Today, there are a lot of updates from the Kurakhove direction.

Recently, the Russian forces have launched a series of probing attacks around Kostiantynivka, each attempt failing to breach the resilient Ukrainian defenses. However, one of the most significant and intense mechanized assaults of the war took place recently, featuring a massive flank attack from the north of Kostiantynivka that promised to change the dynamics on the battlefield dramatically.

North of Kostiantynivka lies the small village of Pobieda, which fell into Russian hands a month ago. Exploiting its proximity to Marinka, Russian forces have determined that advancing beyond Pobieda should become their primary objective. This move aims to boost their northern advance and cripple Ukrainian supply routes in the area. If successful, this audacious strategy would place Ukrainian forces in Kostiantynivka under pressure from the north, east, and south, while also allowing the Russians to preserve personnel and equipment by avoiding costly frontal assaults from Novomykhailivka. Central to this offensive operation is the utilization of the local road from Marinka to Kostiantynivka, providing the Russians with a crucial tactical advantage for rapid mechanized assaults. The most significant obstacles to their advance are the fortified Ukrainian defensive positions within the tree lines and the vineyard located next to the road.

Military bloggers reported that to undermine them, apart from using regular artillery, Russian forces engaged Ukrainian tanks located around the vineyard. The defenders used them not only to suppress any enemy advancement attempts with their powerful cannons but also to conduct counterattacks. Geolocated footage released by Russian sources shows how a Ukrainian Leopard tank is attacked with an FPV drone in a tree line, which leads to fire and detonation of the vehicle. After conducting various such preparations, the Russians started launching mechanized assaults through the village of Pobieda.

The Russian plan consisted of two critical steps. First, they aimed to overwhelm the local defense with a sufficiently strong assault group, swiftly taking control of the vineyard and the nearby fortifications. This initial phase was crucial for securing a foothold in the area. Second, they intended to capitalize on this momentum to gain more territory southwest of Pobieda. This move aimed to fortify their positions against potential Ukrainian counterattacks, which would likely be launched to prevent the Russians from entrenching themselves further south of the village. By executing these steps, the Russians hoped to create a stable front line and reduce the risk of losing newly acquired ground.

Ukrainian forces responsible for the defense of this section of the frontline released a video showing how they reacted to the first step in the Russian plan, namely the frontal storm operation using various armored vehicles on the highway from Marinka. Once again, the video gives a good overview of not only the large force that the Russians used in this operation but also how prepared the Ukrainian defense was. Even with weakened support due to the Russian preparation attacks against defensive assets just before the assault, Ukrainian artillery and drone operator units unleashed all their firepower against the enemy armored column. Several Russian infantry fighting vehicles can be seen getting damaged by mines, artillery shells, and kamikaze drones even before being able to pass through Pobieda. Others were destroyed just before the vineyard and the disembarked surviving Russian troops were quickly engaged by the Ukrainians with grenades dropped by drones. All uncensored footage from this Russian attack can be found on our Telegram channel linked in the description.

Despite the fierce Ukrainian resistance and the failure of the first step of the Russian plan, which aimed to gain control over the vineyard, Russian forces managed to partially achieve the secondary objective. They executed a successful westward assault from Pobieda, advancing by a few hundred meters into the field. This maneuver allowed them to slightly increase a buffer zone, thereby protecting themselves against potential Ukrainian flank maneuvers…

  2. Another encouraging report and more good progress. Keep well and continue your excellent reports. Your vids are my first YT visit every morning

  4. I’m really getting tired of sending my tax dollars to a bunch of corrupt cross dressing Azov Nazis like Zelenskyy. Trump will stop that shit.

  8. And yet german news agencies claim "the momentum is on russias side".
    As if we had not enough reason to feel ashamed of our country already

  11. the problem with this channel is that he is reporting a one sided story whilst heavy losses are almost never reported or wiped under the rug as if its not important to give a balanced view

  12. I look at the map of the Ukraine and see that Ukraine is getting smaller and Russia is getting bigger …can you help me ??…understand how this is happening ?…because we know Ukraine is winning??…can any one explain this ???…thank you

  17. Yesterday marked one of the biggest Russian advances in the last several months according to Deepstatemap, and this guy is still using clickbateas…

  19. Consequences of not supporting Ukraine in defending territories: China will not respect Taiwan because the US is not respecting and supporting its ally! The US, France, the UK, China, and russia signed Budapest Agreement on December 5th,1994. The agreement was to support Ukraine's integrity against any aggressor.

  20. Sorry, but that showed to me, that the Ukraine is not able to use highly valuable assets like the Leo 2 accordingly. A MBT is not a defence strongpoint, to be placed somewhere around a vineyard, it's a mobile, offensive weapon, to be used with AA and infantry.

  21. la verdad ahi que decirla putin va sacrificar 2 millones de soldados o mas…. que pendejos son esos rusos , y tambien ahi que considerar que es una maquina de guerra…tiene mucho arsenal …con todo eso que le han destruido y siguen y siguen….

  23. This site is only a fake promoter the reality is another, reading here the ukronazists will be at Moscow but reality is another, they are loosing territory ewery time by a defence setted military Force. Russian are not interested to waste all ukraine territory and have force and arms in strong quantity.

  35. Ukraine casually resisting the New Russian Imperial army with a fraction of their manpower. Europe and the world are indebted to you, truly. Respects from France. We thought of you in Ukraine when we campaigned against our far right parties financed by Russian banks.
