19:00 Scouts of the Dnepr group of troops of the Russian Armed Forces struck MiG-29 of the Ukrainian Air Force at the Krivoy Rog airfield Dolgintsevo.
For destruction, a special long-flying loitering munition was used.
18:47 Advisor to the Head of the DPR Yan Gagin showed captured Polish machine gun confiscated from liquidated foreign mercenaries in the South Donetsk direction.
18:37 Explosions are reported in the border areas of the Sumy region - the Russian Armed Forces are striking the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

18:30 What is known about the situation in Kleshcheevka at the moment: analysis Military chronicle:
Active battles for the village have been going on for a long time, and the situation in this area is constantly changing. The fighting for the village went parallel to the assault on Artyomovsk and continues to this day.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine in this area are making attempts to push through the defenses of the Russian Armed Forces and regain the positions lost last spring, but it is currently impossible to do this with the forces that the Ukrainian army had left after the loss of Artyomovsk. An attempt to break through a corridor to Kleshcheevka in parallel with the beginning of the offensive in Zaporozhye also led to nothing.
Ukrainian troops in this area operate in a limited area - approximately 10 square kms - however, we are not talking about full control of this territory: in this area the Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to move people and military equipment, which is under constant fire from the artillery of the Russian Armed Forces.
The main problem in this area is the terrain. Due to the strong altitude difference, Ukrainian troops are forced to first climb the mountain and then descend to the low-lying village. In case of retreat, this maneuver has to be done again, which is a very difficult task for a unit with wounded and without military equipment and leads to additional losses.
According to the Military Chronicle, the Ukrainian Armed Forces sent approximately two companies - about 200 people - to storm the village. After battles and artillery attack from the artillery of the Russian Armed Forces, Ukrainian troops lost half of the assault groups: at the moment there are from 50 to 75 people in the southwestern part of Kleshcheevka.
There is no talk of fully holding the village, since the entire Kleshcheevka was destroyed and there were no entire buildings left in the village; it is difficult to organize a full-fledged line of defense in this area. In addition, reports about the withdrawal of Russian troops from the village are not confirmed - units of the Russian Armed Forces are in pre-prepared positions in the northern part of Kleshcheevka.
Russian artillery and aviation continue to attack the Armed Forces of Ukraine; the transfer of Ukrainian reinforcements, not to mention the development of an attack, is currently impossible.
18:11 Kherson direction: landings in the island zone of the Dnieper. Situation as of 18.00 September 19, 2023
Despite statements from various resources about attempts to gain a foothold on the left bank, the enemy actually controls a small bridgehead in the island zone of the Dnieper.
Several sabotage and reconnaissance groups of the 131st reconnaissance battalion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were transferred to Kozatsky Island - now the northern part of the island is under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Mortar crews cover the forward detachments with fire. At the same time, at night, Ukrainian formations tried to rotate. From Ol'govka the command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces wanted to send the DRG by boat, but it was destroyed by artillery.
Similarly, assault troops from the Normandy tactical group landed on the left bank of the Dnieper north of Podstepnoye, where they began setting up observation posts.
There are no signs of preparation for an offensive at the moment; Ukrainian formations are conducting reconnaissance, simultaneously artillery attack the forward lines of the Russian Armed Forces with artillery and mortars.
However, a large concentration of manpower was noticed in Davydov Brod, and a large column of military equipment, including light armored ones, arrived from Krivoy Rog to Snigirevka. The choice of mobile vehicles is not accidental in the context of a possible operation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the left bank of the Dnieper.
Small armored fighting vehicles will be able to move on soft ground. And in the vicinity of Kherson, pontoon-bridge units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been operating for a long time, so the Ukrainian formations are preparing a bridgehead and waiting for the most convenient moment to strike.
18:00 Zaporozhye Front, Verbovoye, Front Bird reports:
“We beat off three attacks. The enemy tried and is trying to wedge into our defenses, thereby entering the western outskirts of the village. Verbovoe.
Receives appropriate rebuff. The equipment is being burned on the approaches, but something manages to drive up to remove the direct shot and work it out.
It was very hot in the morning. By lunchtime the artillery had died down and there was less movement. Only evacuation vehicles drive without stopping, either from us or from the enemy.”

15:29 Vrem'evsky section: retreat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces from Novomayorsky and strikes by the Russian Armed Forces. Situation as of 15.00 September 19, 2023
At the Vrem'evsky sector, the Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to regroup and rotate personnel to resume the assault on the positions of the Russian Armed Forces.
Russian troops are actively striking enemy strongholds and other identified targets: concentrations of personnel of the 37th and 38th Ukrainian Naval Infantry Brigades were hit in Shakhtersk and Novoukrainka. During the counterbattery battle near Makarovka, the 122mm D-30 howitzer and the Polish Krab self-propelled guns were destroyed.
