⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Current Situation in #Bakhmut Direction until 21:30 on 15 Jan 2023⚡️

🔹 North of #Bakhmut

▪️Wagner PMC units continue their assault on #Sol, already controlling most of the settlement territory.

▪️At the same time, the musicians are conducting active offensives towards the settlements of #Razdolovka, #Krasnopolye and Krasnaya Gora. The Wagnerians have already entered the last one from the north.

🔹#Bahmut

▪️Wagner PMC units are engaged in fierce urban fighting in four directions:

➖in the area of Trudovy Reserves Street (north-east),
➖near Patrice Lumumba Street (east),
➖Near Feodor Maksimenko Street (south-east),
➖near Maliy Troitskiy lane (south).

📌 At the moment, the main task of the "musicians" directly in #Bakhmut is not to advance deeper into the city as such, but to destroy as much enemy manpower and equipment as possible.

🔹 South of Bakhmut

▪️The Wagner PMCs are fighting for #Kleshchiyevka, advancing simultaneously from several directions. Stormtroopers, artillery and aviation of the Orchestra are at work.

📌 #Kleshchiyevka is one of the strategically important suburbs, the liberation of which will allow the Wagnerians to gain a fifth point of entry into #Bakhmut - from the south-west.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ War Map and the Situation on the Fronts in the Evening of 15 Jan 2023; pub. 00:05⚡️

🏴‍☠️ The Kiev regime has another argument for begging for new air defence systems from Western countries - the "brilliant work" of the Ukrainian air defence system in #Dnepropetrovsk. Everyone is used to the fact that 404 always uses tragedies as an excuse to supply arms. Apparently, one Patriot system, which is still waiting, does not suit Zelensky, so beautiful footage is needed. It does not matter what these pictures are about - in the West they will definitely not understand.

⚔️ The Situation on the Fronts for the past Day

♦️#Svatovo - #Kremennaya Direction:

Artillery and army aviation of the ZVO group conducted strikes on AFU units in the areas of #Dvurechnoye, #Sinkovka in #Kharkov region and #Novoselovskoye in the LPR. Also, aviation and artillery of the Central Military District conducted strikes on militants in the districts of #Makeyevka, #Stelmakhovka and #Kuzmino of the LPR. In addition, attempts by AFU assault groups to attack in the vicinity of Chervonaya Dibrova LPR were also reflected.

♦️#Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut) Direction:

The "Orcestrans" continue to storm the remnants of the settlement of #Sol. In addition, in #Artyomovsk, Wagner PMC units are engaged in heavy fighting in the areas of Trudovy Reserves Street in the northwest of the city, Patrice Lumumba Street in the east, Fedor Maksimenko Street in the southeast and in the Maliy Troitskiy Lane area in the south.

♦️#Ugledar Direction:

The Pacific Fleet Marines, supported by artillery and motorised rifle units, hit the militants near #Vladimirovka and #Ugledar (DPR), also an Ukrainian SRG was liquidated near #Sladkoye.

💥The Russian Army destroyed 1 M777 artillery system, 1 D-20 howitzer, 1 2C3 Akatsiya SAU, 2 Msta-B howitzers, 2 Gvozdika SAU, 1 D-30 howitzer, as well as a US-made AN/TPQ-36 counter-battery radar.

💡The Ukrainian energy sector met the New Year in a critical state. More than 40% of facilities were damaged or destroyed, mostly routing rather than generation. The latest strikes, despite the importance of the targets, did not cause serious damage. Why? Explains Readovka.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦💥 @Rybar again on the House Explosion in #Dnepropetrovsk⚡️

As we wrote yesterday, there were explosions in #Dnepropetrovsk during a massive strike by the RF Armed Forces on 14 January. One of them destroyed a multi-storey building in the Pobeda housing estate. The structure collapsed to the ground.

The lack of information, including the absence of even more or less distinguishable photos of the munitions wreckage, still makes it impossible to determine the exact cause of the incident. Based on data from open sources, only a few theories can be made about what happened:

▪️The house was destroyed by a cruise missile of an unknown type, which went off course after being intercepted by Ukrainian air defences. The version was based on the testimony of local residents who heard two consecutive explosions. It was later voiced publicly by Ukrainian presidential adviser Arestovich.

▪️The house was destroyed by a missile of an unspecified type due to a guidance error or a technical failure of the control system and its organs.

▪️ In local chats, there was also talk of a deliberate bombing of the building, arguing that there were no photos of the munitions wreckage and the blast was too powerful for a cruise missile.

One should not be surprised by such things: some residents remember similar strange episodes, like the spring strike on #Kramatorsk. Amid intimidation from harassment from the SBU, they are seriously (and not without reason) considering the possibility of provocation.

