Battlefront update: Significant Russian gains across Donbass.
▪️Bolshaya Novoselka (Map 1): encirclement is looming. On Wednesday, Russian troops advanced 2km to reach Razdolnoye (north of Bolshaya Novoselka), while to its south they advanced 4km from Novodonetskoe. Two pincers around Bolshaya Novoselka have thus been formed. Moreover, today the Russian army marched 5 kilometers along the highway from Shakhterskoye, and reached the outskirts of Bolshaya Novoselka between the pincers.
▪️Kurakhovo (Map 2): a Ukrainian grouping is encircled in the pocket between Dalnee and Uspenovka, Russian troops fighting in the center of Kurakhovo. On Wednesday, Russian military crossed the reservoir and took control of the elevator, and some high-rise buildings in the center of Kurakhovo. At the same time, north of the reservoir, the Russian Army took Berestki and Solntsevka and reached Starye Terny (Map 3).
▪️Toretsk (Map 4): The Russian advance accelerated after Ukraine moved its best troops to Chasov Yar. Advancing in the center of Toretsk, Russian troops have moved beyond the high-rise buildings and entered the northern outskirts, approching the "Toretskaya" mine. Gains were also made in the area of Zabalka, towards the heaps of the "Tsentralnaya" mine. Should the Ukrainian army lose control of either mine, the rest of Toretsk will become undefendable.
▪️Chasov Yar (Map 5): Fighting for the refractory plant in the city center. Since the Ukrainian army lost control over the positions west of Kleshcheevka, the defense of Chasov Yar has been gradually falling apart, despite reinforcements. The main reason is logistics: rotation has become a lot easier for the Russians, who no longer need to worry about enemy drones attacking from the Kleshcheevka area, while for the Ukrainian army the situation is the opposite.
