Russian invaders triple the intensity of assaults in the Huliaipole direction

The enemy has resorted to moving alone due to effective Ukrainian strikes on infantry clusters

In October, the invaders tripled the number of assault attempts in the Huliaipole direction compared to the previous month. Occupation forces changed their movement tactics, attempting to infiltrate Ukrainian defensive positions in small groups or one by one. This was reported by Ukrinform citing Air Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, according to the portal PromPolitInform.

In the area of responsibility of the 7th Rapid Reaction Corps of the Air Assault Forces, the russian forces continue attempts to increase their personnel presence. The invaders use civilian transport to deliver personnel to the front line.

Changes in enemy tactics

Due to constant fire engagement of russian troop concentration areas, the invaders are forced to adjust their infiltration methods. Instead of the usual infantry groups of two or three soldiers, the enemy is increasingly trying to move alone. Such actions lead to a loss of communication between soldiers and their command, and leave russian troops without proper supplies.

Geographic scope of hostilities

The most intense situation is currently observed near the settlements of Hirke, Zaliznychne, Tsvitkove, and Huliaipolske. These areas are adjacent to Huliaipole, which the invaders are trying to use as a zone for resource accumulation and a staging ground for further offensive operations towards Zaporizhzhia. In addition to regular troops, the enemy is actively using mercenaries from Asia and Africa on this sector of the front.
