Ukraine/Russland/NATO – der Sammler am 10. Juli 2022

Veröffentlicht am von

Im andauernden russischen Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine bleibt die Artillerie auf beiden Seiten die derzeit wichtigste Waffe. Der Sammler am 10. Juli 2022:

• Das britische Intel Update:

Russian artillery continues to strike the Sloviansk area of the Donbas from around Izium to the north and near Lysychansk to the east. Russian forces have likely made some further small territorial advances around Popasna.
Fires from Izium continue to focus along the axis of the E40 main road. Control of the E40, which links Donetsk to Kharkiv, is likely to be an important objective for Russia as it attempts to advance through Donetsk Oblast.

• Zum Thema Artillerie und Präzisionsmunition ein Twitter-Thread von Phillips O’Brien, Professor of Strategic Studies an  der University of St. Andrews in Schottland:

Sunday update, a discussion of range/accuracy versus mass. There is a noticeable change in the last 2 weeks in the ranged war (which is the most important in this attritional phase) and that is that Ukraine is now showing the ability to hit back.
If you look at a map of FIRMS data (fires that can be picked up by satellite) there is a significant change since the beginning of June. Then, most of the fire was very close to the front line, and crucially mostly where the Russians were trying to advance. (…)
For instance the town of Shakhtarsk, basically safe, behind the lines for Russian forces in June, now the seen of heavy fires. Which matches with reports of Russian depots, which had been built up in the supposedly safe area, now being hit by Ukr HIMARS.
Matches up to other claims of the Ukr now trying to systematically destroy Russian depots throughout the area that use to be safe and are now vulnerable.
The situation in Kherson oblast is similar. In early June overwhelmingly Russian fire on Ukrainian front line (southeast of Mykolaiv) positions. Now thats still there, but also Ukr fire behind Russian lines (in and around Kherson city). Same pattern, Mass Russian tactical fire…

Operational update regarding the #russian_invasion as of 18:00 on July 10, 2022
The one hundred thirty-seventh (137) day of the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people to a russian military invasion continues.
russian occupiers cynically continue to launch rocket attacks on civilian targets, killing civilians. We urge you not to ignore air warning signals, wherever you are on the territory of Ukraine.
The situation has not undergone significant changes in the Volyn and Polissya directions.
In the Siverskyi direction, the enemy used barrel and jet artillery to shell the areas of the settlements of Bachivsk, Volfyne, Myropillya, Volodymyrivka, Oleksiivka, and Vovkivka in the Sumy oblast, and Senkivka and Mykolaivka in the Chernihiv oblast. In addition, in the Vovkivka and Volfyne regions, enemy assault and army aircraft struck.
In the Kharkiv direction, the enemy used tanks, barrel and rocket artillery to bombard Kharkiv and settlements in the Kharkiv oblast to the north, east and south of this city.
The enemy launched airstrikes near Verkhniy Saltov, Petrivka, and Mospanove.
In the Slovyansk direction, the enemy carried out fire damage in the areas of the settlements of Dolyna, Dibrovne, Mazanivka, Bohorodichne, Adamivka, Andriivka, Barvinkove, Virnopillya, Velyka Komyshuvakha, Krasnopillya, Nova Dmytrivka, Khrestyshche, Novopavlivka, Nikopol, Chervone, and Sulihivka. It used aviation to carry out a strike near Bohorodychne.
Thanks to the skilful actions of the Ukrainian soldiers, the occupiers clearly failed the combat reconnaissance in the direction of Mazanivka and retreated with losses.
In the direction of Bakhmut, the enemy shelled the areas of Kurdyumivka, Luhanske, Berestove, Vyimka, Ivano-Daryivka, Shumy and Pereizne settlements with barrel and rocket artillery.
On the Avdiyivka, Kurakhivka, Novopavlivka, and Zaporizhzhia directions along the contact line, mutual shelling continues with the use of mortars, tanks, barrel and rocket artillery.
The enemy launched airstrikes near Avdiivka and Volodymyrivka. It tried to improve the tactical position in the area of Novoselivka Druha by means of assaults, but was unsuccessful and withdrew.
In the Southern Buh direction, the enemy is trying to prevent the advancement of units of the Defense Forces deep into the temporarily occupied territory with the available means of fire damage.
In readiness for launching missile strikes on objects on the territory of Ukraine, the enemy keeps two carriers of high-precision weapons in the sea.
russian occupiers, in order to somehow justify their destruction of civilian objects on the territory of Ukraine, continue to lie about the alleged location of military units in schools, hospitals and apartment buildings
We urge you to trust information only from verified sources and not to spread russian fakes and disinformation.
