⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ War Map and the Situation on the Fronts on the Evening of 30 Nov 2022; pub. 0:05⚡️

💡 And again a day of important statements. The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, spoke about the situation in #Ukraine and suddenly announced that the country's 404 casualties since the start of the Special Operation amounted to over 100,000 people.

Of course, the shocking statement was quickly cut out due to the information being too "sensitive" as reported by Zelensky's office. It is an interesting situation, especially against the background of NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg's speech where he reminded that if #Ukraine loses, membership of the alliance can only be dreamed of.

⚔️ The Situation on the Fronts over the past 24 Hours

⚫️
#Svatovo - #Kremennaya Direction:

The AFU attempted to attack our positions near #Novoselovskoye LPR, but were pushed back by Russian forces to their initial positions. During the unsuccessful attack the enemy lost ten tanks, one BMP, two APCs and one SAU. The same fate befell the militants near #Ploshchanka, #Chervonopopovka and #Zhytlovka DPR.

⚫️ #Artemovsk (#Bakhmuts) Direction:

The Ministry of Defence reported that #Andreyevka was completely liberated from the militants. In addition, #Belogorovka, north of #Artemovsk, and Pershe Travnya, to the south, have been fully liberated.

Two US AN/TPQ-37 radars were destroyed in the areas of #Minkovka and Chasov Yar, and a Ukrainian Su-25 was shot down over #Artemovsk.

⚫️ #Ugledar Direction:

During the day, the militants tried to counterattack our positions near #Novomikhailovka, #Novodonetskoye and #Novoselka, but all enemy actions were suppressed. Two BMPs, two APCs, a MT-LB and four vehicles were destroyed in the fighting.

👏 Good news from the home front. The LPR's acting head Pasechnik said that the almost wiped out #Popasna will be partially restored, but it will be restored. The main reason is the strategic importance of the city, because it is the largest junction of the first class of the Donetsk railway. Without this hub, it is impossible to restore railway links to #Russia's new territories.

♦️(2/2) AFU not willing to surrender #Bakhmut:

Russian troops are advancing in #Artemovsk. At the same time, news of the "collapse of the Ukrainian defence" has repeatedly emerged. Is the Ukrainian command ready to abandon the town or does it plan to hold it despite losses?

There is no collapse of enemy defences. The enemy has been forced to retreat south of #Artemovsk, but maintains the integrity of the front north of #Kurdyumovka, relying on the entrenchment in #Kleshcheyevka and the Seversky Donets - Donbass canal. At the same time a second line of defence is being built at Chasov Yar.

The pace of our offensive here is slow, which, however, is offset by the heavy losses that the Wagner PMCs and the RF Armed Forces inflict on the #Artemovsk group (according to Ukrainian and Western statements, from 500 to 800 killed and wounded per day). In #Artemovsk itself, fighting continues for #Opytnoye and in the industrial zone on the eastern outskirts.

Without capturing #Opytnoye there can be no hope of a direct assault on #Artemovsk. The AFU will not surrender the city for nothing, which is why reinforcements, including those withdrawn from other directions, are being rushed here. The loss of #Artemovsk will have severe consequences for the AFU, identical to those after the loss of #Popasna.

To secure #Donetsk, we need to move west:

If #Artemovsk is liberated by the Russian army, will this reduce the threat to #Donetsk in terms of artillery shelling of the DPR capital?

Partly, as the capture of #Artemovsk will force the AFU to rebuild its defences in #Donbass, but it is important to understand that until #Maryinka and #Avdeyevka are captured, shelling from barrel artillery will continue in its current mode. Stopping the shelling of #Donetsk requires serious movement west of #Donetsk towards #Krasnoarmeysk, where #Krasnogorovka, #Selidovo, #Kurakhovo and so on must also be taken.

So this is not an easy task. Even so, #Donetsk would remain within range of long-range MLRS and long-range artillery, but of course it would be much more difficult for the AFU to organize massive shelling.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🚧 Defensive Structures and AFU Positions in #Bakhmut (#Artyomovsk)⚡️

From #Bakhmut there are more and more videos of defensive structures being erected in the built up area. We have watched some of the videos and geolocated the objects caught in the frame, as well as the locations of Ukrainian formations:

Near the square by the House of Culture at the intersection of Mira Street and Vasyl Pershyn Street, anti-tank hedgehogs have been installed. A few days ago, machinery was also standing nearby, placed specifically close to the houses to avoid direct hits from shells.

