⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 15 Dec 2023 by 19:23⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, our army is diligently worsening the situation of the AFU. Based on reports from the field, our troops are not giving the enemy the opportunity to rotate. The next boats on the #Dnieper were hit. Yesterday, our anti-aircraft gunners shot down an Mi-8 helicopter near #Tyaginka. Despite these point successes, the situation for our army remains difficult. Our military cannot suppress the Ukrainian artillery, which is in full force on the other bank. The AFU shell the rear settlements on the left bank. By morning, three people were seriously wounded on the #Alyoshki - #Radensk motorway. A second drone strike attacked an ambulance that had travelled to the site. Fortunately, the medics were not injured.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, our units are entrenched in new positions after advancing at #Verbovoye. At #Rabotino, the initiative also remains on our side, the Russians are moving forward. The weather still does not allow the full use of armored vehicles, but the artillery is working at full strength on both sides.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction at #Maryinka, our forces are consolidating on the outskirts and continuing their advance along the reservoir. Southwest of the town there are again local successes at #Pobeda. Here our military still have to fight for key heights. Near #Novomikhaylovka without changes, heavy clashes are ongoing.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, the operation to encircle #Avdeyevka continues. The enemy is also preparing for an assault and is actively gathering reserves. On the southern flank, the battle line is unchanged. Ice makes it difficult to move equipment. Therefore, attacks on the ground have slowed down. Our army has intensified the work of the TOSs. On the northern flank, our forces are advancing on a broad front towards #Novokalinovo and #Berdychi. At #Tochmash, our infantry has made significant advances along the railway tracks. From #Stepovoye it is reported that about two-thirds of the village is under our control, as are the plantings around it. North of #Stepovoye, ours have consolidated to the west of the railway tracks.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, our forces continue the fierce assault on AFU positions towards #Krasnoye (#Ivanovskoye). Over the past two days, ours significantly expanded the zone of control on the western outskirts of the so-called dachas. On the northern flank, at #Bogdanovka, our military managed to entrench on the eastern outskirts of the village. We also advanced to the southeastern outskirts of Orekhovo-Vasilyevka. Southwards, near #Kleshcheyevka our army is storming the heights northwest of the village. The AFU still manages to hold positions, and ours are able to maintain control over the dominant height and complicate their logistics.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, counter battles continue in the northern part of #Sinkovka. Active clashes have resumed near #Ivanovka. Our army is trying to break through the AFU defences at the #Zagoruykovka - #Timkovka - #Kislovka line. So far, without much success.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Frontline #Summary for the Morning of 16 December 2023; pub. 10:01⚡️

🔹In the #Zaporozhye direction, the RF Armed Forces continued pressure on the Ukrainian troops in the village of #Rabotino from the west and south. In turn, the AFU tried to advance in the #Verbovoye area.⚠️ There were no significant changes in the frontline at any of the sites. (Fig. 1)

🔹On the #Donetsk Front, Russian forces continue their offensive on #Novomikhaylovka from the south and southeast with the aim of levelling the frontline and cutting off the AFU's ledge. Also, after the practical capture of #Maryinka, they are concentrating their efforts on the assault on #Pobeda, where is a powerful Ukrainian fortification.⚠️ The AFU are holding their positions. ⚠️Russian troops managed to advance at #Nevelskoye. They also attacked in the industrial zone southeast of #Avdeyevka, in the area of #Stepovoye (not to be confused with the settlements of the same name in the Zaporozhye and Ugledar directions) and near #Berdychi.⚠️ There is a slight advance in the last of these areas. (Fig. 2)

🔹In the #Bakhmut Direction, the RF Armed Forces continued their offensive on the heights northwest of #Kleshcheyevka, on the side of #Khromovo and near #Bogdanovka.⚠️ Ukrainian troops do not leave the occupied defence lines. (Fig. 3)

🔹In the #Lugansk Direction, counter fighting continued in the #Serebryanskoye forest area southeast of #Dibrova. The RF Armed Forces are attacking in the direction of #Terny, near #Kislovka and #Sinkovka.⚠️ The frontline has not changed significantly. (Fig. 4)

