The assault units of the Russian Central Military District's 51st Army continue to tighten the encirclement around Myrnohrad (Dimitrov).
Inside the city, the offensive continues in the eastern and western districts. In the southern suburbs of the city, the 5th Motorized Rifle Brigade of the 51st Army not only captured the village of Sukiar but also cleared all Ukrainian forces from the village. The village is approximately 1 kilometer south of Myrnohrad (Dimitrov).
Russian forces are currently conducting intense bombardment on Myrnohrad (Dimitrov), especially with glide-guided bombs against identified Ukrainian defensive positions, command posts, and drone operators. The glide-guided bombs used include 250 kg, 500 kg, 1500 kg, and 3000 kg variants. Russian drones are also attacking Myrnohrad (Dimitrov) very fiercely - attacking any Ukrainian vehicles or personnel that show themselves. According to the Russians, if it can be resolved with firepower, they will never send in assault troops.
In short, Myrnohrad (Dimitrov) is experiencing the most intense firepower from the Russian military in over a year in the Red Army direction. And the reason for this is that the Russians hope to resolve the Ukrainian forces in Myrnohrad (Dimitrov) as quickly as possible and capture the city.
The Ukrainian forces still try to relieve the Ukrainian forces in Myrnohrad (Dimitrov). In the past 9 hours, the Ukrainian 32nd Mechanized Brigade that moved out from Gryshino and the Ukrainian 425th Assault Regiment stuck between the north of Red Army City and Rokynske have launched 9 counterattacks on Red Army City, including counterattacks using armored vehicles, but all were repelled by the Russians.
