Good morning! Bakhmut is in touch!
The situation in the city and its surroundings on February 11.
1. Both tracks Bakhmut-Slovyansk and Bakhmut-Kostyantynivka are under our control. The enemy is making efforts to capture them, but so far without success. The roads themselves are under the fiery influence of orcs, which makes logistics impossible.
2. Yesterday, the enemy began offensive operations in the direction of Berkhivka with the aim of encircling our units in Krasnaya Gora and Paraskoviivka. Repeated at night. Both attempts were unsuccessful. There is little tactical advancement.
3. During the day, the enemy was unable to take any action against our positions in the north and northeast of Krasnaya Gora and Paraskoviivka. At the same time, he concentrates forces to bypass and encircle our troops from the north from Zaliznyansk in the direction of Duhove-Vasylivka and Orikhove-Vasylivka.

Zaluzhny:

Today, at 10:18 Russian cruise missiles "Kaliber" crossed the State border of Ukraine with the Republic of Moldova. At approximately 10:33 these missiles crossed Romanian airspace. After that, they again entered the airspace of Ukraine at the point of intersection of the borders of three states.

At the same time, the Romanian Ministry of Defense:

The Russian missile did not cross Romanian airspace, and the closest point of the missile's trajectory was recorded by radar systems 35 kilometers northeast of the border.

⭐️ The desperate attempts of official Kiev to draw third states into the war look very comical. From now on, Zaluzhny needs to coordinate his lies with his partners.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🪱 @Rybar about Strikes on Snake Island⚡️

According to a press release issued by the Ukrainian Military Forces Southern Operational Command, Russian Su-24Ms dropped four bombs on Snake Island in the Black Sea.

To say that this phenomenon is out of the ordinary is not to say anything. Because the RF Armed Forces left Snake Island as a "goodwill gesture" in the framework of the "grain deal" (in fact, the issue of keeping / leaving the island lay exclusively in the military sphere). Yes, Snake Island was an extremely inconvenient location to control because it was in the target area of Ukrainian artillery from the #Odessa region.

But control over it was important in terms of development of operations in the Black Sea and possible landing in #Odessa region (such an option was considered at the beginning of the SMO).

In the context of yesterday's 👉 naval drone strike on the bridge in Zatoka, the snake island firing looks...odd. And gives at least a timid but hopeful glimpse of renewed operations in the Black Sea towards the #Odessa region.

⚔️🇺🇸🐮💩 Analysis of the Situation in Ukraine by the US Troll Entity "Institute for the Study of War" (ISW):

🤥🇺🇸🇺🇦卐: We all know that Ugledar incident was a shitty action (point 3). But the Nazi occupiers with their perfectly trained Terro Volkssturm have many such actions.

⚠️ Simple question, when the reservists are so badly trained, why do the insurgent militants lose on all fronts at the moment?

🔸 It has been a long time since the Ukrowehrmacht could shine with a major success of its own making. Wasn't it Balakleya, after which the Russians abandoned large parts of the Kharkov region?

🔸 This offensive, however, did not produce the breakthrough success that had been hoped for. It came to a halt in a hail of Russian shells.

🔸 The prepared Zaporozhye offensive was called off because of the problems in the Soledar - Bakhmut section.

🔸 The Russians then made territorial gains first in the Zaporozhye region, then the Ugledar offensive and finally in the Starobelsk sector. Apart from that, advance in the Soledar/Bakhmut sector, which continues.

🔸 As we can see, the Russians with their untrained reservists have been taking the initiative for some time now, while the well trained Occupiers are only reacting and launching selective counter-attacks, none of which have achieved any resounding success.

🕯 Meanwhile, the aggressors' casualties are mounting immeasurably, as evidenced by the desperate terror of forced recruitment. Moreover, Ukrareich is being de-enegetised.

🔻 February 10 Key Takeaways 👻

▪️ Russian forces launched another massive series of missile and drone strikes across Ukraine.

▪️ Russian missile overflights of NATO territory are highly unlikely to prompt an escalation, and ISW continues to assess with high confidence that Russian President Vladimir Putin is unwilling to risk a direct conflict with NATO.

