⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Soledar Direction until 14:00 on 27 Dec 2022⚡️

🩸 Fighting continues in and around #Bakhmut. The "Wagnerians" together with the Russian People's Militia of the LPR are conducting an offensive in several areas.

However, the Ukrainian command is moving reserves to keep control of the area, so it is too early to talk about the liberating #Bakhmut soon, see also 👉 Assessment.

♦️#Bakhmut (#Artyomovsk) Sector:

▪️ Wagner PMC assault squads have squeezed out the 63rd AFU Mechanized Brigad's units from five platoon strongholds near #Opytnoye on the #Ivangrad side.

▪️ Fierce fighting for the #Kleshchiyevka village is taking place on its eastern outskirts. Units of the 28th Mechanized Brigade are setting up minefields in the central part of the village.

▪️ Artillery crews of the 28th and 53rd Mechanized Brigades and the 57th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade of the AFU are firing barrage at the RF Armed Forces advance areas. Mavic-3, Matrix-300 and Autel Evo II UAVs provide target acquisition.

▪️ On the southeastern outskirts of #Bakhmut, Russian forces are gradually breaking through the defences of the Ukrainian garrison. Reinforcements and three tanks have been transferred to the area of the 57th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade for support and replenishment.

▪️ Meanwhile, the number of casualties is increasing day by day. Ukrainian formations are spreading information that out of 800 mobilised who arrived earlier, less than 100 people have survived.

▪️ From the #Kharkov region, the transfer of forces from the Territorial defence have begun - despite the formal attitude to the troops, the units are equipped with heavy equipment and air defence systems.

♦️#Soldar Area:

▪️ The Wagnerians continue to advance in several directions, systematically improving their tactical position. Currently, fighting is taking place in the vicinity of #Razdolovka, #Veseloye and on the eastern outskirts of #Soledar from the direction of #Bakhmutskoye.

▪️ Units of the 10th Mountain Assault Brigade and 46th Airmobile Brigade of the AFU are defending in almost destroyed settlements that have no serious fortifications. Holding the villages is complicated due to Russian artillery and aviation fire and problems with the supply of ammunition.

▪️ At the same time, assault groups of the AFU's 128th AFU's Mountain Assault Brigade attempted to break the advancing ranks of the RF Armed Forces in the area of #Stryapovka. As a result of the Russian counterattack, the AFU lost control over four positions.

♦️Additional Info:

▪️ Activity of 17th Tank Brigade formations from the #Kherson direction has been noted in #Kramatorsk. Earlier, one of the battalions was seen in the #Liman area.

▪️ In the #Dnepropetrovsk region, the completion of 56 Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade is underway and will be completed in January 2023.

▪️ A training camp for mobilised citizens has been set up at the training ground in #Cherkasy, and in #Belozorye, southwest of the administrative center, the 53rd Mechanized Brigade of the AFU, which has been withdrawn from the combat zone, is being restaffed.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Frontline Report for the Morning of 28 Dec 2022; pub. 10:02⚡️

♦️In the #Zaporozhye direction, Russian troops reduced the intensity of artillery fire. Flights hit #Plavni, #Novoandreyevka, #Novodanilovka and Malaya Tokmachka. The AFU launched a missile attack on #Tokmak. There is a military airfield. #Tokmak itself is an important logistics centre for the RF Armed Forces (Figure 1).

♦️There is nothing new on the #Donetsk front. In the southern sector, the Russian army is again attempting to attack in the direction of #Novomikhailovka. Fierce fighting continues in the city of #Maryinka. Russian troops again attack in the direction of #Nevelskoye, #Pervomayskoye, #Vodyanyoye and from the direction of #Opytnoye. Strangely enough, it is quiet in #Avdeyevka. Slightly to the north, the RF Armed Forces are attempting to move towards #Kamenka. Further north they attacked in the direction of #Aleksandropol. Apart from #Maryinka, there are no successes to speak of. (Fig. 2)

♦️South of #Bakhmut, the Wagner PMCs decided to move on #Dyleyevka. Slightly to the north, they attack in the area of #Kleshchiyevka. On the eastern outskirts of #Bakhmut itself, the Wagner PMC is no longer doing well. But it attacks near #Podgorodnoye. Apparently, they decided to replace the unsuccessful frontal assaults with a flanking encirclement of the city. It's the same southeast of #Soledar. An attempt to push through the AFU garrison in #Bakhmutskoye from the north. The Ukrainian army in this area unexpectedly counterattacked in the direction of #Stryapovka. (Fig. 3)

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ 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.
