Deep state explanation for their massive grey zone on the northern flank of Siversk. “Expansion of the gray zone in the Serebrianka area This is one of the largest gray zone areas on the front line, characterized by constant enemy pressure without specific consolidation or control of the territory. The enemy is detected literally throughout the gray zone, where they are being targeted. In particular, the Russians have been and continue to push from the Hryhorivka side along the Siverskyi Donets through Serebrianka and all the way to Dronivka. There are also constant assault actions by small infantry groups southward between Serebrianka and Siversk, sometimes involving motorcycles. The situation worsened with the loss of the Serebrianka forestry, where the enemy also uses the terrain to break through, especially in the Serebrianka area. According to the fighters, from their observations, the enemy does not aim to capture specific positions or settlements but simply tries to advance as far as possible into the territory, accumulate there, and move further. There is no purposeful consolidation in Serebrianka, where they even pass by the settlement or positions on motorcycles southward. Ukrainian fighters also help shorten the enemy's lifespan by constantly hunting and destroying them immediately upon detection. We have mentioned pilots on this section more than once, and they deserve credit for holding back the enemy, as there is a huge shortage of personnel to deploy and properly hold positions. Therefore, drone operators need to monitor the situation 24/7 and make efforts to prevent the enemy from accumulating. Unfortunately, the numerical superiority shows again, and for several days in a row, the Russians have been detected as far as Dronivka, where a gray zone has also appeared. A strange enemy tactic that does not involve consolidation on the ground but rather "stupid" rushing deep inside, but this is the reality, and on the other hand, it provides an opportunity to simply kill the enemy who senselessly rushes at the SOU fighters' positions.”

The answer to the Ukrainian territorial question already is in the Constitution of Ukraine. No one will deviate from this—and no one will be able to. Ukrainians will not gift their land to the occupier.

Russia appears to have diverted several thousand troops from occupied Ukrainian territory to counter the Ukrainian offensive in Kursk oblast, two senior US officials told CNN.
