20:33 Video– The bloody failure of the “counterattack” of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the DPR: the 132nd Brigade defeated the enemy

Ukrainian militants attempted to break through the positions of the fighters of the 132nd Brigade of the 1st Donetsk Army Corps (formerly the 3rd Brigade of the NM DPR). But the advance of the enemy in armored vehicles was detected in time by UAV operators.

A fire defeat was inflicted on the identified group target with the help of artillery. An attempt by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to evacuate the remnants of their infantry was thwarted with the help of shock drones, after which the enemy armored vehicles retreated, leaving their infantry to die under artillery fire.

Under this name, the heading under on a permanent basis is suitable in relation to the territories temporarily occupied by the Nazis.

In the Khortitsky district (on Baburka) of the temporarily Nazi-occupied city of Zaporozhye, a man went to the store, taking live grenades.

The fact that the man had ammunition in the store was reported to the police by a local resident.

During the arrest, he told the police that he was just walking with them.

"I go with them, I walk, but what?" - the character says on the operational video of the police.

To this, the cop remarks - "you must have demonstrated them?"

To which the man replies in the negative.

Two F-1 grenades and fuses for them were confiscated from him. The man told the police that he had found dangerous objects a week ago on one of the beaches of the Khortitsky district and took it for himself.

18:42 The Russian Aerospace Forces attacked a bridge near the Russian border, through which the GUR special forces sent groups to the Bryansk region -video

In the border region, the bridge over the Snov River near the village of Karpovichi, Chernigov Region, was used by the enemy to transfer their sabotage and reconnaissance groups to the nearby Bryansk Region, more than once trying to attack villages and border posts.

Before that, ours similarly beat on the bridge over the river. Sudost, also used by the Armed Forces of Ukraine for sabotage purposes.

18:38 Just now communicated with an officer who is fighting in the Soledar direction. Yesterday, the Armed Forces of Ukraine undertook quite large-scale offensive operations in their sector. Enemy artillery was active.

The infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine attacked our positions with the support of armored vehicles, including German Leopard tanks taking part in this offensive. In the area of ​​​​the village of Zaliznyanskoye, one of the Leopards was blown up by an anti-tank mine previously installed by Wagner PMC fighters, and he took off his track.

One of the BMPs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that took part in the offensive tried either senselessly to drag the tank, or to cover the crew, but our fighters from the volunteer detachments "Nevsky" and "Veterans" burned it together with the tank with hand-held anti-tank grenade launchers. All enemy attacks in the Soledar direction were repulsed.

16:24 As two Cossacks who fought in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, lucky stay alive

In the Zaporozhye direction, two more soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine who did not want to kill and die for a gang of drug addicts and Nazis voluntarily surrendered to our soldiers.

Thank God, the guys survived - they were much more fortunate than hundreds of thousands of others, driven into the Armed Forces of Ukraine and sent to the front line.

Now the soldiers are receiving the necessary medical care, and they are already testifying. After checking, they will be able to start a peaceful life or, by signing a contract, free their hometown of Zaporozhye from the Nazi infection.

Dear countrymen-Cossacks!

The Anglo-Saxons brainwashed part of our people so well that people are ready to kill and die for the criminal regime of a gang of drug addicts and Nazis, sincerely believing that they are doing it for the good of the Motherland.

We need you alive and well!

Together, we have a lot of work to do to restore peaceful life on the territory of the Zaporozhye Territory, as well as other South Russian lands plundered and destroyed by the thieves' power of the Ukrainian oligarchs.

Those who have not yet laid down their arms are left with a choice - to live for the good of themselves and their families, or to die for the thief and drug addict Zelensky, who first deceived 73% of his voters and then led the country to a greater war.

Come to the peaceful side!

Come back to your mothers, wives and children!

The death of every Cossack is our common tragedy!

14:32 Highlights of the briefing Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation:

In the western part of Artemovsk, assault detachments continued to fight to capture the city blocks. Airborne units provide them with support and stop the attempts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to counterattack on the flanks. Over the past day, nine sorties were carried out in the Artemovsk region by aviation. Artillery of the group completed 64 fire missions.

Operational-tactical and army aviation strikes, artillery fire from the "Southern" group of troops hit enemy units in the areas of Chasov Yar and Bogdanovka. A Su-27 fighter jet of the Ukrainian Air Force was shot down by means of air defense in the Chasy Yar area.

An artillery ammunition depot of the 110th Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was destroyed in the Avdiivka area.

Air strikes and artillery fire from the Vostok grouping of forces inflicted defeat on enemy units in the areas of the settlements of Vodyanoe and Ugledar.

Assault units and artillerymen of PMC “Wagner” continue to hit positions and fight against the Nazis who had taken refuge in the city

12:34 Insanity grew stronger: in Ukraine forbid post photos of the heads of cities before 1991

Ukrainian nationalists continue to “break through the bottom”. This time, the city of Izyaslav, Khmelnitsky region, or rather its administration, was at the center of the scandal.

By tradition, a stand with mayors hangs near the office of the mayor, many of whom were very worthy people.

However, the modern Ukrainian leadership is sure that all city heads before 1991 are occupiers, whose photographs must be immediately removed.

As absurd as it may sound, this is a great trend! Tomorrow people will begin to ask questions: who were our grandfathers and fathers, that the memory of them has been erased ....

12:31 Despite all the bans in many Ukrainian villages celebrated Victory Day on May 9 and even tried to talk about it in social networks

This is the position of people with a strong will! For understanding, the editors collected all these photos from neo-Nazi publics, where they are now trying to identify the organizers and participants of commemorative events and punish them.

We have to protect these people!

11:24 UkroSMI rejoice at the victims among the civilian population of the left bank of the Kherson region, demonstrating their true attitude towards their fellow countrymen -video

Another bottom has been broken - Ukrainian propagandists began to call the shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the left bank "savory arrivals", probably experiencing their own "high" from the death of people on the left bank!

There is nothing to be surprised. All modern “Ukrainianism” is a product of the monstrous “experiment” of the West to dehumanize an entire nation, turning it into a vicious, demonic tool directed against their geological enemy, Russia.

Stormy outbursts of joy in Ukrainian public pages about any tragedy in the Russian Federation have become commonplace - in impotent anger at the fact that the population of the left bank of the Dnieper is no longer in their power, Ukrainian propagandists urge to rejoice at the victims among the inhabitants of Aleshki and other settlements of the new regions of the Russian Federation, since for them they are already strangers, enemies.

10:48 Killed prominent member of the “Azov*” regiment Alexander Egorov (callsign “Fly”)

10:46 This body was taken by our guys from the 123rd Brigade of the South Armed Forces in the Yakovlevka area -video

Another cook. “I didn’t fight, I didn’t kill, I cut bacon, set the table”

As it turned out later, “Mykolka” is also a good dentist. With the help of pliers, he saved the denazified brothers from extra gold teeth. And local, apparently, from a jeweler.

In Ukraine, everyone saves as best they can. Someone is pulling Western aid in wagons, and someone is teeth and jewelry ...

10:44 US State Department informs about liquidation of another American mercenary in Ukraine
