❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Soledar direction
situation by the end of February 27, 2023

🔻In the north-west of Bakhmut, the assault detachments of the Wagner PMC secured control at the Berkhovsky reservoir.

To the west of Dubovo-Vasilevka, the remnants of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to counterattack, but without success. In the village itself, over the past two days, active battles have not been observed after the

withdrawal of the forces of the 46th detachment from Dubovo-Vasilevka.

▪️Now the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to expand the bridgehead around the Grigorovka-Bogdanovka line, where cannon and rocket artillery crews are located.

With fire support, Ukrainian formations repeatedly tried to attack, but all attacks were repulsed.

🔻In the north of Bakhmut, the "Wagnerites" completely cleared the Stupki and entered the Ilyinovka area. As expected, the blowing of the dam had no effect on the containment of Russian units, to some extent, even helping to advance in Bakhmut.

▪️In the south, there is a slight advance of the "Wagnerites" near the Mariupol cemetery in the Budenovka area. Also, the assault on residential areas of the Armed Forces of Ukraine continues in Sobachevka.

🔻In the south-west, there are fierce battles on the outskirts of Krasnoe and along the road to Konstantinovka. During the offensive of the Wagner PMC,

the 93rd brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered huge losses. Its understaffing is carried out at the expense of reservists.

The evacuation of the wounded is hampered by the lack of supply routes and lack of vehicles. In addition, a significant part of the equipment of the 93rd ombr is simply impossible to take out of the Krasnoy region, since almost all ARVs were destroyed or damaged.

▪️As a matter of urgency, the transfer of a battalion formed from the mobilized begins from Ivano-Frankivsk. Initially, the unit was supposed to be part of the new 42 mechanized brigade.

🔻In the north of Bakhmut, reinforcements were transferred to Minkovka in case of intensification of the offensive of Russian units at the Zaliznyanskoye-Vasyukovka line. In Fedorovka, on the road to Seversk, fortifications are being built.

▪️Due to the lack of interaction and coordination, one of the artillery crews of the Armed Forces of Ukraine hit their own formations, which were withdrawn from the front line for resupply. Now this unit is planned to be disbanded due to losses.

▪️There is a shortage of more than 700 people in the 1st brigade of the Bars special forces of the National Guard of Ukraine. A reserve battalion in the amount of 760 people was transferred to the temporary subordination of the NSU formation.

This unit is armed with NLAW anti-tank systems, machine guns and hand grenade launchers, but there are no artillery pieces.

▪️Ukrainian formations are trying to hold back the offensive using artillery and mortars. Target designation is provided by calculations of UAVs and copters. Over the past day, the use of Mavic-3, Matrice-300, Matrice-30T, Autel Evo and Pchela drones has been noted.
