⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ War Map and Situation on the Fronts in the Evening of 26 Dec 2022; pub. 0:05⚡️

🏴‍☠️ Ukrainian drones continue to attack a long-range air base - the #Engels airbase has been hit again. The defence ministry says that one or more UAVs were shot down, but falling shrapnel killed three servicemen. And there is no understanding as to which drones attacked the nuclear weapon carrier base. The very fact that an enemy drone flew through the entire central part of the country, equipped with an echelon of air defences, discredits the Russian air defence forces as much as possible and looks strange. But there is also the possibility of a launch by subversive groups from somewhere in the #Volga region, which also does not add to optimism.

⚔️ Situation on the Fronts in the outgoing 24 Hours

♦️
#Svatovo - #Kremennaya Direction:

The Russian army struck concentrations of militants' manpower and equipment near #Kislovka, #Kharkov region.

In addition, a Ukrainian SRG and an AFU mortar squad were destroyed in the areas of #Stelmakhovka and Chervonya Dibrova in the LPR.

♦️#Donetsk Direction:

The Russian army struck the command post of an AFU brigade near #Kramatorsk. There, it also destroyed an AFU weapons repair and recovery post with two HIMARS MLRSs, two Gvozdika SAMs, five D-30 howitzers, as well as three pieces of special equipment.

💥 Two Ukrainian Grad MLRSs were destroyed in the districts of #Pervomayskoye in the DPR and #Kamyshevakha in #Zaporozhye region. Three Ukrainian D-30 howitzers have been destroyed in the districts of #Torskoye, #Vodyanoye and #Maryinka in the DPR.

⚡️🇷🇺🏳️‍🌈🛰 @Rybar's Analysis: On Space Reconnaissance of Objects in Russian Territory⚡️

Another Ukrainian drone was shot down over Engels-2 airfield this morning (29 Dec 2022). This is the third attempt to hit a this base of strategic aviation aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces after the attacks of 5 Dec 2022 and 👉 26 Dec 2022.

The new strike on #Engels was preceded by active reconnaissance. The new strike on #Engels was preceded by active reconnaissance. A satellite constellation of Western countries was actively photographing the locations of airborne vehicles at the airfields.

Rybar's team managed to find out that military and commercial spacecraft were surveying a huge number of sites on Russian territory in December.

♦️ What else were the Satellites tracking?

▪️ The most active (more than 50 imaging sessions in December), Ukraine's western partners monitored airfields of strategic, tactical and army aviation in #Rostov, #Voronezh, #Zaporozhye and #Ryazan regions as well as in the Republic of #Crimea.

▪️ The situation around facilities in the #Belgorod and #Bryansk regions, which are linked to the 12th Main Directorate of the Ministry of Defence and are responsible for nuclear technical support and national security, is monitored almost continuously.

▪️ Surveillance and reconnaissance of facilities at #Mozdok in the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania and Privolzhsky in the Astrakhan region, as well as at Astrakhan International Airport, began for the first time in December.

▪️ The infrastructure of nuclear power plants in #Kurchatov and the village of #Makarovka in the #Kursk region is surveyed with enviable frequency.

▪️ In addition, the enemy's attention is focused on the situation in the Republic of #Crimea and #Sevastopol. Satellites mainly capture airbases and Black Sea Fleet shipyards, as well as logistics hubs and military-industrial complex enterprises in the border regions.

♦️What does this mean?

Reconnaissance of targets on Russian territory goes on almost continuously. NATO space constellations, as well as private contractors like Maxar, are fully focused on working for #Ukraine.

Satellites are used to monitor the movements of strategic bombers, the movement of rail and road convoys, the deployment of front-line personnel, and the situation at Russian nuclear facilities.

This allows analysts of the North Atlantic bloc to choose the most suitable direction or target for an offensive, including at a great distance from the frontline.

Moreover, priority is now being given to disabling airfields at a great distance from the front line. Such actions are designed to deprive the RF Armed Forces of an important advantage, as well as to demonstrate the capabilities of the AFU and sow panic among the Russian population.

In the near future, we should expect strikes on power facilities not only in the regions bordering #Ukraine, but also at a considerable distance from the combat zone.

♦️What to do about it?

Aid and assistance from the US and allies will not stop. They will increase, and attempted strikes will be repeated. Acknowledging this fact will already make it easier to level the efforts of the AFU and their Western sponsors.

A simple observance of basic security and stealth requirements and the erection of improvised defensive structures are already capable of reducing the damage from possible attacks. It will be possible to recall the long-forgotten practice of taking into account the time of overflight by NATO earth-sensing satellites over the area where the object is located.