Coordinates: 48.5869010, 38.0024251

Nearby, on nearby Independence Street, engineers are digging trenches right on the pavements for firing squads:

Coordinates: 48.587613, 38.003848

From the southwestern part of the city the artillery of the AFU is working. One of the positions is located on Student Street near the building of the unfinished Islamic Centre.

Coordinates: 48.5820278, 37.9715000

These are just isolated examples: the actual number of firing points, long-term equipped shelters and anti-tank barriers in the city is far greater.

However, even these clearly show that the Ukrainian formations are not planning to simply leave #Bakhmut. Contrary to the occasional reports that the AFU are allegedly withdrawing from the town, they are only preparing it for defence.

🩸The Ukrainian militants will leave the town only if they are threatened with encirclement. Otherwise it will be stormed with fighting in the built-up areas and heavy destruction, as in #Popasna, #Severodonetsk and #Mariupol.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ War Map and the Situation on the Fronts in the Evening of 3 Jan 2023; pub. 0:05⚡️

🎯 The Russian Aerospace Forces struck #Druzhkovka last night, killing up to 120 Ukrainian militants, as well as foreign military equipment and ammunition, according to the Defence Ministry. This action can partly be considered a response to the shelling of the #Makeyevka vocational school by the AFU. The events are similar, but the reaction to them in the media is very different. After #Makeyevka, there was an instant information storm in our channels. At the same time, nothing happened after the strike on #Druzhkovka. The Ukrainian reaction turned out to be rather restrained. And there are reasons for that - militants of the AFU have been dying both in the locations and elsewhere since 2014. And it goes without saying that residents of 404 are not surprised and hysterical about such an order of things. The biggest problem is that soon we will become more tolerant of losses. All the more so if such mistakes are repeated.

⚔️ The Situation on the Fronts in the outgoing 24 Hours

♦️
#Svatovo - #Kremennaya Direction:

The Russian Army has worked on militant positions in the #Ivanovka and #Berestovoye districts of #Kharkov Oblast. Also in the area of #Novoselovskoye and #Tabaevka, two Nazi SRGs were destroyed. In addition, four AFU assault detachments in the areas of Chervonaya Dibrova LPR and #Serebryanka, #Grigorovka, #Novosadovoye DPR were hit by heavy flamethrower systems. And in the area of #Stelmakhovka LPR an enemy SRG was destroyed.

♦️#Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut) Direction:

"Orchestrators" continue their offensive in the direction of #Popasna - #Artyomovsk, knocking the enemy out of the forest plantations and occupying the militants' abandoned lines. Despite weather conditions hampering UAV aerial reconnaissance, the fighters succeeded in detecting and successfully targeting an Ukrainian ammunition depot and TPQ radar.

♦️#Ugledar Direction:

Russian artillery hit AFU units in the areas of Zolotaya Niva, #Novodonetskoye and #Prechistovka DPR. Over 30 Nazis, two armoured vehicles and three pickup trucks were destroyed.

💥 The Russian Federation's Aerospace Forces destroyed more than 130 foreign mercenaries with high-precision strikes, as well as two HIMARS MLRS launchers near #Kramatorsk and #Maslyakovka of the DPR.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Battle for #Ugledar - #Chronicle & Rybar Analysis; Part 1/3⚡️

Photo and video 👉 footage of a broken Russian military convoy has spread around the net.

Many assigned the losses wrongly to the 155th Marines Brigade of the Pacific Fleet, which is active in areas southeast of #Ugledar, but this is not the case.

According to the feedback bot, the equipment may have belonged to the 35th Separate Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade of the 41st Combined Arms Army (sort of transferred to the operational subordination of the 29th CA).

Regardless of whose equipment it was, the incident is an extremely tragic and unpleasant episode, comparable to the losses of convoys in #Belogorovka, #Brovary, north of #Popasna, in the #Kherson region.

To understand what really happened and who was responsible for sending the column unprotected into the open field, we do a review of the fighting in the #Ugledar Area.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ War Map and the Situation on the Fronts in the Evening of 19 Mar 2023 pub. 00:04⚡️

🐽 Today Poland's Ambassador
in Paris said the country would intervene in the conflict in the 404 territory if the Kiev regime is defeated, justifying this with concern for the safety of LGBT Polish values, well, or “Eastern Kints”. An empty threat or a cause for concern - flight time will tell. But in the embassy itself, the “hyenas of Europe” have already managed to activate the “taken out of context” mode.

