In the border region of Belgorod, a Russian Air Force aircraft dropped a 3,000-kilogram FAB-3000 glide-guided bomb on Ukrainian troops hiding in the woods near Popovka. The reconnaissance drone responsible for observation and guidance captured footage of the massive blast wave created by the bomb.
Currently, the Ukrainian forces are engaged in another war of attrition in the Belgorod border area, launching multiple suicidal charges into several villages but being pushed back by Russian forces each time. This tactic has resulted in heavy losses for the Ukrainian army. Russian media reported that Zelenskyy ordered General Sirotsky to occupy several villages within Russian territory at all costs to use as propaganda to showcase to Western allies and offset the negative impact of the failure of the Kursk operation.
