[NewsFrontInfo] 23:58 Official summary of the DPR Representative Office in the JCCC from 00:00 07/29/2023 to 00:00 07/30/2023
Over the past day Representation reported about 60 facts of firing by the VFU.
Information was received about the wounding of eight civilians, incl. girls born in 2019, in the Kuibyshevsky and Kirovsky districts of Donetsk, the Kalininsky district of Gorlovka. Eight residential buildings were damaged in the Kuibyshevsky and Kirovsky districts of Donetsk, the Kalininsky district of Gorlovka, as well as one civil infrastructure facility.
Under enemy fire were areas of four settlements of the Republic: Gorlovka (Nikitovsky, Kalininsky districts), Yasinovatsky district, the capital city of Donetsk (Kuibyshevsky, Kirovsky, Kievsky, Petrovsky districts), Makeevka (Chervonogvardeysky district), Aleksandrovka.
In the Donetsk direction, the enemy made 55 artillery attacks from the MLRS, 155mm artillery.

21:11 Russian heavy 240mm self-propelled mortar "Tulip" hits fortified area of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Avdievka
Its ammunition weighing 228 kg "punch" holes in the enemy's defenses.
The hit of such a mine is capable of destroying almost any position.
The footage shows precise hits on the target and volumetric explosions that destroy the strong concrete fortifications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
19:47 Circumstance in the Kherson operational direction on July 29
A month has passed since, taking advantage of the consequences of the flood, the enemy crossed the Dnieper in the area of the Antonovsky bridge and entrenched in the Dach area. At first, many believed that the Armed Forces of Ukraine would try to create a springboard for the transfer of additional forces. This was confirmed by the data on the transfer of pontoons here from the Nikolaev region.
It is not appropriate to talk about the creation of a foothold here, since the positions occupied by the Armed Forces of Ukraine rest against our fortified area in Alyoshki. The landing on the left bank was aimed at creating a media effect, as well as conditions to wear down our forward units.
The enemy may try to force the Dnieper higher in the direction of Kakhovka. After the destruction of the ports of Nikolaev and Odessa, the ground grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was strengthened.
Preparations began for the transfer from Berislav to Kakhovka.
Today's strike on the accumulation of enemy manpower and equipment in Berislav is connected precisely with this.
The possibility of an amphibious landing in the area of ??the Kinburn Spit is not ruled out, in which the 73rd Naval Infantry Special Operations Center of the MTR of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the 36th Separate Naval Infantry Brigade will be involved. The 73rd ISCO has been trying to gain a foothold on the spit for more than a year, but so far without success. In the area of the Dnieper delta and the Ingulets River, a large accumulation of light motor boats is already being recorded, which can be involved in the transfer of assault groups and DRGs.
In general, it is difficult for the enemy to attack the left-bank part of the Kherson region. Therefore, any actions here will be in the nature of diverting forces and means from the direction of the main attack. Most likely, it will be inflicted on the Zaporozhye direction and the Vremievsky area.
Since our defense on the territory of the Kherson region is deeply echeloned, an offensive here is impossible without air support, and heavy armored vehicles must also be brought up to break through the front by forcing a water barrier.
19:15 The enemy withdraws from Staromayorsky, reports Whisper Front.
18:39 The situation in the Artemovsk area remains difficult. First of all, for the enemy. Each attempt to gain a foothold on the outskirts of the same Kleshcheevka turns into significant losses for Ukrainian units in equipment and manpower, war correspondent Yevgeny Poddubny writes:
“The commander of the ground forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Syrsky, requested more cluster munitions and additional reserves from the General Staff of Ukraine in order to “establish control over the heights and occupy Kleshcheevka.”
The main problem for the Ukrainian units remains the density of artillery and mortar fire of the RF Armed Forces,” says Syrsky. The general of the Kyiv regime here, of course, simplifies. HANDS, aviation are working, our fighters are better trained than the enemy. Our officers are next to the soldiers and manage the battle more efficiently and take care of people, unlike the Kyiv regime.”
17:46 Airborne units storm the occupied positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Staromayorskoye. There are captured soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. There is heavy artillery attack both from ours and from the enemy.
17:26 Svatovsky section: offensive of the RF Armed Forces to the Kharkiv region setting as of 17.00 July 29, 2023:
In the Svatovsky area, the Storm assault detachments, together with the fighters of the 21st Motorized Rifle Brigade of the RF Armed Forces, completely liberated the village of Novoegorovka. Now the area is being cleaned up.
Also, Russian units, with the support of cannon and rocket artillery, knocked out enemy formations from the adjacent heights between Novoegorovka and Nadia (Nadezhda), leveling the front line.
