⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in Key Settlements in the #Avdeyevka and #Ugledar Directions at the End of 23 August 2024⚡️

🔴In #Konstantinovka - we continue to put pressure on the enemy not only in small groups.
🟡Since the beginning of the week, we have been moving forward slowly.

🔴In #Krasnogorovka - the task at the moment is to stretch the enemy's forces along the flanks.

🔴In #Karlovka - the positions of the AFU are disappearing before our eyes. House by house, with daily blows.
🟡The enemy's ability to hold on is drying up before our eyes. We are clearing the boundaries we have taken.

🔴At #Kalinovo - assault groups of the RFAF are on the approach.

🔴To #Marinovka - the enemy has transferred fresh forces, trying to strengthen the defence in this settlement.

🔴To #Novogrodovka - the enemy managed to transfer fresh forces, which slightly held back our advance.
🟡The antidote is already ready - we are pulling up additional artillery.

🔴#KrutoyYar, #KrasnyYar, #Nikolayevka - there are battles in the villages, they have not yet gained a foothold, but have confidently entered the boundaries of the settlements.

🔴#Grodovka -is still formally considered to be in #Ukraine. Here the enemy carried out rotations, using residential buildings for defence.
🟡Combat work is underway. It has not yet been possible to immediately encircle #Grodovka; the pressure on the enemy is growing proportionally.

📌 The Enemy began to use the tactics of frequent rotations, giving battered units a rest and trying to transfer fresh forces. The absolute opposite of our actions. It's worth taking a closer look.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Report for the Morning of 25 August 2024⚡️

🔴On the #Zaporozhye Front, without significant changes in the line of contact. Positional fighting continues. However, at the same time, reports continue to come in about the concentration of AFU forces and means on this section of the front. (Fig. 1)

🔴On the #Donetsk Front, fighting continues in #Konstantinovka, with Russian forces continuing to press the AFU defences.
🟡In #Krasnogorovka, the RFAF also continue to beat the Ukrainian garrison out of the settlement, and the clearing of occupied positions continues. In #Karlovka, Russian troops, supported by artillery, are conducting assault operations, there are advances.
🟡In #Novogrodovka, at least half of the village is under the control of the RFAF. There is fighting on the outskirts of #Kalinovo.
🟡In #Dzerzhinsk (#Toretsk), Russian troops are continuing their assault operations. There are advances. (Fig. 2)

🔴In #ChasovYar Direction, as a result of successful assault operations, the RFAF were able to advance in the eastern part of the town. (Fig. 3)

🔴On the #Kharkov Front, without significant changes. Fighting continues in #Volchansk and in the area of #Glubokoye. (Fig. 4)

🔴In the #Kursk Region, the AFU do not give up attempts to break into the depths of the region, but each of their attempts is unsuccessful. In some areas, the AFU cannot gain a foothold on the achieved lines, and, under pressure from the RFAF, they retreat.
🟡However, low coordination and lack of communication between Russian units remains a serious problem. It is also impossible to say that the offensive potential of the AFU has been exhausted at the moment. The Ukrainians are actively feeding their group with fresh reserves.

🟡The RFAF cover #Kalinovo, going out to the flank and rear of the Karlovka Grouping.
🟡The #Pokrovsk - #Karlovka road is under fire control.
🟡The situation for the AFU is systematically deteriorating here. After the fall of #Grodovka and #Novogrodovka, the battles for #Mirnograd and #Selidovo can be expected to begin soon.
🟡#Karlovka will be abandoned by the enemy in the near future due to the threat of encirclement.

🔻6.#Dzerzhinsk:

🔻12.#Kursk Direction:
🟡The enemy continued its offensive actions, trying to break through at #Korenevo, #Kauchuk, #VerkhnyayaLokna and in the area of #Martynovka.
🟡He did not achieve decisive results anywhere, having suffered heavy losses.
🟡The RFAF, in turn, recaptured #Olgovka.
🟡It is too early to talk about stabilisation of the situation.
🟡The enemy continues to transfer reserves to the #Kursk direction, hoping to reverse the prevailing trends and maintain the pace of the slowed offensive.

📌 In general, the RFAF maintain an operational initiative in most areas. The most problematic areas (for the AFU) are the #Avdeyevka direction, the #Dzerzhinsk district and the #Ugledar section.
🟡Nevertheless, the enemy is betting on the #Kursk offensive, hoping to succeed before the front in the southwestern part of #Donbass begins to collapse.
