Russian troops intensify offensive push on front - Rubizh brigade

According to him, the enemy is trying to use the summer period to launch maximum assaults and advance.

“The enemy has amassed huge reserves, and these reserves are regularly replenished… They are suffering losses, but this does not stop them; reinforcements keep coming regularly. What holds the line is the character of the Ukrainian army and extraordinary bravery,” Nazarenko said.

He also added that the summer period is advantageous for the invaders due to favorable flight conditions for various types of drones.

Nazarenko emphasized that the most important thing is to prevent the occupiers from advancing during the summer when they use vegetation for camouflage.

Situation on the front

The situation in the Russian-Ukrainian war remains tense and difficult.

Since the beginning of July 8, about 150 combat engagements have occurred on the front line. The highest number of attacks was recorded in the Pokrovsk and Novopavlivka directions.

Over the past day, the Russian army lost 1,070 soldiers. More than 40 artillery systems, 172 drones, and 86 enemy vehicles were also destroyed.

Additionally, on the night of July 9, Russian forces once again launched attacks on Ukraine using kamikaze drones.

The Russian forces have already fired several Kinzhal missiles toward the country. These were headed toward the Ozerne airbase in Zhytomyr region and the Starokostiantyniv airbase in Khmelnytskyi region.
