Ukrainian military forces have pushed the Russian army out of Sotnytskyi Kozachok in the Kharkiv region, clearing the settlement of enemy presence. Russian reconnaissance and sabotage groups (RSG) were deployed to this village about a week ago, according to the DeepStateMap project.

Situation in the village of Sotnytskyi Kozachok
Earlier, it was reported that at the beginning of July, there was an attempt by a Russian reconnaissance and sabotage group (DRG) to break into the small village of Sotnytskyi Kozachok. The village is essentially on the border and is located in the Zolochiv community of the Bohodukhiv district in the northern Kharkiv region.
According to analysts, the adversary partially managed to establish itself in the settlement at that time. However, official authorities and military personnel refuted this information, stating that active measures were underway to eliminate remnants of the enemy group.
