This is a very insightful thread about Russian defensive positions in the Robotyne-Novoprokopivka area, Orikhiv sector, Zaporizhzhia front. I translated it to English 👇

1/
"This, dear friends, is one of the most complex strongholds located in the Robotyne-Novoprokopivka area. A complex system of trenches-tunnels, dugouts, firing positions, to which the Russian invaders cling with all their might."

2/

"What we see first. A system of trenches and firing positions. According to the results of observation and tracking of the movements of equipment and personnel of the occupiers, we confirm the routes of movement and approaches to the positions."

3/
x.com/solonko1648/st…
"In general, these routes should be obvious, but of course all the information must be studied and the information verified. Therefore, such a formalism. Next, we see how these positions are equipped from above. We see that the dugouts are covered."

4/
x.com/solonko1648/st…
"Some trenches are covered from above along a long length. Perhaps these are not tunnels in classical sense, but technically they are. This is actually a trench-tunnel. They were designed to hide the number of personnel and movement in the trenches."

5/

"With the help of aerial reconnaissance, we determine not only which route the occupiers enter/exit. We find the entrances/exists of this strongpoint/trench system."

6/
x.com/solonko1648/st…
"A little more about 'tunnels.' According to the soldiers of the frontline units, there is a classic tunnel here. Under the road that leads from Robotyne to Novoprokopivka. It connects both flanks of this system."

7/
x.com/solonko1648/st…
"Moreover, we also know that dugouts have been dug here, which are actually a second subterranean floor, going deep into the ground. While we were waiting for shells, the occupiers were digging. And they dug long and deep."

8/
 x.com/solonko1648/st…
"After fierce battles and artillery shelling, our artillery 'opened' the dugouts and covered trenches. After that, it became clearer how much more difficult the task is."

9/
x.com/solonko1648/st…
"What's even more, in the area where the main entrance to these positions is located from the west, only after intense artillery fire it will become clear to the untrained eye how well some of the trenches-tunnels on this side were camouflaged."

10/
x.com/solonko1648/st…
"Occupiers successfully used the windbreak to prepare and conceal these positions. It requires us to conduct very thorough and vigilant intelligence. They know what we are interested in and are making efforts so that we cannot conduct it well."

There's an insane footage of Ukrainian soldiers defending their positions in the battle for the last road to Bakhmut.

We follow a 🇺🇦 soldier as he jumps into his dugout. He is made aware that his comrade has been killed. Shortly after, the Russians launch their assault.

The Ukrainians engage the attackers and intense firefight ensues. Russian soldier can be seen throwing a grenade at the defenders.

The Russians attacking from the left side are killed, but another group approach the trenches from the right side.

The Ukrainian soldier with callsign "Tihiy" tells his comrades to come to support him as the Russians advance on the right flank. The firefight continues.
