Three bridges are blown across the Seimas River: when the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation fall into the surroundings near Kursk

The undermining three bridges across the Seimas River in the Kursk region means that the Armed Forces will remain there for a long time. The Ukrainian control zone in the Russian region this week can exceed 1,500 square kilometers, the military analysts interviewed the focus. The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue special operations in the Kursk region: by August 19, it became known about the seizure of several villages: Apanasivka, sleeping, bison and promotion to Olgivka.

There was a video of how the soldiers of the 501st separate battalion of the Marines of the Armed Forces filmed the flag of Russia in Apanasivka. When it happened until it is specified. The Armed Forces on the night of August 19 hit the last bridge across the Seimas River in the Kursk region, as a result of the impact, three spans were broken. The injured bridge is located in the area of ​​Karyzh village of Glushkiv district.

The Russian side did not report the attack on the cities, the Ukrainian military also did not comment on this data. Earlier, the Ukrainian forces destroyed two bridges near the settlements Glushkovo and called. The destruction of all three bridges will stop the normal supply of parts of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, now they will receive a provision and reinforcement only.

The units of the Russian army, which stand south, risk being in the "boiler", and the area of ​​their environment will be almost 700 square kilometers, writes the edition "Censor. NET". According to the coordinator of the group "Information Resistance", military expert Alexander Kovalenko, if the Armed Forces really destroyed all three bridges across the Seimas River, then in fact the entire Glushkivsky district will be in isolation.

"Only south of the Seimas River in the Armed Forces will still be attached to 250 or more square kilometers of the territory. The Russian invaders have already departed from the right bank Focus. Warriors from the Russian Federation also confirmed the "organized retreat" of Russia's army to the east shore of the Seimas near Tetkino. The residents of the surrounding settlements were allegedly evacuated, and two bridges in Tetkin and the reaped-up "blew up" in the approach of the Armed Forces.

"I am not surprised that soon Tetkine, Ryzhivka and the whole Glushkivsky district will pass under the jurisdiction of the Defense Forces of Ukraine. The northern plot of the Seimas is a line of defense, without bridges it is almost impossible to force it. In case of cutting of logistics. The Armed Forces control area in Kursk region, according to Kovalenko, will exceed 1,500 square kilometers this week. This area is larger than the occupied Russian territory in Ukraine since the beginning of 2024.

The Armed Forces movement will continue to the E-38 highway, the main logistics artery in the Kursk region. The blasting of three bridges shows that the Armed Forces are going to fix themselves in the Kursk region for a long time. The next stage is the erection of defense lines along the Seimas River, says military expert Dmitry Zhmaylo. The natural obstacle, as well as the Siversky Donets - Donbas channel in a time ravine, will help the Armed Forces to restrain attacks.

It is not possible to cross the channel in the time ravine: the invaders are moving back under the fire of artillery. "In total, about 2,500 Russian soldiers can get into the Glushkiv district of Kursk region. The Russian forces, according to the observations of the American Institute of War (ISW), are now giving a greater priority for Pokrovsk's capture, as well as the advancement to the west and southwest of Donetsk.

These areas of the front will allow you to move more to the borders of Donetsk region. The Deep State Analysts Team points to the successes of the Russian army in Donetsk region in the area of ​​sandy, boring, Mykolaivka, Zaliznyansky, Novozhelanny, in Neplivka and New York. The fighters of the 46th separate airmobile brigade reported on August 18 about the capture of New York by Russian units.

The military operation in the Kursk region prompted the Russian command of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation to transfer to the region up to 11 battalions and four groups of troops from other areas of the front. According to Dmitry Zhmaylo, it is difficult to speak about the future exchange of territories between Russia and Ukraine.

The Kursk operation broke the plans of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation to increase the number of military in temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories. The Kremlin will pause a negotiated track to restore reputation. Russia has already removed part of the forces from Kramatorsk and Zaporizhzhya. But on the approaches to Pokrovsk there is a dense urban building where the Armed Forces will be easier to fix.

In September 2024, the enemy will not have enough forces to assault the city, he predicts. The reserve colonel, an expector of the General Staff of the Armed Forces Vladislav Seleznev in communication with focus, is not sure that Russian President Vladimir Putin will go for exchange of territories. In the Kremlin, they still believe in the possibility of breaking the resistance of the Armed Forces.

"It is not necessary to hope that Moscow will come out and invite Kiev to liberate the Kursk region in exchange for Ukrainian lands in the south or east. Russia emphasizes that it always plays a long time. expert. Recall that the British newspaper The Times wrote that if Putin refuses to negotiate with Ukraine and insist on its terms, the Armed Forces will continue the offensive in the Kursk region.