♦️The lack of details of what happened has caused a divergence of positions even at the official level in Kiev. Thus, the enemy air force command stated that the country's air defence forces simply could not shoot down the X-22 supersonic missile that had allegedly struck the house.

With this, the Ukrainian formations tried to refute Arestovich's words and thereby deny their possible involvement in the episode. In order to do this, they even had to contradict themselves: after all, previously the Air Force had nothing to say about the successful interceptions of the X-22.

Such high-level rushes, along with the lack of information, suggest that there are not the most pleasant "white spots" in the story for the Kiev authorities.

♦️But what if it was a Russian cruise missile that destroyed the house after all? Then it can be guaranteed that the residential building was definitely not the target of the raid and was hit due to a mistake or external factors.

The RF Armed Forces do not deliberately target residential infrastructure deep behind the lines. With limited firepower, such spending is simply not feasible - even ethical considerations aside.

☠️ Unfortunately, the events in #Dnepropetrovsk were not without casualties: according to the official Ukrainian side, the bodies of 30 residents of the building were removed from under the rubble, while 76 people were injured.

Whatever the cause of the explosion, the deaths of these people are a tragedy. Regardless of their possible political views, we must not relish and rejoice in the deaths of ordinary people. We should not be like the Kiev regime, for whom this is a common practice.

This is horrific.

Creepy shots: a destroyed column of the Armed Forces of Ukraine 🔞
Ukrainian military equipment was hit by the fire of Russian troops, some were seriously injured.

⚔️🇺🇸🐮💩 Analysis of the Situation in Ukraine by the US Troll Entity "Institute for the Study of War" (ISW):

🤥🇺🇸🇺🇦卐: It was clear that the Nazi trolls of the ISW were spreading the unsubstantiated lies of the authorities of the Ukrofascist regime. There is no evidence for the claims so far. The Russians do not use expensive missiles to target civilians, unlike the Nazi terrorists who waste munitions on civilian rather than military targets. It is simply disgusting to be confronted daily with the lies of the ISW rabble. Alarm is still not sounded by the deceivers, although the defeats of the terrorists are fierce.

🔻 January 15 Key Takeaways 👻

▪️ Ukrainian officials specified that a Russian Kh-22 missile struck a residential building in Dnipro City on January 14, killing at least 25–30 civilians. Ukrainian officials clarified inaccurate reporting that Ukrainian air defenses may have caused the destruction to the building, noting that Ukraine does not have the capability to shoot down Kh-22 missiles.

▪️ Wagner Group financier Yevgeny Prigozhin awarded medals to Wagner Group forces for the capture of Soledar, likely in an ongoing effort to frame the capture of Soledar as a Wagner accomplishment rather than a joint effort with the Russian Armed Forces, as the Russian Ministry of Defense previously claimed.

▪️ The Ukrainian General Staff reported that Ukrainian forces repelled Russian ground assaults near Makiivka and Bilohorivka, Luhansk Oblast. A Russian milblogger claimed that Russian forces are transferring Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) off-road vehicles from Russia to Luhansk Oblast, possibly for use in combat.

▪️ Russian sources claimed that Russian forces finished clearing Soledar and attacked Ukrainian positions to the north, west, and southwest of the settlement. A Ukrainian source reported that Russian forces captured a mine west of Soledar near Dvorichchia on January 15.

▪️ Russian forces continued to attack Bakhmut and areas to the north, east, south, and southwest of the city. Russian forces made marginal territorial gains southwest of Bakhmut near Andriivka.

▪️ Ukrainian Kherson Oblast Military Advisor Serhiy Khlan stated that Russian forces increased their presence in occupied Kherson Oblast and that some Wagner Group forces arrived in Kherson Oblast. Russian occupation head of Kherson Oblast Vladimir Saldo claimed that the restoration of the Henichesk-Arabat Spit bridge improved Russian logistics into occupied Kherson Oblast.

▪️ A Russian servicemember reportedly detonated a grenade in a building where Russian soldiers quartered in Belgorod Oblast, Russia, possibly in a fratricidal act of resistance against mobilization. A Russian source reported that the grenade attack killed three and injured 10 mobilized personnel.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Boris Rozhin on the Situation at #Soledar; pub. 16 Jan 2023, 12:09⚡️

🔹After yesterday's advance at Mine 7, the Wagner assault troops are also making progress in clearing the #Sol railway station. Despite fierce resistance, the enemy is gradually being driven out of there. The AFU reserves deployed to this area have not yet resulted in a stabilization of the situation.

🔹Near #Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut), our assault groups have made tangible progress in #Kleshchiyevka (fighting has shifted from the fortifications to the settlement itself) and in the southeastern quarters of #Artyomovsk.

🔹Krasnyaya Gora has not yet been taken, the fighting for it continues.

▪️The Wagner PMC fighters once again have to beat back house after house, breaking through the well-fortified AFU defence, which makes use of fortifications and terrain.
