🇺🇦 Separate Presidential Brigade strike at katsaps in a windbreak west of Krasnohorivka

📍 deepstatemap.live/en#16/48.2036/37.7069

Situation on the frontlines as of April 7, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian and Siverskyi direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — localized fighting along the contact line and artillery shelling on both sides continue. The enemy continues to put pressure on the Defense Forces in the forests of Kreminna, especially south of Dibrova.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — the enemy's advance in the center of Bakhmut has been clarified. Katsaps continue to put pressure to push the Defense Forces behind the railroad. Fighting is going on for the pre-trial detention center, the railway station,n, and the Avangard stadium. There are no enemy advances in the area of the airplane.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — the enemy was spotted in one of the windbreaks west of Krasnohorivka. Indeed, as reported on social media, today the enemy launched a rather massive attack, significantly increasing the presence of artillery. The attack is almost completely stalled.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. In Bakhmut, the katsaps are pushing from the city center, the main enemy forces are now there. Based on the situation, the alignment of the combat contact line by rail is not far off. Last week, Penis Dushilin met with the putin in moscow, asking him to secure Donetsk, because he can't even go to the toilet, because the Armed Forces drones are watching him. He asked putin for support. The other day, artillery was brought to the Donetsk area. Today, they conducted artillery training along the Vodiane-Opytne line and launched an attack. The fighting continues, but according to preliminary data, this attempted offensive did not bring any success.

✈️ NATO to conduct largest air exercise in its history

⚡️ The U.S. National Guard website has announced the largest air exercise in its history, Air Defender 2023, which will take place from June 12 to 23.

📡 The exercises will be held, in particular, in the countries bordering russia. Air Defender 2023 aims to test the ability to rapidly deploy and utilize NATO aircraft. It is planned to involve about 220 aircraft of 23 types. This scale makes Air Defender 2023 the largest air force deployment exercise since NATO was founded in 1949.

⚔️ The multinational exercise will take place in Germany with forward operating sites in the Czech Republic, Estonia, and Latvia. In addition to Germany and the United States, 22 allied countries will participate in the exercise.

🇺🇦🇵🇱The Polish armored plant Bumar-Labędy has begun work on the overhaul of T-64 tanks as part of an agreement between the arms concern Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa (PGZ) and Ukroboronprom, PGZ said

🔝The choice of this company was a priority, as Bumar-Labędy has extensive experience in the maintenance and modernization of T-family tanks, including the T-72 and PT-91.

💭 "Gliwickie Zakłady Mechaniczne is ready to create a hub for the repair of armored vehicles in service of the Ukrainian army. Over 70 years of experience of the Department in the field of both production and inspection, repair, re-equipment, and modernization of armored vehicles will be a key help in maintaining the defense capability of the Ukrainian army. Thanks to regular repair and maintenance activities, the used vehicles will fully restore the required combat readiness," said Edyta Szymanska, President of the Board of Directors of BUMAR-ŁABĘDY SA

🗡 In the future, it is also planned to take on the maintenance of T-72 and PT-91 tanks, as well as Leopard 2 tanks, as part of the cooperation. Thanks to the program of modernization of Leopard 2A4 tanks to the 2PL standard for the needs of the Polish Army, the company has gained the knowledge, technical base and experience necessary in this area. This will greatly simplify and resolve the logistics and repair issues in case of needs for this line of tanks, because along with the transfer of tanks to Ukraine, there were a number of issues related to their repair and maintenance, which turned out to be a very complicated picture.

💭"We are grateful to our Polish partners for their assistance in increasing the number of armored vehicles for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Each such international agreement integrates us into the production chains of NATO member states," said UOP Director General Yuriy Husyev.

🇹🇼🇨🇳The number of Chinese aircraft over Taiwan has increased to 71

⚠️45 of them crossed the northern, central, and southern median lines of the Taiwan Strait and entered Taiwan's air defense zone. In addition, more than 9 warships are located directly near the island in Taiwan's exclusive (maritime) economic zone.

👤 As a reminder, China has launched a large-scale military exercise around Taiwan called "One Sharp Sword" involving more than 40 aircraft and a dozen warships. These are the largest exercises since August 2022, when Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan. Now, these exercises are a response to the Taiwanese president's trip to the United States.

🔥 Joint work of the SIGNUM unit and the 93rd Separate Mechanized Brigade on Blagoveshchenska Street in Bakhmut

📍 deepstatemap.live/en#16/48.5837/37.9950

Situation on the frontlines as of April 8, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian and Siverskyi direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — localized fighting along the contact line and shelling from both sides continue.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — the situation in the center of Bakhmut has been clarified. The fighting continues, and the situation is dynamic. Some houses are changing hands. Katsaps are traditionally pushing towards the railway station.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — fighting continues north of Vodiane. Hostilities also continue in the forests between Novobakhmutivka and Novoselivka Druha.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. The situation has not changed globally over the last day. The enemy is still pressing from the center of Bakhmut, still looking for weaknesses in the forests of Kreminna. The enemy is pulling up resources to surround Avdiivka, but on the southern front, things are very sad for the katsaps. Soldiers from the occupied part of the Donetsk region continue to die in the name of the political achievements of the supreme f***er of the russian federation.

🌍💸 "The world economy will grow by only 3 percent a year for the next five years" - IMF Head Kristalina Georgieva

😐According to the IMF director, this is "the lowest medium-term growth forecast since 1990." Georgieva noted that global growth in 2022 was almost halved compared to the initial rise after the Covid-19 pandemic in 2021.

📊The IMF chief warned that a "more fragile" global economy would lead to slower growth and greater financial instability:

💭 "Poverty and hunger in the world could continue to worsen, a dangerous trend set in motion by the coronavirus crisis," Kristalina said in an interview with Politico.

