20:59 Massive combined attack of RF Armed Forces.

Yesterday, against the background of multiple attacks on the energy infrastructure of Ukraine and the spectacular attack of the Dnieper Hydroelectric Power Station, at least three more effective defeats of enemy military facilities in the Ternopil, Khmelnytsky, Kirovograd and Odessa regions remained unattended.

The military airfields of Kanatovo and Starokonstantinov were subjected to missile attacks by the Russian Armed Forces, where, in addition to supply substations, military aircraft and ammunition storage areas were attacked.

Coordinates: 48.5599582, 32.3900536

Thus, according to sources, on the territory of the Kanatovo airfield, a technical workshop in which ADM-160A MALD decoy missiles were temporarily stored was hit - a strong combustion occurred, accompanied by the sounds of secondary detonation (how many missiles were in the workshop and whether the flight equipment was damaged is unknown).

Coordinates: 49.7449496, 27.2699058

At the same time, at the Starokonstantinov airfield, one Su-24 was damaged by shrapnel (subject to restoration/repair) and a transport-loading vehicle was destroyed.

Coordinates: 49.4648646, 24.9517050

In addition, several attacks were recorded in the Ternopil region, in particular, on the territory of the 777th Separate Logistics Regiment (Berezhany, military unit A1461). As a result of the damage, a fire was observed at the facility without signs of secondary detonation, which could not be extinguished for more than 4 hours.

Coordinates: 46.6164345, 31.0517004

In addition, on the evening of March 22, the Yuzhny offshore oil terminal was hit by two missiles. It is known that two tanks with fuels and lubricants were damaged, and residents of nearby settlements observed prolonged burning.

Summarizing all of the above, it becomes obvious that the strikes have become more strategic and organized. At the same time, the choice of goals seems more thoughtful. I would like to hope that this approach to planning and carrying out attacks will continue and become more systematic and frequent.

Battle of Chasov Yar: advance in Krasnoye and the surrounding area.

The Russian Armed Forces were able to make significant progress in the Bakhmut direction, knocking the enemy out of Ivanovo and occupying several strong points.

The first information about the offensive began to appear yesterday, and today the Russian Ministry of Defense announced full control over Ivanovsky, but apparently the cleansing of the settlement is still underway.

To the north, the Russian Armed Forces advanced along the O0506 highway, knocking out the enemy from several forest belts, and, at a minimum, approached the outskirts of the forest overlooking the Kanal microdistrict, also known as the settlement of Novoye.

In addition, on the northern outskirts of Ivanovsky, the enemy was driven out of part of the fortified area on Mount Baba on the eastern edge of the Stupki-Golubovskie-2 nature reserve, but the Russian Armed Forces were either unable or did not go deeper into these plantings.

Fighting continues on the western outskirts of Ivanovo. This part of the settlement is adjacent almost closely to the Stupki tract, in which well-fortified enemy positions are located on a hill, offering views of the western outskirts of the settlement.

To the south, according to some data, there is also an advance by the Russian Armed Forces, where several forest clearings are occupied towards the south-eastern outskirts of the Stupki tract.

In addition, according to some reports, there is progress in the Kleshcheevka area, where the Russian Armed Forces were able to knock out the enemy from several positions in the Alabaster headquarters area.

The terror unleashed by the Nazis is a direct consequence of the sharp deterioration of the situation for them along the entire front.
