Situation in Ukraine
It has been 744 days since Russia invaded Kyiv.
First,
general things.
According to the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces,
the Russian military losses are
850 soldiers
6 tanks
25 armored combat vehicles
53 cannons
1 multiple rocket launcher
3 air defense systems
43 drones
95 other vehicles.
The entire front reported 86 ground battles in a single day.
And the ratio of the number of losses of Ukrainian equipment to Russian losses,
which can be visually confirmed,
is 1 to 3.7,
compared to the losses on the Ukrainian side.
The Russian losses are mostly military trucks,
infantry fighting vehicles and tanks,
while the Ukrainian losses are mostly pickups and tanks.
Here is a short news report about the situation in Ukraine.
You can also use the YouTube chapter feature to watch where you need to.
Today we will send you five news items.
Number one.
We told you about what French President Macron said to the parliamentary leaders in yesterday's video,
Roussel of the French Communist Party reported that "President Macron said he is ready to send French troops to Ukraine if Russian troops approach Kyiv or Odessa," and used a map to explain the scenario.
With polls showing that 60% of French people oppose the deployment of French troops in Ukraine,
President Macron's move is attracting attention.
2.
President Macron also announced at a press conference that in order to focus on supporting Ukraine,
he would halt the delivery of artillery systems and shells that he planned to sell to Saudi Arabia and Qatar,
and negotiate the repurchase of the weapons sold to them.
Similar negotiations are reportedly underway in Germany and Italy,
Saudi Arabia has previously purchased 156 Caesar self-propelled artillery pieces and 100 105mm howitzers from France,
while Qatar has 20 AMXF3 self-propelled artillery pieces and a German PzH2000.
Third.
According to Medusa,
Russia has set quotas for members of the United Russia party,
civil servants and employees of state-owned companies to bring them to the polls in order to increase turnout in the presidential elections from 70% to 80%.
For example,
there is a quota of 10 members of the United Russia party,
3 civil servants,
and 2 employees of state corporations.
Even in the case of absentee voting,
the recommendation is recorded along with the voter's name,
address,
telephone number,
and e-mail address.
Fourth.
An article in Foreign Affairs analyzes that the war in Ukraine will reach a turning point this summer and Russia will emerge victorious if the West does not provide the necessary arms and ammunition.
The paper is long,
so to make it short,
it points out that while the Russian army is weakened but capable of continuing the war,
the Ukrainian army will sooner or later be unable to hold the front line if U.S.
support is delayed and ammunition is in short supply.
Fifth.
During his visit to Turkey,
President Zelensky visited a shipyard where two corvettes are being built for Ukraine.
According to the video,
one of the ships has been painted and outfitted and will be delivered to Ukraine by the end of the year.
The Turkish Ayda class corvettes are 99.5 meters long,
have a capacity of 2,300 tons,
anti-ship,
anti-air and anti-submarine capabilities,
can carry a patrol helicopter and have a crew of 85.
Now,
here is the war situation in each region.
I will tell you where the battle situation is changing.
You can follow the changes in the war situation in detail on the large full-screen display.
Northeast: Luhansk region
Eastern part,
towards Bakhmut
This section reports on the war situation on the Svatove-Kreminna line from Halkiu and Kupyansk,
and from the Siversk area to the Bakhmut area.
In this area the Russians attacked twice at Shinkivka,
13 times around Terny and Sibersk,
and 6 times around Bakhmut.
Around Sibersk
In this area,
the Russians have opportunistically intensified their offensives.
1.
According to video footage from a day ago with location information,
Russian forces have launched more than 20 multiple rocket attacks along the railroad between Vesere and Spirne to check the Ukrainian military movements.
Russian forces may launch an offensive in this direction in the future.
The map below shows the Russian side of the area as shown on the map.
The battle map is unchanged.
2.
The Russians also attacked Rozdorivka with more than 15 multiple rocket attacks.
The Russians are trying to force the Ukrainians to wear down their forces in order to take advantage of the ground attack that may take place at some point in the future.
The battle map remains unchanged.
Bakhmut Area
1.
In Bohdanivka and Ivanivske,
the Russians attack,
but the Ukrainians defend,
leaving the map unchanged.
2.
