The Russian occupation forces actions:
The enemy is shelling the positions of Ukrainian troops along the line of contact, fortifies its positions on certain axes, in particular, on the left bank of the Dnieper River, and actively conducts aerial reconnaissance.
In violation of the International Humanitarian Law, as well as the laws and principles of war, the adversary continues launching strikes at critical infrastructure and civilian residences.
During the day of 27th October, the adversary launched 15x air strikes and 1x missile strike, over 40x MLRS attacks. The attacks affected the settlements of Bilohirka, Nova Kam’yanka, Novohrednjeve (Kherson Oblast), Stepove (Zaporizhia Oblast), and Mar’inka and Pavlivka (Donetsk Oblast).
According to the updated information, the fire damage inflicted on the adversary’s s manpower and equipment in the previous days has been confirmed. Thus, 8x units of weapons and military equipment of various types were destroyed and up to 120x servicemen were wounded in Zaporizhzhia Oblast. On the temporarily occupied territory of Kherson Oblast, about 100x wounded occupiers were reported to be delivered to medical facilities.
In order to avoid panic among personnel, the command of the russian occupant forces uses every means in an attempt to hide the actual casualties.
