🇷🇺🇺🇦 Special Military Operation Chronicles
for March 17, 2024

In the past 24 hours, Ukrainian drones simultaneously attacked targets in eight regions of Russia. The raid targets are primarily oil refineries, as the enemy aims to cause maximum damage.

In the Slobozhansky direction, continuous attacks have been ongoing for nearly a week with the objective of capturing border settlements in the Belgorod region. Over the past 24 hours, battles have taken place on the outskirts of Kozinki. Additionally, the Russian Armed Forces successfully downed a Mi-24 helicopter near the village of Lukashovka in the Sumy region.

Moving to the Donetsk direction, Russian troops are steadily advancing further into Pervomaisky - their progress is substantiated by footage showing Ukrainian formations.

In the Zaporizhia direction, a significant event was the liberation of the village of Mirnoye near Gulyaypole: despite enemy counterattacks, Russian Armed Forces personnel maintained their positions.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 🎞 Special military operation chronicles: events of the week of March 18 - 24, 2024

▪️ Over the past week, Russian troops launched a series of combined attacks on enemy targets in the so-called territory of Ukraine. For the first time in a while, a raid was carried out on Kyiv, hitting several enterprises.

▪️ On Friday, the Russian Armed Forces launched a mass strike on energy facilities in ten Ukrainian regions for the first time since the spring of 2023. In Kharkov, three city substations were affected, along with the main generating stations in the region - CHP-5 and Zmievskaya TPP.

▪️ In the Zaporizhia region, the DneproGES was under fire: two missiles hit the central and western part of the turbine hall of GES-2. Two others struck a dam, damaging rail tracks, two gas pipelines, and overhead line supports.

▪️ Ukrainian formations, in turn, carried out several attacks on Russian rear targets. In the Saratov region, enemy drones were intercepted on approach to the Engels airfield.

▪️ In Samara, a Ukrainian drone attacked the Kuibyshev oil refinery, causing a fire at the facility. This marked the 15th enemy attack on fuel and energy complex facilities in the past month.

▪️ The AFU launched a mass strike on the Crimean Peninsula, using at least 12 tactical aircraft. In Sevastopol, targets included the Sevastopol Bay, the former building of the Black Sea Fleet, and civilian infrastructure.

▪️ Throughout the week, the border areas of the Belgorod region also suffered. Dozens of civilian objects were damaged in the region, resulting in at least ten civilian deaths and over 20 injuries.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Special Military Operation Chronicles
for March 29, 2024

Russian troops once again initiated a series of attacks on rear areas within the territory controlled by the Kyiv regime. The focus was on energy infrastructure facilities, particularly targeting the Kremenchug Hydroelectric Station in Poltava Oblast. Explosions also took place at similar facilities in other regions.

Simultaneously, Ukrainian forces continued shelling border regions, including settlements in Belgorod Oblast. In Belgorod, a drone struck a residential building, resulting in the death of one civilian.

In Bakhmut sector, the enemy launched unsuccessful counterattacks towards Ivanovsky (Krasny), while Aerospace Forces aircraft conducted multiple strikes on targets in the vicinity of Chasov Yar and Konstantinovka.

In Avdeevka sector, the Russian Armed Forces successfully adjusted the front line configuration east of the Tonenke - Vodyane line. The offensive is ongoing towards Umansky. The deployment of Russian robotic platforms armed with weapons was also observed in the area.

In Donetsk sector, assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces entrenched themselves in the center of Georgievka, while the opposing forces retreated to prepared positions on the premises of the Selkhozkhimiya enterprise.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Special Military Operation Chronicles
for April 2, 2024

For the first time since the commencement of the SMO, Ukrainian forces conducted a drone raid on the territory of Tatarstan: targeting oil refineries in Yelabuga and Neftekamsk, as well as an industrial facility in the special economic zone "Alabuga."

Simultaneously, the Russian Armed Forces launched strikes on targets in the rear areas of Ukraine. Explosions were reported in Dnepropetrovsk, and one attack damaged a substation in Kirovograd.

In the Avdeevsky sector, Russian forces engaged Ukrainian troops along the Durnaya River, securing a position on the southern outskirts of Semenovka. They also made advancements to Berdychi, while the AFU relocated some of their forces to Novobakhmutovka.

