❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Battle for Chasiv Yar: Clearing the outskirts of Bohdanivka
Situation as of 3:00 PM on April 21, 2024

In the Bakhmut direction, Russian forces continue to expand their control zone on the flanks near Chasiv Yar.

▪️The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed the complete capture of Bohdanivka. According to our information, due to intense fire from the AFU, they abandoned positions in the southwestern part of the village a couple of days ago.

▪️In the eastern outskirts of Chasiv Yar, fierce battles have been raging for weeks in the Canal microdistrict near School No. 77. Seizing the building is currently not possible due to mined terrain and constant counterattacks by the enemy.

▪️South of Chasiv Yar, Russian forces are advancing along the T-0504 highway towards Kostyantynivka. The enemy regularly releases footage of strikes on Russian armored vehicles leaving Krasne.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🖇 Yesterday, the publication The Economist published an interview with the Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Forces of the AFU, Oleksandr Pavliuk, who shared a revelation: it turns out that the loss of Chasiv Yar "will not be decisive," because it is "just an ordinary urban settlement."

We find it hard to believe that the Ukrainian general may not know the significance of Chasiv Yar, at least from the point of view of an important fortified defense hub on the approaches to Kostyantynivka and the Slavyansk-Kramatorsk metro area. Therefore, such words from his mouth speak of two things:

▪️Through the mouths of official figures in the so-called Ukraine, there is a gradual preparation of public opinion for the withdrawal of the AFU from the city, which indirectly illustrates the position of the opponent in the sector. The Kyiv regime resorted to similar tactics just before the withdrawal from Bakhmut or Avdiivka.

▪️At the same time, the theses about the "insignificance of the loss of territories" from a media point of view look absolutely disastrous. But if they are publicly voiced by representatives of the AFU command, this indicates serious problems of the opponent with information support of hostilities.

The latter, by the way, are indeed increasingly visible to the naked eye. In fact, the Ukrainian "media", which was still considered the trump card of the Kyiv regime in 2022, is literally turning from a carriage into a pumpkin before our eyes.
