Satellite images show that the Russians have dug a new series of field fortifications, including trenches and anti-tank ditches, in the southwest from the city of Lugov-along the highway E38 Lugo-Rylsk-Glukhukh. Satellite images also show that field fortifications have recently appeared near the 38K-024 route south of Legov.
"These new fortifications are located approximately 17 kilometers north of the farthest stated limit of the Ukrainian advancement in the Kursk region, which indicates that the Russian forces are concerned about a possible continuation and rapid Ukrainian mechanized advancement to the north in the Kursk region," analytics emphasized. Probably, Russia is "especially concerned" by the fate of the main highways and tries to protect important land lines in advance.
The enemy hopes to interfere with the Armed Forces maneuvers, especially along the E38 and 38K routes. In addition, the offensive of the Armed Forces in the Kursk region also affects the material and technical support of the Russian railway. It was reported that the State Administration "RZHD" canceled the departure of all trains from the stations of Belarus to the Orel-Kursk.
The declared reason is "large -scale prompt transfer of troops in the direction of Kursk region" and the movement of freight trains of military. In the Belgorod region, a state of emergency has already been declared. The report states that this will allow the local authorities to restrict movement to provide logistical support for the border of the region or defense in the Kursk region.
