15:26 Report of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation of September 10, 2022
- The headquarters of the 5th brigade of the national guard of Ukraine, the points of temporary deployment of units of the 92nd mechanized brigade and the nationalist formation "Kraken" in the areas of Balakliya and Chuguev of the Kharkiv region, as well as the command post of the 54th mechanized brigade were hit - up to 300 militants were destroyed;

- A total of 13 Ukrainian UAVs were shot down;
- In the area of Nova Kakhovka, five shells of the MLRS "HIMARS" were destroyed in the air.
15:12 In Balakliya and Chuguev, the points of the national battalion "Kraken" and the 92nd Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were hit, up to 300 Ukrainian servicemen and up to 15 units of military equipment were destroyed, the Russian Defense Ministry reports.
15:06 The Russian air defense system worked in Novaya Kakhovka, Kherson region, six explosions thundered - VGA.
15:01 The RF Armed Forces indeed left Izyum, RBC confirms with reference to DPR First Deputy Minister of Information Daniil Bezsonov:
“Yes, they left Izyum, as well as from some other settlements in the Kharkiv direction.”
14:50 In the battles in the Izyum direction, an experienced “Vlasovite” was liquidated, who went over to the side of the Ukrainians back in 2014 - Vasily Volgin with the call sign “Rubin”.
The term "Vlasovite" refers to Soviet General Andrey Vlasov who went over to the German side in late 1941. His name is to Russia what Benedict Arnold is to the US.
13:53 From today, the Russian Federation simplifies entry for Ukrainians from the liberated territories of the Kharkiv region. Previously, the entry rule was 1/5. At the moment, you can travel to the territory of the Russian Federation without waiting for the end of the corridor in five days.
13:15 The guys who are now heroically working in the Liman direction report: "Ukrainains did not approach Liman, the battle is going on much further south, in Dibrovo and near Brusovka." Barsy and other units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and allies are cut there.
12:15 There are reports that the troops are withdrawing from Izyum beyond Oskol in order to avoid encirclement in the event of an enemy breakthrough to Oskol and Gorokhovatka. Apparently, at the current stage, it is not possible to keep the logistics to Izyum, so the choice was made in favor of keeping the troops in order to avoid the boiler.
11:42 Russian Armed Forces are reporting missile strikes in the Poltava region. There are several arrivals.
11:35 The Armed Forces of Ukraine set up a graveyard of themselves and their equipment in the gut in the Kherson-Nikolaev direction, today the pilots finished off the survivors there, this is good, against the backdrop of news from the Kharkiv region.
11:20 The enemy entered Kupyansk, the RF Armed Forces fortified beyond the Oskol River. Balakalei is still not under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, there are fights. The divisions of the Russian Guard and the Defense Ministry entered the battle in the Izyumen direction.
11:02 We have to admit that it was not possible to contain the enemy near Kupyansk. Together with the reserves, the detached units take up defense along the eastern bank of the Oskol. Things are also unimportant in Izyum - military correspondent Aleksandr Kots.
10:00 Our army leaves for the Oskol River to take up defense there. I support this decision. Yesterday Vladlen Tatarsky said in his evening edition that this decision would be the most correct from the point of view of military art.
To maintain a foothold on the right bank, in the face of overwhelming numerical superiority of the enemy at any cost, introducing reserves in a dosed way, I consider it pointless. We do not have as many lives of soldiers, unlike the Ukrainians.
It's a tough decision, but overall I think it's the right one. Now the task is to competently withdraw the troops across the river, gain a foothold and prevent the Izyum group from being surrounded. Once again, take off your rose-colored glasses. Not only
09:30 Spain will soon begin training Ukrainian troops on its territory - El Mundo. The publication notes that Ukrainian soldiers will be taught to use tanks and missile systems.
09:10 AM Advance of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kharkiv direction of the battle chronicle on September 9, 2022:
The Ukrainian Armed Forces continue their offensive in the Kharkiv region for the fourth day. The immediate goals of the Armed Forces of Ukraine remained the same - to occupy Kupyansk and blockade Izyum.
Shevchenkovo came under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Ukrainian DRGs operate on the western outskirts of Kupyansk. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have not yet entered the settlement itself.
Ukrainian artillery strikes at the liberated territories on the left bank of the Oskol. The bridge in Kupyansk was damaged.
Reinforcements of the RF Armed Forces are arriving at Kupyansk: heavy transport helicopters Mi-26 are used for their transfer.
The fate of Balakliya remains unclear to the end: if the center of the city is clearly under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, then shooting is still heard in the eastern outskirts. The state of the front section up to Savintsy is also unknown.
08:13 On September 5, during the "liberation campaign" against Kherson, the commander of a mechanized company of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Captain Eduard Kamardin, was disposed of by the Russian military.
