๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ#KennethGregg here again (1/9) "The new Russian reinforcements and the activation of the reserves have given the Russians new offensive momentum in Bakhmut. We abandoned the railway station and retreated a few blocks to the west. They also advanced towards the key road +
2:"...that connects Chasiv Yar and Bakhmut through Khromove but heavy fighting is currently going on there.
Russian forces also advanced westwards from the direction of Dubovo-Vasylivka and took the ridges north-east of Hryhorivka. At the time of writing, information was +
3:"...received that we had counterattacked at the railway station with a larger force, but I have no confirmation of this information.
At Avdiivka small but good things are happening: the Russians tried to rotate their troops on the southeastern edge of Pervomaiske, +
4:"...but were caught by our soldiers from the 59th motorised brigade. In the last 2 weeks we have taken several hundred prisoners of war.
Preparations for the offensive continue, it is, as they say in poker, all in. It has also become official that we actually have a lot more +
5:"...weapons than you are led to believe. Not only Western weapons but also our own production. In particular, we have more air defence and air attack weapons. Since we do not have aircraft, that means that we have 'special robots'. +
6:"The SBU is also working at full speed. They have arrested a number of spies within our legal system. I don't understand how these people think, the Russians are taking a beating but they continue to believe in a Russian victory. +
7:"Regarding corruption, I have interviewed two politicians in the city of Brovary who have full insight into how the mayor and his assistants work. The interview is being edited and should come out next week through Nongrata media. +
8:"The procedures are the same in other cities, so the picture is not just about Brovary. Here I want to warn the taxpayers of Borgholm. You are sister city to one of the most corrupt city administrations in Ukraine so your tax donations have not ended up where they should, +
9:"...but in the pockets of a group of corrupt city politicians through various transactions. More on this in the interview. "๐Ÿ›‘

2:"massive casualties. It is their reserves that are now in the meat grinders. In the city centre they advance westwards and at the railway station they levelled the high-rise buildings to the ground. Unfortunately, they now have enough artillery to give us a Dante's inferno. +
3:"We continue to delay their advance as much as we can but now we are at the limit of what we can do. If we can still stop them in the city and thus gain more time for our offensive, we will have done a day's work rarely seen in the history of warfare. +

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ#KennethGregg here again: (1/9) "Bakhmut is as before, no significant advances. This is what you should know about Bakhmut:
1. We now have plenty of artillery in place
2. The Russians have levelled all houses west of the railway line in a 300m zone with their artillery.+
2:"3. The Russians have taken control of the railway line which was a so-called natural barrier.
Since all the houses have been levelled, the Russians have created an open zone that now prevents them from advancing because we, with our artillery, erase their attempts to attack.+
3:"The situation is the same for us; the Russians' artillery mows us down if we attempt a counterattack. The railway line is also the dividing line between the centre and the western part of the city in the south. The Russians have also tried to storm the park to the north, +

2:"There are also pictures of our soldiers on Bradleys, supported by old modernised T55 tanks (yes, we have these too). Their task will probably be to enter during the so-called second wave and secure retaken ground. +
3:"Artillery and grenades are also pouring in and we have filled our fuel depots all along the front line. This detail is interesting by the way: during the Kharkiv offensive the depots were filled while the other fronts were at a standstill. +

2:"...his entire prestige on conquering the city. He has also realized that this is the last conquest the Russians can make and now advocates a purely defensive role for the entire army. With the help of these new reinforcements, they have managed to cross the railroad line and +
3:"...retake the positions from which our special forces drove them away. At the same time our drone operators have spotted a large infantry force entering the city. Already on April 4th, our forces in Bakhmut were ordered to prepare a withdrawal from the city to Chasiv Yar.+

On the Bakhmut front, the Russians have recently carried out intense attacks near Bilogorivka and in +
2:"...the town itself they are attacking around the railroad in order to retake the positions we drove them from two days ago.

At Avdiivka, the Russians are shifting in their reserves and trying to consolidate on the highway west of Novobakhmutivka. +
3:"Fighting also continues in Pervomaysk and Marinka.
Notably, the Russians have now mobilized the entire reserve to these combat areas. If no results are achieved during the weekend, the reserve has been sacrificed to no avail. We, on the other hand, have stocked up heavily on +

2:"The combat zone (the so-called gray zone) has expanded while the established Russian-controlled area is more or less unchanged. They have also concentrated on knocking out our maintenance convoys with partial success, so you can guess that we are also suffering heavy losses. +
3:"North of Avdiivka, where we counter-attacked, we have retreated to the starting position. Here too, the Russians have brought in VDV troops. South of the town the Russians have good troop concentrations but their attacks have been repulsed. +
