⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Artyomovsk Direction as of 00:05 Moscow time on 8 Jan 2023⚡️

🔹1. In the south of #Bakhmut (#Artyomovsk), fighting is taking place near #Kleshchiyevka, where the Wagners are pounding and storming the AFU strongholds. #Kleshchievka itself has not yet been entered. To the south our troops are trying to advance from the #Kurdyumovka and #Ozeryanovka areas, but no results are known yet.

🔹2. In #Bakhmut itself there is fighting in the southeastern outskirts, where the "orchestra" is fighting for every house.

Part of #Opytnoye has been taken, fighting is taking place in the centre of the village, and no one is marking a clear front line there now.

In the vicinity of the town's industrial area fighting is taking place at the site of the gypsum plant and Patrice Lumumba street. There is little progress and the fighting is mostly positional.

🔹3. #Podgorodnoye is taken, where the system of the AFU Ukrops is similar to #Opytnoye, but they are still breaking there, while in #Podgorodnoye they have already broken through.

Enemy strongholds between #Podgorodnoye and Krasnaya Gora are being stormed, ours have not entered the latter yet.

🔹4. In #Soledar, fighting continues in the residential areas in the central part of the city. PMC Wagner assault units have reached the salt mine 1.3, taking it. The enemy have marked themselves off State Enterprise Artemsol (video with Butusov). They are sitting on the Sol station, on the western outskirts of #Soledar, having transferred the 46th Brigade from the #Zaporozhye direction for reinforcement.

Ours have entered the town from the #Yakovlevka side and there are reports of advances westwards to the #Seversk - #Soledar highway, but even here the real front line is difficult to mark at the moment.

🔹5. According to military expert Boris Rozhin, the capture of #Soledar will allow us to cover the enemy positions in #Bakhmut from the north. At the same time, problems arise in the enemy defence north of #Soledar at the line of #Veseloye - #Belogorovka - #Berestovoye - #Spornoye.

Cutting the #Seversk - #Soldar route will enable an offensive along it to #Seversk. If the offensive towards #Seversk and northwards develops, the enemy is deprived of the opportunity to use a bridgehead near the second #Belogorovka at Seversky Donets River to put pressure on #Lisichansk and through the forested area to #Kremennaya.

This is a complex impact!

🔹6. The enemy tries to cling to areas of weapons depots, artemsol underground communications and urban development.

🔹7. Retreating to #Bakhmut, the enemy will attempt to hold the defenses in the western part of the city, if necessary by withdrawing to equipped positions near Chasov Yar, using the dominant heights, before retreating to #Druzhkovka, #Kramatorsk and #Konstantinovka. With the pushing of the enemy in #Bakhmut, the front is hardly likely to crumble.

🔹8. A defensive breakthrough at #Soledar could have more serious consequences for the AFU. But everything depends on the pace of our advance and how quickly the enemy will be able to stabilize the line after losing #Soledar.

📌 The position of the AFU in this direction is close to critical, which is confirmed by the redeployment of formations from the #Zaporozhye direction to #Bakhmut and #Soledar. If their front line is shattered, it will be shattered not only there.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ YURI on #Soledar - Situation as of Evening 7 Jan 2023 (briefly); pub. 22:20⚡️

⚠️ SITREP 8 Jan 2023, status 7:20: #Soledar have not yet been taken. This is the current situation, now Yuri's report👇

🔹The guys from the Wagner PMCs carried out attacks along the entire perimeter of the enemy front in the city at night and in many places they managed to dislodge the enemy from its positions, which caused an overnight "operational crisis" and even panic in the ranks of the AFU.

🔹To save the situation, the remnants of the reserves were hurriedly transferred to the city (even the infantry were thrown in instead), which managed to hold the main line of defense, but were unable to contain the attacks on the flanks.

🔹This allowed our troops to gain a foothold on the northern outskirts of the city and engage in combat in the area of garage cooperatives. At the same time the salt mines in the northern part of the city and the Sol railway station were under attack.

🔹In the south we managed to finally dislodge the enemy from the village of #Podgorodnoye (it is not on the map, it is slightly to the south) and reach the village of Krasnaya Gora, and thus, together with the success in the north, take the city into operational encirclement (there are no safe roads for the AFU here anymore, they are all shot through).

📌 I think that tonight there will be another pressure of the "musicians", and in this situation it will be very difficult for the AFU to keep the situation under control. Therefore, it is possible that tomorrow they may receive an order to retreat (if they have time, of course).

