[Oct09 #Donbas thread]

19:48 #Makiivka: "Some kind of war has started. Didn't happen a long time"
How Zelenskyi keeps trying to get rid of Klitschko
16:12 #Donetsk: 07:00-07:15 war in the north; all day at #YaBP, not intense, but constant explosions. Looks like to #61 in square [=tactical sign of a mil unit] new 'humanitarian aid' has arrived or they have dug them out of a coalmine - brand-new Ural trucks
11:35 #Horlivka: There was a ground frost this morning... track traces at #Kochegarka, nothing more interesting
Oct08 23:24 [#Makiivka]: Since ~23:30 by now they'e been actively pounding with a large calibre. The direction is #Yasynuvata
"Update: since 23:20, pretty frequent, 4-5 salvos a minute"
23:48 Intense pounding, 5-8 salvos a minute
17:55 #Makiivka: It is sometimes rumbling, the direction of #Mineralne
19:15 #Donetsk #Biryuzova: The evening is not quiet, I've come home, it was noisy some 30 minutes outdoors. Various [weapons] were heard, from machine guns up to heavy guns. Frequently. Now kind of ceased, but it rubmles from time to time. No perfect silence
19:47 #Horlivka: Somehow, I didn't hear war today...
19:51 Though [military] Ural trucks are moving around
20:01 #Svitlodarsk: Half asleep in the morning, I heard something (or it seemed); at the day-time occurred rare gunfire, but the [official] commmunique says it did happen [=mortar fire in the area]
19:51 #Makiivka: Big ones started, f*ck! [=large calibre shots or explosions]
19:57 Quiet, how long for? Dunno
20:10 #Donetsk: [forum] About 18:00 down #Universytetska towards #Vetka moved a Kamaz truck, tactical sign #27. Later a distant single ka-boom
20:18 #Taramchuk: Hey #Marinka, it is the disengagement that started over there? [ka-booms]
20:25 #Horlivka: And here goes gunfire bit by bit, and I was about to think... [=that it would be quiet]
20:01 #Makiivka: Don't give me the "it didn't happen for a long time". From 16:30 mortars are pounding from the direction of #Yasynuvata. I don't write at once - have a lot of ruming, damn heating season with pipes leaking everywhere
2/2 ...and Zelenskyy intends to withdraw Ukrainian troop not only in Stanytsia Luhanska (where he did) and in Zolote, Petrivske where it's about to happen, but also along the entire front line
1/2 "Well, now a host at @prm_ua has voiced what was on my mind: I don't want the peace [Zelenskyy tries to negotiate] too, because it won't be peace, but loss of sovereignty"
@prm_ua 2/2 "Have we, the internally displaced, floundered in vain at stinky [rented] apartments in order to go hat in hand to separ[atist]s?"
@prm_ua 20:00 #Debaltseve: [vk] We're listening, and that's very strong
#Makiivka: Makiivka can hear the direction of #YaBP, has hit strong
@prm_ua 20:00 #Horlivka: In the area of #Kalynove a heavy machine gun is heard working
@prm_ua 21:00 #Makiivka: In the morning the in-out sounds of arty or mortars - probably both - woke us up. Fr/07:00 till 07:10 was the wakeup. Didn't happen for a few months. And all day it rumbled fr/time to time, sometimes relatively intense until the evening. It continues the same way
@prm_ua Cronyism at full swing: "Wife of justice minister appointed as deputy minister of digital policies"
@prm_ua 1/2 22:10 #Donetsk: Withdwawing! [=sarcasm] In the morning #Olimpieva st was white after traces of 3 [pairs of] tracks, "aboriginals" say they [saw them] moving traditionally after 23:00 from the north to the south.
@prm_ua 2/2 #Donetsk: And at 17:50 at [Pushkina] Blvd one could hear the process of the "pulling back", for some five times they "withdrew" it in the area of the #airport with kind of 82mm [mortars]
@prm_ua 22:17 #Horlivka: Intense gunfire. Somemtimes [also something] heavier
@prm_ua 22:22 #Svitlodarsk: After 22:02 some 10 ones of at least 82mm [calibre], behind the #Novoluhanske hill
22:43 At 22:30 two and now three at least 82mm to the hill, not like a DRG; large calibre small arms [too, yet] not too active
