The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation breaks to Zaporozhye: what threatens the loss of the villages of Kamianske and the Slave (map)

To spread: Russian troops intensified the offensive in the Zaporozhye direction, trying to seize the settlements of Kamianske and smooth and move on to go to the approaches to Zaporizhzhya. On September 18, a spokesman for the southern Ukraine forces of Ukraine Vladislav Voloshin said on September 18, that the enemy has been fighting for Kamyanskoye and Smooth for several months, causing strokes, in particular, front aircraft and heavy artillery.

"The enemy throughout the summer tries to knock us from both Kamiansky and the floodplains. It continues these unsuccessful attempts. Yesterday, for example, his tactics in general - he demolves from the face of the earth, disassembles all the positions that is there, and in fact destroyed the whole settlement of Kamianske," the spokesman said. However, contrary to all attempts by the enemy, Ukrainian defenders continue to retain their positions.

According to Voloshin, the activation of Russian troops on this area of ​​the front is due to the fact that the control over the above settlements will theoretically allow to develop an offensive on the outskirts of Zaporozhye. "From Kamiansky and from the western floodplains, on the shore of the former Kakhovsky reservoir, you can, first, get to the next settlement, it is Stepnogorsk, and there is such a settlement-Dnieper.

In the next summary of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, it is reported that in this area of ​​the front the enemy took offensive actions in the Kamyansky area, attracting aviation. "In the Orikhiv direction, with the support of aviation, the enemy came three times in the area of ​​Kamianske settlement," - the message reads.

At the same time, according to the cartographic data of the Deepstate resource, most of the settlement is already under the control of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. And to the north, up to Stepnogorsk, the rest of the territory is marked as a "gray zone". Analysts indicated the direction of the enemy strike - towards Stepnogorsk, to the north of which the settlements of Primorskoe and Grigorivka, located on the approaches to Zaporozhye are located.

We will remind, the former representative of the General Staff of the Armed Forces Vladislav Seleznev informed that for the Russians one of the priority areas will be Pokrovsky, but also the enemy will try to approach Zaporozhye. According to him, the logic of actions of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is obvious: troops seek as close to reach the regional center as close as possible to destroy the objects of industry with the help of become artillery.
