The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has reported that a Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group had infiltrated the outskirts of Dobropillia in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, but Ukrainian troops have already wiped them out, and the Russians' claims of controlling the village do not correspond to reality.

Quote: "Russian propaganda is now very actively spreading fakes – supposedly they control Dobropillia near Huliaipole in Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

The occupiers' informational provocations do not correspond to reality.

In essence, a Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group had infiltrated the outskirts of the village, taking advantage of the weather conditions.

As of now, this group has been destroyed, and the settlement remains under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine."

Details: The General Staff added that three Russian servicemen were wiped out as they approached the settlement, and "two others (likely the suicide troops tasked with displaying Russian flags in the village they supposedly captured)" were killed shortly afterwards.

The General Staff also published a video showing Ukrainian soldiers from the 33rd Separate Assault Regiment carrying out the mop-up operation.