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 16 Dec 2023 by 18:54⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, the AFU's attempts to expand its zone of control and the Russian army's desire to levelling these attempts are unchanged. Already the overseas New York Times recognises that holding the foothold in #Krynki is a "suicide mission". Nevertheless, part of #Krynki will also remain behind the enemy. From there, the AFU are trying to attack our positions in the forest from the ruins of the village. In #Tyaginka ours struck an ammunition depot, and hit nine boats on the #Dnieper.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, our forces took new positions to the north of #Verbovoye. Combat work to regain the positions abandoned in the summer is methodically continuing. From the field, they report on the powerful work of artillery on the retreating AFU forces and their serious losses. Unfortunately, there are also significant losses in the ranks of our army.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, our units are advancing in #Novomikhaylovka. We have gained a foothold on the northeastern outskirts and reached the warehouses in the south. Thus, the village is semi-encircled. Fighting continues on the approaches. Our forces have not entered the village itself yet. The density of mines and positions of the AFU complicate the assault. Over the past few days, we have managed to make significant progress near #Pobeda and partially bypass the so called "Menagerie", a powerful fortified area of the AFU on the territory of a former animal farm. The cleansing of #Maryinka is nearing completion.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, at the #Avdeyevka front, fighting continues in #Stepovoye, a part of our forces are bypassing the village from the north towards #Ocheretino. There are advances at the Coke Plant, we are waiting for news from the stormtroopers. On the southern flank, our troops continue to advance along Yasinovatsky Lane, connecting the Industrial Zone and the southern outskirts of #Avdeyevka. There were reports that our army hit a AFU officers' base in the #Avdeyevka direction with a Tornado-S MLRS missile with a range of 120 km.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, our units are advancing northwest of #Kleshcheyevka. The AFU are holding their positions firmly. Fierce fighting continues here, as well as west of the city and near #Bogdanovka. Our army is dealing massive blows to the positions of the AFU in Chasov Yar.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, fighting continues in #Sinkovka. Powerful attacks of our army are reported from the field. Fighting continues in the #Serebryanskoye forest. At #Terny and #Kislovka, our forces are attacking, but so far without advances.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 14 Jan 2024 by 20:08⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, today, exactly 3 months ago, the AFU have been taking a small area of territory in the #Krynki village under control. From 100 to 300 Ukrainian soldiers are constantly present in the center of the village, replacing each other under constant heavy fire from our army. They write that they are trying to supply them with drones. With rotation, this course, will not work for them.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, our forces retook several more positions west of #Rabotino and southwest of #Verbovoye. Ours pay a lot of attention to the defeat of enemy equipment and reserves by artillery and drones.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, heavy oncoming battles continue near #Novomikhaylovka. Our military is consolidating in the recently conquered positions. Building on the success of #Georgiyevka and #Pobeda, they took some more positions.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, our forces of the have taken control of several AFU key strongholds in #Pervomayskoye on the southern #Avdeyevka front, clearing is underway. Active fighting continues at #Nevelskoye, #Severnoye and #Tonenkoye. On the northern flank, our army entered the territory of the #Ivushka village, which is southwest of the sewage treatment plants near Coke Plant. They are also storming the AFU positions in the village of #Ivushka2. In the northeast of #Stepovoye, ours also advanced. However, our forces do not have full control over the territory of the village, moreover, the AFU have transferred well-trained squads there.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, on the southern flank, positional battles continue near #Kleshcheyevka and #Andreevka. The control area from #Khromovo has been expanded. On the heights, our troops took four more enemy strongholds, despite the zealous resistance of the AFU.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, in the #Kremennaya sector, ours report the defeat of two AFU armored vehicles and a howitzer at #Dibrova. In the #Kupyans sector, there are oncoming battles at #Sinkovka and #Kislovka. Positions are constantly changing hands, most of the latter is in the grey zone.