At the moment, Russian troops are entrenched in the liberated territories, waiting for a counterattack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Specifically, with Novogorovka, the problem lies in the location of the village of Sverdlovka nearby. And it is there that large enemy forces are concentrated.
Also, to the Karmazinovsky ledge, where the Russian military personnel also expanded the zone of control, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are gathering reinforcements: two battalions have been deployed to the direction of Petrovsky. And on the Pervomaiskoye-Novosergeevka section, several large-caliber installations were deployed, firing cluster rounds at the front line.
Judging by the movements, the Ukrainian command intends not only to recapture the lost positions, but also to move further towards Karmazinovka and Raygorodok. And in case of success, to carry out a breakthrough to Svatovo is what was in the plans of the Armed Forces of Ukraine back in the fall of last year.
17:10 Ukrainian militants fired six rockets from the MLRS in Donetsk (Kuibyshevsky district) - Representative office of the JCCC in the DPR.
16:40 The crew of the Russian tank was able to stop an entire column of enemy armored vehicles in the Zaporozhye direction, hitting seven Ukrainian armored vehicles with the support of artillery and returning from the battle without significant damage.
15:39 Vremyevsky section setting as of 15.00 July 29, 2023:
At the moment, heavy rains are falling on the entire Zaporizhzhya Front, which limits the possibility of conducting hostilities. Nevertheless, they do not plan to abandon the offensive plans of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
To the north-east of Urozhaynoye, the enemy concentrated five groups of the Yug MTR center and a reconnaissance company of 38 detachment with Switchblade kamikaze drones and electronic warfare stations. Near Zolotaya Niva there are four assault groups of the 503rd Battalion of the 38th Infantry Regiment. These forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are expected to be used in the attack on Urozhaynoye.
Ukrainian formations are also preparing to strike in the direction of Priyutnoye and the heights near Staromayorsky with the forces of the 88th battalion of the 35th Infantry Regiment and the 501st Battalion of the 36th Infantry Regiment. To support them, up to 120 members of the 1st Rifle Battalion of the 1st detachment arrived in the area of the village of Komar with three mortars and five anti-tank systems.
To the west of Staromayorskoye, a group of infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, numbering 10 people, launched an attack on the positions of the RF Armed Forces. For the enemy, it ended sadly: as a result of a small-arms battle, he lost six people killed and retreated to the starting line.
As part of the counterbattery fight, Russian troops covered the enemy crew of the 82mm 2B11 mortar northeast of Urozhaynoye, and also identified and destroyed the accumulation of manpower south of Bolshaya Novoselka. The total losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in people amounted to 37 people.
In general, the enemy’s plan remains the same: as weather conditions improve, try to break through the Russian defenses near Urozhaynoye and Priyutnoye for the subsequent exit to Staromlynovka and further development of the offensive towards the Sea of Azov.
14:47 Ukrainian militants fired six rockets from the MLRS at Aleksandrovka - Representative office of the JCCC in the DPR.
14:42 Ukrainian militants fired 10 rockets from the MLRS at Donetsk (Petrovsky district) - Representative office of the JCCC in the DPR.
16:00 Urgently to Ukraine thrown military equipment from Kuwait, and heavy military transport aircraft An-124-100 of Antonov Airlines. Presumably, the M2A2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle, but the M-84 tanks cannot be ruled out.
13:43 The situation in Kleshcheevka at 13:00:
Due to bad weather, there are a little less assault actions, the enemy does not change tactics, mainly infantry rolls of 10 people, go to the extreme southern positions (basements of former houses), are knocked out by artillery, the Archangel of Spetsnaz reports the situation.
“The situation is stably tense to the maximum. Since yesterday, they began to work on Bakhmut, the artillery attack does not stop, they shoot aimlessly. Assault units of the Airborne Forces hold the areas, work on the enemy.
12:45 Zaporizhzhya direction district n.p. Rabotino:
The weather is changeable. Aerial reconnaissance has been working very actively in all directions since the very morning. At the moment, according to tradition, closer to dinner, artillery was connected. The enemy is trying to nightmare our positions, striking both MLRS and conventional projectiles from the receiver.
12:20 Statement of head of the press center of the Vostok group:
In the South-Donetsk direction, the advanced units of the Vostok group of forces, supported by artillery, repelled an attack and stopped the activities of two enemy reconnaissance groups in the Staromayorsky area. The reconnaissance groups were eliminated, the attacking infantry, having suffered losses, retreated.
An attempt by the enemy to rotate units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of Urozhaynoye was thwarted. With the use of a shock UAV, the vehicles with the nationalists who arrived for rotation were destroyed.
