**Deck**: Ukrainian channels report another major Russian mechanised attack near Zolotyi Kolodyaz, involving more than ten armored personnel carriers, tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, and troops on light vehicles and motorcycles, following earlier assaults toward Dobropillya.

Ukrainian sources report a new large‑scale Russian mechanised assault in the Zolotyi Kolodyaz area, adding to similar attacks recorded a day earlier toward Dobropillya.

According to these Ukrainian channels, the attacking column near Zolotyi Kolodyaz included more than ten armored personnel carriers, three tanks, three BMP infantry fighting vehicles, and dozens of other personnel moving on light vehicles and motorcycles.

The armoured vehicles reportedly managed to reach as far as the targeted locality before coming under fire. The available accounts do not include verified information on losses or territorial changes.

This reported assault indicates that Russian forces are again concentrating tanks, armored personnel carriers, and other vehicles into a single thrust, rather than relying only on small, dispersed groups. For Ukrainian defenders in the sector east of Dobropillya, facing such a formation means engaging multiple armored platforms and mobile infantry at once.

The attack near Zolotyi Kolodyaz, coupled with the previously reported mechanised push on Dobropillya, points to sustained pressure along this portion of the front. How often columns of this size reappear, and how many vehicles are confirmed destroyed or disabled, will help show whether Russian commanders judge these tactics worth repeating.
