⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in #Bakhmut Direction on 19 Jan 2023; pub, 21:20⚡️

🔹 In Bakhmut:

Wagner PMC assault teams have made significant advances in the areas of the Meat Factory and Zabakhmutka, and they have occupied a block of high-rise buildings in the southern part of the city from the #Opytnoye side.

🔹 In the Vicinity:

#Kleshchiyevka, southwest of #Bakhmut, has come under the control of the musicians.

Wagner PMC fighters also retained the initiative after the liberation of #Soledar, entrenching themselves on the northern outskirts of Krasnaya Gora and occupying a number of AFU positions near #Paraskovievka and #Podgorodnoye.

📌 This brings the blockade of #Bakhmut closer from the north and northeast.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ #Chronicle of the #SMO for 19 Jan 2023⚡️

⚠️ All @Rybar map reports and more Rybar content are accurately translated on t.me/sitreports!

♦️#Russia's Border Areas:

▪️ AFU launched a missile strike against the Unechsky district in the #Bryansk region, but air defences shot down all enemy shells.

▪️ The AFU terrorists also struck the settlements of #Leninskoye, #Dolgoye, #Tserkovnoye and #Balki in the #Belgorod region, damaging civilian infrastructure and power lines. No casualties.

♦️#Starobelsk Direction (MAP):

▪️ In the #Kupyansk - #Svatovo section, Ukrainian units supported by armoured vehicles have launched an offensive on #Novoselovskoye from the southwest. Enemy units have approached the local railway station and are waiting for reinforcements to continue their attack towards #Kuzemovka from the northwest. #Novoselovskoye itself is still in the "grey zone".
The AFU command is moving additional personnel and equipment into the area to reinforce the grouping.

▪️ In the #Liman sector, the enemy also expects Russian offensive in several directions. Units from #Donetsk and other areas are being moved closer to the line of contact.
The AFU airborne assault troops plan to attack Russian positions near #Dibrova.

▪️ Ukrainian terrorists launched a massive strike against the LPR Belovodsk district with UAVs, most of the devices were shot down by air defence. One drone hit the mechanical workshop of the Derkul Stud Farm, the building was damaged.

♦️#Soledar Direction (MAP):

▪️ After the liberation of #Soledar and #Sol station, Wagner PMC fighters are advancing towards #Blagodatnoye, as well as on the AFU strongholds at the #Krasnopolye - #Razdolovka - #Veseloye line.

▪️ Northeast of #Bakhmut (#Artyomovsk), fierce fighting is taking place for Krasnaya Gora and #Paraskovievka. The enemy command is deploying additional units of the Territorial Defence to this site, some of which refuse to fight.

The AFU intends to attack positions of Russian paratroopers on the #Shevchenko - #Podgorodnoye line in order to keep control over key roads in northern #Bakhmut.

▪️ In #Bakhmut itself fierce fighting is ongoing in the southeast of the city. "Wagnerians" have taken control of several high-rise buildings in the south of the city and have advanced in Zabakhmutka. The AFU command is rotating and reinforcing the enemy grouping with mobilised civilians.

▪️ Southwest of #Bakhmut, Wagner PMC assault troops liberated the village of #Kleshchiyevka, knocking out the 3rd Assault Brigade and the Territorial Defence from the settlement.

Fighting is still going on in the vicinity of the village, but its liberation and the capture of a fortified area nearby allows to take the Chasov Yar - #Bakhmut highway under fire control and provides another "entry point" into the city from the southwest.

♦️#Donetsk Direction:

▪️ The enemy terrorists continue their strikes on #Donetsk, #Gorlovka, #Yasinovataya and other surrounding settlements of the #Donetsk agglomeration, there are civilian casualties.

♦️#Zaporozhye Direction (MAP):

▪️ In the #Orekhov sector, Russian troops are scouting AFU combat positions on the Malaya Shcherbaki - #Stepovoye and Malaya Tokmachka - #Nesterianka lines. An unexpected attack on the strongholds of the 65th Mechanized Brigade and 128th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade forced the enemy to retreat, leaving behind four settlements, according to some reports.
The AFU command intends to launch a counterattack shortly to retake the lost territories. Most of the villages near the line of contact are in the "grey zone".

▪️ In the #Pologi sector, Ukrainian formations are also preparing for an offensive by the RF Armed Forces, reinforcing their positions with machine gun crews and ATGMs.