In the Bakhmut area, Russian troops are pushing towards Chasiv Yar, which is only a few hundred meters away in a straight line. Near Krasny, the AFU tried to destroy a bridge using a mined tracked robotic platform.

On the Vuhledar front, clashes took place at the first line of dacha development in the Mashinostroitel gardening partnership north of Novomikhailovka.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Chronicles of the Special Military Operation
for April 3, 2024

The Russian Armed Forces continue to carry out strikes against identified targets in the front-line zone of the Kharkiv region and in the territory of the temporarily occupied part of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), while the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) have reduced the intensity of shelling the Russian border area.

In the Seversk sector, positional battles are taking place on the approaches to the chalk quarry dump east of Belogorovka, as well as in the area of the filtration station. The enemy is assembling a troop group in the nearby rear, likely in preparation for a defense breach.

In the Bakhmut sector, Russian troops are advancing towards Chasiv Yar from the eastern side, launching a heavy artillery strike on AFU positions in the Kanal microdistrict. There are also engagements in the Stupki-Golubovskie forest zone.

In the Avdiivka sector, clashes were observed along the Semenivka - Berdychiv line, with rocket artillery supporting the Russian Armed Forces. To the west of Tonenke, the Russian Armed Forces are advancing towards Umansky.

In the Zaporizhia sector, the enemy is establishing a second line of defense in the Orekhov area. Russian troops, in turn, are actively and effectively using Lancet missiles, including against Ukrainian tanks.

In the Kherson sector, Ukrainian marines are holding positions in Krynychky. The group is resupplied by air with equipment dropped from drones. Simultaneously, the AFU have deployed over 60 attack drones to the front line.

for April 6, 2024

Russian troops initiated a series of attacks on enemy targets in Kyiv and Kherson regions. In Kharkiv, two MLRS installations were destroyed by a missile strike, and in Zaporizhia, the impact was observed at the repair shops of the Motor Sich plant.

In the Bakhmut direction, Ukrainian units are retreating beyond the Seversky Donets - Donbass canal on the eastern outskirts of Chasov Yar, having mined the approaches to the water barrier.

Fierce battles for control of the northern outskirts of the village continue in the Avdiivka area in Berdychiv. Russian units are attacking the enemy towards Yasnobrodovka.

In the Donetsk sector, Russian troops are advancing in the center of Pervomaisky. To the south of Pobeda, battles are ongoing along the T-05-24 highwayKostiantynivka and further to Vuhledar.

In the Kherson area, Ukrainian formations continue to redeploy manpower to the island zone of the Dnipro delta, setting up observation posts and shelters.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Avdiivka direction: liberation of Solovyovo
situation as of 1:00 pm on April 25, 2024

🔻Immediately after the success in Novobakhmutivka, units of the Russian army quickly liberated the village of Solovyovo south of Ocheretyne, advancing along the road from Novobakhmutivka.

▪️Currently, the Russian Armed Forces are clearing the remaining enemy forces, while the majority of the grouping fled in the direction of the settlement of Sokol. From there, the AFU are firing at our troops.

▪️The liberation of Solovyovo against the backdrop of fighting on the western outskirts of Ocheretyne creates very bleak prospects for the Ukrainian formations, as Solovyovo is located on the Ocheretyne gully, which was a natural fortification.

❗️After the completion of the clearing operation, the Russian troops may push Ocheretyne further, attacking the AFU positions from the south, as well as advance along the hedgerows and the gully towards Novopokrovske, which will also create a threat to the remnants of the enemy in Berdychi.

If the current pace is maintained, the AFU will most likely retreat from the western outskirts of the village to more advantageous positions on the line of Novopokrovske - Novosilka 1st - Umansky.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Avdiivka direction: liberation of Semenivka
situation as of 8:00 pm on April 26, 2024

After the liberation of Solovyovo and Novobakhmutivka, the Russian forces continue to develop their success north of Avdiivka.

▪️During the day, the Russian Armed Forces were able to push the enemy out of the village of Semenivka: footage has appeared online of the flag being installed on one of the semi-destroyed houses in the center of the settlement.

