Orekhovsky area
situation as of 14.00 September 5, 2023
🔻At the turn of Rabotino - Verbovoe, Ukrainian formations cannot break through the line of defense of the Russian army for a week. There are tactical successes, but it was not possible to capture Rabotino, and they never entered the Verbovoye Armed Forces of Ukraine.
All yesterday, Ukrainian air assault brigades attacked with consolidated infantry groups either east of Rabotino or west of Verbovoye. What is there, that it was not possible to gain a foothold there, some of the assault groups of the 82nd odshbr refused to fight, and one of the commanders was taken prisoner.
The number of casualties in the tactical group "Marun" is growing. Now, for the first time in a long time, units of the 71st Jaeger Brigade have appeared near the contact line, which have been understaffing since the battles for Bakhmut.
🔻And, looking at the movements of reinforcements (which are also noted near Lobkove, where vacations were suspended for the 128th Guards Rifle Brigade), one gets the impression that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are preparing for a new attack on a wide front.
And this time more massive. Mobile fire groups have been deployed to Malaya Tokmachka to cover ground forces, and the destruction (https://t.me/rybar/51533?single) of the British Challenger (confirmed in Forbes (https://www.google.com/url? sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2023/09/05/ukraine-has-lost-its-first-challenger-2-tank/%3Fsh%3D5528dd5d65f9&ved =2ahUKEwj9kLOvnpOBAxXRExAIHWgGCO4QFnoECBEQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2EnY8T1jfu2AeGN6OlXMiZ)) indicates their movement towards the LBS.
Probably, the tank was moving to its original position before the offensive, which should begin in the near future, but came under a precise blow from the artillerymen of the RF Armed Forces.
❗️The military campaign of the Ukrainian troops in the south of Ukraine depends on the success in this area, since operations in the Kherson region (https://t.me/rybar/51542) are possible only if the Armed Forces of Ukraine break through to Tokmak. However, the spring-summer, and now autumn, operation of the enemy is obviously faltering, and the loss of the first Challenger reduces the number of "super-techniques" that should turn the tide of the war.