▪️ The AFU moved additional artillery pieces to the area of #Iskra and #Kamyshevakha on the border between the DPR and #Zaporozhye region in case of a possible offensive by Russian forces on Bolshaya Novosyolka.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Frontline Report for the Morning of 20 Jan 2023; pub. 09:09⚡️

♦️In #Zaporozhye (region), the Russian army, supported by artillery, attacked AFU positions in #Stepnoye in order to reach an important section of the rocket road leading to #Orekhov. To the southeast of that town, it attempted to advance towards Malaya Tokmachka. There, too, is a section of the rockade. Thus, the RF Armed Forces are seeking to reach #Orekhov from two sides. Artillery was striking at #Gulyaypole and #Poltavka. (Fig. 1)

♦️On the #Donetsk front, Russian forces attacked in the direction of the local #Paraskovievka. In #Maryinka, they are squeezing the AFU on the western outskirts of the city, advancing near #Vodyanoye. Artillery is working on the Ukrainian stronghold in #Avdeyevka. (Fig. 2)

♦️South of #Bakhmut, the AFU has serious problems. The Wagner PMC is attacking from #Kurdyumovka in the direction of #Dyleyevka. And a little to the north there is already an assault at Belaya Gora. In other words, the "musicians" are targeting #Konstantinovka, through which the Ukrainian garrison in #Bakhmut is supplied. Moreover, this town, like Chasov Yar, is the command centres of the AFU in #Donbass and a place where forces and reserves are concentrated. #Konstantinovka is also the southern gateway to #Kramatorsk.

After the Wagner PMC took #Kleshchiyevka, the way to #Bakhmut from the south is open. There are no more settlements here. On the eastern outskirts of #Bakhmut itself, the "bandits" are also advancing. But this is more likely a diversion of enemy forces. It is obvious that they will try to encircle the city. Events to the north of #Bakhmut are indicative of this. The Wagner PMC is attacking Krasnaya Gora and #Blagodatnoye. And east of #Seversk, Russian troops are already trying to advance towards #Verkhnekamenskoye. (Fig. 3)

♦️In the #Lugansk direction, the RF Armed Forces again attacked in the vicinity of #Belogorovka. They also attempted to advance from #Zhitlovka towards #Terny.

For their part, the AFU is conducting offensive operations on #Kuzemovka. This is a dangerous direction for Russian troops. There are no settlements behind this village and the terrain is quite open. It is quite a convenient route to #Svatovo from the north-west. (Fig. 4)

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ #Artyomovsk Direction - Situation in the Morning of 22. Jan 2023; by YURI⚡️

♦️ Here, as yesterday, our pressure to the south of the city in the direction of #Krasnoye continues to intensify.

🔹 Yesterday the Wagner PMCs occupied several more enemy strongholds in the direction of this settlement, and apparently today this movement will continue. All the more so, the consequences from #Zaporozhye direction are already playing into our hands, where the enemy has already been forced to transfer reserves even from the north #Donbass front.

🔹 North of the city, stubborn fighting for control of #Paraskovievka (the most important road junction) continues.

🔹 Also, headquarters and all sorts of "logistics" are gradually being withdrawn from the town, which suggests that the AFU command is preparing for further territorial losses and is not particularly optimistic about retaining the town.

📌 For now it can only try to hold back our offensive in the hope that the crisis in the south will not be large-scale and this will generally allow it to retreat in an orderly manner to new lines east of #Slavyansk and #Kramatorsk and to hold Chasov Yar.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Soledar Direction until 13:00 on 23 Jan 2023⚡️

♦️
#Soledar Section:

▪️ Wagner PMC assault units advance towards #Razdolovka north of #Soledar and #Blagodatnoye to the west after liberating the village of #Krasnopolye.

▪️ Units of the 10th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade, reinforced with two units of armoured vehicles, made an unsuccessful attempt to storm Russian positions at the #Razdolovka - #Stryapovka line. The attack was thwarted by artillery fire.

▪️ Members of the AFU's 17th Tank Brigade report that the main reason for the loss of #Soledar was a mistake by the command during the redeployment and replacement of the personnel of the 128th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade.

📌 According to the AFU Task Force, the total losses of the entire Ukrainian garrison in and around #Soledar amounted to more than 2,000 killed and wounded in the last two weeks alone.

♦️Northeast of #Bakhmut:

▪️ Russian troops are fighting in the vicinity of Krasnaya Gora, where the AFU is trying to hold the defensive line. Ukrainian artillery is firing at the Russian attack areas.

The Ukrainian units in this sector have been supplied with cannon and rocket artillery pieces, including domestically produced Alder-M MLRS with a range of up to 130 km, as well as a large number of armoured vehicles.

However, the AFU currently has a significant shortage of ammunition, which makes massive shelling impossible. One crew cannot use more than five shells per day.

