Over the past 24 hours Representative officereportedabout 43 facts of firing from the AFU. Information was received about the injury of two civilians in the Petrovsky district of Donetsk and the Chervonogvardeysky district of Makeyevka.
Four residential buildings were damaged in the Kuibyshevsky district of Donetsk, the Nikitovsky district of Gorlovka and the Chervonogvardeysky district of Makeyevka, as well as three civil infrastructure facilities.
Areas of five settlements of the Republic were under enemy fire: Gorlovka (Tsentralno-Gorodskoy, Nikitovsky districts), Yasinovatsky district, the capital city of Donetsk (Kuibyshevsky, Kirovsky, Kievsky, Petrovsky districts), Makeevka (Chervonogvardeysky, Kirovsky districts), Elenovka.

21:50 Artillery of the 4th Brigade continues to destroy Ukrainian positions in the Bakhmut direction -video.
21:25 South-west of the village of Rabotino and along the forest belts are coming fierce battles.
20:45 Here come the bright ones personnel strike by the Russian Armed Forces on the Khar'kov armored plant last Saturday. Judging by the recording, the rocket hit the building of one of the production workshops and exploded inside.
The company has been repairing armored vehicles since the spring of 2022. It was the target of attacks more than once, but each time the damage was insignificant, after which the plant resumed operation. Now, although the workshop is not completely destroyed, the machinery and equipment located there are clearly out of action.
20:10 That Ukrainian sources issue for a powerful explosion in Sevastopol, is the release of the P-800 Onyx supersonic missile in the direction of the Odessa region. The goal is still unclear, but it will become clear in the near future.
19:30 Vrem'evsky plot: calm at the front and rotation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
Relative calm continues at the Vrem'evsky site. Ukrainian formations are actively rotating formations and making up for losses to resume the offensive.
The withdrawal of forces of the 38th Naval Infantry Brigade from the front line from near Novodonetsk began, which took place in single pickups and vans in order to avoid detection and subsequent fire damage. Ukrainian marines in positions in forest belts are replaced by personnel of the 58th Motorized Infantry Brigade.
From the Priyutny area, the Armed Forces of Ukraine were also taken to the rear for restoration of units of the 115th battalion of the 110th TrO Brigade. They transferred their positions to the 249th rifle battalion of the 127th Territorial Defense Brigade.
At Staromayorsky, Ukrainian formations tried to secretly enter the forward Russian positions with two reconnaissance groups totaling 11 people. After discovery and an artillery attack, they retreated northward.
Russian troops continue to strike at enemy strongholds and concentrations of manpower and equipment. Two SUVs of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were destroyed under Urozhaynye, and to the south of Volny Pole the Russian Armed Forces disabled the 122mm 2S1 Gvozdika self-propelled gun.
19:00 Soledarskoe direction: Andreevka in the “gray zone” and the concentration of Ukrainian Armed Forces on the flanks
South of Bakhmut, the tense situation continues on the Kleshcheevka-Ozaryanovka line, although the intensity of the clashes has decreased somewhat compared to last week.
The settlement of Andreevka actually does not exist - it is a pile of ruins. Although Ukrainian resources last week posted footage from the supposedly captured village, in reality they left it immediately after taking the photo.
However, Russian troops still launched an attack with the goal of “recapturing” Andreevka. However, there was simply nowhere to gain a foothold there, and under artillery fire the fighters retreated to their starting point. At the moment, military personnel of the Russian Armed Forces occupy positions east of the railway, and the ruins of the village are in the “gray zone”.
At the same time, the enemy continues to concentrate forces both near Kleshcheevka and east of Soledar near Orekhovo-Vasilievka. The goal of the Ukrainian Armed Forces remains the same - to try in the future to cover the city from two sides and significantly complicate the position of the Russian troops located there.
18:30 Telegram channel “Fisherman” – Massive strike on objects on the territory of Ukraine:
Last night, the Russian Armed Forces carried out strikes on targets in different parts of the country. This is perhaps the first massive raid in recent times - over the past few months, Russian troops have usually limited themselves to targeted attacks on specific targets.
It is significant that for the first time since spring, Ukrenergo reported damage to energy infrastructure and problems with electricity in five regions.
In Rovno, local authorities announced damage to a certain “energy facility.” Reports about the destruction of a thermal power plant in the city are not true - there is simply no thermal power plant or thermal power plant in the city.
Much more likely is damage to distribution substation equipment or overhead lines, causing power outages. One of the car repair shops was also damaged.
Several explosions occurred in Kyiv. Judging by photographs from open sources, the “fall of debris” was recorded near the large industrial zone of the Kyiv Radio Plant, so with a high probability this enterprise was the target of the strike.
In Khar'kov, explosions occurred in the Slobodsky district, and water supply was partially lost in the city. It is unknown what exactly was the target of the raid, but local authorities reported damage to the main water pipeline.
In Cherkassy, the Central Hotel was hit by a direct hit, the building was partially destroyed. In regions of Ukraine remote from the front line, hotels are still used as places to accommodate mercenaries and foreign personnel - there is a good chance that this was the case in Cherkassy.
In addition, explosions were recorded in the Lviv and Rovno regions. In Drohobych, Lviv region, an unnamed industrial facility and a warehouse were damaged, and a fire started at both facilities.
17:55 Mortarmen of the Novorossiysk Airborne Forces unit inflicted fire damage to Ukrainian Armed Forces personnel in the Zaporozhye direction
The UAV operators discovered a target - a concentration of enemy infantry. The coordinates of the enemy fortification were immediately transferred to the mortar crew of the Novorossiysk paratroopers for striking.
“The distance allowed us to inflict fire damage,” says the crew commander with the call sign “Elis.” In a matter of minutes, the enemy personnel were destroyed by fire from a 120mm mortar.
17:25 Crews of combat helicopters of the Russian Aerospace Forces are heading to the front line -video.
16:45 Meanwhile, Ukraine’s successes on the battlefield -video.

