More than a hundred combat clashes were recorded on the front today, which indicates a high level of tension and enemy activity since the beginning of the day
According to the operational summary of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine as of 22:00 on June 27, Ukrainian defenders with honor withstood regular attacks by Russian occupation forces, repelling 117 combat clashes along the entire front line. The largest number — 53 — fell on the Pokrovsky direction, where the enemy tried to break through the defense of Ukrainian units in the immediate vicinity of settlements and strategic positions. Military analysts deeply assess these actions of the Russians as targeted attempts to create tactical pressure and break through the Ukrainian defense in several segments along the contact line. According to the Ukrainian General Staff, enemy forces used 4 missiles for the attack and carried out 33 air strikes. They used 12 cruise missiles and 49 guided bombs, and also activated kamikaze drones - 1,375 such attacks were recorded in just one day. At the same time, the Ukrainian military managed to reduce the enemy's activity in their positions, successfully repelling five breakthrough attempts in the Yuzhno-Slobozhansk direction in the areas of Vovchansk, Figolivka and near Petro-Ivanivka and Dovgeny. In the Kupyansk direction, pro-Russian forces made five assault attempts in the directions of Pishchane, Kindrashivka, Novoplatonivka and Petropavlivka, but the Ukrainian defenders successfully repelled these attacks, not allowing the enemy to gain a foothold in their positions. In the Lymansky direction, the Russian occupiers attacked 17 times, trying to advance in the directions of Lypove, Shyykivka, Novosergiyevka, Ridkodub, as well as in the areas of Glushchenkove, Grekivka, Shandryholovye, and Novy Mir — all of these attempts were stopped by Ukrainian soldiers. Another hot front remains the Siversky direction, where Ukrainian defenders successfully stopped two enemy attacks near Ivano-Daryivka. In the Kramatorsk direction, the Russian occupiers tried five times to break through the defenses near Markovo, Predtechyny, and in the directions of Bila Hora, but without success. Internal fighting continues in the Torets sector, where the enemy tried to break into our positions 17 times in the areas of Yablunivka, Diliivka, Pleshchiivka, Oleksandro-Kalynove, Rusyny Yar, near Shcherbynivka and Novospassky - Ukrainian troops gave a worthy rebuff. The situation remains particularly tense in the Pokrovsky direction, where the enemy carried out 53 assault and offensive actions, trying to break through the Ukrainian defenses in the areas of Malynivka, Myrolyubivka, Promyn, Novoserhiivka, Udachny, Novomykolaivka, Troitsky and other adjacent settlements. The enemy's efforts have also intensified in the areas of Volodymyrivka, Myrnograd, Serhiivka, Myrne, Novopavlivka - here the Ukrainian troops are holding their defenses, despite the high level of enemy aggression. In the Novopavlivske direction, Ukrainian defenders managed to stop 10 attacks in the areas of Shevchenko, Fedorivka and in the directions of Zaporizhzhia, Mirne, Perestroika, Yalta and Komar, preventing the enemy from breaking through in strategically important sectors. At the same time, with air support, the enemy in the Orikhivske direction tried to attack Ukrainian positions near Kamyanske three times, but all these attempts ended in failure. In the Prydniprovske direction, the enemy tried to advance twice, but was defeated, which once again confirms the high level of resilience of the Ukrainian military in this sector. In general, the situation remains tense, but the Ukrainian defenders demonstrate a high level of combat training and endurance in the face of targeted Russian attacks, which made it possible to preserve the integrity and defensive capabilities of the front line.
