🟡 Situation in the Lyman area ℹ️ Recently, there has been much discussion and questions about Lyman. In particular, there are reports of strikes recorded in the eastern part of the city, which logically suggests that the Russians are infiltrating there. Increased activity against the city has been ongoing for some time, and given the successes of the Muscovites in Kostiantynivka, Lyman is becoming an increasingly important target. And numerical superiority combined with low density of defensive positions is causing enemy infiltrations, which is hardly news anymore. 🏹 However, it is worth noting certain details that will help better understand the situation. The largest zone of enemy activity and control is the red and gray zone of the Sribna forestry. They move there, hide, entrench, and from there attempt to push deeper. In Lyman itself, as before, there is ongoing activity and reports of strikes in the eastern outskirts, which is marked in yellow and has a corresponding gray zone. There were also reports of strikes in the blue zone, but they are not yet systematic, so there is no reason for a gray zone yet. Ukrainian pilots are doing well with the disposal of Russian garbage that is being sent to slaughter. 🔴 However, the situation in Yampil and Ozerne is extremely concerning. We hope that higher command will pay attention to this sector and take appropriate action so that we do not lose a bunch of people for nothing. 📍 We are monitoring the situation on this sector and will definitely keep you informed of all changes!