▪️The remnants of the AFU infantry, under artillery and drone fire, retreated from the northern outskirts of the village westward towards Novopokrovske. The forest belts adjacent to Semenivka have also partially come under the control of the Russian Armed Forces.

▪️The Russian troops also managed to advance in Berdychi: at the moment, fighting is taking place on the westernmost outskirts of the settlement. However, the enemy is unlikely to be able to hold positions there for long due to its retreat from Semenivka.

The next line of attack for the Russian Armed Forces will most likely be the forest belts in the area of Novopokrovske - Novosilka Persha, where Ukrainian formations are now hastily building up their defenses.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Avdiivka direction: liberation of Arkhanhel'ske
situation as of 12:00 on May 4, 2024

After clearing Ocheretyne and Keramik, Russian forces completed the operation to liberate the village of Arkhanhel'ske. Combat operations in the direction of the settlement began a week ago, with advance groups of special forces units entering it immediately after the clearing of Ocheretyne, but full control was only established overnight.

▪️The offensive was carried out in several stages, with simultaneous reinforcement of groups both through the gully from the direction of Ocheretyne and through the fields. On May 3, other groups were brought up from the direction of Keramik, which completed the operation to encircle the village and effectively expel the enemy from the settlement.

▪️Footage of the destruction of fleeing Ukrainian formations was published the day before: it shows the organized retreat of AFU personnel under the fire of Russian artillery. Such a video has already caused an outcry in the Ukrainian information space, demotivating enemy units operating in other sectors of the front.

▪️Clearing of the fields south of Arkhanhel'ske has also been completed: the enemy abandoned their positions and retreated.

📌At the moment, Russian units are digging in and consolidating on the occupied lines, bringing up reserves and building logistics through Ocheretyne and Novokalynove. Reinforcements are being transferred to the area of responsibility of the 1st Army Corps of the Russian Armed Forces to develop the offensive potential.

Judging by publications in the Ukrainian segment, the General Staff of the AFU is confident that the plan of the Russian Armed Forces is to deliver counter-strikes through the fields with a bypass of Toretsk and New York towards Kostyantynivka and the closure of the cauldron from the direction of Klishchiyivka.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Deployment of "Fire Brigades" and Hunting for AFU Recon Groups
What is known as of the end of August 8, 2024

By 6 PM, the Russian grouping of troops (forces) began clearing the breakthrough zone and eliminating the consequences. This task is primarily assigned to special forces units, as well as special operations forces groups. In addition, there have already been reports of the deployment of units from the "African Corps" (most likely, detachments from the Krasnodar Territory). The main efforts continue to be concentrated in the Korenevo and Sudzha districts.

Due to the fog of war, lack of objective control personnel, as well as "soldier's radio", the situation was only fully clarified by the end of the day: the previous advances of the AFU with the control of certain areas of the territory are explained by the activity of Ukrainian recon groups.

📍Ukrainian recon groups tied down Russian checkpoints in combat and bypassed them, entering as many empty settlements as possible. Due to confusion and control problems, the scale of the enemy's advance was exaggerated, which played into the hands of sowing panic.

🔻In the Sudzha district, after building up the grouping in Bolshoye Soldatovo, the clearing of the highway began.

▪️Ukrainian formations maintain stable control over Goncharovka and western Sudzha. Footage of looting of houses and removal of stolen goods has appeared online.

▪️In eastern Sudzha, according to fragmentary information, there is a focal presence of territorial defense units and Russian troops. At the same time, the work of AFU recon groups is also noted there, whose task is not to capture and control the administrative center, but to sow panic and achieve a media effect.

▪️In the morning, Ukrainian mobile recon groups bypassed eastern Sudzha and went further along the highway. In the evening, Russian forces engaged a Ukrainian unit in Martynivka, while simultaneously clearing the forest area and surrounding villages.

🔻In the Korenevo district, attempts to occupy the administrative center actually turned into attempts by the AFU to quickly clear the strongholds and capture Korenevo. After repelling them, the main AFU forces dispersed in the area of the breakthrough section.

▪️In Snagost, Russian troops began clearing, trying to push Ukrainian groups out of this area.

▪️Online, footage was recorded of Ukrainian groups in Novoivanovka and Lyubimovka - these are the nearest settlements to Korenevo, which are under the conditional control of the enemy.

