Today the most interesting events are coming from the direction of Pokrowska
Here the approaching rainy period threatens to turn Ukrainian fields into impenetrable mud, forcing Russians to launch hasty attacks before they run out of time.
Ukrainians utilized these hasty attacks to inflict dense losses on Russian forces and buy adequate time to fortify their main fortress.
The main goal of the Russians in this direction is inactive to scope and get the strategically crucial city of Pokrowsk, as it functions as a key logistics hub for Ukrainian forces in Donetsk.
However, before the Russians launch an assault operation, they must defeat the last city on the defensive lines of Selydowe-Nowohrodivka-Hrodivka to defend their flanks from Ukrainian counterattacks.
The first Russian plan was to capture Selidov in a fast frontal attack, but Russian assault operation rapidly collapsed under the force of continuous Ukrainian counterattacks
As Ukrainians moved additional reinforcements towards the Selydov area, the Russians could not break the Selydov in direct attack and had to change tactics.
The fresh Russian tactics assumed an attack on Selydov from the north and the beginning of a fresh attack axis from Nowohrodivka.
Unfortunately for the Russians, the Ukrainians counterattacked the Russian winging maneuver, conducting lone tank raids that approached Russian assault groups moving through tree lines and attacked them with shrapnel-storming missiles.
The first uncensored combat material can be found on our Telegram channel via the link in the description.
Moreover, while the Russians initially claimed to control the Marina village, geolocalized recordings rapidly proved otherwise, pointing out that Ukrainian positions in the settlement hold firm against Russian attacks, undermining the full Russian operation flanking at its base.
It should be noted that by the end of October the autumn rainy period will change all fields in the east Ukraine in the mud, virtually preventing fast maneuvers mechanized
This means that the Russians are moving out of time to scope and occupy Selydov before continuing to decision towards Pokrovska.
Understanding this, it becomes clear why the Russians continued multiple attacks on the Navy to complete the flanking operation from the north as shortly as possible.
Ukrainian soldiers operating in the Navy reported that the Russians carried out simultaneous attacks from all 3 sides, making it hard for them to defy due to the fact that the Ukrainians could not concentrate the fire.
Nevertheless, the Russians suffered dense losses as they rushed with large infantry groups through open roads towards the settlement.
Ukrainians made available geolocation movie material depicting nearly 50 dead Russian bodies on 1 road that the Russians did not usage for attacks, but simply to gather their forces in preparation for the attack, showing the effects of meat wave tactics.
Eventually, the meat waves allowed Russians to attack the Ukrainians from all sides, and the Ukrainians decided to retreat their forces from the bag.
However, Ukrainian forces managed to inflict dense losses on the Russians and delayed Russian winging operation by almost 2 weeks.
This gave Selid defenders valuable time to fortify the city and organize defensive positions against the fresh threat.
Knowing that they had only a fewer weeks to come in the mud season, Russian commanders ordered direct and multiple attacks on the northern Selid flank.
A origin limiting advancement was the fact that the Russians could only decision forward in areas from which the Ukrainians withdrew, so as shortly as the Russians approached the edge of the city, they were stopped by fierce resistance.
Moreover, 1 of the most crucial strongholds to cover There's a heap in the north.
This heap is the largest in the area, has an area of over 1 km2 and rises over 50 meters above the area
Ukrainians utilized elevated positions at the top of the heap to exert large control of fire from drones over northern approaches to the city, targeting Russian attacks.
Geolocation movie material illustrates the frequency of these attacks, as we see 1 Russian armored transporter retreating after an unsuccessful attack while 2 others are already on their way to the next attack.
The movie besides shows that in a hurry 2 Russian armored vehicles collide head-on, stopping both vehicles.
