➡️Wagner managed to retake ground in Opytne (3). After my initial thoughts of claims being debatable, Russia did manage to push AFU back. Opytne is 50/50 again, very fluid
➡️Fighting continues NE of Soledar (1) and in Bakhmuts'ke (2), Situation is hard...
The 17th separate tank brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Bakhmut. They have been re-equipped with T-72M1 tanks.
➡️Russia shelled Novomykhailivka, Avdiivka (2), Mar'inka, Vuhledar (3) and some other towns. In general its calm. Only in Mar'inka the fighting is heavy on a daily basis
➡️In Mar'inka (1), the map changes daily, both parties control half some or less
➡️Commander Cherevaty confirmed Russia moved it's command center away from Kreminna. He also said: "Kreminna is not de-occupied yet"
➡️Russia shelled Chervonopopivka again.
➡️AFU (81st brig.) stormed the area east of Bilohorivka near the water facility (1) with success
I have modified the area controlled by the AFU south of Kreminna. The AFU is close by, but in hindsight my map was to positive, so I adjusted that. My estimate now is that the AFU is positioned about 1.5-2 km from the southern suburbs. AFU Recon units are confirmed working.
➡️ISW claims Kolomyichykha (2) is under AFU control. GSUA confirmed the town was shelled by Russia. More confirmation needed, but we also lean towards control.
➡️Pershotravneve (1) and Vil'shana were both shelled today.
➡️I put Vil'shana back to contested.