⚔️ Situation on the Fronts for the past Day

🔹
#Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut) Sector:

💀 Today is exactly one year since the "orchestrators" joined in the fight against Ukrainian Nazism. And there was not a single reason to doubt their effectiveness, from #Popasna to #Artyomovsk. Thanks to the heroism and professionalism of the "musicians", good news comes from the front more often.

▪️ Fighters of the Wagner PMC continue to entrench themselves on the territory of the AZOM plant. In the south of the city, there are battles near the Avangard stadium, located 800 meters from the city administration building. In addition, our troops are advancing along Hospitalnaya Street in the area of Sobachevka.

📌 There are 👉 reports of fighting on five sections of the road to #Konstantinovka.

🔹#Donetsk Direction:

The Russian Army, supported by aviation and artillery, continues to encircle #Avdeyevka from the north, our forces have established control of the high ground near #Petrovskoye.
Also, the RF Armed Forces have advanced west of #Vesyoloye, taking the road to #Krasnogorovka.
To the south of #Avdeyevka, the AFU unsuccessfully attacked our positions near #Vodyanoye and #Opytnoye.

🔹#Zaporozhye Direction:

▪️ The AFU again made attempts to break through the Russian army's lines in the #Orekhov section. The militants conducted reconnaissance battle and went on the attack, trying to bypass our strongholds from several sides.

💡 What are the Real Reasons for the SMO and who ordered them? It's not an easy question, and formulating an answer can take a very long time. But Readovka has not wasted this time - our information and analysis centre presents the first public report dedicated to Zelensky's journey from comedian to dictator, pulling #Europe into a large scale armed conflict.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🪖 We arrived at the 6th Cossack Brigade, the Wild Storm Company. Brought a Copter, Tablets, Communication Equipment, Letters and Sweets⚡️

🎬 Anatoly Dremov, call sign Wild, he and his guys were the first to enter liberated territories - #Popasna, #Kamyshevakha, #Lisichansk, #Gorskoye, #Zolotoye, #Volcheyarovka, #Soledar, etc.

There is a special atmosphere. In every free minute the guys pick up a guitar and tell many touching stories.

And what a magical lunch they served us! Beck, a trucker from #Tashkent, cooks here. In 2014 he decided to go to #Donbass and quickly learned to drive a tank. He received several heavy wounds, and now cooks delicious Uzbek dishes, at the front line, taking to the soldiers. "Salam alaikum - love the Cossacks!" Muslims and Orthodox are here together today, shoulder to shoulder, for the truth and for the common cause!

For the maximum safety of the trip, thanks to military correspondent Lisitsyn.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🇷🇺 On the Liberation of #Artyomovsk⚡️

🔹1. Zelensky's Regime
called #Bakhmut - "Fortetsey Bakhmut". Today, this "fortress has fallen" despite all the efforts of more than 80 thousand groups that operated in this direction, not counting the transferred reserves from the #Kharkov, #Svatovo, Krasny #Liman, #Zaporozhye directions. The enemy resisted fiercely until the very end, despite heavy losses, but could not hold the city.

🔹2. We also suffered significant losses during the battles for the city. And PMCs "Wagner" and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Despite the joy of victory, remember today about those who fell in these months in the city and around it, so that this victory became possible.

🔹3. Despite all the Difficulties, problems, losses - the #Artyomovsk offensive operation ended with our victory. The enemy lost one of the key cities in the #Donbass, suffered terrible losses in manpower and equipment, was forced to adjust plans for other operations and at the same time received a powerful image blow.

🔹4. Of course, the Wagner PMC played a decisive role in the liberation of #Artyomovsk, whose stormtroopers broke through the enemy's echeloned defences in the most difficult conditions and pressed the enemy out of the city until today.

Now Wagner has 3 landmark victories - #Popasna, #Soledar and #Artyomovsk, not counting #Svetlodarsk, #Uglegorskaya TPP, etc. The case when powerful PR is supported by powerful deeds for which there is no shame.

As everyone understands, now the Wagner PMC is No. 1 in the market of private military companies not only in our country, but also in the world. The state has a very serious tool and it would be very desirable that hardware friction or personal ambitions do not prevent its further use in the interests of achieving victory in the war.

