Footage released by Russian Wagner-linked telegram "Grey Zone" reportedly shows Russian VDV (Airborne) artillery striking a Ukrainian patrol near the Kreminna-Svatove front in Eastern Ukraine. It's likely that this takes place closer to the former.

The majority (if not all) of the most recent VDV footage that we've seen has been reported to take place in the Kreminna area. No further context was available. The Kreminna-Svatove front is an approximate 50km stretch in Luhansk Oblast, and a location for very heavy fighting in the dense forest. A Russian salient from Kreminna to the Southwest towards Lyman has developed over time, extending approximately 17km forward nearly to Tors'ke. I personally use the Institute for Study of War's (ISW) campaign map to follow the broader-scale changes in the FLOT. ISW (in my opinion) does a great job in citing their sources. See their campaign map here. We have no affiliation or relationship with ISW.