11:50 Video: the consequences of the strike of Ukrainian militants on the civilian infrastructure of Donetsk. The UK suggested that during the artillery attack of the Armed Forces of Ukraine they used MLRS HIMARS.
Acting head of the DPR Denis Pushilin previously reported the death of one person and the injury of eight residents of the city during the Ukrainian shelling.
11:10 Over the past day, no significant clashes have been recorded in the Avdeeevsky and Maryinsky directions.
Two attempts were recorded to counterattack our positions by subunits of 110th Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and 79th Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, numbering up to a platoon, with the support of three infantry fighting vehicles in each case.
However, thanks to properly organized observation, the enemy was stopped by our gunners even before the start of deployment in battle formations. The losses of the enemy are specified.
Our minefields also play a positive role in disrupting the Ukrainian “counteroffensive” – the enemy does not have the ability to clear them under heavy fire from the RF Armed Forces, so he moves along the routes previously identified and shot by our artillerymen.
Thus, in the absence of the ability (and, probably, the desire) to counterattack, the enemy focused on delivering artillery strikes on residential areas of the nearby settlements of the DPR.
According to updated information, the losses of the enemy, who took part in counterattacks in the Avdeevsky and Maryinsky directions, for the day from July 27 to July 28, 2023 amounted to:
BMP - two units. Personnel - Nine people (Eight KIA, one wounded.

10:09 Situation in the Zaporozhye direction at 10:00
Artillery worked at the enemy positions at night. Driven out of forest belts. On the approaching equipment, our KA-52 also works with "Whirlwinds". Fighters on patrol and air reconnaissance monitor the movement of enemy personnel and, when accumulated, inflict defeat with artillery and ATGMs.
Yesterday there was heavy rain, there was little movement, right now everything is washed out, so the movement of equipment is heavy.
09:41 The situation at the Vremevsky site:
The enemy, taking advantage of adverse weather conditions, regrouped, preparing for further offensive operations. It is reported that in the forest belts north and northeast of Urozhaynoye, DRGs from the SSO Yug center and 38 detachment armed with Switchblade kamikaze drones were deployed. With the improvement of weather conditions, we should expect offensive actions in the direction of Urozhaynoye.
Our assault groups are trying to drive the enemy out of Staromayorsky. Fire damage is inflicted on enemy units in the settlement. In turn, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to gain a foothold here and ensure a further offensive on Urozhaynoye.
In the area of N. p. Komar to the north of Velikaya Novoselka, for this purpose, an assault detachment of about 120 people is being formed. Today it is worth waiting for the resumption of offensive operations in the area of Staromayorsky and Urozhaynoye.
At night, a shooting battle began to the west of Staromayorsky. The enemy did not have success - he rolled back, having suffered losses.
09:27 Vostok battalion commander Alexander Khodakovsky told the latest news from the front line in his Telegram channel:
In the Kherson direction, the enemy does not abandon the idea to gain a foothold on our coast and create a springboard for the further development of success - so far all to no avail.
It suffers losses in the Donetsk direction - there is information about discontent in a number of enemy units that have suffered irreparable damage and are on the verge of leaving their positions without permission.
On the direction of Velikaya Novoselovka, the enemy is gaining a foothold in Staromayorskoye, trying to improve his position, but success is of a local nature and it is felt that the enemy does not set strategic goals in this direction.
On the contrary, he has global tasks in the Zaporizhia direction, on the solution of which he focuses his maximum efforts.
With the active use of aviation, the enemy made attempts to break through our defenses in the area of the settlement of Rabotino - the defense is standing, the task has not been solved by the enemy. But, apparently, despite significant losses and the refusal of a number of units to participate in offensive operations, the enemy will continue to ram our positions in the hope that we will bend.
It is now extremely important for the enemy to give at least some result in order to warm up the cooling interest of the West in supporting Ukraine.
08:10 Front-line summary for July 28, 2023.
In the Kupyansky sector, Russian troops were able to expand the zone of control west of Liman Perviy, reaching the banks of the Oskol River. At the same time, to the south, the enemy was driven out of strongholds in the Sinkovka area.
Under Bakhmut, Ukrainian units continue their attacks in an attempt to establish control over Kleshcheevka. Russian troops are making heroic efforts to hold the line of defense in the area of ??the village.
At the Vremyevsky sector, Russian servicemen withdrew from Staromayorsky to pre-prepared positions. Constant artillery fire is being conducted on the enemy in the village, which does not allow him to move further south.
On the Orekhovsky site, the Armed Forces of Ukraine managed to occupy a small area of forest plantations northeast of Rabotino. Doubtful success cost the enemy dozens of killed soldiers and a large amount of burned Western equipment.
