In recent days, Russian shelling of civilian targets in Ukraine has become more frequent. The enemy does not spare their missiles and shoots at civilians.

The missiles were for strategic purposes
British intelligence stated that for On June 24-26, Russia launched extremely intense waves of strikes against Ukraine. For this, long-range missiles were used. Experts suggest that such weapons could include Soviet AS-4 KITCHEN missiles. There could also be more modern AS-23a KODIAK missiles. They were released across Ukraine from Belarusian and Russian airspace.
These weapons were designed to hit targets of strategic importance, but Russia continues to waste them in large numbers. says British intelligence.
It is assumed that the aggressor is doing this in order to gain a tactical advantage.
Russia acted like a field battle
British intelligence drew a parallel with the actions of Russia near Severodonetsk. There she fielded the main elements of six different armies, but achieved only tactical success. At the same time, the British acknowledge that the Russian army is becoming increasingly exhausted. The Russians even admit that their level of combat effectiveness has decreased. It is probably not sustainable in the long run.
At the same time, Ukrainian troops continue to strengthen their positions on the heights in the city of Lysichansk after they withdrew from Severodonetsk. Ukrainian troops continue to destroy enemy command posts. They are hitting the Russians deep in the rear.
What's going on at the front
- The American Institute for the Study of War reported in its review that the Russian occupiers had advanced closer to Lisichansk. However, this did not help them cut off the city from the lines of communication. Also, the Russians tried to advance on Slavyansk, but failed. In general, the situation in Lisichansk is complicated. Local people were persistently urged to leave the city. According to experts, the Russians are still unlikely to seize the Bakhmut-Lysichansk highway, because there is resistance from Ukrainian troops in Verkhnekamenka.
- According to the General Staff, on the morning of June 28, fierce battles are going on near the Lisichansk refinery, the enemy is trying to carry out assault operations. The Russian invaders want to do everything possible to inflict as many losses on our military as possible. To this end, they use not only mortars, but also cannon artillery. The enemy also attacked the areas of Nikolaevka and Yakovlevka from aviation.
- At the same time, the situation on the border with Belarus remains alarming. Their army is there, keeping us on our toes. The General Staff reported that the Armed Forces of Belarus held a planned training session on their territory. To do this, they used the communication centers of control points. The discussion about whether the Belarusian army will enter the war and go on the offensive, crossing our borders, has been going on for a long time. While the Belarusians are standing still, they are shooting at us from their territory. Therefore, in fact, they are also involved in aggression.