The Russians advanced in a large column north of Klishchiivka and attempted to overrun the high ground north of the town,
but were discovered by the Ukrainians,
who destroyed the column before it could reach the front line,
losing a total of 12 BMP infantry fighting vehicles,
two tanks,
and 18 other vehicles.
However,
signaling the retreat,
the infantry from the IFVs now moved forward,
and when the Russian soldiers reached the northern entrance to the city,
the Ukrainian troops repulsed them with drones.
What we are showing you is the Ukrainian side and the location shown on the map.
The battle map is unchanged.
Southeast,
Donetsk region.
The weather in Avdiivka is sunny and sometimes cloudy.
The minimum temperature is -5 degrees Celsius and the maximum is 4 degrees Celsius.
Today's weather is forecast to be mostly sunny.
Here is an update on the situation in Avdiivka,
Marinka and Vuhledar.
Avdiivka
In this sector the Russians have carried out 23 attacks,
mainly on the lines of Berdych,
Orlivka and Tonenke,
where the 114th and 30th motorized rifle brigades have been reorganized and are simultaneously conducting offensive operations while sending reinforcements from another motorized rifle brigade.
1.
On the attack axis of Stepove and Berdici,
the Russians are on the offensive and increasing the pressure.
According to the position video,
the Russians are launching a frontal attack on Verdici,
while the Ukrainians are counterattacking by drone in the Verdici settlement and blocking the advancing Russians in an ambush,
confirming the advance of the Russians to this location.
What we are showing you is a view of the location shown on the map,
with Russian soldiers walking in close proximity to Ukrainian soldiers.
There is no change to the battle map at this time,
as this is happening in disputed territory.
2.
In Orlivka,
the battle map remains unchanged,
but a BMP infantry fighting vehicle with Russian infantry has been destroyed in the center of the southern settlement.
Third.
Yesterday we reported that the Russian troops were concentrating on Tonenke,
where,
according to the found video,
the Russian troops advanced and attached themselves to the factory shown on the map and engaged in fighting with the Ukrainian troops.
The video shown is from the Ukrainian side and shows Russian soldiers occupying the factory from above.
Also unconfirmed is the possibility that Russian troops may have occupied the nursery north of the factory.
Assuming that the Russians occupied this location from disputed territory,
Tonenke has updated the battle map to include the residential area to the west as disputed territory.
Otherwise,
on the Pervomaiske and Neveleske attack axis,
the Russian attack was repelled by Ukrainian forces,
leaving the battle map unchanged.
Marinka Sector
In this sector,
the Russians have made 27 attacks and are trying to break through the Ukrainian defensive line,
but there is little information today and there are no changes in the battle map from what we reported yesterday.
South,
Zaporizhia province.
In this sector the Russians made three attacks on Prioutne,
Verbovye and Robotyne.
1.
In Verbovye,
where we reported in yesterday's video that the Russians attacked two days in a row and were repulsed in the same place,
the Russians fired nine confirmed shells along the route of their advance,
weakening the Russian forces.
The Russian troops in this area are advancing on four-wheeled baby carriages purchased from China.
These baby carriages seem to have the advantage of being light and not reacting to anti-tank mines,
and the Russians are increasing their use of the Desert Cross.
The battle map remains unchanged.
2nd.
At 166 Highlands the Ukrainian forces counterattacked,
but the Russians returned fire and a close combat ensued.
The Ukrainians then attacked the Russian positions with drones.
By the way,
the PT91 is the main battle tank developed in Poland based on the T72.
What I am showing you is the Ukrainian side and the Russian troops in the locations indicated on the map.
There is no change in the battle map.
Third.
In Robotyne,
the Russians attacked south of the town,
but the Russians retreated at the location shown on the map with the loss of one BMP3 infantry fighting vehicle.
Again,
no change to the battle map.
BBBB
South,
Kherson province.
In this sector,
the Russians attacked Krinky twice,
but were repulsed by Ukrainian forces.
Conversely,
the Ukrainians entered the forested area shown on the map and dug in,
establishing a stronghold.
The Russians attacked this location with multiple rocket launchers,
which proved to be the case.
We have updated the combat map of this location from Russian Occupied to Disputed.
That's all for today.
Thank you for watching.
