Kurakhovo, Donetsk Republic - former Kiev regime stronghold falls. Defense Ministry statement:
📍 Over the course of 10 years, the Kiev regime & NATO countries transformed Kurakhovo into a powerful fortified area with a developed network of long-term fire points & underground communications. From the north, it is covered by a reservoir, which significantly limited the maneuverability of Russian assault units.
📍 To defend the city, the Ukraine amassed large forces, including nationalist formations & foreign mercenaries, reinforced with artillery and tanks. Among them are units of the elite 79th airborne assault & 46th airmobile brigades, as well as 33rd and 157th mechanized brigades.
📍 In total, the Ukrainian Armed Forces command concentrated 26 battalions with a total of over 15,000 servicemen to hold Kurakhovo.
📍 During the liberation, which took 2 months - Ukraine lost 80% of its personnel (more than 12,000 people), about 3,000 units of Western-supplied military equipment, including 40 tanks and other combat armored vehicles.
📍 Establishing control over this important logistics hub has significantly complicated the technical support of the Ukrainian Armed Forces group in the Donetsk direction, depriving the Kiev regime of the opportunity to fire artillery systems at the civilian population of Donetsk.
📍 After taking Kurakhovo, Russian troops enter 'operational space.' This will allow the pace of liberation of the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic to increase.
