| Situation in Bakhmut |
| 2023-04-09 |
| [VK] ▪Boarding School area: Almost completely under the control of Wagner subdivisions. Assault groups have already approached the Elevator area, having reached the fork in the railroad tracks. ▪District Zona: PMC "Wagner" took the Metallurg Stadium and approached Kuznechnaya Street. The advanced positions of the “musicians” are located in the Upper Park area. The railway station and the Church of All Saints are still under enemy control. ▪Avangard stadium area: The alignment of the front line along Bakhmutskaya and Rozhdestvenskaya streets has been completed. ▪Fighting continues in the areas of Poselok, Vodokanal and Samolet, as well as near the suburbs of Khromovo and Ivanovskoye (Krasny). Contrary to the reports of a number of media and Telegram channels, the Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to offer fierce resistance. No one retreated from the strong point between Korsunsky and Tchaikovsky streets either. The supply route from Hours of Yar has not yet been physically cut. Reports of the fall of Bakhmut are, to put it mildly, premature. The fighters of the Wagner PMC are doing their job well, but there is no need to run ahead of the locomotive. More from Reports from the militia of Novorossiya 04/08/23. Note from the resource "Military Chronicle". [VK] PMC " ⚡Wagner" began to cut off the supply of the Armed Forces in Artyomovsk: details operations are inflicted cutting-off strikes in the area of field crossings between Krasny (Ivanovsky) and Chasovy Yar, as well as Chasovy Yar and Kalinovka.Due to the activity of artillery, it is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the transport corridor necessary for supplying the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Artyomovsk. The forces of the 4th Tank and 30th Mechanized Brigades were used to support the logistics of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, however, the military equipment accompanying the convoys with supplies and ammunition is also hit by Giacint-B guns and Krasnopol shells of 152 mm caliber. For the transportation of ammunition, medicines and equipment, the Armed Forces of Ukraine use any available transport: HMMWV armored vehicles, American and Soviet armored personnel carriers, as well as civilian unarmored vehicles. However, the tactics of "mosquito logistics", when the supply is carried out in small batches, is violated by the artillery fire of the "orchestra". The Armed Forces of Ukraine have to use impromptu crossings because of the previously destroyed bridges. Their units of the Ukrainian army blew up to slow down the advance of the "musicians" deep into Artemovsk (Bakhmut). The video shows one of the sections between Chasovy Yar and Khromov. Due to impenetrable mud and artillery fire, more than 15 pieces of destroyed equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine accumulated on a small patch of land, including a tank of the 4th Separate Tank Brigade, which got stuck in the mud and was destroyed by anti-tank systems. |
