⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Wagner is storming #Spornoye - Unconfirmed⚡️

In addition to today's reports about the advancement of Wagner PMC in the industrial zone of #Artemovsk, they also report from the field that Wagner is storming #Spornoye near Ivano-Daryevka, recaptured by the Armed Forces of Ukraine a few days ago.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Boris Rozhin, briefly at 18:00⚡️

1. In the #Zaitsevo area and near the Artemovsk-#Dzerzhinsk highway, Wagner is amplifying. Reports that the enemy is withdrawing from Zaitsevo have not yet been confirmed.

2. Wagner is making small advances in #Artemovsk industrial zone. The enemy is taking casualties, the topic of clips complaining about inadequate command and heavy losses at the AFU has escalated again.

3. Street fighting in #Soledar. No significant advances. #Belogorovka and #Yakovlevka are under AFU control.

4. #Spornoye (or rather its ruins) is under the AFU. Wagner is storming it today and we will see how it goes.

⚠️ 5. The AFU advanced to #Belogorovka and at least part of the village is under the enemy (possibly the entire village, given the attempt to move towards #Kremennaya, which were repulsed).

6. #Yampol and Krasny #Lyman under the RF Armed Forces. Enemy SRGs continue to climb near #Shchurovo, #Dibrovo and #Yarovaya.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Soledar Direction at 15:00 on 11 Oct 2022⚡️

▪️ The #Soledar OTG command expects an active offensive by Russian troops on the #Kodema - #Kurdyumovka and #Klinovoye -Krasnaya Gora lines to further blockade #Bakhmut (#Artemovsk) from the north-east and south.

▪️ Government offices are evacuated from #Bakhmut itself to Chasov Yar. Signatures are being collected in some units of the AFU on the issue of distrust of the grouping's command.

▪️ Wagner PMC Fighters have reached the southeastern outskirts of #Bakhmut and established control of #Ivangrad in the course of fighting. Ukrainian formations suffered losses and withdrew to the #Klescheevka area.

▪️ Forty-three military personnel and one reserve platoon were also transferred to the #Klescheevka area to reinforce defences and restore positions. Wounded are being evacuated from #Ivanovskoye (#Krasnoye) with the help of armoured combat vehicles.

▪️ Wagner PMC units eliminated an AFU stronghold west of #Nikolaevka, which had interfered with control over a section of the Nikolaevka II - #Otradovka highway. In addition, a stronghold of Ukrainian units northwest of #Zaitsevo, which was liberated late last week, was taken.

▪️ AFU artillery and Mi-8 helicopters fire on #Ivangrad and Veselya Dolina to contain the advance.

▪️ In the #Spornoye area, units of the Wagner PMC captured an AFU stronghold on both sides of the #Verkhnekamenka - #Berestovoye road. The Russian forces managed to approach the site of the gas compressor station, where there were also permanent fire positions and equipped positions of the Ukrainian units. Further advance towards #Spornoye is hindered by a difficult mine situation.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦 ✈️ The AFU lost two Mi-8MSBs in 24 Hours⚡️

The Air Force has already lost two Ukrainian Mi-8 aircraft in 24 hours today. A couple of hours ago we identified the crash site of the Mi-8MSB in #Konstantinovka, and some time ago Daniil Bezsonov published a video of another downed UAV. A little later there was footage from the Ukrainian side.

Coordinates: 48.794467, 38.267915

The Military Intelligence channel makes a neat suggestion that the downed Mi-8 near #Spornoye may have belonged to Russian army aviation.

It was not!

The Mi-8 was flying along the route #Berestovoye - #Spornoye along the line of contact. After it was hit by a MANPADS air defence system, the aircraft was driven towards the Russian positions in #Nikolaevka.

Explanation:

▪️ as @lostarmour (thanks Kloch4) write on the forum, the helicopter is missing a DISS unit under the beam. So it could either be an Mi-8MSB-V VVSU, or a Russian aircraft of rare special configuration that simply has no business being on the front line;

▪️ Those versed in war specify that Russian Mi-8s do not fly to the line of contact alone: they are always accompanied by attack helicopters. The only exceptions are sorties by SAR teams, but the Air Force aircraft have not been shot down today.

▪️ The front line southeast of #Spornoye runs along the eastern edge of the road. Separate AFU units regularly make forays behind the leading edge and push through the Russian Armed Forces' defences in #Nikolaevka;

▪️ All Ukrainian Mi-8 aircraft of all possible modifications are used to provide fire support to the advancing units: they are operated both with machine guns and using "bushfire" launchers with rocket-propelled grenades.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ About the True Situation in #Bakhmut Direction at 8 Nov 2022⚡️

In recent days, unreliable information has appeared about the situation in the #Bakhmut direction. Therefore, I have contacted the guys on the ground and am reporting to you the true situation as of 8 November 2022:

▪️ Wagner PMC units have eliminated one of the two strongholds on the #Nikolaevka 2 - Gorlovka road section and advanced towards #Kurdyumovka;

▪️ Musicians also eliminated four AFU strongholds west of #Otradovka, advancing significantly towards #Andreevka and #Kleshcheevka;

▪️ The #Soledar suburb of #Bakhmutskoye was completely cleared; the Wagnerians joined their right flank with units of the 6th Cossack Regiment of the LPR People's Militia at the KNAUF-Gypsum factory;

▪️ The storming of #Belogorovka continues. Wagner PMC units expanded their control zone in the village to the north of the road. In #Belogorovka itself, AFU units have established a major stronghold - the advance is complicated by heavy mine contamination, private buildings with long-term firing points and dugouts connected by communication passages.

▪️ Fighting continues near #Berestovoye, #Spornoye, #Verkhnekamenskoye, to the east and southeast of #Bakhmut, as well as in the northern #Belogorovka area, west of #Lysychansk.