📌The AFU began engineering the terrain on the so-called "Surovikin line", building a fortified area there. Most likely, tonight they will attempt to drag engineering equipment further and begin equipping another line, from which it will be more difficult for the AFU to be dislodged.

The combat potential of the AFU grouping is far from exhausted: the introduction of the second and third echelons is expected in the near future. At the same time, the danger to other sections of the Kursk direction is not ruled out.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Situation in Sudzha and Defeat of AFU Armored Group in Belovsky District
What is known as of the end of August 12, 2024

In the Kursk direction, Ukrainian formations are attempting to expand their penetration deeper into Russian territory. At the same time, more and more footage is appearing online demonstrating the successful destruction of AFU armored vehicles and personnel by Russian troops.

🔻In the Korenevo district, in the vicinity of Snagost, where the enemy previously attacked Russian positions, the situation is shrouded in the "fog of war". The situation also remains unclear in Krasnooktyabr'skoye, but there have been no reports of enemy units entering the settlement.

▪️Russian troops cleared Kremyanoye, where the presence of AFU units had previously been recorded. During the battle, the enemy lost at least one Roshel Senator armored vehicle, abandoned by its crew to the south of the settlement. It is worth noting that in this case, the Ukrainian advance detachment was likely ambushed by Russian troops and, without the support of heavy equipment, was defeated.

▪️In the area of Korenevo and Tolpinskoye, Ukrainian formations launched an attack supported by armored vehicles in an attempt to breach the defense of Russian troops in this sector. The enemy's assault was successfully repelled by Russian units, while the AFU, apparently, retreated to their initial positions.

🔻The situation in the Sudzha district remains consistently tense. Today, videos from the enemy side appeared on the network, demonstrating the presence of AFU units in the central districts of Sudzha, as well as in the area of Martynivka - and, according to reports from the scene, the enemy was spotted in the settlement during the day.

❗️Nevertheless, to declare the complete control of the AFU over Sudzha, based solely on footage from the enemy side, would be premature, as at least some of the videos were recorded several days ago. At the moment, there is no official information from the Russian authorities and no footage of objective control from the Russian Armed Forces.

🔻In the Belovsky district, Russian units are engaged in battles in Plekhovo, with no reports of the settlement falling under AFU control. At the same time, it is known that the enemy has occupied Spal'noye, through which Ukrainian mobile groups subsequently penetrated deeper into Russian territory.

▪️In the morning, equipment of Ukrainian formations was spotted in the area of Girya. According to the footage, the enemy was advancing from the southwest, from the direction of Kamyshnoe. As we noted earlier, the size of the armored group that broke through to the settlement was larger than initially assumed.

Nevertheless, the attack on Girya resulted in the most significant single-time losses of personnel and equipment for the enemy: at least seven BTR-4E armored personnel carriers were destroyed, with one of them captured by the Russian Armed Forces as a trophy. One Ukrainian pickup truck was also destroyed, and an unspecified number of enemy personnel were eliminated.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Pokrovske Direction: Advances by the Russian Armed Forces in Several Sectors
Situation as of 5:00 PM on August 18, 2024

While Ukrainian formations continue to attack in the Kursk Region, the operational crisis of the AFU in the Pokrovske Direction has been steadily worsening over the past few weeks. Over the past few days, Russian Armed Forces units have been able to expand the zone of control towards both Novohrodivka and the Karlovo Reservoir.

▪️Northwest of Zhelanne, Russian troops have occupied Zhuravka and have begun fighting in Kruti Yar. Apparently, the main objective of the Russian Armed Forces in this sector is the Novohrodivka Mine No. 3, located to the west, which is situated on high ground.

To the south, assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces have also expanded the zone of control, but due to the lack of objective control footage online, it is difficult to establish the front line. Here too, Russian servicemen are trying to break through to the Kotliarevska Mine (formerly "Rossia"), which was previously used by the AFU as a deployment point for equipment and communication systems.

❗️There are also reports of the Russian assault troops reaching the outskirts of Selidovo, but it is not yet possible to confirm this information. The city has been hit by several artillery strikes, and FPV drones are now targeting targets within the city limits.