"Wagner" from 25 May go on vacation from #Artyomovsk - they fully deserve it.

🔹5. According to the Laws of the DPR, #Bakhmut has gone down in history - since 20 May 2023, the city is already, in fact and legally, #Artyomovsk. After the war, residents will have the opportunity to return to discussing the name of the city, but for now we are celebrating the liberation of #Artyomovsk.

No matter how banal it may sound, but the liberation of #Artyomovsk is the fulfillment of one of the constituent tasks of the 2nd stage of the SMO associated with the liberation of the LPR and the DPR. The task is still far from being solved - there are heavy battles ahead with the #NATO mercenary army, which will not give up other occupied Russian cities so easily.

🔹6. For #Russia, the Battle of #Artyomovsk has become one of the bloodiest and longest since the Great Patriotic War. The more valuable is the victory achieved.

🏵 Happy #Artyomovsk Liberation Day to Everyone!

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Soledar Direction until the End of 20 Jun 2023⚡️

🔹 Northeast of
#Bakhmut, attempts by formations of the 10th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade and the Territorial Defence to break through the Russians defences at the "Sacco and Vanzetti" - #Nikolayevka - #Yakovlevka line are continuing. The AFU have been conducting raids trying to cut into gaps between strongholds and minefields.

At the moment, the RF Armed Forces are successfully holding the lines. The enemy, not counting casualties, is pelting the frontline with cannon fodder, concentrating most of its efforts on #Yakovlevka.

Why this village? The road to #Bakhmut via #Soledar passes through #Yakovlevka. In the event of a breakthrough here, the AFU will cut the logistics junction and will be able to extend the offensive to the roads from #Tripolya and #Popasna.

In such a scenario, the Ukrainian formations will secure the conditions they need to launch a counterattack on #Bakhmut. To the west, a strike fist is already being concentrated. The 22nd, 42nd and 115th Mechanized Brigades, as well as the 21st Mechanized Brigade at the #Slavyansk - #Seversk line, have joined the brigades previously operating there.

In radio intercepts, members of the AFU report an imminent attack on 22 June. In confirmation of this, there is a massive check of communications and readiness for joint action in the formations on the front line.

📌 There is no strategic point in an attack on #Bakhmut, except for information and psychological. But in the event of a coordinated attack along the #Belgorod and #Starobelsk directions, as well as near #Bakhmut, the AFU may attempt to break through the echeloned defenses in the LPR and DPR and cut off the RF Armed Forces' groupings at the junction of their areas of responsibility.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary on 23 August⚡️

🔹On the
#Zaporozhye Front in #Rabotino the situation for the Russians is controlled. Based on field data, about 50% is under the control of each side. AFU attempts to break through to the centre and southern part brought them heavy losses. The fights continue with constant mutual shelling. Our aviation destroyed a large AFU reserve group in the landings.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, the AFU attacks the Russian positions on the #Priyutnoye - Zavetnoye Zhelaniye line, which our fighters hold. The AFU tried to break through to the forest belt east of #Urozhaynoye, also unsuccessfully. The enemy amasses near #Ugledar and prepares a strike towards #Pavlovka and #Nikolskoye. Ours respond with fire, while the AFU shell us with cluster ammo and FPV UAVs.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, heavy fights are ongoing with the Russians counterattack and try to retake the heights at #Kleshcheyevka. The AFU again attacks near #Andreyevka, our troops hold the positions. Fierce fighting near #Belogorovka (northeast of #Seversk), semi-encircled by our army and under fire control. The fiercest battles are taking place southeast of the settlement in the half destroyed buildings of the #Popasna Vodokanal.

🔹In #Krasnyliman Direction, our army strengthen its positions and repulse the AFU attacks near #Yampolovka, #Torskoye and in #Serebryanskoye Forest. Our Forces prevent the AFU rotation by artillery fire. Two brigade control centres in #Serebryanka and #Dronovka were destroyed.

🔹In #Kupyansk Direction, the RF Armed Forces are taking more and more positions under their control. The AFU are unable to counterattack, attempts at #Sinkovka and #Petropavlovka failed, the Ukrainian forces were hit by artillery and those who could, fled to where they came from. Russian artillery is hitting the crossing near #Kupyansk. According to field reports, they were trying to rebuild it.
