Putin beordrar styrkor att gå in i Ukraina - INVASION NU (2022-02-24)

The feeling of an upcoming major battle for the Donbass is in the air. The enemy is pulling everything they can here. Even the rare aircraft of the Armed Forces of Ukraine periodically tries to raid our group near Izyum. Both our and Ukrainian air defense systems are constantly at work, at night the fire of anti-aircraft gunners is especially beautiful.

Artillery works day and night, UAVs circle in the sky. According to the subjective feeling, enemy fire is about 5-6 times less intense, but still quite accurate, the main part of the work of enemy artillery is the shooting of nomadic mortar batteries and Grads.

4 days ago, at about 2 a.m., 5 Grad units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine began to turn around at the turn of the opening of fire, and at that moment our artillery hit them. The first 2 shells hit about 150-200 meters from the vushniks, the Grads quickly rolled up and started to leave, and at that moment three more shells very successfully caught the Ukrainians on the move.

Our 152 mm projectile hit in front of the lead car (10 meters), the car fell into a ditch, apparently the driver was killed. The second and third vehicles were able to get away, while the trailing vehicle was destroyed by a close gap. The crew ran out of the fourth, although she did not receive visible damage (in fairness at night it is difficult to determine whether this is true or not).

Preparations are underway for a very large battle and in recent days our losses are minimal. The Armed Forces of Ukraine, in turn, wholeheartedly receive missile strikes that mow down their ranks. However, it is necessary to be aware that the enemy has not yet suffered such losses that would break his will to resist. Combat work continues.