💥It is confirmed that yesterday’s strike on western #Ukraine destroyed a batch of missiles for the Patriot air defence system. Today, our Aerospace Forces launched another attack on theAFU's air-shell depot in #Dolgintsevo, #Dnepropetrovsk region. Systematic attacks by our army on airfields and infrastructure may cause Western countries to delay the process of transferring F-16 fighters to #Ukraine.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 19 Jan 2024 by 19:40⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, our most effective UAV operator with the call sign Moses died in #Krynki.. Governor Saldo reported that a group of about 80 AFU men remain in the settlement. They are being helped from the right bank by artillery and mortars.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, on the #Rabotino - #Verbovoye line, there are oncoming battles. By pulling up reserves, the AFU has made it more difficult for our forces to retake their positions and has achieved de facto parity of forces. However, there is a high probability that the forces gathered there will be sent elsewhere to plug holes in the defence.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, in the western part, the front remains also standing and the AFU have also reinforced. In the #Maryinka sector, our artillery and drones are hitting AFU positions in #Novomikhaylovka and #Georgiyevka. On the ground in a day without advancement, ours are consolidating and waiting for reinforcement. Probably the AFU attacks will intensify, cause #Novomikhaylovka, is a lever of pressure on #Ugledar.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, our forces are storming the southeastern outskirts of #Avdeevka from the industrial zone. Reinforced by reserves, ours advanced and gained a foothold in the southwest of the #Vinogradniki village, leveling the ledge of the industrial zone. Fierce fighting is ongoing at Tsarskaya Okhota. This is a powerful AFU stronghold, a former recreation centre, in the very south of the arc covering #Avdeyevka from two sides. In #Pervomayskoye there are also successes. Ours are moving along Voroshilova Street. There is an advance from the direction of #Kamenka. The immediate task is to clear the area near Goluboye Lake. The situation of the AFU is difficult, but they are not desperate, they are fighting and are not thinking of surrendering.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, on the #Kurdyumovka - #Andreyevka line, our troops are levelling the front along the railway line. The enemy here is deprived of initiative, but can maneuver all the way to #Ozaryanovka, while ours are hampered by mortar batteries west of the Kurdyumov Dam. All the same difficulties with counterbattery combat as in #Krynki, for example.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, on the #Seversk front, our forces are storming the heights at #Vesyoloye, To the east, ours have approached the borders of #Belogorovka (#LPR). They are in no hurry to attack head-on, they go around from the south, they have already established a foothold in the treatment plants. However, the bypass is also not easy. The AFU are covering with guns from the landings. Further north, our forces are advancing from #Vladimirovka towards #Krakhmalnoye and #Tabayevka. In the #Kupyansk sector, between #Kislovka and #Novoselovskoye, ours have advanced and taken a part of the N-26 motorway under fire control.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 20 Jan 2024 by 20:24⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, most of #Krynki remains in the grey zone. Our forces' attempts to gain a foothold in the village have been unsuccessful so far. But they managed to push the AFU back to the bank and to the forest belt. A captured AFU said that sending them to the left bank was a punishment. When planning the operation they did not take into account the number of small islands, sand dunes and ground water, it is impossible to entrench. And taking into account the way ours "iron" the enemy with aviation and artillery, the chances of survival are minimal. By the way, Ukrainian resources claim that the floodgates of the dams in #Kremenchuk and #Dnepropetrovsk have recently been opened. Allegedly in this way the AFU want to flood the islands, simplifying the supply of the AFU on the right bank.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, without changes, there is an exchange of artillery strikes and drones are working closely.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, near #Staromayorskoye, the AFU tried to reinforce with reserves. Our army disrupted the rotation and cleared four strongholds. In the #Maryinka sector, our forces continue to suppress the activity of the AFU garrison in #Novomikhaylovka with TOS fire. On the southwestern side, our forces have retaken a number of other positions. A video has emerged of a strike on an important AFU defence hub, the South Donbasskaya-3 (YUD-3) mine near #Ugledar. The main thing is that the mine buildings survived and can continue to be used. And without the capture of the YUD-3 and YUD-1 mines, the assault on #Ugledar is fraught with heavy losses for us, as it already happened a year ago, when the firing points and observation posts at the mines were not suppressed during the offensive on the town.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, Ukrainian resources claim that our army has taken Tsarskaya Okhota and is reaching the outskirts of #Avdeyevka. According to my information, our military has really advanced well, taking major positions, but they have not yet entered the city itself. Our forces are levelling the front from the Industrial Zone.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, on the northern flank of the city, in #Bogdanovka our military raised the Russian flag. The village has not been cleared yet, but the AFU is withdrawing from the centre. The AFU garrison is standing at #Kalinovo, the village right by Chasov Yar. On the western front, near #Ivanovskoye (#Krasnoye), our forces have advanced, and 500-700m remain to storm the village. Its capture will also increase the pressure on Chasov Yar.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, after the successful advance at #Vesyoloye and #Belogorovka in the #Seversk sector, our forces are suppressing the enemy in the vicinity of #Spornoye. Our offensive is complicated by a serious AFU armoured group. Further north, in the direction of #Krasnyliman, the AFU is actively building fortifications on the right bank of the #Zherebets River, recognising that they have no forces to defend the bridgehead on the left bank near #Terny and #Yampolovka. Our army has so far achieved only tactical successes, but operational developments can be expected. In the #Kupyansk sector, our forces are attacking the AFU positions near #Tabayevka and #Krakhmalnoye from the direction of #Vladimirovka instead of the more fortified #Sinkovka and #Kislovka.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 21 Jan 2024 by 19:55⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, our forces are reducing the AFU's zone of control in #Krynki, targeting and hitting Ukrainian guns on the right bank.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, our army again attacks towards #Rabotino from the west and from #Novoprokopovka. The AFU responds near #Verbovoye with artillery, mortars, kamikaze drones. Due to the dense AFU fire, there is not much left of our forward positions, ours have moved back 500m.

