Russia is deploying four brigades to break through the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defenses, according to a Ukrainian military correspondent.
Four motorized rifle brigades of the Russian Armed Forces will be replenished and redeployed in the direction of Verbovoye to break through the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defensive line.
Ukrainian military correspondent Bohdan Papadin stated this on air on Dnipro TV, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"There is information that a rotation is taking place between units of the Center and East forces. The Russians are transferring four motorized rifle brigades from the Center group to the East group. This is most likely a planned withdrawal of the brigades that have been advancing for three months on the border between Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk regions toward Novopavlivka. These brigades will likely be reinforced and possibly redeployed to the Velykymykhailivka area... These groups will likely be deployed in the direction of Verbove in the near future ," Papadin stated.
The Russian Armed Forces have achieved success in this area in recent days, and these reinforcements will allow them to expand on this, explains Mikhail Zvinchuk, a former Defense Ministry press officer, to the Rybar channel.
"Considering the earlier successes of the Russian Armed Forces, the situation for the enemy is becoming quite challenging. The fighting is now effectively taking place deep between the enemy's extensive defensive lines. And if the enemy doesn't stabilize the situation, the Vostok will have an open path into the unprepared territories of the Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhzhia regions."
