1.🇷🇺155th Naval Infantry Bde POWs captured in Kursk Oblast
First 2 POWs from the 155th. I'm not sure if this will turn into a thread or not, considering the recent infamy the 155th brought on itself with🇺🇦POW executions.
English subs. They say they were waiting for Akhmat forces.
2.🇷🇺155th Naval Infantry Bde POWs captured in Kursk Oblast.
After a wait and many recent films of KIA from the infamous 155th, this finally turns into a POW thread.
UAF 47th Mech Bde report the capture of an assistant grenade launcher from the 155th, who reportedly witnessed the execution of 2🇺🇦POWs near Glushkovo at the end of September.
Allegedly the order for the execution of the🇺🇦POWs and the subsequent removal of their heads came from commander of the unit. Reportedly this POW has also named the direct perpetrators of this war crime.

3.🇷🇺155th Naval Infantry Bde POWs captured in Kursk Oblast.
Two new 155th POWs films. This POW from its 1st Batt 2nd Company was captured near Novoivanovka.
He says they arrived at a grove of trees and heard intense fighting. They heard that the nearby Akhmat commander 'Kapitan' was surrendering. Feeling scared they decided to run. Akhmat remnants had already fled, with one killed by MG fire on the way back. When they reached their old position UAF captured them.
He also says that their company commander ordered them to cut off the heads of captured Ukrainians and film it, as well as to shoot their own in the back if they started to retreat.

4.🇷🇺155th Naval Infantry Bde POWs captured in Kursk Oblast.
A 2nd new film also mentions executions. He signed up on 13.10.24. They picked up convicts all over Russia, came to Zvezdnyi training ground for 10 days, then 10 days training in Kursk Oblast, then 3 days before being sent into battle.
He told how on 11.11.24 at about 10 am shooting started at the next dugout. RuAF were forcing UAF out. Three UAF soldiers agreed to surrender, but Sergei 'Chikatilo' shot them after they emerged without weapons. He says its up to the Commander to decide whether to keep prisoners alive or to kill them.
Later he herd no radio talk for 2- 3 hours. [The others in his group] had run or been killed. UAF arrived and captured and evacuated him. They told him his whole group had perished.

South Donetsk front
For a few days 'Peaky Blinders' UAV team of🇺🇦NGU 2nd unit, Special Purpose Center OMEGA have reported that the🇷🇺offensive stalled [in parts of Sth Donetsk].
They claim that drones stop 80% of attacks, exampling this with 19 KIA they claim from yesterday alone.
My numbering of the KIA.
For ease of counting the images are combined and recut from originally 7 images found here.
…t.me/gostrikartuzy/…
2. Kurakhovo front.
'Peaky Blinders' UAV team of🇺🇦NGU 2nd unit, Special Purpose Center OMEGA show film of the same path above (see pics 3 +4).
Two soldiers follow the same route. Nice, predictable and easy to track!
The 'Blinders' reported yesterday 55🇷🇺KIA + 45 WIA over 7 days.
1-8. Mykhailivka railway bridge battles.
30.08, a reported tank from🇺🇦15th Brigade of Operational Assignment 'Kara-Dag' destroys a🇷🇺BTR-82AT while🇷🇺infantry are engaged from the SW.
Maybe an AT mine or shell, as the hit is out of the LOS of tank in tweet 4.
2-8. Mykhailivka railway bridge battles, Approx 30.08.
While the🇷🇺BTR-82AT destroyed in tweet 1 still burns 🇺🇦15th Brigade of Operational Assignment 'Kara-Dag' shows 3🇷🇺infantry casualties. One sits, perhaps with stomach wounds, 1 moves his foot, the last seems still. We will see them closer in the next tweet.
Film released 01.09: t.me/kyianyn204/1561
3-8. Mykhailivka railway bridge battles, Approx 30.08.
Some time later the🇷🇺BTR-82AT in tweet 2 no longer burns and the 3 Russian appear to be KIA.
Additionally there are 1 or 2 more KIA on the the railway embankment shown at the end and perhaps another west of the bridge.

SW of Avdiivka, 23.08.23.
Must watch. Intense combat scenes as the recce Company of🇺🇦59th Motorised Brigade (made up of Ukrainians + foreign volunteers) storm RuAF positions on height 105-106.
They succeed, inflicting 22 KIA + 2 POWs on the RuAF, for the loss of 2 WIA + a HMMWV.
A link to full HD version film, with a 2nd part analysing the battle with English subs.
The foreign volunteers are reportedly from America, Canada, Sweden and Japan - from the well-known 'Chosen Company' of the 59th.
I also hear Irish, English and Aussie or Kiwi accents in the film.
Caveat on the location: Yes its SW of Avdivka, but more accurate to say its between Pervomaiske and Nevelske.
1. New Thread/Oleshky
Rybar reports on evening 16 OCT 4 groups from🇺🇦35th + 36th Marine brigades + 140 Recce Batt landed at the small UAF bridgehead south the destroyed railway bridge over the Dnipro; aim to advance on Oleshky, Pishchanivka + Poima.
Further on 17 OCT p.m. the marines broke through and captured Poima. After receiving reinforcements they reached the northern outskirts of Pishchanivka (as reported by Rybar tonight).
Rybar also reports UAF preparations for several more crossings aimed at taking Pidstepne and Kozachi Laheri further to the north east.
2. Poima. Likely 15/10
🇷🇺TG has for weeks picked up that🇺🇦marine units were concentrating so should not be a surprise.
Also 36th Marine Bde's 501 Batt has just conducted a FPV strike in Poima on a UAZ-452.
If Rybar's map is correct this area is now UAF.
3. Released 18/10,🇷🇺8th Arti Regt shell near both sides of small railway bridge over Verknya Konka River (46.663158, 32.804279 geo in link).
This is the only evidence so far that UAF are near Poima + so far no suggestion of larger crossing beyond a raid.
Robotyne.
Last night I was informed by a🇺🇦 source that Robotyne was liberated. Clarification this morning: it occured after 'a small battle at night at the checkpoint at the southern part'. This morning I received confirmation from a seperate source from the area. (Some Ru commentary say similar - see in link). Film illustrative but recent - likely from the east side of Robotyne.
2. As mentioned in the tweet above the film I used illustratively is from the east side of the village. Here is the geolocation. Hopefully some Ukrainian film or pics from the south of the village will come soon.
3. Robotyne.
Recent fighting in the center + south of Robotyne. At least two UAF AFVs, (look like Bradleys to me), 'jockey' as they put down suppressive fire around the shop opposite the house of culture. Later they lay smoke with RuAF arti reported.
1. New Dnipro River thread/Kozachi Laheri landings.
Ru TG channels report today that UAF landed at Kozachi Laheri with ongoing fighting.
Some inform on UAF 'presence' west of the village. gives a specific location at 46.707197, 32.946664.

2. Dnipro River thread/Kozachi Laheri.
🇷🇺blogger Rybar reports today:
At night, 7 UAF boats landed up to 7 groups of 6-7 men after launching a smoke screen west of the village and struck from the flank.
I have seen imagery of the destruction of a Russian AFV vehicle approx 2.7km… https://t.co/nmlmzU0zpytwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
3. Kozachi Laheri.
Dubious Ru film NOT from Kozachi Laheri explained in tweet.
🇷🇺bloggers since report🇷🇺Major Tomov of Batt 1822 + a 16 man recce group are MIA at the location of the red dot in tweet 1. UAF seem to know where he is/was. Expect more later;)
