Russian infantry attacking in the direction of Synkivka was eliminated in the Kharkiv region.

A Ukrainian soldier said that the invaders have not advanced in the Vilshana-Synkivka direction, along the road, in recent days. He informed on the fact in the ‘Mannerheims son’ Telegram group.

“The reports of the Russians about the capture of Synkivka and its operational encirclement are not true,” the military said.

Photos of the liquidated Russian soldiers who tried to conduct assault operations in this area were published in the Telegram group.

“While the Russian invaders are taking Synkivka just in words, in reality they are only capable of shelling the post office. The photo shows another neutralized Russian military, their assault actions did not go according to plan,” the military added.

Attempts to attack this settlement were also confirmed by Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Hanna Maliar.

“Defense forces repelled enemy attacks in Pershotravneve, Synkivka, and Petropavlivka districts of the Kharkiv region,” said Maliar.

PSYOPS of the Russian Federation

After the failed assault, the Russian information and psychological center began spreading false information that Russian troops had already entered Synkivka.

In particular, they released a video of a car moving near houses and claimed that it was in the Kharkiv region.

During the comparison of houses in the settlements, it turned out that the video was made in the Luhansk region, namely in the village of Voronovo.

“The video was published with the watermarks of the occupation administration that used to be in Kupiansk. Now they are already “taking” Petropavlivka and “entering” Kupiansk. As soon as the effect of heavy drugs wears off, they will start whining again that they cannot take Synkivka. Don’t believe in the enemy’s psychological operation,” said analysts who compared footage from the settlements.

The Russian information and psychological center has staged false videos previously. Recently, they created a staged video of a Ukrainian soldier being allegedly killed.