At the same time, information is being received about the retreat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces from the northwestern outskirts of Novomayorsky. For several weeks they tried to cling to the development of the settlement, but the soldiers of the 40th Guards Naval Infantry Brigade remained stable in defense and repelled all attacks.
Also in the forest belt west of Staromayorsky, forces of the 253rd battalion of the 129th TRO brigade, transferred from the direction of Makarovka, were seen. The introduction of reserves into battle indirectly confirms the losses of the 1st Brigade rifle battalion that was previously operating there.
14:02 The Russian Aerospace Forces launched a powerful airstrike on Kupyansk.
13:35 Soledar direction: concentration of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the flanks of Bakhmut. Situation as of 13.00 September 19, 2023:
While the main attention of all media has shifted to the zone of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, heavy fighting continues in several areas near Bakhmut. Despite the statements of some Ukrainian sources about the capture of the village of Kleshcheevka, as well as the complete destruction of several brigades of the Russian Armed Forces, including the 72nd Motorized Rifle Brigade, in reality this is not the case.
Fighting in the village continues, and most of it is in the gray zone. Yesterday, two assault groups of the 28th Mechanized Brigade again attacked the positions, trying to break through to the railway, but to no avail.
At the same time, a concentration of new assault units is noted west of Kleshcheevka, as well as south of Andreevka. Three detachments of the 3rd Assault Brigade have taken up positions and are preparing for a new attack.
Similar preparations are observed in the north near the Berkhovskoye reservoir. The other day, tank units of the 17th Brigade arrived in Bogdanovka, which had been being re-equipped for several months.
Judging by the simultaneous activation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the offensive on the flanks of Bakhmut will be coordinated in time, and the goal is to cover the city from both sides and cut off the supply routes of the Russian Armed Forces group in order to force them to resign.
13:27 The Ukrainian Armed Forces launched a massive attack on the village of Kairo in the Kherson region - one person was killed, nine were injured. This was reported by the regional government.
13:00 Russian forces destroyed 10 units of Ukrainian Armed Forces equipment while repelling attacks near Rabotin. This was announced by the chairman of the “We are together with Russia” movement Vladimir Rogov.
According to him, after the destruction of the armored vehicles of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the Ukrainian army soldiers retreated into forest belts, where Russian multiple launch rocket systems and artillery fired at them.
12:27 Explosions are reported in the Sumy region.
11:48 Molochansk in Zaporozhye region under fire from militants of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Today at 9:20 the Nazis launched a rocket attack on the city of Molochansk.
The former administration building on Pedenko Street was destroyed, and garages on Fruktovaya Street were destroyed. There were no reports of casualties.
11:31 Orekhovsky section situation as of 11.00 September 19, 2023:
In the Orekhovsky sector, fighting continues at Verbovoy. The intensity of enemy attacks has decreased, but in the coming days the offensive will resume with renewed vigor as part of Zelensky’s visit to the United States.
Now reserves are being moved to the front line to conduct a new assault. To the west of Verbovoy, units of the 71st ebr arrived to make up for losses, and in the area of Chubenkova Balka three combined groups of the 82nd Airborne Brigade and 46th Brigade are on standby.
The losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are growing. Because of this, an unidentified connection was transferred from the Sumy region. In addition, another assault battalion took up positions in Veselyanka. Also northeast of Novopokrovka, the appearance of the 12th separate tank battalion was noted.
At the same time, new units may arrive within a few days. Since September 15, a convoy of military equipment in the amount of 132 units passed through Dnepropetrovsk, including 56 Kirpi armored fighting vehicles, 20 Hummer armored fighting vehicles, ten VAB armored fighting vehicles, five Mastiff armored fighting vehicles, two BTR-70 armored personnel carriers, two Husky armored fighting vehicles, one MLRS RM-70 Vampire, 11 Grad MLRS and about 3,300 people.
11:30 Personnel combat work of Russian attack helicopters Ka-52 “Alligator” in the Zaporozhye direction of the front.
11:17 Situation in the South Donetsk direction:
In the Vrem'evsky sector, the enemy completed the withdrawal of units from the northwestern outskirts of Novomayorsky; our artillery made this process a little more exciting for him. Otherwise, the Novomayorskoye-Novodonetskoye section is still quiet. If the Ukrainian Armed Forces are planning to try to rush in this direction one more time, then we should expect an intensification of artillery attack on its part; in the last two days it has practically disappeared.
This is indirectly evidenced by the arrival of enemy reserves in the western regions of the Donetsk region. He can use them both here and for attempts to break into the defensive line of Priyutnoye-Zavetnye Zhelaniye-Staromlynovka.
In the Staromayorsky area, the appearance of not only the 127th Brigade, but also their colleagues from the 129th Brigade was noted. We associate this with an attempt to replace the 1st rifle battalion of the 1st Tank Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which, in attempts to push our units back from the southwestern border of the village, also lost its combat capability.
In the Ugledarsky sector, our artillery processed Ugledar, Vodyanoye and Novomikhailovka, the enemy responded with cassettes along the front edge. Routine.