▪️ Recent footage of a failed Russian assault near Vuhledar, Donetsk Oblast has become the next point of neuralgia in the Russian information space and demonstrated the systemic poor training of Russian mobilized personnel.

▪️ Russian forces continued offensive operations northwest of Svatove and around Kreminna.

▪️ Russian forces continued offensive operations in the Bakhmut and Avdiivka-Donetsk City areas as well as in western Donetsk Oblast.

▪️ Russian forces reportedly conducted a limited ground attack in Zaporizhia Oblast.

▪️ Russian authorities are likely placing restrictions on movement in and out of Russia to support crypto-mobilization efforts.

▪️ Russian officials and occupation authorities are intensifying measures to integrate children in occupied territories using government-funded civic organizations.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ 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.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Battle for #Ugledar - Rybar Analysis; Part 2/3⚡️

🔹#Chronicle of the Battle for #Ugledar

▪️ On 23-24 January, fighters from the 155th Pacific Fleet Brigade and the 7th OBTF #Kaskad swooped through the AFU defence and occupied the dacha areas west of #Nikolskoye. The general plan was for several formations to advance simultaneously with a broad front: the plan was to "take #Ugledar in a pincer". But the Marines and #Kaskad, unfortunately, were the only ones who succeeded in breaking through the fighting lines.

Taking advantage of the effect of unexpectedness, the RF Armed Forces took the enemy by surprise: during intense fighting, they advanced towards the populated area, driving out units of the AFU's 68th Separate Jager Infantry Brigade and 72nd Mechanized Brigade towards #Ugledar and the South Donbass mine.

▪️ On 25 January, joint efforts by Marines and Kaskadians reached dacha areas southeast of #Ugledar, entrenching themselves in private homes. Disorganisation in the ranks of the AFU allowed for entrenchment. The first reports emerged of Russian units entering the town itself.

Throughout the day, assault units of the AFU's 72nd Mechanized Brigade tried unsuccessfully to counterattack from #Ugledar and the mine area. Nevertheless, the initial objective of the Russian troops to cut off the supply to #Ugledar was not achieved. The AFU managed to hold the line.

▪️ On 25-26 January, the Russian fighters advanced to the outskirts of the dachas. Separate assault units carried out raids on the outskirts of #Ugledar itself near the pumping station. Concurrently, an advance began from the direction of #Pavlovka towards the southwestern outskirts of #Ugledar.

However, the Ukrainian command had already begun to reinforce the defensive grouping in the town, artillery firing positions had been moved to a safe distance, and mortar crews were ceaselessly mining the approaches. In the meantime, the motorized rifle units of the RF Armed Forces were still unable to reach their planned positions.

▪️ By 27 January, the AFU was able to build a dense defence in #Ugledar. At least three companies were operating at 1km. The supply along the #Ugledar - #Konstantinovka - #Maryinka route was not cut off either physically or by fire. Ukrainian reinforcements were deployed at the main hubs.

▪️ The Marines, supported by artillery and aviation, continued fighting at the dachas near #Ugledar despite the complicated situation. The transfer of additional units of the AFU from the #Soledar direction began.

With each passing day, Ukrainian formations were pulling in more and more reserves to hold this important strategic location. Remote mining of streets and approaches continued - almost all the fields were covered in mines even before the offensive, and during the week of fighting the AFU installed over a hundred more barriers.

Marines of the 35th Naval Brigade and paratroopers of the Ukrainian Air Assault Forces' 80th Separate Air Assault Brigade arrived in #Ugledar to replace the 72nd Brigade, which had suffered heavy losses, and a battalion and tactical group was moved to #Bogatyr to create an operational reserve. Later, the 21st Battalion of the 56th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade, equipped with UAVs and night vision devices, was noted, and a few days ago a BTGr of the 53rd Mechanized Brigade was spotted near #Ugledar. ATGM crews were placed in multi-storey buildings and long-range artillery was firing at the Russian positions.

The initiative of the RF Armed Forces was intercepted!

