The capture of Lobkove in the Zaporozhye direction somewhat worsens the situation for the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kamianske-Zaporozhye section. The reasons for the loss of this village and a number of other positions were the withdrawal of part of the brigades from the direction in the interests of holding the front near Artemovsk, Soledar and Maryinka. Only now the front began to crackle.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Boris Rozhin on #Zaporozhye Offensive - Malye Shcherbaki Captured⚡️

🔹There are reports of a successful continuation of the offensive by our forces in the #Zaporozhye direction. The capture of the village of Malye Shcherbaki and fighting for nearby #Shcherbaki west of #Orekhov is claimed.

🔹The capture of #Lobkovoye east of #Kamenskoye was previously reported.

⚠️ The liberation of #Lobkovoye is confirmed, the takeover of Malye Shcherbaki not yet!

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Donetsk - #Zaporozhye Direction until 16:00 on 20 Jan 2023⚡️

♦️#Orekhov Sector:

▪️ Soldiers of the 58th Combined Arms Army of the RF Armed Forces storm the Malye Shcherbaki - #Stepovoye defensive line of the 128th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade. Russian fighters managed to dislodge the troops of the 2nd Battalion of the AFU's 9th Special Forces Regiment "Gepard" and liberate the village of #Lobkovoye, eliminating at least 15 Ukrainian militants and taking control of three enemy strongholds.

▪️ Eastward, Russian fighters are advancing on the #Orekhov suburbs near #Novoandreyevka, #Novodanilovka and Malaya Tokmachka. Taking control of these settlements will allow to surround the city from the south and southeast.

📌 #Orekhov is one of the key transport hubs in this section, and its liberation will greatly facilitate the supply of Russian troops on the line of contact and enable the strengthening of positions before further advancing towards #Zaporozhye.

♦️#Pologi Section:

▪️ Units of the 5th Combined Arms Army have taken the dominant heights near the village of #Malinovka east of #Gulyaypole. At least 20 militants were eliminated during the offensive. For the time being, the RF Armed Forces are consolidating on the liberated lines.

▪️ The Ukrainian command also expects a resumption of the assault on the #Belogorye - #Charivnoye line, where Territorial Defence units, reinforced by ATGM crews, are deployed.

♦️#Ugledar Sector:

▪️ Russian reconnaissance teams have uncovered Ukrainian army positions in the forest belt near the village of #Elizavetovka. Spot artillery strikes by the RF Armed Forces hit the artillery firing positions together with the personnel.

♦️#Maryinka:

▪️ Positional fighting continues in the western outskirts of the town, with the AFU trying to halt the advance of Russian troops. One of the companies of the 79th Separate Air Assault Brigade was destroyed completely.

▪️ Nevertheless, the Ukrainian command is moving additional forces into the area. This indicates plans to continue maintaining defences in that direction.

🇲🇱🇷🇺 New military aid package from Russia to Mali

An official ceremony was held yesterday at the presidential pavilion at Bamako International Airport in the presence of Russian Ambassador Igor Gromyko to hand over a new batch of Russian arms to the Malian military. According to local sources, the Malian Air Force received:

➖One Su-25 attack aircraft;
➖Six L-39 combat training aircraft;
➖Two Mi-8 helicopters.

The commander of the Malian air force, General Alou boy Diarra has rightly described the Russian equipment received as "an unprecedented modernization of the Malian forces". Apparently, the latest batch of military assistance was the largest since the beginning of cooperation between Mali and Russia.

Thus, since October 2021, the Malian military has received a total of four Mi-17 helicopters, four Mi-35 helicopters, two Mi-8 helicopters, ten L-39 combat training aircraft and five Su-25 units. Against the background of France, which refuses to supply its satellites with the necessary equipment, Russia looks a more serious and reliable military ally for the African countries.

🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canadian pseudo-PMC Black Maple Company in Ukraine

A Russian channel Rybar analysed activitiy of the Canadian "PMC."

In August last year Black Maple Company, which allegedly fights on the side of the AFU, was mentioned for the first time. But after six months, its founders became famous just for PR, not for real participation in combat operations.

🔺Black Maple Company was created by Canadian mercenaries Francis Dion and Luca Alves.

➖ Luca "Speedy" Alves is a driver from Quebec who fought with the Norman Brigade from March to August 2022. He was stationed in Canada until January.

➖ Francis "Ghost" Dion - served with the 22nd Royal Canadian Army Regiment for 12 years before the USO. From March to May 2022, he fought in the Norman Brigade with his fellow, sniper Olivier "Vali" Lavigne-Ortiz, before joining the International Legion.

▪️ According to their social media, Dion and Alves managed to lure at least two Norman Brigade soldiers - Canadian Samuel Thiboldier and American Carlos Jones - into their "Internet PMC."

▪️ Dion and Alves have been mainly collecting donations for their unit in recent months. Dion organized the last car fundraiser in early November. Black Maple Company accounts in recent months have been filled with old photos of Alves and Dion, as well as shots of enterprising Canadians they know - to imitate their participation in fighting.

▪️ Francis Dion said he is now aiming to send the Black Maple Company to the front and commercialize the project by selling branded merch.

It turns out that since the organization appeared in August 2022, it has never been detected on the frontline. This suggests that at the moment Black Maple Company only exists virtually.

But that did not stop its enterprising creators from cashing in on donations from naive Western Internet users. And it is possible that the founders of the pseudo-PMC had no other goals at all.
