The offensive broke the Russian defence.

The Ukrainian armed forces continue their offensive in the Zaporizhzhia direction. Russian military bloggers claim that Ukrainian servicemen are not abandoning their attempt to advance south of Rivnepil and Staromayorske.

A Russian military blogger claimed that on July 10, the 34th Motorised Rifle Brigade allegedly "repelled an attack" by the AFU near Velyka Novosilka. And the occupants from the "Cascade" unit and another unidentified infantry formation are defending near Urozhayne, analysts at the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) inform.

The geolocation footage showed that the AFU conducted a mechanised offensive on July 10 and advanced 2km east of Robotyne, breaking the Russian defence.

Russian military correspondents claim that the Ukrainian defenders on western military equipment advanced north-east of Robotyne towards the positions of the 71st motorised rifle regiment.

Back on July 9, the geolocation footage showed Ukrainian defenders advancing south-east of Orekhiv towards Novopokrivka.

And the AFU, comprising up to 30 men, conducted a combat reconnaissance along the Pyatykhatki - Zherebryanka line.

Some Russian media assure that the Russian army deliberately abandoned its positions on this section of the front.

Yesterday, Russian military aviation carried out a series of strikes on the right bank of Kherson region.

There were also three laser-guided strikes with smart bombs against Beryslav district.

The head of the Mykolaiv RMA, Kim, said that on July 10, the enemy launched an Iskander-M strike and shelled Ochakiv from the territory of the Kinburn Spit. At the same time, the situation near the Antonivsky Bridge has not changed. Both sides are engaged in counter-battery warfare.
