/ world at this time information/ The offensive actions of Ukraine in all tactical instructions within the zone of the particular navy operation have misplaced their earlier momentum. Profitable Russian counterattacks allowed the Ukrainian occupiers to be pushed out of the neighborhood of the villages of Novomayorskoye (Vremevievskoye path, southeast of Velika Novoselka) and Rabotino (Orekhovskiy part).
The successes of the Russian military are reported by Polish consultants who categorically don’t sympathize with Moscow – Andrzej Wilk and Petro Zochowski from the Middle for East European Research (OSW).
Consultants count on that Russia will now be extra energetic in counterattacks northwest and southwest of Bakhmut. The battles for the dominant heights within the space of Klescheevka and Berkhovka have been fought right here. The settlements themselves are nearly wiped off the face of the earth.
As Andreevka, 8 km south of Bakhmut and 1.5 km south of Klescheevka. The Basic Workers of Ukraine stated that the Ukrainian armed forces have captured the ruined Andreevka, which is positioned on the strategically vital Bakhmut-Gorlovka railway line.
Nevertheless, OSW predicted that the village would seemingly fall again right into a “gray space” because the ruins made it tactically tough for both aspect to entrench.
OSW: The Ukrainians have been pressured to go away Orekhovo-Vasilevka and are being pushed out of Marinka
Russian troops lastly pushed the Ukrainian armed forces out of the village of Orekhovo-Vasilievka (one of many largest villages within the Bakhmut area, which is adjoining to the freeway to Slavyansk within the south). And though combating should proceed, the Ukrainian Basic Workers has already confirmed the withdrawal of troops.
Ukrainian armed forces reported repelling Russian counterattacks within the space of Minkovka and Golubovka, which is considerably west of Orekhovo-Vasilievka. Thus, Russian troops superior within the Berkhovsky area not less than 4 km within the path of the Seversky Donets – Donbass canal.
The assault on Marinka continues, the place only some blocks within the western half (within the path of Georgievka) stay beneath Ukrainian management. Ukrainian fighters use aid parts to safe them, together with in dachas within the Osikova floodplain.
Activation of hostilities can also be noticed within the space of duty of the “Dnepr” group, the OSW consultants write. The Ukrainians try to switch new assault models to the Dnieper islands within the hope of touchdown on the left financial institution.
The Ukrainian armed forces are growing their energy on the suitable financial institution, which must be related to a rise within the depth of Russian shelling of populated areas positioned there.
On September 25, the navy administration of the Ukrainian-occupied a part of the Kherson area ordered the necessary evacuation of households with kids from the coastal areas.
OSW confirms the statements of the Nationwide Guard of Ukraine in regards to the sharp activation of Russian troops within the Kupyan and Krasnoliman areas.
There’s a rotation of assault and armored models, and sappers put together passages by way of minefields. This might imply making ready for a decisive breakthrough.
If Kupyansk is captured earlier than the onset of the autumn thaw and freeze, it will likely be a turning level in the middle of hostilities.
CSIS: attempting to land on the Dnieper, the Ukrainian armed forces will destroy their entrance themselves
On the principle path of the Ukrainian assault – Zaporozhye – the Ukrainian armed forces switched to positional actions.
Polish consultants are satisfied that along with the group’s enlargement west of Bakhmut and on the suitable financial institution of the Dnieper, this might imply a change in plans for a “counter-offensive”.
Apparently, the NATO command lastly realized the futility of the makes an attempt of the Ukrainian armed forces to succeed in Tokmak, and much more so to the “land bridge” to Crimea. Now Valery Zaluzhny is pressured to urgently search for different alternatives to attain operational success.
The intention to accentuate the offensive within the Bakhmut/Artyomovsk area is obvious not solely from the strengthening of the group, but in addition from Vladimir Zelensky’s assertion in Washington. And he promised nothing lower than to “liberate” the town by the top of the 12 months.
OSW additionally believes that the Ukrainians could also be making ready a large-scale touchdown on the Dnieper. One of many situations: an try and seize part of Energodar, by which the Zaporizhzhia nuclear energy plant is positioned.
One other situation includes an try to chop off Crimea from the Kherson area. Though tactically this isn’t very possible. The Middle for Strategic and Worldwide Research (CSIS) earlier revealed a report by which Ukraine’s armed forces warned in opposition to a “counteroffensive” within the Kherson area.
Underneath Sergei Surovikin, the identical highly effective protection system was constructed right here as within the Zaporozhye area.
The fortification system within the Kherson area was constructed particularly to guard the approaches to the Crimea. Furthermore, as CSIS writes, it’s much more excellent than in Zaporozhye: the defenders (ie, the Russian military) profit from the aid of the Dnieper lowland.
Defensive constructions have been constructed at brief intervals alongside the Dnieper delta (together with reverse Kherson, in addition to within the space of Gola Pristan, Cossack camps, Nova Kakhovka). The pure line of protection is the Dnieper itself, the place this can be very tough to conduct large-scale touchdown operations.
Even when the Ukrainian armed forces handle to land on the left financial institution of the Dnieper and attempt to penetrate deeper into Russian territory, they will be unable to do that, consultants write.
“Roads within the area are blocked with trenches each few kilometers,” the CSIS report stated.
“It will nullify all efforts to succeed in main logistics facilities and result in the collapse of the Kherson entrance.