And in the short term there will be a question of mass introduction into the troops of a really working automated air control and warning system, which will allow air defence units to receive data on the situation at all sites.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ #Chronicle of the Special Military Operation for 10 January 2024⚡️

🔹#Novomikhaylovka in the #Ugledar section, is still the hottest front spot. Although certain problems remain with the assault on the village itself, the RF Armed Forces decided to bypass the flank and advanced deep into the enemy’s defence in an area up to 4 km wide and to a depth of up to 700 m in the area of the Solenenkaya beam. This allows to shoot through the #Konstantinovka - #Novomikhaylovka road section.

🔹In the #Bakhmut direction, units of the Russian Airborne Forces finally cleared the cemetery south of #Bogdanovka from the enemy. In the #Avdetevka sector, the Russian Army is fighting heavy battles in the area of #Stepovoye (#Petrovskoye on Rybar maps) and at the Coke Plant. The situation has not changed.

🔹In the #Orekhov section, the RF Armed Forces are conducting sorties in small groups on light armored vehicles on AFU positions west of #Rabotino. The enemy is trying to regain lost positions west of #Verbovoye. In the #Kherson direction, the AFU continue the operation to hold the springboard in #Krynki at any cost, despite the high losses of personnel and watercraft.

🔹The RF Armed Forces carried out strikes on targets in #Kharkov, #Mirnograd, #Nikopol, #Dnepropetrovsk and Krivoy Rog. In the latter, after the strikes, a critical situation with energy supply developed. The AFU, in turn, tried to attack targets behind Russian lines with an aircraft-type drones. Air defence crews shot down an UAV on approach to #Engels. Most likely, the target was the airfield of the same name.

📋🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Two Majors #Report for the Morning of 5 April 2024; pub. 07:00📍

💥 The enemy attacked airfields at night. In the #Saratov region, UAVs were shot down in #Engels. More than 40 drones attacked an airfield in the Morozovsky district of the #Rostov region. The electrical substation is damaged.

🔹The #Kherson direction is characterised by the stability of the line of contact, despite the constant enemy attempts to create new points of tension on our coast by landing small groups of infantry. There is a constant hunt and destruction of enemy boats. The enemy is shelling, including peaceful settlements. Over the day, attacks were reported on Cossack Camps, #Dneprany, #Korsunka, #Alyoshki. In Novaya Kakhovka, the AFU dropped a bomb from a drone on a team of workers who were restoring mobile communications in the city. Two people were killed, and one is in serious condition in the hospital. The governor reports that one of the dead could have survived, but the Nazis began to hit the ambulance team that arrived at the scene by UAVs. Because of this, it was not possible to provide medical care to the wounded in time. In #Kakhovka, the AFU dropped mines from drones near the post office building and on the House of culture.

🔹On the #Zaporozhye front, there are counter battles. The AFU at #Verbovoye use tanks to shell our positions, the RFAF respond with bombs, daring landing attacks on BMD-4 and the work of nomadic self-propelled mortars 2C41 "Drok". Our soldiers from the field report that, despite Kiev's assurances about running out of ammunition, the enemy is constantly hitting with cluster shells. Yesterday, the AFU fired at the ZNPP in #Energodar. The nuclear facility switched to providing energy from diesel generators: the 330 kV Feroalloy -1 high-voltage power supply line was disconnected. The power units were previously shut down. The radiation background is normal.

🔹The suburbs of #Chasov Yar have been reached by the advanced units of the Russian Army in heaviest battles from the east. They are entrenched on the outskirts. The enemy reports that at least 4 of our SU-25s are working at the same time, armoured vehicles are used on the ground in attacks by the RFAF, which the enemy is trying to destroy on the approaches. The enemy channels lament the long but useless preparation of the AFU defensive lines on the approaches to the city from the east, which our units have already overcome.

🔹South of #Seversk, the RFAF are attacking near #Vesyoloye. They are reporting the intensification of offensive actions of our troops.

💥 The #Belgorod region is under enemy attacks. Drones arrived at #Voznesenovka of the Shebekinsky urban district and a lorry near #Voznesenovka of the Shebekinsky urban district. There are attacks on the border areas. In #Kursk, AFU drones hit an apartment building, fires broke out at the central market and at the centre for the development of creativity of children and youth on Uritsky Street.

💥 The Nazis continue to strike at the peaceful population of the #DPR. Two civilians were killed in #Donetsk and #Gorlovka, 10 people, including a teenager, were injured of moderate severity.

🎬 #Zaporozhye Front, #Rabotino - our paratroopers discovered an enemy flag, which the AFU had stuck into the crater left by a Russian shell. This bug has been fixed.
