In Ukraine, which has been invaded militarily by Russia, fighting is intensifying in the south as well as in the east. Russia has announced that it will form a new force to counter Ukrainian tank units backed by Western military support, and it appears to be increasing its vigilance against Ukraine's reversal offensive.
Russia is continuing its military invasion in Donetsk Oblast in eastern Ukraine, and the British Ministry of Defense analyzed on the 10th that Russian troops are stepping up ground attacks on Mariinka, southwest of the regional capital Donetsk.
He pointed out that while the Russian military still prioritizes taking control of Donetsk Oblast, "Russia spends a lot of soldiers and military equipment for minimal territorial control."
In the south, a house was hit by a missile by Russian troops in Zaporozhye, the capital of Zaporozhye Oblast, on the 9th, and the Emergency Agency of Ukraine announced that a 50-year-old father and an 11-year-old daughter were killed.
The Russian Defense Ministry claims that some 7,9 tons of fuel storage facilities on the outskirts of Zaporozhye were destroyed by precision-guided missiles, and fighting in the south is intensifying as the Ukrainian side seeks to retake the territory.
Meanwhile, a senior official of the Russian Defense Ministry announced on the <>th that a new unit will be formed to counter the provision of tanks to Ukraine by Western countries.
It says it will train anti-tank units to study and destroy the capabilities of German, British and American main battle tanks provided to Ukraine.
Ukraine, which receives military support from the West, is poised to embark on a large-scale reversal offensive soon, and the Russian side seems to be increasing its vigilance.
