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

Regarding the situation on the Izyum front, the most intense point of the war at the moment. Units and subunits of the heroic (this is not sarcasm) 20th army took the village of Dolgenkoye and are regrouping, preparing for further offensive operations.

The assault on the village was difficult and bloody. The forests in the immediate vicinity of this settlement were well fortified, and our arte and special forces had to work very hard, smoking the sushniks from the greenery. Now in Sherwood Forest there are many corpses of Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers, who, most likely, like their unfortunate predecessors, will be buried in a common pit, Ukraine does not take the corpses of its soldiers, no matter how much we offer them.

The neighbors on the left continue their offensive along the left bank of the Seversky Donets River, the neighbors on the right approached the settlement of Kurulka, which will soon face the fate of Dolgenky. After the capture of Kurulka, the Slavic-Kramatorsk enemy grouping will be cut off from the supply routes for fuel and ammunition. Delivery will be possible only by forest and country roads, on single vehicles.

Russian troops are moving slowly but surely. They take care of the personnel and try to destroy the enemy with artillery, missiles and aircraft. In general, our offensive in this direction is similar to the movement of a road roller, which, although not fast, but reliably rolls the asphalt.

The equipment is advanced only after the sappers have carried out an engineering reconnaissance of the area, since the mines of the Armed Forces of Ukraine did not regret and generously scattered them on the paths of a possible offensive by Russian troops. Russian artillery has been conducting an extremely successful counter-battery battle for several days, which forced quite sensible Ukrainian artillery to work from extreme distances, changing positions after each volley.

In general, everything remains as before. The Russian army is grinding the enemy, the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are growing exponentially, and Ukraine is trying to shut up the front with fresh reinforcements, throwing them into battle directly from the wheels, which certainly further increases the number of dead and wounded in the ranks of the Ukrainian army.

Dmitry Steshin reports that last night at about 21.00 Deputy commander of Azov "Kalina" surrendered at Azovstal.

We are waiting for confirmation of information and details.
