In the Lyman area, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are disrupting the occupiers' logistics and the buildup of reserves
In the Lyman sector, fierce fighting continues over logistics routes, which play a crucial role in supporting combat operations. At the same time, Russian forces are facing significant difficulties in restoring their combat readiness and building up the necessary reserves.
Both sides are well aware of the importance of logistics on the front lines.
“The battle for logistics continues in the Lyman direction. Both sides understand well that without a stable supply of ammunition to the front lines, personnel rotations, and logistical support, it is very difficult to conduct active combat operations,” Bendersky noted.
He emphasized that Russian occupiers are actively attempting to identify and attack Ukrainian supply routes using various types of strike drones. However, the Ukrainian military is delivering effective retaliatory strikes against the enemy’s logistics infrastructure.
“Therefore, the enemy is trying to identify and strike our supply routes using various attack drones, but our units are also actively targeting the enemy’s logistics, striking their vehicles, staging areas, and supply routes. This significantly hinders the enemy’s ability to maintain the necessary pace of combat operations and accumulate resources for further attacks,” the military official explained.
According to Bendersky, the Ukrainian Defense Forces are in control of the situation and continue to effectively carry out their combat missions.
He also reported that at the end of last month, there were signs that the Russian army was having trouble forming new assault groups.
“The situation in the Lyman direction remains active. At the end of last month, there were signs that the enemy was experiencing certain difficulties in amassing personnel for intensive assault operations,” Bendersky said.
According to him, the Russian command is currently attempting to compensate for losses by redeploying personnel from other sections of the front and rear areas. However, this does not indicate the creation of fully-fledged strike reserves.
“At present, the enemy continues to try to compensate for these losses by redeploying or reinforcing from other sectors and rear areas. This does not indicate the formation of a full-fledged or well-staffed strike reserve. A significant portion of the enemy’s units suffered losses in previous battles and require replenishment and restoration of combat capability,” the military official concluded.
Thus, the struggle for logistics remains one of the key factors in the Lyman direction, and the actions of Ukrainian defenders significantly limit the Russian troops’ ability to conduct new large-scale offensive operations.
This was reported by Serhiy Benderskyi, deputy commander of the “Unit A” brigade’s “Pomsta” unit’s border outpost for multiple launch rocket systems, on the program “Ukrainian Focus. Morning” on Slawa.TV.
Over the past 24 hours, 273 combat clashes took place on the front lines between the Ukrainian Defense Forces and Russian troops.
On June 4, the General Staff updated the map of combatoperations and recorded 279 clashes.
Earlier, the Main Intelligence Directorate reported on drones with a range of up to 3,500 km.
Ukraine’s unmanned systems forces reported the destruction of two Tu-142 aircraft and an Iskander operational-tactical missile system at a military airfield in Taganrog, Russia.
