Ukrainian troops thwarted a large-scale Russian offensive in the Novopavlivka sector, where three columns of Russians attempted to advance on local defenses.
The attack, carried out by units from the 425th Assault Regiment and the Russian 20th Army Corps, was stopped after several enemy vehicles and motorcyclists detonated mines while trying to cross minefields.

According to Valentyn Manko, head of the Department of Assault Units of Ukraine, the coordinated work of the defense forces made it possible to neutralize the offensive and inflict heavy casualties on the enemy. FPV drones and artillery strikes accurately targeted Russian troops, who were concentrated in a limited area, a strategic error that facilitated Ukrainian counterattacks.
Ukrainian resistance prevented the invaders from consolidating positions and maintained control of the region. In recent days, Ukraine’s military also managed to repel another large-scale Russian assault on the village of Mala Tokmachka, east of Orikhiv in the Zaporizhzhia region.
