⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Map of Military Operations and the Situation on the Fronts on the evening of 15 Dec 2022; pub. 0:05⚡️

Today is a day of special significance for our country, especially now - the day of fallen journalists. There is no doubt that our war correspondents are the best in the world. And there is plenty of evidence, as in the 90s in #Chechnya, in the 10s in #Syria and, of course, in the vast expanses of the SMO. It's important to understand that a military correspondent is not about "getting behind the tape to take pictures", it's about arrivals, injuries and rarely, but death. One should not pay attention to the long absence of losses on the information front of the struggle for truth, it is compensated by exceptional professionalism of our journalists.

⚔️ The Situation on the Fronts in the outgoing Day

♦️
#Svatovo - #Kremennaya Direction:

The AFU militants attacked in the direction of #Sophiyevka #LPR, but the Russian army, supported by army aviation and heavy flamethrower systems, destroyed the enemy group. The Ukrainian army also launched several counterattacks in the areas of #Ploshchanka, #Golikovo and #Kremennaya #LPR, but all Nazi attacks were stopped by army aviation strikes.

♦️#Artemovsk (#Bahmut) Direction:

"The orchestrators are advancing on the eastern outskirts of #Artemovsk. Fighting is taking place in the industrial zone and on the outskirts of the city. Fighting continues in the town itself on Fyodor Maksimenko Street and in Pervomaysky Lane. Also, units of the Wagner PMC are breaking through the development in #Opytnoye. In addition, the clearing of #Yakovlevka, which was liberated a week ago, has been completed, opening another route to #Soledar.

♦️#Ugledar Direction:

The AFU moved reserves to #Dobrovolye #DPR, but they were destroyed by Russian army strikes. Also, two Ukrainian SRGs were destroyed near #Pavlovka.

💥 The Russian Aerospace Forces in the Yablonovka region of the DPR shot down an Ukrainian MiG-29, as well as an enemy Mi-8 in the #Nikolaevka region of the #DPR.

💡 The frantic battles of the summer of 2014 were remembered by the residents of #Donbass, as was the landmark event of that period - the battle for #Shakhtyorsk. The city became the scene of a fierce battle between the #Donetsk militia and Ukrainian paratroopers. What exactly happened in the city is described in our story.