▪️The Russian troops have achieved significant successes on the southern flank, where at least five settlements have come under the control of the Russian Armed Forces. Among them is Zavetne, from the center of which videos have appeared of the Russian flag being raised.

From the line of Novosilka First - Yasnobrodivka, Russian units have straightened out the zone of control along the shore of the Karlovo Reservoir. On the opposite side, Ukrainian formations still maintain control over Ptychye.

▪️The Russian Ministry of Defense also reported the liberation of the settlement of Svyrydonivka, located on the northern flank. However, according to our information, the village was occupied by units several days earlier.

🔻Over the past few weeks, the situation for Ukrainian formations in the Pokrovske Direction has significantly deteriorated, and the overall description of the situation for the adversary is often reduced to interjections. The scale of the advance of Russian troops also demonstrates the cost of the AFU offensive in the Kursk Region.

At the same time, the Ukrainian command is already actively preparing Selidovo and Myrnohrad for defense in case of further advancement of the Russian Armed Forces - from August 19, a virtually round-the-clock curfew has been introduced in the cities, and reserves are being redeployed there.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Rout of the AFU in Russkaya Konopelka
What is known as of the end of August 22, 2024

By evening, fierce battles continue in several sectors in the Kursk Region.

🔻In the Glushkovo District, the enemy is increasing the number of strikes on crossings over the Seym River and settlements south of the river. Apparently, the AFU will attempt an offensive in this area in the near future. This is evidenced by reports of increased UAV strikes on various targets in the region.

🔻In the Korenevo District, fighting continues for Krasnooktyabr'skoye, where the enemy reached in the first days of the offensive but failed to consolidate. At the same time, the scale of the attacks by Ukrainian formations in the vicinity of Snagost' is becoming clearer. As we predicted, the enemy has passed through Apanasovka and at least temporarily occupied the 10th October tract.

Additionally, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported the destruction of an enemy group in two armored vehicles near Skryl'evka. There was no large concentration of the AFU observed in this area. Mechanized groups were spotted in the area of Zhuravli, but there is almost no information about battles in the Durovo - Obshchiy Kolodez' - Kalinov triangle.

🔻In the Sudzha District, clashes are ongoing, but there are no reports of the liberation of settlements on the Internet. In the area of Russkaya Konopelka and the settlement itself, a large enemy group was destroyed. Based on footage that appeared online, as a result of a successful ambush and subsequent drone strikes, the enemy lost several armored vehicles and a large number of infantry.

At the same time, there is no information on whether the village was cleared. In any case, the Ukrainian formations suffered heavy losses as a result of a relatively short-lived battle.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Battles in the Olhovka area and strikes on Ukrainian armor
What is known as of 6:00 PM on August 25, 2024

In Kursk Region, the Russian forces continue to contain the enemy's onslaught, inflicting significant losses on Ukrainian formations along the entire line of contact.

🔻In Korenevo District, the Russian Armed Forces have restored control over Olhovka, which had been the site of fierce battles several days ago. Apparently, after suffering heavy losses in equipment and manpower in the village and the surrounding area, the AFU were forced to withdraw.

Approaching Korenevo and Zeleny Shlyakh, two BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles were destroyed by FPV drones. The AFU continue their attempts to advance directly into Korenevo itself, but all their attacks are successfully repelled.

🔻In Sudzha District, fighting continues in the area of Malaya Loknya. All attempts by the enemy to enter and consolidate in the village have been thwarted, and it remains under the control of the Russian Armed Forces. In the area of Martynivka and Russkoye Porechnoye, there are ongoing clashes.

The sector is seeing an increase in the intensity of artillery strikes on Russian positions, which is associated with the redeployment of additional guns by Ukrainian formations from other parts of the front.

🔻The Russian forces continue systematic work to destroy air defense systems and radar stations in Sumy Region. UAV operators struck an ST-68 radar of the AFU near Shevchenkovo in Sumy Region using a Lancet kamikaze drone. In the morning, a Buk-M1 air defense system was hit in Gritsenkovo.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: AFU Advance in Korenevo District
What is known as of 11:00 on August 27, 2024

In Kursk Region, Ukrainian formations have launched a series of attacks in Korenevo District since yesterday and managed to expand their control zone in several areas.

