Russian Telegram channels reported on this. According to the Russian military, the installation of concrete anti-tank structures took place without authorization and on a road used for rotation and volunteer travel. According to unconfirmed reports, approximately 40 Russian servicemen were killed, and another 40 were injured as a result of disorganized actions by Russian units.

Due to hasty attempts to organize defensive lines and build fortifications, the Russians are doing so in a disorganized manner and do not inform adjacent units of their activities. Some of the Russian military commanders are trying to shift the responsibility to the Ukrainian special services and present these incidents as sabotage, but more than one unit of engineering equipment is needed to transport and install such units. Nevertheless, this situation demonstrates the problems with information exchange in the Russian army, even on its own territory.

This section of the road is dangerous for Russian soldiers because of the constant activity of Ukrainian FPV drones, which is why the enemy tries to move at a speed of about 150 km/h.

Fortifications in the Belgorod region

Militarnyi previously reported the Ukrainian military destroyed a convoy of armored vehicles that was developing a breakthrough in the Ukrainian-controlled part of the Kursk region. A convoy of Russian vehicles advancing on the left flank of the Ukrainian group of troops was ambushed and stopped by tank fire. As a result of the successful attack, a VPK-Ural armored vehicle, a BTR-80 armored personnel carrier, a UAZ-452 vehicle, and a tank with a mine trawl were destroyed.

The equipment moved towards the settlements of Zelyonyi Shlyakh and Novoivanovka, developing its breakthrough in the defense of the Ukrainian troops.
