Russian troops ramp up bombardments of a factory in Vovchansk after it was re-captured by Ukrainian troops, according to Vitaliy Sarantsev, Kharkiv Operational-Tactical Group spokesperson.

In his comments for Ukraine’s state TV, the colonel said that the situation in the Kharkiv regions remains tense, with the fiercest fighting centered around Vovchansk.

Constantly pounded by shelling, the recently reclaimed factory  though holds no “significant tactical value”, although Russian troops took it as a “serious blow,” said Sarantsev.

To wreck its site, Russian troops have deployed  TOC-1A heavy flamethrower systems and precision-guided air bombs.

The situation in Vovchansk remains one of the most critical in the region, as intense fighting continues.