🔻In Glushkovo District, enemy drone strikes continue - the power substation on the outskirts of Glushkovo and Russian military vehicles in the village of Rzhava were attacked by drones. At the same time, the AFU are still trying to disrupt supplies in the area.

🔻The situation remains most tense in Korenevo District. The enemy recently tried to advance along the Blyakhovets River, occupying Gordeevka and Vnezapnoye. Now, Byakhovo and Viktorovka have come under AFU control. The village of Uspenovka, which remained deep in the rear of the AFU and whose status was unclear, has now apparently been captured by the enemy.

▪️Between Vnezapnoye and Kulbaki, based on objective control footage, several AFU armored vehicles were destroyed some time ago, although there were no previous reports of fighting in this area.

▪️Now it appears that the enemy has taken control of another road to Snagost and can increase pressure on Korenevo, as well as advance westward deeper into Glushkovo District along the border.

The latter option raises concerns, as the remaining intact crossings are located north of Tetkinо in the Karyazh area. And now the AFU can advance from east to west south of the Seym River, trapping the Russian Armed Forces in a trap formed by the river and the border configuration.

▪️In addition, east of Korenevo, according to objective control data, a Ukrainian armored vehicle was destroyed. However, it is unclear whether the enemy maintains a presence in the forest belts or if the wreckage appeared in the early days of the AFU's offensive in this area.

🔻In Sudzha District, strikes continue on identified enemy armor groups - one of them was routed in the vicinity of the village of Cherkasskoye Porechnoye, which was confirmed by objective control footage.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Situation in Korenevo and Sudzha Districts
What is known as of 7:00 PM on August 27, 2024

By evening, the situation in Kursk Region has somewhat stabilized, but remains quite tense. Russian forces are actively using drones and artillery to strike detected enemy groups.

▪️In Glushkovo District, Russian troops are preparing to repel a possible Ukrainian offensive along the border. Due to the enemy's strikes on crossings over the Seym River, Russian engineering units are deploying new pontoons in Zvannoe.

▪️In Korenevo District, fighting continues west of Vishnevka in the area of the railway track. Northeast of the occupied Snagost, the Russian Aerospace Forces conducted an air strike on enemy positions in the forest belt, and in Kremyanoye, Russian artillery shelled a Ukrainian armored group of several vehicles. A Ukrainian command and staff vehicle based on an M113 armored personnel carrier was also hit.

▪️In Sudzha District, west of Kruglik, drone operators destroyed enemy equipment parked along the road leading towards Bolshoye Soldatskoye.

▪️Strikes by the Russian Armed Forces continue on identified AFU positions deeper into Sumy Region as well. Thus, in the area of Sumy, a precise strike with an Iskander OTRK destroyed a Ukrainian HIMARS MLRS, from which the enemy had previously shelled the territory of Kursk Region.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Situation in Korenevo and Sudzha Districts
What is known as of 1:00 pm on August 28, 2024

In Kursk Region, a decrease in the intensity of attacks by the enemy, who has focused efforts on holding occupied territories and engineering the fortification of positions, is observed.

▪️In Glushkovo District, the situation did not change overnight. The AFU are not abandoning attempts to advance west of Apanasovka, but all attacks have been repelled by Russian troops so far.

▪️In Korenevo District, the enemy tried to attack Komarovo with a group of two armored vehicles, which came under the strike of Russian FPV drones.
Northeast, "Upyr" kamikaze drones destroyed several more pieces of Ukrainian equipment hidden by the enemy in forest belts.

In the area of Matveyevka and Olhovka, fighting continues with varying success. East of Kremyanoye, the crew of an FPV drone "VT-40" destroyed an AFU tank that had moved to a firing position.

▪️In Sudzha District, the active work of the Russian Armed Forces to reduce the combat potential of the AFU also continues. In Russkoye Porechnoye, a drone destroyed an AFU "Kazak" APC, and in the occupied Zaoleshchanka, the Russian Aerospace Forces aviation destroyed a parking lot of Ukrainian formations' equipment.

Despite contradictory information about the status of Spalnoye, reports from the scene indicate that the settlement is under the control of the Russian Armed Forces, with fighting continuing west of the village.

