The intensity of enemy attempts to advance in small groups on the Kramatorsk axis increases during deteriorating weather conditions. Enemy infantry mostly move during darkness or twilight — “in the gray zone”.

This was stated on Army TV by Captain Ivan Harapko, Senior Officer of the Communications Section of the 45th Separate Artillery Brigade named after General Myron Tarnavskyi.

“The enemy’s tactics have not changed — they try to advance in small groups, taking advantage of worsening weather conditions. But they are being contained and repelled, so the situation is tense but under control”, — he said.

According to the officer, the intensity of enemy infantry advances increases during poor weather.

“Usually up to five people, most often in the dark or, as they say, ‘in the gray zone.’ The intensity is quite high — they constantly try to do this. But as soon as the weather worsens and drones cannot fly, the intensity increases accordingly”, — Harapko explained.