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Soledar Direction until 14:00 on 8 Dec 2023⚡️

🩸In the vicinity of #Bakhmut (#Artyomovsk) and #Soledar, fierce fighting continues. Russian forces are penetrating the AFU defences, forcing them to move more and more reinforcements to hold the settlements.

♦️#Soldar Sector:

▪️ Wagner PMC assault units are advancing in the area of Salt Mine 1-3 on AFU positions in Artemsol at the intersection of Chkalova and Karpinskogo streets.

▪️ In the northeastern outskirts of #Soledar, the assault units advanced towards Yurchina Gora, taking control of the stretch of road up to #Blagodatnoye.

▪️ The situation in #Soledar is close to critical for the Ukrainian militants. The RF Armed Forces have broken through the first and second defence lines, while the combat ranks of the third line are threated. The forces of the 128 Separate Mountain Assault Brigade have fled the lines and the resistance is being mounted by ideologically savvy members of the AFU.

▪️ Units of the 99th Battalion of the 61st Mechanized Brigade have lost control of three observation posts and part of the 61st Brigade's forces have been withdrawn from the combat area to make up for their losses. On 6 January, two additional platoons have been moved into the vicinity.

Despite significant successes in #Soledar, it is premature to speak of full control of the settlement. At the moment, there are no signs of an AFU withdrawal from #Soledar.

♦️Northeast of #Bakhmut:

▪️ The Russians have dislodged combined units of the AFU's 60th Mechanized Brigade and 17th Tank Brigade from the #Podgorodnoye village, opening the way to encircle the #Bakhmut garrison from the north, and they have reached Krasnyaya Gora.

♦️#Bakhmut's Eastern and Southeastern Outskirts:

▪️ Wagner forces are advancing from the north of Fyodor Maksimenko Street to the south towards the rubbish plant, with almost the entire street under the control of the "Wagnerians".

▪️ In addition, the mop up of the gypsum plant on Patrice Lumumba Street has been completed and control over Trudovykh Reserve Street has been extended. The AFU is actively using underground communications to deter the offensive.

♦️South and Southwest of #Bakhmut:

▪️ Russian forces continue to storm Ukrainian strongholds in #Opytnoye and #Kleshchiyevka, the liberation of which will allow to encircle #Bakhmut completely and to take the communications from #Konstantinovka and Chasov Yar under fire control.

▪️ To contain the offensive, the AFU deployed 50 reserve fighters of the 60th Mechanized Brigade, two armoured groups of the 3rd Battalion of the 28th Mechanized Brigade, as well as a company of the 32nd National Guard Regiment and the "Karpaty" Forces of Special Operations.

▪️ To compensate for the losses of the AFU's 24th, 30th 60th, 61st and 63rd Mechanized Brigades, up to four thousand men with armoured vehicles will be transferred from the #Chernigov region from 20 January. Most likely, these will be units of the 58th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade and 93rd Mechanized Brigade, which are currently at the #Goncharovskoye training ground for supplementary recruitment.

▪️ In addition, artillerymen and tankers of the 60th Mechanized Brigade and 17th Tank Brigade, as well as tactical aviation aircraft from #Mirgorod (five Su-25 and two Mig-29) are indiscriminately shelling the Russian advance areas in #Soledar, #Bakhmut, #Kurdyumovka, #Andreyevka, #Podgorodnoye and on the approaches to Krasnaya Gora.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ #Chronicle of the Special Military Operation for 9 Jan 2023⚡️

♦️
#Belgorod region

▪️Russian anti-aircraft defence worked near #Belgorod. All shells were intercepted.

♦️#Starobelsk Direction (MAP):

▪️In the #Kupyansk - #Svatovo section of the AFU, personnel are being rotated. In the #Raygorodka direction, reinforcements have been moved to the 103rd Territorial Defence Brigade's strongholds, and new forces have arrived in #Stelmakhovka.
UAV operators of the 40th Combined Battalion and the 92nd Mechanized Brigade of the AFU conduct reconnaissance of Russian positions near #Kuzemovka, #Naugolnoye, and #Kolomiychikha.

▪️The reconnaissance activity of Ukrainian SRGs and Fly Eye UAVs from the 80th Separate Air Assault Brigade has increased in the #Liman area. The enemy is drawing in reserves for an offensive in the area of #Dibrova.

▪️A battery of M777 howitzers is installed in #Torskoye and at least 15 armoured vehicles are deployed in #Terny.