🔹In the #SouthDonetsk Direction, near #Novomikhaylovka, the AFU tried to reinforce their positions, unsuccessfully. Our artillery is literally wiping out firing points and up to 16 strongholds. At #Georgiyevka, our forces are obviously waiting for reinforcements for a decisive assault on the village. In the meantime, we have carefully marched up to half a kilometre westwards towards #Kurakhovo (⚠️in the village).

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, our army's bold advance on the southern outskirts of #Avdeyevka has been confirmed. Spurred by this success, ours continue. Part of the streets have moved into the grey zone, the AFU are leaving their positions and there are no forces to close the perimeter. According to a rough estimate, 1/10th of the city is under our control. It doesn't seem like much, but the AFU defence in #Avdeyevka is on the verge of a foul. At #Vinogradniki, ours passed up to 0.5km in a day. Our helicopters are working in the area of the filtration station, obviously there will be attacks here as well.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, our forces expand their positions on in #Bogdanovka. Our flag in the village, was very annoying for the AFU. They spent a lot of shells just to take it down. The main AFU forces have been pushed back to the western part, and in the eastern part our forces are clearing the bridgehead. Ours, having tracked the launch site of the drones, conducted a powerful blow, like a thermobar. The AFU retreated between #Ivanovskoye (#Krasnoye) and #Kleshcheyevka, but they already say that the new lines are also unfavourable.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, our army has liberated #Krakhmalnoye. After 9 months of heavy fighting on the fortified lines at #Sinkovka - #Petropavlovka and #Ivanovka - #Kislovka, our forces suddenly attacked from #Vladimirovka, broke through the defence, going into the rear of the enemy for about 1 km, with a front width of 4 km. Despite statements about the low importance of the village, the map suggests otherwise. Our main goal is to break through to the left bank of #Kupyansk. The advance of our forces along the riverbed to the west and the liberation of the villages will create a reserve on the southern flank of #Kupyansk. The intention of the Russian command is unclear, but the increased activity of ours may foreshadow quick decisive actions, as in #Maryinka and #Avdeyevka.

