Dariia "Hilka," commander of a UAV crew with the Typhoon special unit, shared this on Espreso TV."Yes, the situation in the Zaporizhzhia direction is somewhat complicated, but fully under control. Unfortunately, the enemy isn’t backing down and is actively attacking, but we’re holding them off. Some of their units have remained here since our counteroffensive, and new forces are also arriving. They’re switching tactics, and troop rotations are ongoing," said Dariia "Hilka."According to her, Russian forces have built a solid, layered defense in the occupied territory."The Russians have managed to set up a pretty strong, echeloned defensive line in the temporarily occupied territories. They really know how to dig in and build fortifications. Plus, the Zaporizhzhia region is mostly open steppe, with few settlements where we could hold ground. So what the enemy is building here is very real," she added.On July 15, the General Staff reported that 185 combat clashes took place across the front on Monday, July 14, with the highest number of battles occurring in the Pokrovsk direction.
