He shared the information on Espreso TV.

"The situation in the brigade's area of responsibility is controlled, but remains difficult. Weather conditions are changing, and both the enemy and us are adapting. Russia is accumulating forces and bringing in reserves. We see Russian soldiers approaching with heavier equipment and gear, possibly fortifying their positions and preparing for winter with better insulation," noted the head of training for the 13th "Khartiya" Brigade of the National Guard.

According to him, over the past three days, Russian forces have not conducted any assault actions, and no Russian vehicles have been spotted. However, there has been a significant amount of relocations.

"As they are in the process of relocating, we constantly hit them, so they hide in holes along their routes. A large number of holes have been dug by Russian soldiers. If they don't have time to jump into a hole when they are hit, they hide under trees. And when we find them in areas where there is nowhere to hide, they fall down and pretend to be dead or lie still, hoping not to be seen. But this tactic of the Russians does not work," Anton Bayev summarized.

  • On November 6, the spokesperson for the Kharkiv military unit, Lieutenant Colonel Yevhen Romanov, said that the number of military engagements in the northern part of Kharkiv region had decreased by almost a third in recent days due to deteriorating weather conditions. Russian troops are using less equipment, including drones.
  • On November 7, the Ukrainian Armed Forces' General Staff reported that 148 combat clashes were recorded on the Russian-Ukrainian front over the past day. Russian troops were most active in the Pokrovsk and Kurakhove directions.
