Ukrainian assault troops from the 425th Separate Assault Regiment "Skelia" have cleared the village of Yehorivka of Russian troops in the Oleksandrivka Axis in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. The video of the operation was filmed by the regiment and shared by the Ukrainian Army's Center for Strategic Communications on 26 October.

This comes are Russia has earlier tried to expand its offensive operations in southeastern Ukraine into the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. The village sits on the tip of the Russian incursion into the oblast from neighboring Donetsk Oblast — a prong of the broader offensive that has stalled.