💥At night, our Aerospace Forces attacked the Nova Poshta warehouse in #Selidovo (this is #DPR, still under the AFU). Since the beginning of the conflict, mail has been part of the military supply of the AFU.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 22 Jan 2024 by 20:15⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, our forces note a decrease in the intensity of the AFU's strikes. Mortars and tanks have been striking from the right bank for the past few days. Perhaps this is a sign of their shell starvation. Dense fire is maintained only in #Krynki from the direction of #Tyaginka. Taking advantage of the warming weather, the AFU tried to rotate and supply the springboard in #Krynki. They were met with increased fire of our army from all types of weapons and suffered losses, at least 80 people and a lot of different equipment.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, the parity of forces remains unchanged. Our side is actively changing the composition of the military on the frontline, guys are sent to rest. Hopefully, with the arrival of new forces our offensive will become more active.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, in the #Maryinka sector, our forces advanced a few hundred metres further in #Georgiyevka from the side of the temple. At #Novomikhaylovka our troops took two more heights.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, in the south of #Avdeyevka, after taking control of the Tsarskaya Okhota fortified area, our forces are moving southwest along Sobornaya Street. The street is long and in the northwest it runs into St. Nicholas Church and Avdeyevka Station. Further advance will allow us to occupy the Khimik neighbourhood. And this is the key to the AFU positions in the area of #Severnoye and #Tonenkoye. It should be understood that the AFU's fortifications are located in a dense urban area, with buried concrete fortifications. On the northern flank, heavy fighting is ongoing in the grey zone of #Stepovoye, where the AFU are holding back our breakthrough to #Berdychi.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, in #Bogdanovka, the AFU control the western third of the village. Our army's immediate task is to drive the enemy out of the forest belt parallel to #Bogdanovka, from where the AFU are shelling our forces in the centre of the village. At the same time, the enemy retains the potential for counterattacks. The AFU are taking advantage of the fact that our forces do not have full control over the heights yet and are pulling up their forces. Between #Kleshcheyevka and #Ivanovskoye (#Krasnoye), there is a fierce battle for the prospect of fire control over #Ivanovskoye.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, from the #Seversk sector, Ukrainian sources report that our forces are using tunnels, suddenly appearing at AFU positions from underground. We have heard from our own that the AFU near #Seversk is also using deepening tactics to store fuel tanks in order to minimise losses in the event of our strikes. In the #Liman sector, our aviation and artillery are working powerfully on AFU positions in the #Kremennaya forests. In the #Kupyansk sector, our forces expanded their zone of control north of the N-26 motorway. They managed to get closer to #Kislovka and #Kotlyarovka. These actions support the recent advance of our army near #Krakhmalnoye, where the AFU is now trying to counterattack.

💥Our forces struck the industrial zone in #Kramatorsk. The AFU used it to store military equipment. An attack on the air defence complexes in #Odessa is also expected, the results are still unknown.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 27 Jan 2024 by 19:39⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, there is scorched earth in #Krynki. Less than a hundred AFUshnikovs are holding less than 1 sq.km. Replenishment and supply is a non-trivial task. As for ours, to withstand fire from the right bank and drones. The aggravation is in the #Peschanovka area, between #Poyma and #Podstepnoye, near the railway bridge. It seems that the AFU have decided to create a new bridgehead there. Our forces are sinking boats and nullifying the attempts of the landing force.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, our army has slightly advanced west of #Verbovoye. The AFU attacked near #Novoprokopovka, but ours fought back.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, our forces are moving in #Georgiyevka to #Kurakhovo. Some will say that the speed is not the most impressive, and this is true, but it is kinder to the fighters, and the AFU are slowly moving towards #Kurakhovo.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, the AFU commander in #Avdeyevka, Tarnavsky, said that the our army is increasing the number of attacks, up to 50 battles in a day. The AFU are standing in the southern part of the city, holding back our offensive within the city. Ours do not miss the opportunity, they attack in other areas and have have advanced in the dachas near Coke Plant, from #Kamenka and near #Pervomayskoye. The AFU claims a significant advance of ours, ours are more modest in their assessments.

🔹In the #Bakhmut Direction, #Bogdanovka near Chasov Yar is mostly grey zone. Our forces and the AFU are on the two outskirts. Ours have withdrawn from the centre, but are bringing in reserves and equipment, for example, RBU-6000s, to hit AFU positions with a barrage of fire.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, in #Seversk sector, our forces are advancing near #Belogorovka on the northern and southern flanks, and our Lancets hit several self-propelled howitzers of the AFU. But in the #Liman sector, the AFU pulled up reserves. Our offensive at #Terny, #Yampolovka and #Torskoye has been slowed down. In the #Kupyansk sector, the AFU did not have enough for #Tabayevka. Ours broke through the defences in the south, the AFU is hastily leaving the village. And in #Kotlyarovka too. There are fierce battles in #Kislovka, ours are pressing on three sides. In the north, at #Sinkovka, the AFU lost a number of positions to ours, but overall there were no further change.

☠️ The AFU carried out a kamikaze drone raid on peaceful Novaya Kakhovka, a woman was wounded. Obviously, there will only be more such raids, we need EW and smart engineers.

