The situation near Milovo in Kharkiv region: what is known
— Over the past 24 hours, the Russians have become more active in the area of the settlement of Milovo, a village northeast of the settlement of Bolshoy Burluk. There, enemy infantry crossed the state border and attacked our positions with the support of artillery and drones, — the spokesman for the Kharkov operational tactical group, Pavel Shamshin, reported on the United News television broadcast.

The speaker noted that the occupiers tried to advance in the direction of the village of Ambarnoye, but were stopped.

– Then he (the enemy, – Ed. ) changed direction and moved towards the village of Khatnee, but was also stopped there. At the moment, the Ukrainian Defense Forces have stabilized the situation in that area, there is no further advance of enemy troops there, – Shamshin said.
He added that the situation remains difficult, since in the past 24 hours alone, the Russians stormed the positions of Ukrainian defenders 19 times.
“There were 24 assaults on Sunday – that's a lot. For example, a month ago the average daily number of enemy attacks was 5-7… You can estimate how much the activity of Russian troops has increased,” the speaker said.
Shamshin noted that the enemy continues to put pressure in the Volchansk area. In particular, the Russian invaders are attempting to push the Defense Forces out of the territory of the aggregate plant on the northern bank of the Volcha River.
– They attack even at night. … One or two people in anti-thermal imaging ponchos stubbornly try to penetrate the plant's territory every night. Obviously, their command sets them the goal of gaining a foothold somewhere. They penetrate the plant's territory and hide in ruins or basements, but our aerial reconnaissance still finds such hiding places and, as a rule, they very often become mass graves for the Russians, – he added.
As Shamshin noted, the enemy is not achieving success in this direction. However, logistics on the northern bank of the Volcha River are significantly complicated due to the large number of enemy reconnaissance and attack drones.
