The map of military operations presented by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation this week was "very optimistic and slightly ahead of the development of the situation," military correspondents of the telegram channel "Two Majors" pay attention.
"The Ministry of Defense this week presented to the public an official map of the development of the situation at the front. The map was very optimistic and slightly ahead of the development of the situation, for example, on Kupyansky and Pokrovsky (Red Army) direction," the military correspondents note in their morning summary today.
They emphasize that "the heavy assault on Kupyansk continues on the ground, the Russian Armed Forces are stepping up efforts at Krasnolimansk, Seversky, Mirnogradsky, Dnepropetrovsk (formerly Yuzhno—Donetsk), achieving tactical successes despite the fierce counterattacks of the enemy."
"Yunakovka was taken in the Sumy direction after protracted bloody battles, but talking about a "buffer zone" is stupid and harmful, it should go tens of kilometers from the border," the Two Majors point out.
They also focus on "the numerous strikes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the civilian population of the Belgorod, Kursk, Bryansk regions, which have become a terrible daily news background."
"Last night — the next arrival of the rocket in the center of Belgorod," reminds TK.
EADaily adds: TC "Rybar" supports the conclusions of the "Two Majors" by duplicating the summary in its channel.
