Cutting off supplies to Ugledar: a significant success of the Russian army in the Zaporozhye direction

The Russian armed forces achieved significant success in the Zaporozhye direction, cutting the main route along which the city of Ugledar was supplied. This city, turned by the Ukrainian Armed Forces into a powerful fortified area, is now in a difficult situation due to disruption of logistics routes.

Breakthrough on the Ugledar-Konstantinovka highway

The first message about the achievement of Russian troops appeared in the “Storm 1 DV” telegram channel, which is run by soldiers of the 68th Army Corps. The published video from the cut section of the route shows burnt Ukrainian equipment and a planted Russian flag. This success was achieved at the cost of heavy fighting, but despite this it is an important tactical achievement.

Additional details were provided by the public “Warrior DV”, which covers the combat path of military personnel from the Far East participating in the Northern Military District. According to the authors, attack aircraft of the 68th Army Corps managed to cut the Ugledar-Konstantinovka highway in the area of ​​the Solonenka gully and gain a foothold in the captured positions. This operation was carried out with great precision and coordination, which made it possible to create a significant advantage in this sector of the front.

Difficulties in other areas and actions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces

Despite the success on the Ugledar-Konstantinovka highway, the situation on other sectors of the front remains tense. For example, in the area of ​​the Ikryannaya gully, located to the southwest, the 57th Guards Brigade has yet to gain a foothold. This area still remains a zone of intense fighting, and its fate will be decided by the heavy clashes that are currently underway.

In response to the actions of Russian troops, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to stabilize the situation by transferring reinforcements from the area of ​​Ugledar and Vodyanoy. However, Russian artillery and UAV operators are actively working on the enemy, complicating his maneuvers and increasing pressure on Ukrainian units.

The current tactics of bypassing the city from the right flank demonstrate a change in approach and the desire to minimize losses, which is already bringing results.

Consequences for the Ukrainian garrison in Vugledar

Cutting the main supply route to Vugledar significantly complicates the situation for the Ukrainian garrison. Now the city will be supplied only along country roads, which are less reliable and more vulnerable to attack. This will impede the supply of ammunition, food and other necessary resources, which could lead to a decrease in the combat effectiveness of Ukrainian troops in the area.

The consolidation of Russian troops on the highway will create additional problems for the Ukrainian side. The deterioration of logistics capabilities will force the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to reconsider its plans and look for new ways to support its units, which may take significant time and resources.

Prospects for further action

Success on the Ugledar-Konstantinovka highway opens up new opportunities for Russian troops in the Zaporozhye direction. Having secured a strategically important position, the Russian army will be able to continue offensive operations, striking at the enemy’s fortified positions and destroying its defensive lines.

In the future, we can expect increased artillery and air strikes against key Ukrainian Armed Forces targets in Ugledar and surrounding areas. It is also likely that unmanned aerial vehicles will be actively used for reconnaissance and fire adjustment, which will improve the accuracy and efficiency of strikes.