▪️ A improvised depot has been set up in #Paraskovievka, where additional shells, thermal imaging cameras, ultrashortwave radios and batteries were delivered the day before.

♦️#Bahmut:

▪️ Wagner PMC assault troops have advanced in the Meat Factory and Zabakhmutka districts and occupied a residential area on the southern outskirts from the #Opytnoye side.

▪️ The withdrawal of the 60th Mechanized Brigade of the AFU from #Druzhkovka station continues due to losses incurred. Strongpoints and positions are now held by members of the 93rd Mechanized Brigade, which has arrived to replace them.

♦️Southwest of #Kleshchiyevka:

▪️ The "Wagnerians" have consolidated north and northwest of the village and are advancing towards #Krasnoye (#Ivanovskoye), gaining control of four strongholds and three fire positions. The capture of #Krasnoye will allow #Bakhmut to be operational encircled.

▪️ The Ukrainian command formed a separate tactical group on the basis of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade. The AFU formations have occupied areas to the southwest and west of #Kleshchiyevka and are preparing to launch a counteroffensive to regain control over the lost territories.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦💀 Current Situation in #Bakhmut Direction⚡️

🔹 North of #Kleshchiyevka, Wagner PMC troops eliminated a major stronghold of the AFU. This opens the way for further progress towards the village of #Krasnoye (#Ivanovskoye), as well as towards the southeastern outskirts of #Bakhmut.

🔹 In #Bakhmut itself, the "musicians" continue to advance in the areas of Zabakhmutovka, Myasokombinat, Sobachevka, as well as near the Trubny Stavok pond.

🔹 North of #Bakhmut, the Wagner PMC fighters continue their successful offensive on several fronts simultaneously:

▪️ entered the southeastern quarters of #Paraskovievka settlement;
▪️ are fighting in the north of Krasnaya Gora;
▪️ are advancing towards #Razdolovka and #Nikolaevka.

🔹 North of #Blagodatnoye, assault teams of PMC Wagner attacked and already half-cleared one of the three company strongholds of the AFU.

♦️#Soledar Direction:

Several houses were destroyed in the Kiev and Kuibyshevsky districts of #Donetsk, as well as in #Aleksandrovka. One person was killed and two injured.

♦️#Donetsk Direction (MAP):

▪️ Soldiers of the Separate Assault Battalion Somali drove the enemy from superior heights north of #Vodyanoye, forcing the AFU to retreat from the village. Ukrainian units of the AFU's 59th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade lost a large number of personnel and retreated to the second line of defence.
In order to prevent the collapse of the defense, the command of the Ukrainian forces urgently redeploys Marines from the 501st Battalion of the 36th Separate Marines Brigade. A pair of Mi-8 helicopters provides them with fire support in the area of #Vodyanoye. The AFU comand expects a further major Russian offensive in several areas, including #Pervomayskoye, #Maryinka, #Krasnogorovka and #Nevelskoye.

♦️#Donetsk - #Zaporozhye Direction (MAP):

▪️ In the #Orekhov section, the RF Armed Forces are probing the enemy defence at the line #Novoandreyevka - #Novodanilovka. The AFU command continues to move special forces reserves and additional anti-tank crews to the site.

▪️ In the #Pologi sector, Russian troops are advancing towards #Gulyaypole and dislodged the enemy from several strongholds near #Malinovka. To counteract the advancing units, the AFU are saturating the front with anti-aircraft missiles for MANPADS.

▪️ In the #Vremyevka sector, Russian artillerymen are firing at the enemy's strongholds at the #Novosyolka - Bolshaya (Velikaya) Novosyolka line.

▪️ In the #Ugledar sector, units of the Pacific Fleet Marine Corps and the 7th OBTF (Operational and Battle Tactical Formation of DPR) broke through the AFU defences in the suburban areas west of #Nikolskoye.

On #Ugledar itself, Russian troops are advancing from the west and south, which came as a complete surprise to the enemy. Part of the garrison holding the defence was withdrawn to the area of the South Donbass Mine 1 to replenish losses.

♦️#Kherson Direction on Southern Front (MAP):

▪️ Early this morning Ukrainian units attempted to land near #Korsunka on the left bank of the #Dnepr River in the #Kherson region. The AFU in five boats landed ashore. Three boats were sunk while still in the water, and the landing enemy units were destroyed in the village of #Korsunki. On the right bank of the #Dnepr, the RF Armed Forces destroyed five enemy armoured vehicles and up to 30 personnel.
This is probably not the last attempt, and there will only be more of them in the future. The next landing should be expected on the #Kinburn peninsula and in the area of Novaya Kakhovka
