Russian forces have resumed activity in the Orikhiv sector of Zaporizhzhia region and, according to Ukrainian intelligence, may use worsening weather conditions to move infiltration and sabotage groups closer to Orikhiv.
This was reported during a television broadcast by Vladyslav Voloshyn, spokesperson for the Southern Defense Forces of Ukraine.
“It is worth paying attention to the Orikhiv direction, where the enemy has restored its activity over the past several days. This is mainly near Orikhiv itself, where, according to our intelligence, the enemy has received orders to use the worsening weather conditions, which meteorologists are currently warning about, to attempt to move infiltration and sabotage groups toward Orikhiv, closer to the city,” the spokesperson said.
According to Voloshyn, Russian forces also continue air strikes on Orikhiv and other settlements in the south, using guided aerial bombs on a daily basis.
“Over the past day, nearly a dozen guided aerial bombs were recorded hitting Orikhiv. Overall, in the south, the enemy carries out up to 25 strikes with guided aerial bombs every day and uses around 100 units of this type of weaponry daily,” he said.
