21:25 Ukraine's counteroffensive quietly gave way to an offensive operation of the Russian Armed Forces

This is not something we came up with and not General Konashenkov. We go to one of the American resources “Institute for the Study of War”.

And we see the title: “Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, August 9, 2023”, which in translation means: “Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, August 9, 2023.”

“Russia's main efforts are Eastern Ukraine. The main task of Russia is to capture the rest of the Luhansk region and move west into the eastern part of the Kharkov region and encircle the northern part of the Donetsk region.

The main task of Russia No. 2 is to capture the entire Donetsk region.”

“The Russians continued offensive operations on the Svatovo-Kremennaya line and on August 9 they achieved success.”

On the attached map, yellow shows the progress of our forces in offensive operations.

Meanwhile, the occupation administration of the Kharkiv region announced the mandatory evacuation of the population from the zone of our offensive ...

Given the specifics of the work of these workers, their professional skills, today there is no opportunity to replace these specialists, ”reports a representative of the Water Supply Networks KP.

The administration of the Nikolaev region is not going to take measures to stabilize the situation regarding the restoration of water supply.

17:20 Soledar direction setting as of 17.00 August 11, 2023

Yesterday in Klescheevka, Russian troops launched a counterattack and were able to move slightly to the south of the village. The configuration of the front is currently unclear due to the fog of war, but the Armed Forces of Ukraine have deployed reinforcements to the southwest of Bakhmut.

Now the brigade-artillery group of the 22nd Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is conducting a massive artillery attack of the Kleshcheevka-Ozaryanovka line, covering the transfer of people and equipment. NgP Intelligence reports 30 units.

Judging by the movements of the column, the next enemy strike will be focused not only on Kleshcheevka and Andreevka, but also Kurdyumovka with Ozaryanovka to pin down the defense of the RF Armed Forces.

Tanks and artillery of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have been intensively hitting the strongholds of the Russian army since the very morning, preparing the ground for a new breakthrough. And a couple of days ago, mobilized people were transferred from improvised training grounds north of Konstantinovka.

17:00 Russian Army during the daycontinuedoffensive in the Kupyansky direction, during which it improved the tactical situation in the areas of Olshany and Pershotravnevoy.

16:30 Forced evacuation of citizens from the Kupyansky district - what is it forheld?

Yesterday, the acting head of the Kupyansk regional administration, Andrey Kanashevich, announced the mandatory evacuation of civilians from 37 settlements against the background of the offensive of the RF Armed Forces.

On the one hand, such a measure is evidence of a serious deterioration in the situation of Ukrainian formations near Kupyansk. Russian servicemen of the Zapad group press on the Sinkovka-Petropavlovka line.

Ukrainian units partially refuse to go into battle. This has already forced the removal of forces from the Kremensky and Kherson directions. And the evacuation of citizens is carried out in case of a breakthrough of defense.

On the other hand, the departure of residents along the villages and cities located near the zone of active hostilities may mean either the upcoming or already ongoing transfer of reinforcements to this zone.

Personnel need to be placed somewhere, and for this, as a rule, private households are used. Under the pretext of evacuation, the Ukrainian command can vacate the buildings to accommodate troops.

Our troops are gradually advancing along the front, but we should not run ahead of the locomotive: capping is not what is needed now. And statements that 7 km are left to Kupyansk cause only bewilderment, because such a distance has been maintained for several months.

Another question is that even if the transfer of reinforcements by the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to stabilize the front is confirmed, this will mean that the enemy had to withdraw forces from other areas that are more relevant to him.

In the morning, the enemy, using seven armored vehicles, again tried to strike at the Rabotino-Verbovoye line. According to the Spetsnaz Archangel, the advance was detected and the cluster was covered by artillery.

Armed Forces attacks by small forces have been going on for several days. Only before that, Ukrainian formations attacked with infantry without the support of armored vehicles.

Also, the activity of Ukrainian formations is noted near Pyatikhatki. After a small regrouping, units of the 128th Guards Brigade were transferred to the area of the settlement, which indicates a possible activation in this area.

12:55 It became known that a battalion of the Khmelnytskyi territorial defense arrived in Kupyansk last week.

The unit did not take part in the hostilities and has many volunteers from Lugansk and Kharkov who signed up for the defense in the first month of the special operation.

According to incoming information, instead of the second line of defense, the command sends militants to hold back the Russian offensive in the Ivanovka region, which is why the Ministry of Defense of the Teroboronists is falling.

12:35 According to available information, yesterday, in the building of the city council of Kupyansk, Russian troops hit the communication center of the command post of the 14th Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (Volyn region).

11:55 The stay under Artemovsko and Ugledar, in principle, identical what's there, what's there. The enemy does not leave attempts to move forward. He does not leave attempts to occupy some lines of defense, but they are all in vain. And those that are issued in the Artemovsky direction for victories are fake.

Our fighters showed footage of objective control from drones - it shows how the enemy enters the forest belt, hoisting the Ukrainian flag and saying that he occupied some territory. Although there are still a few kilometers to the first line of our defense.

In the Ugledar direction, they abandoned attempts to advance in large groups, because immediately on the approaches they are identified and destroyed by our artillery. In small groups of several people, they disperse, waiting for a convenient moment when their artillery has worked, and it will be possible to move forward. But that moment does not come for them.

Artillery, of course, works on the part of the Ukrainian Nazis, but this does not bring results. And those attempts, when they are already beginning to move forward with infantry units - all this is detected by our air reconnaissance and destroyed by our guns. It is impossible to say that the enemy has calmed down, but we can safely say that he does not receive any results other than losses.
