Situation on the frontlines as of April 16, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian and Siverskyi direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — local battles continue along the contact line and artillery shelling from both sides. The enemy doesn't stop trying to improve its tactical position in Serebryansky Forestry.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — urban battles continue in Bakhmut. The hottest spots are near the elevator, west of the train station, and in the area of Kosmonavtiv Street. Periodic attempts to strike our flanks end in failure for the enemy. Cockroaches keep crawling...

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — battles continue west of Novobakhmutivka. On other areas, artillery from both sides is actively working.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. The f**kers show themselves to be very devout, but today they received ammunition supplies and intensified Bakhmut shelling on Easter. In addition, one of the areas was shelled by nine 2S5 "Giatsint-S" at once. The situation in the city remains stably difficult.

🇸🇰Slovakia has delivered all promised MiG-29 fighter jets to Ukraine — a total of 13 aircraft

⚠️The country's Ministry of Defense announced that in addition to the 4 fighter jets delivered in March, they have successfully transferred another 9 aircraft.

📹 Fighter "Spy" shared a video of two strikes on enemy positions near Kuzemivka

⚔🏹 Work of the 92nd Mechanized Brigade, adjustment by the 233rd battalion of the 128th Territorial Defense Brigade. The last video shows a destroyed MT-LB with a towed Vasylok mortar.

🇵🇱"Anyone who today calls for an end to aid to Ukraine is actually acting in the interests of Moscow," - Andrzej Duda during a meeting with Italian President Sergio Mattarella.

🗣"We support them and will continue to support them, and we call on the whole world to also provide this support to Ukraine continuously, until this war really ends without russia's victory. Russia cannot win this war. If russia wins this war, it will attack another country," - added the President of Poland.

👷 According to Duda, the total amount of Poland's military aid to Ukraine is estimated at approximately 3 billion euros - and this support will continue until our victory.

💭"We are providing Ukraine with various types of weapons, starting from the Krab self-propelled howitzer and Piorun MANPADS, in order to enable Ukraine's defenders to effectively resist russian aggression," - emphasized the Polish leader.

Situation on the frontlines as of April 17, 2023

In Bakhmut, the situation is extremely difficult, especially near the "Alley of Roses." We would like to note the actions of the 77th Airmobile Brigade and subordinate units, which have withstood the great pressure of the enemy. The enemy's unsuccessful attempts to encircle Avdiivka continue.

🇵🇱Poland starts construction of an electronic firewall on the Polish-Muscovy border

👮‍♀️The Minister of Interior and Administration announced the start of construction at a press conference at the ministry.

💭"Today, very specific earthworks have begun on the construction of an electronic dam on the Polish-Russian border, that is, on the border with the Königsberg district," the minister said.

🚧The electronic firewall is equipped with a system of cameras and motion sensors and will protect 199 kilometers of the border. Its radius of operation will cover the entire land border with Muscovy, except for the Vistula Spit, where the border has been guarded by electronic means for several years.

💭"We will have full monitoring of what is happening on the border with Russia." <...> "I am convinced that our eastern border will be well prepared for all kinds of illegal actions related to crisis situations with our eastern neighbors. I am convinced that it will be the best protected border of the European Union," the minister added.

🫡And in the photo you can see a wall with Belarus, who, together with the russians, think and declare Poland's intention to attack them. That's how they "prepare for an attack", yeah.👀

🗡 A katsap tank moves from the red zone to the gray zone outside the central avenue, where it is firing from

Judging by the video, no one has control over the central part of Marinka. The same tank was hit by an fpv drone, but it did not affect its operation capacity.
