Situation on Zaporizhzhia front explained by military

That is according to Vladyslav Voshyn, Spokesperson for the Southern Defense Forces, who spoke on a televised broadcast, Ukrinform reports.

"The enemy has stepped up assault actions in the Vremivka sector using small assault infantry groups. These are sometimes supported by armored vehicles or armored groups. However, the enemy's buildup here is not sufficient for a large-scale offensive. Instead, the goal is to conduct continuous assault actions, trying to penetrate deeper into our defenses and seize positions. Ukrainian Defense Forces are largely repelling these attacks and working to stabilize the line of contact."
