The Ukrainian army continues to capture Russian land, with major battles ongoing in Belgorod

Ukraine had carried out cross-border attacks into the Belgorod border region, next to Kursk. Moscow said that Ukraine had attempted to attack over the border in the western part of Belgorod, close to the villages of Demidovka and Prilesye. Kyiv attacked with roughly 200 soldiers and five tanks, the Russian Defense Ministry said. Ukrainian milbloggers identified 237th Tank Regiment, 3rd Motor Rifle Division, and 177th Marine Infantry Brigade has the formations with troops deployed around Demidovka and Grafovka. The attack led initially by light infantry units advancing on foot through woods and farm fields has broken into the village of Demidovka some 5 kilometers inside Russia and held it against quick response forces sent to that sector. The Belgorod attack, repeating armed Ukrainian violation of Russia’s border, appears to be a much smaller operation, with Ukrainian forces having captured by Monday between 20-50 square kilometers of Russian real estate in the new incursion, battle reports said. Reports from both sides confirmed the Ukrainian success but conflicted over its scale. Russian propagandists write that the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation transferred "Akhmat", border guards and the 155th brigade of marines to Belgorod. Armed Forces of Ukraine use long-range strikes to complicate the logistics of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Last week, two strikes were carried out on the command posts of the enemy, which destroyed the means of communication. Z-channels claim that the attacks of FPV drones and HIMARS hinder the ability of the Russian Armed Forces to hold their positions in Belgorod. The pro-Moscow milblogger Gennadiy Alekhin wrote that the Ukrainian advance had turned the international frontier opposite Demidovka “into a giant gray zone” and that house-to-house fighting was in progress inside the village itself. Russian milblogger Boris Rozhin, in a Monday situation update, said: “The settlement of Demidovka is under Ukrainian control. Russian forces withdrew from the area, allowing the enemy to occupy it. Additionally, Ukrainians are clearing mines and removing “dragon’s teeth” barriers on the border. Russian forces are now counterattacking the settlement.” Alekhin claimed one of the attacking Ukrainian units was a light infantry formation called the Russian Volunteer Corps, a unit raised in Ukraine from Russian nationals opposing the Putin regime. Ukrainian milbloggers have reported 225th Assault infantry regiment, a crack outfit armed with US-made Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, and elements of the 414th Unmanned Aircraft Brigade a/k/a “Ptakhy Madyara,” one of Ukraine’s best-known strike drone units, are in the Belgorod sector and backing up attacks there
