📌 In Bakhmut direction

My source in Konstantinovka said that the movement of the military has intensified through the settlement over the past few days:

▪️ Georgians (I think they mean mercenaries) with equipment are being transferred in the direction of Bakhmut himself

▪️ more personnel and equipment arrive and are deployed in the vicinity of Konstantinovka

At the same time, about five days ago, a source wrote to me that the military, on the contrary, was leaving the city. Moreover, the quote, " faster than usual ."

There are three options here: the enemy began to actively prepare for defense, or vice versa, he wants to increase pressure on Bakhmut's flanks, or it's just a rotation. In general, all options are equally likely.

But the main thing is that the enemy apparently does not intend to freeze the front in this direction. Although so far all combat activity has been reduced mainly to artillery duels.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ War Map and the Situation on the Fronts in the Evening of 24 May 2023; pub. 00:05⚡️

⚓️ The AFU, using surface unmanned boats, attacked the Russian Navy ship Ivan Khurs, which is carrying out tasks to ensure the security of the Turkish Stream and Blue Stream gas pipelines. As a result, our sailors repelled the UBV attack, and also destroyed all targets. The Kiev regime has already used similar naval drones for attacks on ships in #Sevastopol.

⚔️ The Situation on the Fronts over the past Day:

🔹#Svatovo - #Kremennaya Direction:

Russian forces are advancing near #Masyutovka, attempting to expand their zone of control near the #Oskol River. Also ours attacked in the vicinity of #Belogorovka, having previously worked off the militants with artillery.

🔹#Donetsk Direction:

The Russian Defence Ministry said the command and control post of the 110th AFU Brigade near #Avdeyevka have been hit. Our fighters continue to try to encircle the city, attacking near #Novokalinovo and advancing towards #Severnoye.
Russian army fighters also stormed #Pervomayskoye and the western part of #Maryinka.

💥Air Defence Systems shot down an Ukrainian MiG-29 in the #Grigorovka region of the DPR.

💡 In Modern Warfare, armoured vehicles are critical. It provides protection, support and mobility on the battlefield. Logically, any tank, BMP, APC and others cannot stay in serviceable condition forever. Especially at the front line, where damaged vehicles have to be somehow evacuated. Here, the brainchild of Kurganmashzavod, the Beglyanka BREM-L, which is a front-line evacuator based on the BMP-3, will come to the rescue. What tasks does the machine perform and why? Explains Readovka.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🧚‍♀️ Opinion on Zaluzhny and the Real Threat ⚡️

🦉In the famous fairy tale by Aleksey Tolstoy "The Golden Key" there is a stunning fragment: "The owl put his ear to Pinocchio's chest.
"The patient is more dead than alive," she whispered, and turned her head back a hundred and eighty degrees.
The toad kneaded Pinocchio with a wet paw for a long time. Thinking, she looked with bulging eyes in different directions at once. She slapped with her big mouth:
"The patient is more alive than dead..."

In this vein, there is a discussion in the mass media about the disappearance of Valery Zaluzhny from the wide air after the strike of the Russian Aerospace Forces on the command center near #Kherson. In reality, the health of the Commander-in-chief of the AFU should be of least interest to us. He did not control the army of the Ukrainian Nazis, but his masters from #NATO.

If Zaluzhny is alive, healthy, injured or just being treated for alcoholism - #Russia does not care about this. There will be no Zaluzhny, they will find some "Panikovsky or Ailing", they will spread it well and launch it into a propaganda carousel. After all, the British and Americans have always changed puppets easily and naturally. And therefore the Russians need to think about something completely different.

Following the #UK, #France intends to supply missiles for aviation (with a range of 250 and up to 500 km), and similar to Storm Shadow, only having a different name - SCALP-EG. And this is a real threat to Russian cities, and not the recovery of the "great" Zaluzhny.

#Lugansk has already suffered terribly from British missiles. The French SCALP-EG will also reap their bloody harvest if they fall into the hands of the Ukronazis.

📌 Retaliatory Measures are needed so that the hypocritical peacemaker Macron starts stuttering in his Elysee Palace. But we're all running around with the Zaluzhny…

◾On May 24, the head of the Donetsk People’s Republic announced that there were no more civilians in the city of Artemovsk (Bakhmut). All civilians were evacuated by the Wagner fighters.

Wagner’s PMCs ensured the safety of civilians who remained in the city during the heavy battles, as well as after the city came under their full control. The last civilians left their basements the day before.

People have been forced to hide in their basements since February. Today they tell their stories and describe their lives side by side with the Ukrainian military during hostilities.

👉 Ukrainian Post
Heavy fighting continues on the flanks of the Bakhmut direction.

The defense forces had some successes in the Klishchiivka area. But we still do not control the village itself. There, the enemy is pressing hard and trying to hit our flank.

On another section, ours had a little more success, they took one of the heights, improving their tactical position.

Therefore, this is how our counterattacks continue very slowly and very gradually.

The Bakhmut direction remains the most difficult with the highest intensity of fighting.
