1/11 #Kherson update 24-08. π·πΊ forces attacked in different area's of the front presumably in anticipation of indepence day offensives,in this 𧡠the details.πΊπ¦ forces have been attacking supply lines & C&C continuesly last weeks.
2/11 In the Stanislav area, π·πΊ attacked Oleksandrivka some 2 week ago pushing πΊπ¦ back to positions N, last week πΊπ¦ forces countered. π·πΊ were pushed back to the S end of town.Burning vehicles have been seen on/near the T-1501 HWY. Town is now contested.
3/11 to the E, 28th mech. Brigade keeps supressing π·πΊ artillery in ShyrokaBalka area, π·πΊ forces tried to move NW from Sofiivka but where repelled on the line W of Doslidne by forward πΊπ¦ forces.Around Tomyna Balka reportedly multiple MLRS & art. were destroyed by πΊπ¦ artillery.
4/11 The line Molodetkse - Myrolyubivka seems static. πΊπ¦ forces consolidated control over Pravdyne, which was hit by π·πΊ art. last weekend. πΊπ¦forward positions in Myrne & Paryseve have strengthend. π·πΊ in these area's are being harrased by continues drone attacks & art. fire.
5/11 Kyselivka, πΊπ¦ seems to have taken full control of the town,π·πΊ forces started shelling the town last week.π·πΊ forces remain entrenched S along M14 HWY. A ctr-offensive was launched toward ZelenyiHay & Barvinok but was repelled by the πΊπ¦ 14th Mech division which are dugin there
6/11 The situation around Snihurivka is very fluid. Last week π·πΊ VDV attacked from there toward Partizanske. It was repelled & πΊπ¦ forces took positions in Luyubine & Shyroke. π·πΊ attacked toward Blahodatne en pushed πΊπ¦ forces out using heavy art. & are pushing north to Partizanske
7/11 The area around Partizanske is heavily fortfied along the canal behind the railway slope. Which runs from Pervomaiske to Snihurivka. To the left of Blahodatne the πΊπ¦ 63rd mech. Brigade is dugin near Kitneve. Rumor is a πΊπ¦ ctr-attack toward Blahodatne has allready started.
8/11 meanwhile more E Andriivka remains under πΊπ¦ control,the area around Blahodativka stays fluid, last week news appeared πΊπ¦ liberated the town, but π·πΊ art. pushed them out again. A push against Sukhyi Stavok failed, but πΊπ¦ forces advanced to 3km from Bruskynske.
9/11 meanwhile π·πΊ forces are preparing defenses around the bridges over the Dnipro river aswell as important transport hubs. Trenches & fortyfied areas have been build around, Antonovskyi bridge, Nova Khakova and Molodyzne (road turnpike).
10/11 The πΊπ¦ campaign of destroying π·πΊ supply lines & hubs continues with new attacks in Nova Khakova, Chornobaivka and many more places making resupply increasingly difficult. Antonovskyi bridge was hit again a 20m damaged area can be see on the south side on recent sat. images
11/11 important to remember is that many of the towns on the frontline should be considered contested since forces are moved back & forth around by ctr-attacks in these areas .Info used #OSINT,local sources,sat. data.
i have been monitoring the EW units in Kursk oblast and mainly the border region with extreme interest the last 6-9 months, drone defense exsisted of a number of Pole-21 gnss jamming stations placed strategically in border towns, complemented with Zithel-R331 mobile jamming
Units, which would not only jam but also record used frequencies by Ukrainian forces in these area's. These pole-21 systems would be mainly placed in cellphone or other comms masts, spaced about 5 km. apart. Thus creating a sort of overlapping wall of jamming.
In addition to this a number listening posts was established along the border area of the sumy and Kharkiv oblasts. All of these russian EW measures where under the responsability of the 16th EW brigade, which are based in Kursk.
Credible sources within the Ukrainian army and russian sources, are reporting the displacement of units of the 76th Guards Air Assault Division from the Kreminna/Svatove area to the harbor city of Berdyansk. Indications are at least 2 regiments have moved.
The 234th Guards Air Assault and 237th Guards Air Assault Regiments , who had been stationed between Kreminna and Svatove, with a command centre located in Milutavka, which is near the city of Svatove.
234th regiment is know for its involvement in the Bucha massacre both regiments suffered heavy losses in the war in Ukraine and have been replenished with Mobiks who had short training in camps just across the border in Russia (Rovenki) and near Nhyznoteple in Luhansk
1/3 Recently large numbers of tanks in the Pervomaiske area have been destroyed, also video's came out showing large numbers of assault forces (So-called SHO units) who surrender to πΊπ¦ forces.Another indication something was up in this area, the increased nr. of πΊπ¦ drone attacks
2/3 This could indicate part of the π·πΊ defensive lines around this part of the front might be weaker around Pervomais'ke then other parts, most likely also because units from this part were moved to support the 3rd army on the south flank of Bakhmut.
3/3 Today we learned that π·πΊ forces blew up the dam in the town of Karlivka, this dam not only holds the water in the Karlovska reservoir, but also a bridge on the E50 road toward Pervomais'ke, which is a main supply route for πΊπ¦ forces in the area.
1/3 Reliable sources on the ground near Soledar are reporting π·πΊ sapper units possible from 107th Seperate Guards Engineer-Sapper battalion, are activly mining roads leading out of Soledar. Several crossroads and fields have been mined with 100's of AT-62M mines.
2/3 This in it self can mean different things, either Russian & Wagner forces are preparing a retreat to more favourable defensive positions outside Soledar, or Russian forces are setting up obstacles to prevent the retreat of the Wagner forces stationed in Soledar.
3/3 In case of retreat of all forces from Soledar, the possibility is that they would fall back all the way to the defensive positions build a few months ago west of Popasna on the border between Luhansk & Donetsk. Time will tell when Soledar is liberated by πΊπ¦. #SlavaUkraΓ―ni
1/6 Elements of the 10th Tank regiment part of the newly formed 3rd π·πΊ army corps, arrived around 13th of may in the area of the town of Odradivka (48.494300,38.014800). They had previously been deployed near Avdiivka, were they were involved a multiple failed frontal assaults
2/6 In which they suffered serious losses including most of their tanks and IFV's. They had been regrouping near the town of Lysychansk and seems to have been re-plenished with new mobik recruits from all over Russia but mostly recruits from Buryatia.
3/6 Their arrival in the area south of Bakhmut is likely an attempt to stop Ukrainian advances in this area.The unit took up positions along the T0513 road between Odradivka and Optyne. Almost immediatly after their arrival shelling and drone attacks by πΊπ¦ forces took their toll.
1/15 I have been working on unraveling the π·πΊ logistics networks in the Luhansk area since the beginning of jan. When different geolocated videos showed convoy's of armoured vehicles moving towards the frontlines in Luhansk & Donetsk
2/15 These convoy's peaked my interest, and since the π·πΊ logistics machine heavily relies on railway, the most obvious place to start is at the railway hubs it still can use in Luhansk. There are only a handfull which suits the need of the π·πΊ forces & are outside of HIMARS reach
3/15 in S Luhansk the railway route between the towns of Dovzhansk(Sverdlovsk) and Rovenky, has 4 stops that would be out of HIMARS reach, but only two of those are connected with the highways into Luhansk city and onto the frontlines.These are Dovzhansk (Sverdlovsk) and Rovenky