💥 Our forces hit an ammunition depot in #Slavyansk. Locals write that the SBU are looking for the spotter. There were several strikes on AFU locations in #Kramatorsk and in Klugino-Bashkirovka, #Kharkov region.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 1 Feb 2024 by 21:22⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, no change in #Krynki. Not a village, but ruins. The surrounding areas are covered in craters from shells and aerial bombs. The AFUshniks are also trying to hide in them. Another group has been hit during the landing.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, northwest of #Verbovoye, the AFU managed to regain control of the western forest plantation. Perhaps our fighters were unable to confidently gain a foothold there under enemy artillery fire. Now the AFU are shelling the neighboring forest plantation and intend to try to take it too. Quite an unexpected turn. At the same time, I see no preconditions for further AFU advances.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, a video of the battle at #Sladkoye, is going viral. Our army lost both people and a lot of equipment, knocked out by drones. Obviously, ours did not have EW. Despite heavy losses, ours managed to expand the control zone by 3 sq. km. North of #Novomikhaylovka, our forces established control over the road west of the second #Zverinets and advanced along the forest plantation by about 800m. Unfortunately, also with losses.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, the most active battles are taking place on the southern outskirts of #Avdeyevka. Our military managed to cope with the AFU counterattacks and advanced along Sportivnaya Street. Given that control over this street is difficult without advancing along Sobornaya and Chernyshevsky Streets, it is likely that the AFU has been displaced there as well. To the east, our forces are advancing southwest of the Donetsk Filtration Station and have taken several more positions from the AFU. Our artillery and aviation are helping, they are hitting the AFU and helping our forces to consolidate their positions. The station is about a km away, and along the way there is a network of strongholds in the forest. The fighting will not be easy.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, west of the city, our frces advanced along the route to #Ivanovskoye (#Krasnoye) and expanded the bridgehead. Northwest of #Kleshcheyevka, new heights have been taken, our initiative is not given up.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, in the #Seversk sector, #Spornoye fully justifies its name (controversial), the positions are changing hands. The shelling of the AFU stronghold near the reservoir was recorded. This indirectly confirms that ours again withdrew from the centre of the village and most of #Spornoye is again under the AFU. In the #Kupyansk sector, our forces have entered #Ivanovka and are advancing towards #Kislovka. From the recently taken heights west of #Tabayevka, ours control the logistics of the AFU. This worsens their position at #Kislovka, which is a powerful fortification. Apparently, we are aiming to take the village in pincers.

☠️ Our army lost another unit of the Black Sea Fleet. At night, a dozen AFU marine drones attacked the "Ivanovets" Rocket Boat on the roadstead of Lake Donuzlav, a bay on the western side of #Crimea. The boat received direct hits, the detonations led to the sinking of the vessel. Hopefully the crew was saved. Was there electronic warfare, why are there no booms? It is unlikely that we will hear answers to these questions. There were no official messages. As, by the way, about the A-50 aircraft. The AFU tried to attack the #Belbek Airfield. A missile fell in the wasteland between the runway and the airfield fence. The likely target is our air defence, but the AFU footage shows Pantsir outlets, so most likely the target was not reached. In #Donetsk, a man was killed by a drone and in #Gorlovka, a woman was wounded.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 5 Feb 2024 by 19:50⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, at #Krynki are cases of surrender and desertion reported. Garrison replenishment arrives on an ad hoc basis, boats are hit by our military. Allegedly the AFU promises their own large bonuses for "holding and expanding" the bridgehead, but this raises little motivation.

🔹In #Zaporozhye Direction, our military attacked the AFU positions near #Verbovoye this morning. In a short firefight, they dislodged the enemy and advanced 400m.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, our infantry is advancing in the eastern part of #Georgiyevka, as well as along the forest strip northwest of #Maryinka and in the area of the #Trudovskaya ventilation shaft.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, the sharpest clashes moved to the northern coverage of #Avdeyevka. Despite the stubborn resistance of the enemy, our forces with a wide front came close to the Golubye (Blue) Lakes quarry and advanced in the city limits.
📌 From the north to the city there is a key supply channel for the AFU garrison, passing through #Lastochkino. If our groups manage to advance to the railway and further to Industrial Avenue, they will be able to split the AFU group in two. In this case, the southern part may be completely deprived of supplies and reserves, and the main forces in the city center will be replenished from the Coke Plant, where many in-depth ammunition and provisions warehouses are concentrated. Now the AFU are faced with a choice, to throw all the Coke Plant forces into an attempt to eliminate the breakthrough or to withdraw troops from at least the southern and central parts of the city. At the same time, Zaluzhny, who is permanently dismissed, demands over and over again, in principle, to withdraw troops from #Avdeyevka, but Zelensky is delaying the decision, bringing the obvious denouement closer.
