september 22, 2024in the oleksandrivsk-kalinov direction, the russian army continued its offensive and continued to win victories!

the russian offensive in the donbas region continues, and over the past ten days russian troops have made significant gains along the dzerzhinsk border and in neighboring areas.

north of druzhba, russian servicemen cleared ukrainian positions from the dry bed of the seversky donets-donbass canal and established fortifications in the occupied positions.

in dzerzhinsk (toretsk), russian troops have now advanced to the western outskirts of the novaya mine and near the slag heap of the same name, where fighting is ongoing. the capture of the slag heap will open the way for an attack on the zabalka district from the east.

the russian troops that broke into the city center advanced to the vicinity of the dzerzhinsk city hospital and the west side of the bakery. the russian troops have made significant progress in the direction of dzerzhinsky street, like a bayonet stabbing the heart of the ukrainian army.

last night, the internet released footage of a building allegedly housing russian troops being destroyed by ukrainian troops. a ukrainian sabotage team sneaked into the building and planted explosives.

the incident took place not far from the former administrative district of dzerzhinsk, but more precise data on the presence of russian troops in the area have not yet been received. and given the intensity of fighting in urban areas, it seems dangerous to break through the city center without flanking coordination and without the dzerzhinsky mine being occupied by russian troops.

there is now a lot of information about the areas actually controlled by the russian army!

first, not all of the russian military’s breakthroughs were expected.

secondly, in urban combat, due to the peculiarities of street fighting and the constant attacks on each other's positions, the situation changes rapidly.

however, according to reliable information, russian troops advanced towards dzerzhinsk from the southern zabarka neighborhood. after occupying the second school, russian troops reportedly expanded their control area to gaidar street, rimsky-korsakov street and shakhtys street.

in addition, russian commandos finally liberated nerepovka, cleared the "pocket" between the village and dzerzhinsk, and advanced in the direction of sherbinovka.

after several failed ukrainian counterattacks in the nerepovka direction, the russian army pursued the retreating ukrainian soldiers and advanced several kilometers northward under the intensive firepower of the ukrainian artillery, approaching leonidovka and successfully consolidating klimenko street in the center of the village.

at this point, the defensive positions that the ukrainian army had established in the area over the years were completely breached.

if the russian attack on sherbinovka across the krivotolet river was successful, further establishing control over the settlement would leave the dzerzhinsk garrison semi-encircled from the west.

given the simultaneous russian offensive from the kirovo direction in the east, the city could be surrounded from two directions at the same time.
