Starting a new Rus - Ukr thread
Last one ended here
π·πΊπΊπ¦
No major movements on the map since my last update.
The only notable news is the reported entrance of Rus forces in Vovcherovka, 7 - 8 km south of #Lisichansk
The photos are reportedly from there but it's not known currently whether it's cleared completely
π·πΊπΊπ¦
Another interesting detail is that 2 small settlements Sinetski & Pavlograd (just across the river from #Lisichansk) are in the gray zone on the map.
The Rus probably haven't entered them likely due to being exposed to Ukr fire from the other bank

NY Times on the recent missile strikes
Zakharova called the statement of British PM Boris Johnson that any attempts to resolve the conflict in Ukr will only lead to increased instability in the world..monstrous!
The UK authorities are trying to distract attention from the internal political collapse with a Rus bogey

But lets continue...π
π·πΊπΊπ¦
Lots of reports on fighting going on around the #Lisichansk Refinery. There are clashes on the E, S and W side of it
IMO, Ukr in the refinery will need to neutralised before an advance to Lisichansk from the W side can commence in earnest. It also threatens the Seversk road
π·πΊπΊπ¦
Satellite pic of the area around the refinery showing fires from the fighting
π·πΊπΊπ¦
There is also heavy fighting going on in the Bakhmut area. Rus forces are pushing in the area between Klinovo and Vershina
π·πΊπΊπ¦
The #LPR authorities are optimistic & believe they will be able to capture #Lisichansk within a week.
The other frontlines appear to be stable with only local fights & artillery duels reported
π·πΊπΊπ¦

1 x BTG per 1 - 5km = offensive posture
1 x BTG per 5 - 15km = defensive posture

Regarding the Kremenchug Shopping Mall incident.
IMO going by footage & pics, it wasn't bombed directly but caught fire from the explosions at the factory which is just behind it

The Ukr are rushing reinforcements to #Seversk. It's believed they're planning to establish a new defence line running from Seversk to Bakhmut if/when the Lisichansk area falls.