▪️Increased activity of Ukrainian aviation has been noted over the #Kharkov region, which could indicate an imminent offensive against Russian positions.

♦️#Soledar Direction (MAP):

▪️Wagner PMC assault troops are advancing in the centre and the northern outskirts of #Soledar. Fierce fighting is taking place near the city administration building.
Communications are disrupted between the surviving scattered enemy formations. Presumably the enemy is preparing to withdraw from the city due to difficulty in holding positions.

▪️Northeast of #Bakhmut (#Artyomovsk), Russian units, taking advantage of the terrain, have broken through the defences of the AFU's 17th Tank Brigade and 60th Mechanized Brigade from the direction of #Podgorodnoye and #Bakhmutskoye, opening the way for further offensive on Krasnaya Gora and #Paraskovievka. A sweep of the strongholds adjacent to the villages is ongoing.
Further success of the Russian forces in this area will make it possible to cut the #Seversk - #Bakhmut highway, which will cut off the AFU grouping supplies in #Bakhmut from the north.
South and southwest of #Bakhmut, "Wagnerian" assault troops are attacking AFU strongholds in #Kleshchiyevka and #Opytnoye. Both villages are under full fire control of Russian troops.

♦️#Donetsk Direction:

▪️Positional fighting continues in the centre of #Maryinka. Russian units are trying to push the AFU to the western outskirts of the city.

▪️Ukrainian terrorist formations have again shelled civilian facilities in #Donetsk agglomeration. #Gorlovka and #Aleksandrovka have been hit. In the DPR capital, artillery fire killed one woman and injured three people.

♦️#Zaporozhye Region:

▪️Artillery duels continue along the entire contact line, with Russian forces hitting targets in #Charivnoye, Malaya Shcherbaki, #Stepovoye and #Novodanilovka.

▪️Ukrainian militants shelled #Dorozhnyanka and #Vasilievka.

♦️#Kherson Direction on Southern Front:

▪️In the afternoon, Russian troops hit a target in #Ochakov, Nikolaev region. An AFU ammunition depot located on the territory of the former 7th Coastal Battery was destroyed.
After the strike, there was a strong explosion at the site. Presumably, an anti-aircraft radar station was also destroyed in addition to the ammunition depot.

▪️Ukrainian formations shelled Golaya Pristan, killing a married couple.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Frontline Report for the Morning of 10 Jan 2023; pub. 09:09⚡️

♦️There was mutual shelling in the #Kherson direction. Russian artillery hit AFU positions in the regional centre. The Ukrainian army, in turn, launched a rocket attack on Malyye Kopani. (Fig. 1)

♦️On the #Donetsk front, Russian forces again attacked near #Novomikhailovka. To the north they conducted offensives in the direction of #Pobeda. Not definitive, but only near a particular settlement. Also Russian troops resumed assault actions in the city limits of #Maryinka. The AFU is holding the defence. Additionally, the RF Armed Forces again launched an attack on the Ukrainian stronghold in #Krasnogorovka. In the north, they once again attempted to advance near #Pervomayskoye and #Vodyanoye. (Fig. 2)

♦️South of #Bakhmut, the Wagner PMC is pushing the Ukrainian army near #Kleshchiyevka. It is also conducting assault operations on the south-eastern and eastern outskirts of the city itself. And to the north it is advancing near #Podgorodnoye. The Wagner PMC covers #Soledar from two directions. In the south in the area of Krasnaya Gora, in the north from the direction of #Yakovlevka. Fierce ground fighting and in the city limits of #Soledar. (Fig. 3)

♦️In the #Lugansk direction Russian army attacked near #Chervonopopovka and towards #Stelmakhovka. (Fig. 4)

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ #Podgorodnoye Captured - Reported by DPR's MFA⚡️

⚡️ As of January 11, 2023, the Armed Forces of Russia liberated #Podgorodnoye on the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic.

❗️ The liberation of the settlement of #Podgorodnoye in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) allows the Allied troops to gain a foothold in the direction of #Soledar.

⚠️ We are waiting for further confirmation!

🚨 And it is more important for the assault on #Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut), southwest of the settlement (very close), cause the area towards #Soledar is also under Russian control!

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Battle for #Soledar - Situation until 15:00 on 11 Jan 2023⚡️

♦️The Wagner PMCs are clearing the cauldron on the western outskirts of #Soledar, where about 400 enemy militants are trapped. Some of them surrender with frostbitten limbs.

