According to AVP , in the latest clashes, Russian units, with artillery support, were able to advance south from the Berkhovskoe reservoir, capturing a section of the railway between Yagodny and Bogdanovka. This, in turn, gave Russia control of an embankment up to two kilometers long.
This strategic offensive has put significant pressure on Ukrainian forces and forced them to retreat south of the railway. Now, Russian troops are advancing towards the Artyomovsky tree nursery, expanding their control and threatening Ukrainian positions in the village of Bogdanovka.
Russia is stepping up its offensive in Artyomovsk.
These events show that the Russian military is systematically regaining control of the areas north of Artyomovsk, erasing all previous gains by Ukrainian forces in the area. As a result, the risk that the Ukrainian Armed Forces could encircle Artyomovsk has decreased, something that the Ukrainian military leadership sought to avoid.
Despite recommendations from the US Joint Chiefs of Staff to abandon attempts to regain control of Bakhmut (Artyomovsk), the Ukrainian leadership reportedly ignored the advice, leading to the weakening of Ukrainian forces in the area and subsequent loss of control.
On November 8, the AVP website also reported on a successful operation by Russian paratroopers. Using the Kornet anti-tank missile system, this force destroyed an armored vehicle of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Artemovsk region. The success of the operation was posted by the Russian military on the official channel of the Russian Ministry of Defense.
According to the ministry, a drone operated by Russian intelligence officers spotted an armored vehicle in a forest near Artemovsk. Then paratroopers fired a guided missile from a Kornet system at a distance of about 5 km, destroying the armored vehicle.
Russian Lancet drone attacks and destroys AN/TPQ-37 counter-battery radar station.
North of the village of Alexandro-Kalinovo, a Ukrainian AN/TPQ-37 counter-battery radar station was also destroyed by Russian fire. The attack was carried out by a Lancet suicide drone operated by the Southern Group of Forces. This type of aircraft can hit targets at a distance of 20 km from the front line.
The successful destruction of the counter-battery radar showed the ineffectiveness of the air defense systems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine against the threat of Russian drones.