▪️Last night, enemy aviation struck the positions of the Russian Armed Forces in the border town of Tetkinо. In addition, in the vicinity of the Kursk NPP, unexploded HIMARS rockets were found on the ground, some of which were shot down by on-duty air defense systems.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Situation in the Kursk Region as of the end of September 1: Counterattacks near Olhovka and Martynivka

In the Kursk Region, the highest activity of clashes continues to be observed in the Korenevo and Sudzha districts.

🔻In the Glushkovo district, the enemy continues to strike at the crossings being built by Russian troops, but so far has not attempted to violate the state border. For example, in the area of Zvannoe, the enemy destroyed another pontoon crossing.

🔻In the Korenevo district, there are battles for Komarova, where the presence of the enemy remained on the eastern outskirts. Meanwhile, artillery and aviation are striking Vyemka and Snagost. Another area of heavy fighting remains Olhovka, where counterattacks continue. Attacks by the AFU are also periodically recorded in the direction of Kremyanoye, but so far no changes in control zones have been recorded.

🔻In the Sudzha district, on the line Kruglenkoe - Pogrebki - Orlovka, the fighting continues. At the same time, footage from this area is rather contradictory, and the advance of Ukrainian formations cannot be ruled out.

The situation is different east of Sudzha. According to our information, the enemy is transferring reinforcements to the Martynivka area to continue attacks in the direction of Bolshoye Soldatskoye. Some time ago, the Russian Armed Forces were able to expand the control zone in the Kruglik area and ambush several enemy armored vehicles with a landing party, with the battlefield remaining in the hands of the Russian troops.

However, based on regular reports from the Russian Ministry of Defense about strikes on Cherkasskoye Porechnoye, and attacks by the enemy on this line further northeast, the settlements of Pravda, Ivashkovsky, Zazulevka and Kubatkin were previously occupied by the enemy.

To the south, in the Plekhovo area, the rotation of enemy units and the pulling up of mortars are recorded. At the same time, fighting continues in the vicinity of the settlement of Borki, but without changes in the control zones both within the village and in the neighboring Spalnoye.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Destruction of HIMARS MLRS by Russian troops and AFU advance in the Malaya Loknya area
Situation as of 6:00 PM September 2024

In the Kursk Direction, Ukrainian formations are consolidating their hold on previously occupied territories, including deploying radar surveillance infrastructure. At the same time, the Russian Armed Forces are searching for and destroying targets in the Kursk and Sumy Regions.

🔻In the Glushkovo District, Ukrainian formations did not conduct offensive operations. Russian troops are ensuring stable supply of the grouping in this sector, using pontoon crossings on the Seym River.

🔻In the Korenevo District, the AFU launched attacks towards Komarovka and Korenevo, without significant success. Russian artillery struck personnel concentrations in Apanasovka, Snagost and Vishnevka, likely to disrupt the enemy's preparation for new attacks in this sector.

🔻In the Sudzha District, Ukrainian formations, according to available data, were able to slightly expand their control zone in the vicinity of Pogrebki and Malaya Loknya. Judging by the geography of Russian artillery strikes, the Russian Armed Forces had previously abandoned positions in these villages to avoid the threat of encirclement by the enemy.

▪️However, it is premature to claim that the AFU have established stable control over these settlements - the situation in the sector is shrouded in the "fog of war". At the same time, Russian artillery and aviation are actively striking assault groups and armored vehicles of the opponent.

▪️Northwest of Zaoleshanka, Russian UAV operators struck a radar station of an unidentified type, likely deployed to track the operation of Russian drones or artillery. As a result of a direct hit, the station was destroyed.

❗️The fact that Ukrainian formations are deploying a radar surveillance system in the occupied areas indicates the AFU command's plans to consolidate in the Kursk Region, continuing to allocate significant human and technical resources to this sector.

🔻In the Sumy Region, Russian troops struck several important enemy targets with missile attacks. North of Samotoevka, the Russian Armed Forces destroyed three HIMARS MLRS launchers, using the Iskander OTRK. The loss of these systems will temporarily reduce the strike capabilities of the AFU, including in terms of impact on Russian communications.

▪️In the area of Novaya Sech, Russian troops "covered" a Buk-M1 air defense battery, disabling three launchers and a mobile command post.