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

▪️ By the end of January the offensive initiative of the RF Armed Forces had all but collapsed. Due to severe weather conditions, aviation could not operate and drones could not be used.

By February 5 the fighting had practically passed into a positional phase. The RF Armed Forces' artillery and aviation were actively firing on the AFU concentration areas, which had lost more than two hundred men killed during the offensive.

The bodies of the dead were impossible to remove due to the lack of transport vehicles and the active fire of the Russian army. The corpses were either simply left behind or taken to the South Donbass mine, where they were abandoned. Kraken nationalists arrived to prevent fleeing the positions.

▪️ In fact, an offensive by the Marines and OBTF alone became simply impossible. Another strike from #Nikolskoye in the direction of the #Maryinka - #Ugledar route and the South Donbass mine was needed to constrain AFU resources and cut off supplies.

▪️ It was at this stage that the entry of motorized infantry troops into the battle to strike the flank of the enemy with an armored fist was imminent and could no longer be delayed. However, an adequate military plan was never properly implemented.

🔹What happened?

Before any offensive, adequate preparation - reconnaissance, artillery and engineering - is necessary to achieve the objectives. UAV crews and forward scouts identify enemy positions, while artillerymen, together with aviation, fire on strongholds and fortifications.

At the same time, Signals Intelligence teams must ensure complete suppression of communications and drones, and engineer and sapper troops must clear the surrounding terrain - otherwise the offensive is doomed to failure.

The delayed engagement of motorized infantry units and the ensuing defeat of the convoy was only possible because of the general unpreparedness of the infantry forces engaged in the area.

The mine clearance of the approaches and the inadequate use of all available electronic warfare equipment led to the predictable result of a fairly narrow opening in the minefield, through which the column of armored vehicles rushed.

The entire route was tracked by UAVs and shot through by artillery and anti-tank crews.

🔹Who is to blame?

We can lay the blame on the command of the group as much as we like but in this particular case the cause of the tragic events was the general unpreparedness of the commanders of battalion and tactical levels, the lack of teamwork of the units involved and the failure to fulfil the combat mission.

The motorized rifle units should have engaged in combat almost simultaneously with the marines, but this did not happen. The unit commanders, probably fearing punishment, reported that their subordinates were fully prepared for the assault, which was far from reality.

Because of absence of elementary cover of radio-electronic and air defence systems and also objective difficulty of full clearance of all approaches to #Ugledar and the dachas (well and insufficient efforts, we shall be honest), there was simply no other variant of movement. The entire convoy was in plain view from the AFU positions at the #Ugledar heights.

However, all the equipment was not destroyed, as the Ukrainian media claimed. Some of it was only damaged and some was left intact. Under favourable conditions it can be pulled out and repaired. Judging by the open hatches, most of the personnel were successfully evacuated, but there were fallen and, alas, they will not be returned.

📌 Fear of the chain of command, the unwillingness to use the experiences of the first SMO year and the usual bureaucracy are the main reasons for the incident. A systemic change is needed in the approach to combat operations - both at the operational-tactical and simply tactical levels. Otherwise Belogorovka and #Ugledar will be repeated from time to time.

Our comrades from the Donbass Russia channel report that through Chasov Yar there is an outflow of mercenaries from the Artyomovsky (Bakhmut) direction, and to replace them Kiev is throwing in mobilized people at the front.

⭐️ Given the experience of the "musicians" communicating with foreign mercenaries in the previously taken Soledar, such a decision is quite justified for Kiev. The risk of a large number of mercenaries being captured or in the hands of Wagner is quite high, which would create problems in terms of information. The Armed Forces of Ukraine still firmly hold Bakhmut, do not belittle the severity of the battles waged by our soldiers. But there are signs of the city preparing for the withdrawal of all parts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from there.

As for the fact that the front in Artyomovsk is supported, first of all, by the mobilized, there is nothing surprising either. Kiev needs to retain experienced mercenaries for further operations and training of replenishment.

While the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is forming new army corps in the rear, the front is being "plugged" by those who do not matter. Mobilized. No emotion, just cold calculation.
