The commander of the 3rd Assault Brigade explained why the Russians manage to advance quickly on the front.

The Russian army is advancing quickly on the front thanks to a large number of KABs, whose forces are superior, and the not fully prepared and not very motivated personnel of the Defense Forces of Ukraine. This was reported by the commander of the anti-tank battalion of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade, Oleh Romanov Romakha, in an interview with Tsn.ua.

And also an important factor is management. We have a problem in that there are very-very many small units. This needs to be formatted into divisions. Possibly also into such larger, more manageable units. And taking, for example, a section of 30 km of the front, so that only one organism with one commander, who is responsible for their direction, occupies it. That's how I see it. Well indeed, yes, it looks sad, but we must not forget with whom and how much we are fighting

In Oleh Romanov's opinion, the Defense Forces of Ukraine show decent results if you look at the enemy's losses.

He is also coming to an end, and I think they also have some problems with their personnel. Because we increasingly see that after the Defense Forces of Ukraine skillfully began to cut out their "eyes" in the sky in the form of "Orlans" and other observation means, we started destroying them with our FPVs. So their reconnaissance drone operators went into assault actions as well, were thrown. And this amuses me a lot

The village of Levadne has been captured by the Russian army, but measures to restore the position of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are currently being carried out there.

The Russians carried out one missile strike in the last 24 hours, 60 airstrikes using 102 KABs, more than 550 kamikaze drone strikes, and over 3,500 shellings of our troops' positions and settlements using various types of weapons.

According to the ISW report, the Russians have already advanced east of Vuhledar and in the Pokrovske area.
