The officer of the 604th Special Purpose Center "Vityaz," Senior Lieutenant Alexander Potapov, was posthumously awarded the title Hero of 🇷🇺 #Russia.
Today in #Moscow, General Viktor Strigunov presented the star to the widow and mother of the fallen special forces officer. 1/5
2/5 Alexander died at the end of August 2022 in Izyum Kharkov region.
Armed formations of Ukraine opened fire on a residential area of Izyum using barrel artillery as well as American HIMARS MLRS. More than 20 shells fell on residential houses and streets of Ukrainian citizens.
3/5 At that time, not far from the place of shelling, a convoy of Russian soldiers was moving, returning after conducting special events.
Another attempted offensive by armed formations of the Kiev regime in the Kherson region.
They act in small groups. T-72M1 tanks are in the lead, followed by light armored vehicles: infantry fighting vehicles and U.S.-Dutch YPR-765 armored personnel carriers. 1/4
Ramzan #Kadyrov,
Head of the Chechen Republic.
October 1, 2022.
"I have always said: there is nothing better than the truth, however bitter or hurtful, but the truth. It is the only way to move forward.
1/17
2/17
That is why I cannot keep silent about what happened in Krasnyy Liman.
Colonel General Alexander Lapin, commander of the Central Military District, led the defense of this area.
3/17
This is the same Lapin who received the star of Hero of Russia for the capture of Lisichansk, although de facto he was nowhere near there. Lapin was also subordinated to the troops of the Western Military District.
"The intensity of shelling of Energodar by militants of the Ukrainian Armed Forces has sharply increased.
1/4
2/4 At the moment, there have already been more than 20 artillery attacks on the coastline and territory around the city, where the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant is located.
3/4 The area of the thermal power plant is also shelled.
Ukraine is taking revenge on Russia's new citizens for their choice.
The terrorist entity "Ukraine" must be destroyed!"
Situation in the Liman direction
as of 3 p.m. on October 1, 2022
By mid-afternoon it had become clear: the decision was made to withdraw troops and abandon Liman. 1/6
2/ After the video appeared from the eastern outskirts of Zarechnoye with the blown up bridge (49.021573, 37.952583), which was occupied by the AFU, it became clear that the entire "road of life" was already under AFU control.
3/ Russian artillery continues to work on suitable AFU units, but whereas previously the focus was on Liman, now the goal of Ukrainian formations is to blockade Kremenna and take control of the reservoirs on the Zherebets River.
🇷🇺🇺🇦🎞Siege of Lyman
