❗️ 🇷🇺🇺🇦 Donetsk direction: what to expect after the Victory
about the situation as of 15:00, February 21, 2024

🔻However, seizing control of the village of Pobeda doesn't just offer opportunities to cut off the logistics of the Ukrainian group in Vuhledar.

▪️ In the short term, we can anticipate the enemy's attempt to reclaim lost positions, as the village is crucial not only for defensive purposes but also for launching further attacks.

▪️ The personnel of the 33rd Mechanized Brigade have retreated westward to the plantings near the village. Their abundance and strategic placement on the hill will enable the AFU to withstand the assault. Nevertheless, Russian troops can now advance not only towards Kostyantynivka but also to Georgievka from the south along the H15 highway.

▪️ Georgievka itself is situated in a lowland near a reservoir, making the positions there vulnerable to gunfire. The H15 road runs along a hill, the control of which would significantly facilitate the assault on Georgievka, where two assault groups of the 46th Airmobile Brigade arrived recently.

🔻While there have been no significant changes in the front line in Georgievka so far, there is some rather positive news from the north near Krasnohorivka: the Russian Armed Forces have established a foothold on the southern outskirts of the settlement.

▪️ Although there is no confirmation of this yet, if it is indeed true, then it is highly likely that Russian fighters have advanced along Geologichnaya Street towards the gas station.

▪️ However, quick success should not be expected in this area. Krasnohorivka is located on a hill that is intersected by a railway. Additionally, there are several objects in the central part that the AFU utilize as fortified areas, such as a fireproof plant.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Offensive West of Donetsk: Liberation of Nevelskoy
Situation as of 18:00, March 12, 2024

Today, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced the liberation of Nevelskoye village to the west of Donetsk. As of now, there are no photos or video materials from the settlement, but they will certainly be shared once they are secured at the border.

🔻If the information is confirmed, it will confidently indicate that Russian troops have achieved significant tactical success, thanks to Nevelskoy's strategic geographical position.

▪️ The village and its surroundings sit at an altitude of over 200 meters, making it the highest point on the line between Krasnohorivka and Pervomaisky. Controlling Nevelskoy enhances the assault on both of these settlements.

▪️ Nevelskoye has been used by Ukrainian forces to shell Donetsk and its suburbs for years due to its advantageous location. Advancing in this area will, at the very least, reduce attacks on civilians.

❗️However, vigilance must be maintained. The AFU headquarters also recognize the strategic value of Nevelskoye, so attempts to recapture the village are expected. Moreover, despite the liberation of the settlement, Russian troops still need to navigate through a network of strongholds and natural fortifications, which complicates their westward movement.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Offensive West of Donetsk: Liberation of Vodyanoy
Situation at the end of March 31, 2024

Since the end of 2022, Russian troops have been engaged in fierce battles for Vodyane. Today, the village was successfully liberated by soldiers of the 9th Separate Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade.

The Russian Ministry of Defense has not yet commented on this development. However, online footage clearly shows the DPR flag flying over a house on the western outskirts of the village.

Vodyanoy itself comprises only Gagarin Street, lined with dilapidated buildings on both sides. The offensive in this area faced significant challenges due to the AFU's control over the neighboring village of Pervomaiskoye.

To prevent a counterattack from Ukrainian forces in the south, Russian troops destroyed the bridge between the two settlements. The liberation of Vodyanoy will also intensify pressure on Pervomaisky, complicating the enemy's position there.

❗️Two weeks prior, Russian Armed Forces units had already expanded their control zone in Pervomaisky, nearing the ruins of the Pershotravnevka-35 substation at the village center. However, due to insufficient personnel, determining the exact frontline configuration in the populated area remains a challenge.

🔻Success in this front section has brought Russian military personnel closer to commencing the battle for Netailovo and advancing further west. The primary objective is to push the frontline away from Donetsk as much as possible to safeguard its residents from ongoing enemy attacks.
