🇺🇦🇷🇺 The 7th day(August 12th) of the Kursk Operation
Tactical Analysis🧵

🔸 Addressing some ORBAT changes first, we believe the 82nd has not been involved in fighting since Day 5
Instead the 24th Aidar Battalion is believed to have conducted the operation towards Korenevo but for now we'll leave it on the map until further information comes out.

🔸 The Ukrainian 92nd Brigade sent a grouping of troops to the town of Giri, likely due to bad intelligence, the grouping was ambushed and struck by a lot of firepower.
Its likely objective was the capture of the bridges to Belitsa. The grouping was hit very hard and severe losses were suffered although some vehicles managed to leave without too much damage.

🔸 With the deteriorating situation on their service routes and after days of heavy fighting the Russian 488th was not exactly in the best morale. so when Kozak 2s of 88th moved from the north their defense collapsed very quickly. The Russians got forced back from the northern area of the eastern district and were positioned around mirniy but we believe that as of today the Russians should have finally withdrawn from the town.

🔸 In Korenevo the Ukrainians have continued assaults, this time less ambitiously, although information on them is lackluster so I won't talk about them anymore.
