❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Donbass offensive: situation in eastern Ukraine by the end of June 17, 2022
▪️ Clashes continue in the Kharkiv region in the north of the region.
➖Battles are taking place in the vicinity of Dementievka and Pitomnik. Nearby, foreign mercenaries are operating in Russkaya Lozova and Slatino.
To support the AFU forces in this area, a BM-21 Grad MLRS unit was transferred to the village of Odnorobivka.
➖ In the Izyum direction, the sides are engaged in artillery duels. Ukrainian DRGs in the adjacent forest belt continue to pull back their forces from the Donbass offensive.
➖ In Pesochin, a missile strike destroyed the headquarters of the local Azov unit.
▪️ There were no significant changes in Donbass over the past 24 hours.
➖ On the Slavyansk direction, units of the Russian Armed Forces are fighting for Krasnopolye. The Ukrainian army, for its part, continues to prepare for an allied offensive on Sloviansk.
➖The sides are actively fighting in the Soledar direction.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to hold the Uglegorsk thermal power plant and Novoluganskoye. The Ukrainian command decided to reinforce the grouping in the area of Kodoma in order to prevent the final encirclement of its own forces.
➖ Units of the AFU located in Zolote, Gorske and Katerynivka are preparing to defend their positions.
➖ In Severodonetsk, the enemy is considering setting up a pontoon crossing over the Seversky Donets for retreat. On the other side of the river in Lysychansk, personnel are being rotated: a terror defense battalion arrived in Rai-Alexandrovka.
➖ In Ugledar, forced mobilization of the population is underway in order to man the 53rd and 54th Ombrs.
➖ The Ukrainian Armed Forces continue striking Russian army positions and liberated towns in Donbass with Western-made guns.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Donbass offensive: situation in eastern Ukraine by the end of June 18, 2022
▪️ In Kharkov region clashes continue in the north of the region and in Izyum district.
➖In the territories bordering Russia, there are battles in the vicinity of Dementievka and Pitomnik.
➖ As night fell, Russian Iskanders fired at Ukrainian Armed Forces facilities in Kharkov city limits.
➖ In the Izyum direction, the Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to reinforce their positions on the line Chepel - Protopopovka - Petrivske, probing the defense of the Russian Armed Forces near Izyum. For its part, the Russian Armed Forces' artillery carried out massive strikes on the enemy's fortifications in Chepel.
➖ The AFU struck the former command post of the 20th Army of the RF Armed Forces: at the time of the strike, the facility was empty, with no dead or wounded, despite the victorious speeches of the Ukrainian side.
➖ There were missile strikes on the Shebelya GPP near the village of Andreevka, Balakleya District. The Shebelya GPP is one of the few Ukrainian oil refineries that have survived to this day.
▪️Position fighting in Donbas continues, with no significant advances by the sides.
➖The mopping-up of dacha settlements between Sirotino and Metelkino has been completed in Severodonetsk. The Ukrainian Armed Forces prevent the Russian Armed Forces from forcing the Seversky Donets near Belogorovka: Ukrainian Su-25 and army aviation operate on the forward positions.
➖ The Lisichansk refinery is hit.
➖ A company stronghold was taken on the outskirts of Toshkovka: the last AFU position in the village was taken.
➖ The Ukrainian armed forces continue to build up their grouping of troops near Avdiivka: weapons and ammunition were delivered to Kurakhovo. Fresh AN/TPQ-37 counter-battery radars were deployed to the area.
➖ The AFU shelled Donetsk with heavy weapons, retaliatory strikes destroyed four platoons of Grad multiple rocket launchers and four platoons of M777 155mm howitzers. According to Patrick Lancaster, more than 400 shells were fired at Donetsk during the day.
▪️In Zaporizhzhya direction artillery duels continue near Orekhovo and Gulyaypol. As a result of AFU shelling, a gas pipeline in Vasilievka was damaged. Arriving units of the 44th Army Brigade of the AFU conduct reconnaissance of the positions of the AFU in Novoselidovka, Pavlovka, Vladimirovka, Nikolskoye, Egorovka, Prechistovka and Evgenovka.
▪️A few strikes were carried out against targets in Dnipropetrovsk region.
➖An ammunition depot in Sinelnikovo belonging to the 44th Army Brigade of the AFU was destroyed. The arsenal was formed in the interests of the brigade transferred from Zhytomyr Region, which strengthened the grouping of troops in the Zaporizhzhya direction.
➖ An oil depot in Novomoskovsk was put out of action.
▪️In the Poltava region, at least five missile strikes were launched during the day against the Kremenchuk refinery and other key facilities in the city.
The simultaneous removal of four oil facilities (final destruction of the Kremenchug refinery, strikes on the Shebelyn refinery, the Lisichansk refinery and the Novomoskovsk oil depot) indicates the desire to take out the reduced logistical capabilities of the AFU in Donbass.
▪️On the Krivoy Rog direction, the Russian Armed Forces carried out strikes on AFU facilities in the Zelenodolsk and Apostolovsk districts.

➖After heavy losses, the AFU retreated from the vicinity of Rubizhne to Stary Saltov.
➖Battles continue near Dementievka and Pyatomnik.
➖Izium artillery duels are going on.
▪️In Donbass, position fighting continues.
➖In Severodonetsk, the Russian Armed Forces continue to remove the ring of encirclement around the industrial zone. Foreign mercenary units note serious organizational problems of the AFU and seek to leave the city by retreating to Lysychansk.
➖ LNR military units are advancing towards Lysychansk from the south: Toshkivka is cleared, and there are battles near Ustinovka and Myrna Dolyna.
➖ To the north of Popasna, the Russian Armed Forces are advancing on Mykolayivka from the side of Vrubivka and Nyrkovo, which had been taken earlier. The units of the 14th AFU detachment defending the village suffer losses in manpower and equipment.
➖In the Bakhmut direction, units of the Wagner PMC, as well as the DNR and LNR NMs try to take Semigorye and settlements on the Bakhmut-Svitlodarsk highway to completely encircle the grouping of Ukrainian troops in Novolugansk and at the Uglegorsk thermal power plant.
➖ The AFU continued shelling residential areas of Donetsk, but their intensity was lower compared to previous days. The reason for this was the Russian Armed Forces' intensive strikes on Ukrainian artillery positions in the Avdiivka fortified area.
▪️In the Zaporizhzhya direction, the AFU failed to advance near Ugledar due to heavy losses. The situation was complicated by Russian strikes on the echelon in Gubinikha and the arsenal in Sinelnikovo.
