Part 8/14:
Fighting remains fierce particularly around the city of Picross, where Ukrainian forces are actively pushing to restore control over critical logistics routes. Ukrainian GUR units have reportedly landed helicopters with infantry, engaging Russian forces and attempting to break a Russian encirclement.
Counteroffensive efforts include advanced drone operations targeting Russian positions—drones have proven remarkably effective, with Ukrainian units downing or disrupting over 92% of incoming enemy UAVs. For example, the "Birds of Muar" unit claims to have eliminated over 8,000 Russian troops through drone strikes in just October, highlighting the asymmetric nature of warfare.
