SitRep - 22/10 - "So it begins"
An overview of the daily events during the war in Ukraine. With a special look at #Kherson and #Bakhmut. Today unfortunately we saw massive cruise missile attack on critical infrastructure of Ukraine resulting in outages.
We start with the Russian losses. Compared to yesterday we see a normal rate. We are working towards 70.000.
Overnight Russia tried to strike Ukraine again with a lot of drones. The AFU shot down 10. Unfortunately some hit their destination, inflicting minor but hard damage. Also 18 cruise missiles were shot down this morning.
General Staff specified the final data on today's missile attacks: 🇷🇺 used 40 cruise missiles and 16 kamikaze drones, of which 20 missiles and 11 drones were shot down. The rest struck the energy system of Ukraine, as a result a number of regions were left without electricity...
A total of 2 KA-52 attack helicopters were shot down today in #Kherson region.
In #Shebekino, Belgorod region the AFU struck targets.
The EU handed over trucks to the AFU!
Kherson-axis:
➡️Unconfirmed reports that AFU liberated #Mylove. We wait for visual confirmation...
➡️The villages of Charivne and Chkalove are believed to be left by Russian forces. The towns are located south of Davydiv-Brid. Based on local sources.
➡️The flag is flying at the railway track over the Kosheva River in SW Kherson. Likely partisans
➡️Rosselkhoznadzor is burning documents
➡️The remaining administration in #Kherson urges everyone to leave TODAY.
➡️Single boats were brought to #Kherson
Bakhmut axis:
✅AFU has pushed back 🇷🇺 troops to the M03 crossing area after taking over the asphalt plant area. Russians pushed away from eastern suburbs.
➡️AFU slightly widened the area of control east of #Ivanhrad. Big attack was repulsed this night
Confirmed by 🇷🇺 sources
➡️Footage appeared from 🇺🇦 in Zaitseve. It is geolocated south of Bakhmut. We are looking for the date of release. It tells a lot about the situation. To be continued.
➡️Russian pushes in #Soledar seem stalled. AFU pushes forward.
NOTE: the frontline is fluid and changes (!)
More footage appeared from Bakhmut.
I can be brief on other fronts. A lot of things happen in Kupyansk-Svatove, only it's not safe to mention it now. In Zaporizhia we slowly move forward.
Some of the trophies.
That's all for today. If you like my reporting and mapping you can support me via buymeacoffee.com/noelreports.
Nothing is mandatory, but very much appreciated.
Tomorrow more updates and more maps.
Cheers,
NOËL 🔥🇺🇦
