Allied forces are fighting on the eastern outskirts of Soledar and Bakhmut (Artemovsk).

▪️Clashes continue on the southeastern outskirts of Soledar in the area of   the KNAUF-Gypsum plant. The sixth Cossack regiment of the NM of the LPR has occupied and is holding part of the territory of the enterprise, repelling the counterattacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Tensions between Russia and the Biden admin continue to rise. Talks appear to be going nowhere, and now Russia have been expressing doubt of the US compliance with not only the Biological Weapons Treaty, but now the US/Russian nuclear treaty, New START.

Nuclear treaties failing and proxy war with Russia. China threatening military intervention in Deep State proxy Taiwan. All of this is culminating to Trump’s statement the other night.

“America is on the edge of an abyss.”

Both CBS  and CNN have been showing some uncomfortable truths to the mainstream the last couple days, because at some point you can’t lie about it.

CBS confirmed that only 30% of western military hardware/equipment is actually ending up on the frontlines, where is the other 70%? Nobody knows…
CNN confirmed that Ukrainians are actually fleeing towards Russia with all their belongings, why? Because Russia is wining and its safer to live under it + a lot of Ukrainians are fleeing from conscription.  

In the Zaporozhye region, they say that the referendum on joining Russia can be held online so as not to endanger people’s lives in the context of terrorist attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

 In my opinion, it is necessary to boldly and openly state here that the Zaporozhye region decided to adopt the best practices of the United States and conduct voting according to advanced American standards and emphasize mail-in voting, as it was in the Biden elections in 2020.  Let’s see how the Democrats will criticize mail-in voting in Zaporozhye.

The Russian army is concentrating its main efforts in the east of Ukraine to establish full control over the DPR and LPR – the main thing from the summary of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

 ▪️In the Donetsk direction, Russian and allied troops, using the available means of fire destruction, are forcing the Armed Forces of Ukraine to suffer heavy losses and do not allow Ukrainian militants to effectively transfer reinforcements to other directions;
 ▪️In the Bakhmut direction, the Russian army carries out assault operations in the areas of the settlement.  Artyomovsk, Zaitsevo, Vershina and Kodema;
 ▪️Russian and allied troops are carrying out an offensive in the directions of Avdiivka and Peski;
 ▪️In the Zaporozhye direction, the Russian army inflicts fire damage on the enemy in the area of   the settlement.  Maryinka and Shevchenko.

The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, commented on the ongoing shelling of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant by Ukraine:
 
• The situation around the Zaporozhye NPP is becoming more dangerous every day due to the actions of the Ukrainian armed forces;
 
• Kyiv “actually takes the whole of Europe hostage” by shelling nuclear power plants;
 
• The Russian Federation records the intention of the IAEA Director General to carry out the previously planned visit to the Zaporozhye NPP;
 
• Russia expects that the UN will no longer impede the IAEA’s access to ZNPP.

Ukrainian Internet users are celebrating the great victory over the capture of the village of Mazanovka (south of Izyum, we really left it). The village is quite small, just a few houses, but unfortunately they do not tell the whole story, and without the final, it turns out not so interesting.

A few days ago, we left the village, retreating into the forest, after which, inspired by the successful offensive, the Ukrainian military began to put pressure on us, hoping to knock us out and go to Dolgenkiy. At first, the offensive of the Ukrainian army was successful, they occupied the forest area, pulled up reserves. Having waited for the moment when a sufficient amount of manpower had accumulated in the forest, the artillery of the RF Armed Forces hit them.

After a powerful fire raid, our infantry returned to the forest and calmly counted the enemy’s corpses.

We said many times that offensive and defense are different types of operational art, but the forest, once again became the grave of several dozen soldiers of the armed forces.

“Kraken Battalion” nazis have lost their combat capability.

In the Kharkov direction, as a result of the destruction of points of temporary deployment of Ukrainian nationalists by precision strikes of the Russian Aerospace Forces and missile troops, massive losses and desertion of mercenaries have occurred. Kraken national formation lost its combat capability.

To urgently replenish the losses, the commanders of the Nazi formation unsuccessfully try to force the inhabitants of the city of Kharkov to join it.

Battle near Donetsk: Enemy positions are very close

From the advanced positions of the defenders of the republic near Spartak, the Ukrainian fighters are less than half a kilometer away. As the fighters say, earlier the enemy tried to advance here, but without success. And now the only way for the enemy to save their lives is to surrender or retreat.

HIMARS: Ukrainian militants shelled the Antonovsky bridge again tonight.  According to the results of the shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, 1 hit on the roadway was recorded.  The same hit destroyed the construction trailer, in which the construction team that was engaged in the restoration of the bridge kept their tools and other equipment – the Regional State Administration https://t.me/HersonVestnik/6766