13:50 Telegram channel “Two majors“: after a strike in the Cherkasy region, where one of the hotels was cleared of foreign specialists
In the village of Orshanets near Cherkassy there is a training center based on the border service training. Entry into the village itself is closed to everyone. Any visitors are checked by military police at checkpoints and turned away (unless they are going to a funeral).
Natsiks were trained there every day by foreign specialists, about which we informed whoever should. Day and night at the training ground, in addition to shooting, preparations were underway for work with large-caliber guns and drones.
Residents of the region noted an increase in the number of foreign instructors and mercenaries even on the eve of the so-called “counteroffensive.”
Recently, the situation has not changed, no reduction in their number has been observed, systematic meat preparation has been going on.
Now to the specifics:
According to local reports, the attack hit the Central Hotel and a restaurant with the same name. They tried not to house or serve civilians there, due to the disclosure of the presence of foreign representatives.
There were always a lot of new cars with black license plates parked near the hotel.
After the strike, the area was cordoned off for three blocks; no one was even allowed to work within this perimeter (which, by the way, may indicate the preparation of an information provocation).
When leaving this zone, everything is checked, including phones with “forbidden” content.
According to preliminary information, the number of KIAs may be about three dozen. About 20 people are presumably under the rubble, or have decomposed into molecules.
There was no attack on the training ground in Orshanets. The military instructors who conducted training on it lived and ate at the Central Hotel in Cherkassy. They were delivered to Orshanets by transport, it’s not far away.

On the Zaporozhye Front they report that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have reduced the intensity of attacks at Rabotino and Verbovoy compared to the previous day - the losses of the day before yesterday could have had an impact. Our fighters point out the strange behavior of some enemy groups on the battlefield: perhaps the enemy command is introducing poorly trained units into battle.
In the Kherson direction, the Russian Armed Forces carried out air strikes on the enemy shore by nightfall. In the Kizomys area, our troops covered with incendiary ammunition the area in which the enemy's special forces and artillery were detected.
In the Vrem'evsky direction there is a transfer of enemy forces, small groups of Ukrainian Armed Forces infantry are conducting reconnaissance in force. Footage from a Russian drone has appeared online: the area of Novodonetsky-Novomayorsky is littered with the corpses of enemies, which no one is trying to pick up.
On the southern flank of Artemovsk (Bakhmut) there are battles near Kleshcheevka and Adreevka.

08:09 Frontline summary for the morning of 09/21/2023
In the Zaporozhye direction, the Ukrainian Armed Forces, with the support of artillery, tried to advance to Novoprokopovka and Verbovoy. But not so intense anymore. The reason is the counterattacks of the Russian Armed Forces on the flanks that took place in previous days. They forced the Ukrainian command to seriously worry about defense in these areas. Now there is a pause. The positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the settlements of Novodanilovka, Rabotino and Malaya Tokmachka are under fire. Russian ones are in Tokmak, Kopany, Il'chenkovo and Novopokrovka.In the Ugledarsky sector, the Ukrainian Armed Forces, after artillery barrage, attacked Priyutnoye from the north. No promotion.
