Today, the most interesting developments come from the Toretsk direction.

Here, Russians attempted to continue their spearhead offensive in Niu-York but were fiercely countered by Ukrainian fire from all sides.

Firstly, Russians are trying to deepen their breakthrough and drive a wedge in the Ukrainian lines. After that, Russians will try to link up with their offensive efforts in Pivnichne to the north and outflank Ukrainian defenses to the west. Russians will prioritize a northern advance, however, as they can then support their current advance toward Toretsk, a crucial Ukrainian fortress city and logistics hub in the region.

Before they can do this, Russians must first take complete control over the fortified Ukrainian settlement of Niu-York. Russians had intensely bombed Ukrainian fortifications here beforehand but lost their momentum as the strength of Ukrainian defenses only increased the deeper they advanced.

Now, Russians continue to bomb the industrial zone with FAB glide bombs, as this is the central defensive position still entirely under Ukrainian control, where manpower and ammunition are stored, and the defense is coordinated. Russian drone detachments are also active here, dropping grenades on Ukrainian positions and providing overwatch for Russian assault groups.

Despite intense Russian bombing, Russian forces have not been able to make any advancements since last week for multiple reasons. The first being is that Ukrainians constantly target these Russian assault groups with FPV drones and drone-dropped grenades of their own. Geolocated footage shows a Ukrainian FPV drone hitting a building a Russian assault group was sheltering in. The footage, taken from an observation drone, also shows that at least one soldier had been wounded, indicating this group had already been hit earlier by Ukrainians and that these soldiers were those that had survived the initial attack.
If you want to get access to the original uncensored combat footage, you can find it on our Telegram channel by using the link in the description.

The second reason becomes clear after Russians released geolocated footage from a Russian FPV drone, showing a hit on a Ukrainian MaxxPro armored vehicle mounted with a 50-millimeter-caliber heavy machine gun. While the footage shows the armored truck was hit from the top and destroyed, the presence of the MaxxPro continues to show how Ukrainians use their positions on top of the hills surrounding Niu-York to fire down and into advancing Russian units.

Geolocated footage also shows that Ukrainians had advanced their area of control toward the south of the settlement. In these cases, Ukrainians don’t have to physically counterattack in order to gain ground, as they can expand their FPV fire control and deny Russian units entry to an area, saving Ukrainian soldiers’ lives.

Despite both sides not posting combat footage due to the high intensity of fighting, both Russian and Ukrainian sources implicate that Russians are losing the fight for the high-rise district in Niu-York. They note that Ukrainian fighters had counterattacked and retaken control over several streets, isolating Russians in and to the apartment complexes.

As you remember, Russians dug a tunnel from Novoselivka to here that was only big enough to move one soldier through at a time, also making it impossible to evacuate their wounded. As such, Russian losses in the high-rise district have quickly mounted. Russians were also unable to properly connect their forces here to the rest of the spearhead, meaning the only thing they could do to continue the fight was pour more men into the one-way deathtrap of the high-rise. It is important to note that while Russians are practically isolated in the apartment complexes, it will still be a tough fight for Ukrainians to push them out. The interconnected rooms, hallways, many windows, stairways, and no possibility of retreat for Russian fighters, will make it an urban combat hell for everyone involved.

In general, Russian forces have committed most of their reserves to the frontline to put pressure on Ukrainians, who have trouble defending against multiple such offensives. Ukrainian analysts note that the Russian high command has done this to undermine international support for Ukraine and force Ukraine into negotiations with Russia.

However, these series of offensives do not come without…

  2. war was all fun and games until fossil fuels became involved… now, war anywhere brings more global warming everywhere. we gotta learn to get along with each other or the planet is gonna kick us out. ☮️❤️🌏🌍🌎

  3. 4.7 million conscripts, is that accurate? I thought the Ukrainian military had around 1 – 1.2 million personel. If a further 4.7 million has signed up and if there is capacity to train and equip them, then the war should change significantly over the next 6 – 12 months.

  6. I watch everything you post. But….50 caliber is half an inch– 12.7mm, not 50mm. 50mm is enormous. The CV 90 has a 40mm gun, the Bradley 25mm. I didn't expect such a rookie mistake from this channel.

  10. Its all nice. But Ukraine SSO is operating on the frontline, it shouldn't happen. They are too valuable. Madyar drone unit is moving there to help, so situation is harsh.

  16. Europeans gotta Wonder. With Ukraine being blown Asunder. Could trust in Biden be a Blunder? Approaching Storm means Putin's Thunder.

  19. Still beggin' NATO, but outta Time. The sound is off,it don't quite Chime. He lives in splendor, yes on our Dime. And yet, his troops face mud and Grime. I search my mind, just one more Rhyme. Ah yes, he ain't no Mannerheim!

  23. Why is everything pixelated now even a photo shot of an explosion cloud some distance away. But now if you want to see even a single picture you have to pay on some sight I cant even get. "OK" I unsubscribed so I am gone. P.S. your hat was never worth the money you charged for it.

  28. 💰💰💰💰💰💰🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦📈📈📈🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦💯💯💯💯💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰📈📈🇺🇸🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪📈📈💰💰🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇸🇰🇸🇰🇸🇰🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪

  30. I really question about the draft being succesful and 4.7 milion ukrainians are combat ready? I saw a lot of videos of fleeing ukrainian men and the latest news reports where about struggling ukrainian drafts.

  31. If there is a tunnel into Niu York underneath Ukrainian controlled territory then ground penetrating radar could locate it.

  35. 2:12 its not 50mm but cal .50 (=12.7x99mm), that is a HUGE difference and I think there are no 50mm fast firing guns on vehicles (maybe on ships, but still not as fast as a Minigun or Gatling-Gun), the ammo is simply to large at 50mm, I think 25-30mm like at the Bradley is the maximum, same for planes, the gunship planes usually got a 20-30mm gun.

  37. You are only propagandist trying to make win from lost. How come this dangerous brakethrough has not been cut yet? Give us the reason if you possition your self as a strategist? I am tired of all similar armchair generals making fortune from others sucrifies. I am wondering how much of you youtube and merch income goes to the UA army.

  43. What a horror for all. But Russians can end it by going home. The US and NATO must free Ukraine of all weapons restrictions so that it can neutralize the glide bomb threat. By the way, Zaluzhny, as Ukrainian ambassador to Britain, greeted Zelenskyy in a suit. Time to change pictures?

  44. sadly if dumb Trump gets in , it will be game over for Ukraine as he is a Putin puppet and all military aid will stop. The forced peace will allow Russia to keep its gains of territory.

  46. I've never read anyone who has used the word "however" so many times. Not even in their whole life. You also use it in the best possible way – to describe Russian futile efforts to advance. They cannot believe they've lost this war. Humiliation is hard to accept.