🤷‍♂️At the same time, the IMF director notes that despite the problems in the banking sector that have arisen in the United States and Switzerland, the global economy is not threatened with a repeat of the 2008 financial crisis scenario.

🇹🇼🇨🇳The Chinese newspaper Global Times published a video showing simulated Chinese army strikes on Taiwan

👷The People's Liberation Army Command in the Eastern Theater has created a computer animation depicting its simulated combined precision strikes on the island of Taiwan. The animation shows that conventional and long-range missiles on land, military aircraft in the air, and warships at sea simultaneously attacked from several directions on the island.

🗣Zhao Xiaozhuo, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Military Sciences, noted that the key targets relate to military facilities and specific buildings on the island of Taiwan. These are airfields, important nodes in the Taiwanese military system, and important mobile targets.

👀As a reminder, the Chinese and russians call Taiwan provocateurs, in particular, the Taiwanese president's trip to the United States. We clearly see methods in world politics that are inherent in similar countries🫠

🐉 36th Marine Brigade strikes at katsaps in Krasnohorivka

⚔ Tank of the 92nd Mechanized Brigade hits katsaps north of Khromove

📍 deepstatemap.live/en#16/48.6161/37.9373

Situation on the frontlines as of April 9, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian and Siverskyi direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — localized fighting along the contact line and shelling from both sides continue. In the area of the mass grave (north of height 79.8), the enemy managed to push our forces out of the positions they held. We are learning the details and will publish a post about it tomorrow.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — the enemy seized School #24 in Bakhmut. Fighting continues near the railway station: the outcome is unknown. The exact situation near the Avangard stadium is also unknown, holding positions there is becoming extremely difficult due to the situation to the north. Fighting continues near Bakhmut School #2. According to preliminary data, all the enemy's attempts to improve the tactical situation near Ivanivske, Khromove, and Bohdanivka have failed.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — the stalemate near Vodyane, despite the enemy managing to take over the positions, our artillery turned both the enemy and the positions into a vinaigrette. Katsaps captured the Hrachovyi forest and are moving from Krasnohorivka to the railroad near Novokalynove. In Maryinka, the enemy positions in the gray zone in the south of the city were hit, unfortunately, the f***ers are advancing.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. Recently, there has been a negative trend. The katsaps continue to exert pressure from the north of Avdiivka, bringing in additional reserves. The situation in that area is extremely difficult now, the assaults are very frequent, and the enemy does not pay attention to the losses - all for the sake of fulfilling the whim of the supreme dick. The situation in Bakhmut is traditionally extremely difficult. Many friends are holding the fort now, so it's getting harder and harder to describe the situation in the city every day.

🇩🇪German Interior Minister threatens to ban athletes from russia and belarus from entering the country

💭"Countries that host major sporting events are not powerless. They can control whether russians can participate in them by issuing visas. <...> If we organize international competitions in Germany, we can act accordingly. Here, we will always act with a clear position," Nancy Feather said in an interview with Funke.

🗣In addition, the Interior Minister noted that allowing athletes from aggressor countries to participate in international competitions would be a "slap in the face to Ukrainian athletes."

🇷🇺 The f***ers on the trophy M113 in Soledar

📍 deepstatemap.live/en#16/48.7023/38.0687

📹 Again unpleasant footage, again from the area of Kreminna

🏎 On Saturday, the f***ers successfully stormed our positions at the crossroads north of height 79.8 with two behemoths, a tank, and some other military equipment in the support group.

❌ The positions on the video are lost. They piled on so hard that there was almost no chance of repelling the attack. Most likely, there was at least 1 Terminator in support. The tank was the first to enter to pin the defenders to the ground, and the troops entered under its cover.

💩 Interestingly, the attacking forces from the enemy side were flying Soviet flags, which many Ukrainians still hold dear in their hearts, remembering their youth with 40 kopeck sausages.

👀 As attention is currently focused on Bakhmut, information about the battles in the Kreminna forests is rarely covered in the media. However, we maintain communication in that direction and monitor all changes. In recent days, the enemy has intensified their assaults, attacking our positions several times a day.

🔥 The Battle of Hürtgenwald: historical analogies of the battle for Kreminna

⚔️The battle in the German forests between Americans and Germans became one of the longest-lasting in World War II and the longest of any battle the US Army has ever participated in. It was characterized by high intensity, the involvement of a large number of personnel, and primarily took place in a forested area.

💬 We once spoke to soldiers who were transferred from Kreminna to Bakhmut during the winter, and it was from them that we first heard of this comparison. Among the military in that direction, it turned out to be popular, as it has some similarities.

👤 On the American side, there were well-trained infantry forces with no combat experience. On the German side, there were riflemen and Volksgrenadiers who were poorly trained but had officers with experience on the Eastern Front under the leadership of the famous "fireman of the front," Walter Model. You can read the details of the battle itself in open sources, where a lot of information is described, we recommend looking for information in English.

▶️ Losses on both sides were significant. However, it is worth noting that the American side suffered heavy losses due to a lack of combat experience, and the soldiers died under machine-gun fire so quickly that, according to their accounts, they didn't even have time to get to know each other properly. The German army, relying on the experience of its commanders and the network of fortifications known as the Siegfried Line, held the defense for a long time and initially quite effectively. As predicted, the US Army eventually won after almost five months of heavy fighting, but due to the large number of losses, the Allies unofficially considered this battle a defeat.

🤔It's not worth guessing now who corresponds to which side. It is important to understand that the Battle for Kreminna, in terms of scale and difficulty of conducting combat operations, is quite close to this very battle. People change, but wars don't change much. We need to believe in the Defense Forces and support them with all our efforts.

🧐It's interesting to observe the historical repetitions of combat actions because, besides historical value, they carry time-tested experience.
