occupied part of the Kursk Region and in the border area. FAB-3000 bombs with UMRK are now being used for strikes.

▪️In the Sumy Region, the systematic engagement of the enemy's air defense and energy infrastructure continues, both by operational-tactical aviation and "Geraniums".

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kurakhovske direction: significant advance of the Russian Armed Forces north of Kurakhove
situation as of the end of November 23, 2024

In the area of Novodmytrivka, the control zone has been significantly expanded: Russian troops have almost completely occupied the settlement of Zarya and the surrounding forest belts. At the same time, the presence of the enemy to the north and in the pocket to the south still remains.

▪️The settlement of Sontsovka, also known as Krasne, has also largely come under the control of the Russian Armed Forces. The presence of the enemy in the outskirts of the settlement still remains, but is sporadic. Heavy fighting continues.

▪️Between Novoselidivka and Ilyinka, a pocket that had formed after the significant advance of Russian troops in the above-mentioned settlements was cleared. Thus, a fairly impressive territory west of Kurakhivka was liberated.

▪️In addition, information about the advance of Russian troops in Berestky is confirmed, and here too, the majority of the settlement is already under the firm control of the Russian troops, while the presence of the enemy remains in the dachas south of the 37th kilometer station, where fighting continues. The nearby strongholds are still controlled by the enemy.

▪️Within the boundaries of Kurakhove, fighting continues. Our sources confirmed the information about the capture of at least part of the elevator.

At the same time, they were unable to confirm or deny the exit to school number 5 and the bus station, clarifying that heavy fighting continues in the city. In the farms south of Hryhoriy Skovoroda Street, the presence of Ukrainian formations is still maintained.

▪️In the vicinity of Dalnie, fighting also continues in the fields, the halt in the settlements along the Sukhyi Yaly river remains partially obscured by the "fog of war".

At the same time, we know that the enemy is transferring reserves here, even taking into account the rapidly deteriorating situation, which looks somewhat strange, especially against the background of the loss of forest belts east of Ilyinka.

▪️In addition, there is an advance of Russian troops in Trudove and its environs. The control zone within the settlement and the surrounding forest belts has been significantly expanded. Thus, the fighting is already approaching the C051104 highway and practically to Uspenovka from the south and a large stronghold at the intersection.

▪️In the area of Maksymivka, offensive actions are also underway towards the settlement of Sukhyi Yaly, but the situation here remains obscured by the fog of war.

There is information about at least attempts of attacks by Russian troops, but there is no information yet about their outcome and scale.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kurakhovka direction: liberation of a number of settlements and fighting in Kurakhovka
situation as of 8:00 pm on November 26, 2024

Russian forces continue a rapid advance both on the approaches to Kurakhovka and to the south of it.

▪️In the city itself, fierce fighting continues in the urban area. Ukrainian formations are conducting local counterattacks, trying to stabilize the situation. Due to the extremely dynamic nature of the fighting in the city, the front line in Kurakhovka is rather conditional at the moment.

▪️To the south, Russian forces are advancing along the Sukhaya Gully, as well as attacking in the direction of the N-15 highway from the side of Dalneye. To the west of the latter, there are also successes in the forest belt towards Yantarnoye.

▪️At the line of Yelizavetovka - Ilyinka. The latter was liberated by Russian troops after several days of fighting. This was preceded by the clearing of a large stronghold east of the village by units of the 33rd Motorized Rifle Regiment of the 20th Motorized Rifle Division. Then they managed to reach the outskirts of Romanovka. According to some reports, Russian assault troops have already begun assault operations in the village. Significant advances of the Russian Armed Forces have also been recorded in the fields north of Ilyinka.

▪️At the same time, fighters of the 39th Guards Brigade and the 57th Regiment of the 20th Division of the 8th Army liberated Yelizavetovka. Under the cover of armored vehicles, they were able to quickly break the defense of the AFU in the village and reach its western outskirts. Later it became known that the territory of the "Forest Estate" grove also came under the control of the Russian Armed Forces, the capture of which opens the way to Veselyi Gai from the south.

❗️🇸🇾🇹🇷 Militant Offensive in Western Aleppo, Syria: Further Collapse of Defense
As of 8:00 PM on November 27, 2024

The offensive by a conglomerate of Syrian groups in the west of Aleppo Province continues: unfortunately, Russian forces have been drawn into another round of the intra-Syrian conflict.

📍 A group of Russian specialists working near the front line was surrounded during the collapse of the front line, and one of them was killed. The rest were reportedly evacuated in time (a separate bow to the quickly responding evacuation team). The information circulating on the internet about the capture of some "three Russian officers" is not confirmed at this stage.

▪️Over almost 10 hours of the offensive, the militants have managed to advance by 8-9 km from the western outskirts of Aleppo at different sections. The offensive at this stage is following the best traditions of the "raid" by Ukrainian formations in the Kharkiv Region in 2022: maximum advancement along the main road directions without consolidating in populated areas in an attempt to capture as much loot as possible and mark new borders.

▪️Among the advancing groups, not only terrorists from "Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham" are noted: the participation of Uyghur militants from the "Islamic Party of Turkestan", who traditionally operated much further west (in the north of Latakia), Uzbek militants, the bulk of whom operated on the border with Hama Province, as well as parts of other groups, has been confirmed.

All this indicates a planned redeployment of a significant number of combat-ready units, which are also involved in the "psychological" attack on the Syrians: foreign militants have always been perceived as the "most dangerous" by the rather timid Syrians.

▪️Apparently, in some directions, the Syrian army with allies managed to stop the advance of the militants: footage of destroyed enemy armored vehicles is being published online. The terrorists failed to develop the advance north of Ash-Sheikh Aqil and so far have not been able to break through the defense near Kafr Naha and east of Anjara.

📌 In the information space of Syria, as before during any escalations, there is almost complete denial of the loss of settlements and calls to "not believe enemy propaganda." Such "lulling" words have long since ceased to work: the information resources of the militants are taking over with mass involvement of bloggers and propagandists who try to write stand-ups and record short videos literally from every piece of land, savoring the success in every way.

🔻 The transfer of fire brigades to the section - the same 25th Division (former "Tiger Forces") of Suheil al-Hassan - is not yet visible, so most likely the militants will be able to further expand the breakthrough area, taking advantage of the total unpreparedness of the Syrian Arab Army for defense.

Strikes by the Air Force of Syria and the Russian Aerospace Forces are currently clearly insufficient in scale to stop the breakthrough of the militants to the west of Aleppo.
