The numbers are worse for moscovia than the quiet version suggested, and Biletskyi just made it official: a corps-level operation erased a prepared Russian foothold under a media blackout.
Third Army Corps Confirms the Clearing Operation
Novoselivka, Oleksandrivka, Yarova, the outskirts of Korovyi Yar, and Serednie itself are back under Ukrainian control. This was done under a media blackout, which is how it should be done.
No flag-waving content operation, no advance spoilers. Just infantry, drones, and artillery doing the work while Russian command tried to figure out why its forward positions stopped answering.
The Scale
75 square kilometers cleared of infiltration forces. Another 10 square kilometers de-occupied outright. The Russian 20th and 25th Armies took a hit to their combat capability that they cannot quickly replace.
Around 1,500 soldiers lost at this stage, over 12,000 drones destroyed, and hundreds of armored vehicles, artillery systems, and motor vehicles burned or captured. This war could expand.
a corps-level operation that erased a prepared Russian foothold.
The Logistics Angle
Unmanned systems units cut the supply lines while the ground operation moved. The result: Russian fuel and lubricant operations were relocated outside Ukraine entirely, to the Voronezh region.
The pipeline was dismantled. The depots were moved. Ukrainian strike drones made forward basing impossible, and admitting this confirms the fact.
The units named by Biletskyi include:
- The 60th Separate Mechanized Brigade
- The 125th Territorial Defense Brigade
- The 3rd Separate Assault Brigade battalion tactical group
- The 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion
- The 25th Anti-Tank Battalion
- Attached forces from the 66th Mechanized Brigade
- The 85th Tactical Group of the 8th Special Operations Forces Regiment
- The Artan unit of GUR
- The 10th DOZOR Mobile Border Guard Detachment
Vivaldi Has Four Seasons
Biletskyi addressed the open-source speculation about the Chornyi Zherebets River and made one thing clear: this operation is called Vivaldi, and Vivaldi has four seasons. The first one.
The implication is not subtle.