▪️Russian troops are still not in full control of the town. Ukrainian units have taken up defensive positions near #Blagodatnoye and Sol railway station, as well as in #Razdolovka and #Veseloye.

▪️The Ukrainian command is working on the option of a counterattack on the lost positions. 500 servicemen of the Territorial Defence Brigade are planned to be transferred to #Seversk from the #Sumy Region.

However, the likelihood of such a plan being implemented is extremely low. All roads and supply routes are under the RF Armed Forces' fire control, while Russian servicemen have occupied dominating heights.

▪️ Russian paratroopers in the area of Krasnyaya Gora and #Paraskovievka continue their offensive from the direction of #Podgorodnoye. The Airborne Forces are clearing the adjacent areas of Ukrainian militants. The paratroopers have not yet gained full control of the settlements.

📌 The liberation of #Soledar, a major AFU defence node in the operational area, is practically complete.

A significant part of the garrison has been withdrawn to #Seversk.

The fall of #Soledar, together with the advance at #Opytnoye and #Kleshchiyevka, changes the operational situation in the #Bakhmut direction. The former #Artyomovsk will be surrounded from the south, east and north, and the route to Chasov Yar will be cut off by artillery fire.

#Seversk and the surrounding villages (#Belogorovka and #Serebryanka), where the forces of the 81st Airborne Brigade, reinforced by American mercenaries, are concentrated in anticipation of an attack on #Kremennaya and #Rubizhnoye, will be directly threatened.

For this reason, the Ukrainians' intention to launch a counterattack is justified not only because of the loss of image, but also because of the strategic situation. Otherwise, the AFU will be forced to retreat to the second line of defence in the #Slavyansk agglomeration.

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

♦️#Belgorod Region

▪️ Ukrainian terrorist formations shelled the village of Stary Khutor in Valuysky urban district and the town of #Shebekino. At least six people were injured, one woman was seriously wounded.

♦️#Starobelsk Direction:

▪️ No significant changes in the areas. Positional fighting and artillery duels continue along the line of contact.

♦️#Soledar Direction (MAP):

▪️ The battle for #Soledar is coming to a close. Yevgeny Prigozhin has declared the complete liberation of the town from the enemy. According to him, at least 500 AFU militants were eliminated during the assault.
Units of the Wagner PMC are combing and clearing the network of underground communications in the mines of #Soledar.
Ukrainian formations withdrawn from the settlement have taken up defence in the area of #Blagodatnoye and the Sol railway station, as well as in #Razdolovka and #Veseloye.
Russian paratroopers are advancing from the side of #Podgorodnoye in the area of Krasnaya Gora and #Paraskovievka.

▪️ In the Bakhmut sector, Russian Wagnerian assault troops have liberated #Opytnoye south of Bakhmut.

▪️ The Ukrainian command is considering a counterattack. The loss of the #Soledar key defence node threatens AFU control over #Bakhmut, #Seversk and other surrounding settlements.

Otherwise, the enemy troops will have to retreat to the second line of defence in the #Slavyansk - #Kramatorsk - #Konstantinovka area.

♦️#Lugansk People's Republic:

▪️ Overnight, Ukrainian terrorist formations fired HIMARS rockets at residential buildings in #Chernukhino village.

▪️ In the morning, enemy militants shelled shelled #Zolotoye 2 with rocket artillery and damaged a building of a former road transport company.

♦️#Donetsk Direction:

▪️ RF Armed Forces motorized riflemen continue fighting in the centre of #Maryinka. Russian artillery strikes AFU positions on the western outskirts of the town.

▪️ The Ukrainian terrorists shelled populated areas of the #Donetsk agglomeration. Among others, residential buildings in #Gorlovka were hit. One civilian was killed.

♦️#Zaporozhye Region:

▪️ Ukrainian commanders are amassing manpower and equipment in the #Orekhov section in preparation for a possible offensive.

▪️ Artillery duels continue along the line of contact. Russian forces have hit enemy concentrations in #Olgovskoye, #Zaliznichnoye, Malaya Tokmachka, #Gulyaypole and #Stepovoye.

♦️#Kherson Direction on Southern Front:

▪️ Russian artillery struck enemy concentrations in #Kherson, #Antonovka, #Dudchany, #Mylovoye and Zolotaya Balka.

In turn, the Ukrainian terrorist formations shelled the village of #Korsunka with mortars, damaging a gas pipeline. Civilians were not injured.
