Russian forces have released a video showing their infiltration into the Red Army city area, claiming to have entered the Shaktarsky district in the south of Red Army City. From the video, it appears that the Russian forces did not engage in combat with Ukrainian forces and even had conversations with the residents who remained in Red Army City. The residents who stayed behind said that the Ukrainian forces had forced him to leave, but he still chose to stay.
The fact that small Russian units were able to infiltrate the city indicates that the Ukrainian forces here are very short on manpower, resulting in significant gaps in the defense line. Previously, some Russian media reported that the 155th Mechanized Brigade, which was responsible for the defense in this direction, had been almost wiped out. If the Ukrainian forces do not quickly regroup to push the Russian infiltrating forces out, once the Russians establish a bridgehead, the Ukrainian forces in the southern part of Red Army City will face the danger of being cut off and surrounded.
