Situation on the frontlines as of the end of the day on August 23, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian, Siverskyi and Bilhorod directions — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — katsaps are failing in their campaign in Synkivka, despite trying to create media success stories.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — updates around Berkhivka; judging from the footage from recent weeks, our defenders haven't managed to hold positions close to the village. Extremely heavy fighting continues in Klishchiivka and around Andriivka.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Berdiansk direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — Robotyne has been liberated by the Defense Forces. Efforts to push enemy forces toward Verbove and Novoprokopivka are ongoing.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. Finally, Robotyne is liberated. The battles for the village and its surroundings lasted for 2.5 months. They cost us significant human resources and equipment. We continue to lose our best men, so the cost of advancing towards Melitopol, Berdiansk, and near Bakhmut is substantial. To move forward, we need to quickly learn from our mistakes.

✈️ The June 24, 2023, report read: "Preliminary data indicates that the wagner private military company militants have seized headquarters and the airport in Rostov-on-Don. During the clashes between the russian Ministry of Defense and prigozhin's mercenaries, the former lost at least two aircraft. The situation with the militant leader can be briefly described as follows. There are two seats: General Pavlov and General Vlasov - one you sit on and one you put your friend on. Those who don't understand can google these historical figures."
🇷🇺So, the General Pavlov's scenario was realized. He died, and that's fine. No ruzzians - no problem. This is what we are moving towards!

🫡 Finally, our flag flies over Robotyne. We want to acknowledge the units that gave much sweat and blood for that area: 🐴47th Mechanized Brigade, ✊65th Mechanized Brigade, ⚔️116th Mechanized Brigade, 🗡117th Mechanized Brigade, 🐾118th Mechanized Brigade, 👁Skala, 🦟78th "Hertz" regiment, 🐬73rd Naval Special Operations Center, 🦅46th Airmobile Brigade, 🦅82th Guards Air Assault Brigade, 🦁71st Jaeger Brigade, 🔱3rd Operational Brigade of the National Guard "Spartan", 14th Operational Brigade of the National Guard "Chervona Kalyna". The list will be updated if we missed anyone.

🇺🇦 MDI publishes footage of successful landing in Crimea near Mayak village

✍️«On the night of August 24, the MDI of Ukraine conducted an operation with the support of the Navy in the temporarily occupied Crimea. Special forces on boats landed on the shore near the settlements of Olenivka and Mayak,» the Main Directorate of Intelligence said in a statement.

🫡 The operation was successful - as a result of the firefight, the occupiers suffered losses in equipment and personnel. The soldiers raised the Ukrainian flag on the building and left the scene.

🇯🇵Japan starts discharging water into the sea from the Fukushima Daiichi NPP due to filling of the reservoirs

👥 On August 22, 2023, the Japanese government held the sixth meeting of the Inter-Ministerial Council for the Continuous Implementation of the Basic Policy for the Management of Treated Water, at which it was decided to start discharging ALPS water into the sea through an underwater tunnel 1 kilometer from the shore and the nuclear power plant.

🏢In a press release, the Japanese company TEPCO, which is responsible for the maintenance of the nuclear power plant, apologized for the situation:

💭«TEPCO deeply apologizes for the great burden and inconvenience caused to the people of Fukushima and the entire society as a result of the accident at the TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.»

📊The treated water was diluted with seawater, and water samples were taken to measure tritium levels - the concentration analysis showed 43 to 63 becquerels per liter, which is within the normal range. If this level is exceeded, the water discharge will be stopped immediately.

🤷‍♂️Despite the IAEA's assurances of the safety of the operation, the South Korean government does not support the decision to discharge the water. China, for its part, has banned the import of products from 10 prefectures in Japan and tightened their radiation controls.

🇧🇾The potato führer stated that closing borders with Latvia and Lithuania "only harms themselves"

🗣"I don't quite understand Lithuania and Latvia. They are probably rushing ahead...want to show off. But this will turn against them. If they want to close off, let them close off. We don't go to Lithuania and Latvia anyway, we don't do business through them. Who will be worse off from this? They will only make it worse for themselves and their people," said the self-proclaimed president of belarus.

🤡However, lukashenko forgot that in 2020, Lithuania ranked 6th in terms of trade volume and 4th in terms of exports among countries with which belarus conducts foreign trade operations. Latvia ranked 14th and 10th respectively. In 2021, the president's office named Lithuania as the main trading partner.

🤦‍♂️The "politician" claimed that belarus is a peaceful country and has no territorial claims to its neighbors.

💭"We want to live on our own land. We don't need Polish, Lithuanian, or Latvian land. But they have a political psychosis today, especially in Poland, because of the upcoming elections, that's why they will escalate this situation. If they want to close off, let them close off, they will only make it worse for themselves. People are already impoverished: they were taking firewood from us in winter because they had nothing to burn. And for God's sake. We will help them, if needed, we will help them for free, so that people can endure this... They are not foolish, they are strong, tough people. Just like us. They will soon get rid of these leaders," said the potato führer.

🇳🇱The Netherlands will transfer all its F-16s to Ukraine, except for a few that will remain for the training of Ukrainian pilots

🗣This was announced by the Dutch Minister of Defense, Kajsa Ollongren, in an interview with European Pravda.

💬"It's simple. We no longer need the F-16s as we are transitioning to the newer F-35s. However, due to the war in Ukraine, we decided at one point not to sell these F-16 fighters, but to keep them available. Now, we are transferring almost all of them to Ukraine, except for a few aircraft that will be used for the training of Ukrainian pilots. In total, we have 42 aircraft. A small portion of them will be used for training, and the rest will go to the Armed Forces of Ukraine," explained the head of the department."

Situation on the frontlines as of the end of the day on August 25, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian, Siverskyi and Bilhorod directions — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — clashes occurred near Synkivka, Novoyehorivka, Bilohorivka(L), and in the Serebryansk forestry. Near Pershotravneve, about two weeks ago, the enemy managed to level the combat contact line.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — heavy battles continue for Klіshchііvka and near Andriivka.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — skirmishes resumed near Nevelske; the outcome is unknown.

▶️ On the Berdiansk direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — battles continue outside Robotyne and near Verbove and Novoprokopіvka.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. The enemy is trying to regroup in order to optimize forces for further defense (south and Bakhmut) or attack (Svatove direction). In the near future, the situation will continue to change at the tactical level, as the resilience reserves of both sides are still substantial, and neither the enemy nor we have a significant advantage in strength.

📹 In recent days, the enemy has published numerous strikes on our positions in the area of Verbove and Novoprokopivka

📍 Among the locations, we note the advance to height 140.4, which is above Verbove. Also, the katsaps struck in the area of height 121.4 and Kryva ravine. These shots and geolocations indicate an expansion of the left flank of the Robotyne balcony. The soldiers themselves write that to continue advancing, it is necessary to secure the flanks, otherwise, there is a risk of forming a "fire pocket".
