Russian invaders tried to force the Kurakhove Reservoir by boats and were repelled by the actions of Ukrainian paratroopers.
This was reported by Militarnyi with reference to the 46th separate airmobile brigade.
The invaders carried out an attack at night to gain a foothold in houses on the outskirts of the town. Ukrainian aerial reconnaissance detected the movements of the russians in advance and transmitted the coordinates to the operators of strike drones. When the invaders landed, the drones immediately struck, destroying the enemy forces.
Despite the successful defense at the reservoir, the invaders continue to advance in other Axes. Last week, russian troops entered the village of Dalne, dividing the Ukrainian defense into two parts. Because of this, the corridor for the withdrawal of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the villages of Uspenivka and Kostiantynopolske has been reduced to 5.5 km.
The occupiers have also intensified their actions north of the Kurakhove Reservoir, which was created to cool the Kurakhove TPP. The TPP itself had previously suffered from russian shelling and was dismantled for spare parts to repair other facilities.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, as of the morning of November 19, the russian invaders had lost another 1,610 people in the war in Ukraine. In total, the occupiers' losses since the start of the full-scale invasion amount to over 724,000 people.
