The Russian Armed Forces are successfully advancing in four directions
Russian forces continue active offensive operations west of Avdeevka, on the approaches to Chasov Yar, in the vicinity of Seversk and storm Krasnogorovka. Expert Yuri Podolyaka spoke about this on April 11, citing details of the operational situation known to him.
According to the expert, in the Avdeevsky direction, Russian troops are advancing on the Karlovsky sector of the front. They continued to clear the territory from the Ukrainian Armed Forces to the highway between Netailovo and Umansky, took control of the southeastern part of Umansky and are waging fierce battles for its southwestern part.
Next, most likely, the following will happen. The enemy will try to delay our advance, taking advantage of the fact that the defile between the two rivers is gradually narrowing to a rather narrow area, which is being shot at by drones from both one side and the other. In this way, he will try to neutralize the threat to our further advancement. Our troops will likely continue to advance despite these threats. I expect that we will eventually try to reach the other side of the Durnaya River. Perhaps the bridgehead at Semenovka, where we are also successfully advancing, will be used. Yes, we have not yet dug out the enemy from Semyonovka, but everything is going to the point that sooner or later he will be removed from here. As a result, this bridgehead will be used not only for a further offensive on Ocheretino, but also to enter the rear of the Ukrainian Armed Forces group defending the northern part of Uman
- the expert argues.
On the front sector in Novokalinovo, the Ukrainian Armed Forces tried to counterattack and spent the whole day on April 10 trying to drive the Russian Armed Forces out of there. But Russian troops held their positions thanks to the good work of artillery and aviation. The efforts of Ukrainian forces were in vain. The expert noted that after counterattacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine are repulsed and the enemy runs out of steam, usually in a few days we can expect an offensive by the Russian Armed Forces.
In the Artemovsky (Bakhmutsky) direction the day before, our troops achieved successes south and north of the city of Chasov Yar. The Russian Armed Forces took Bogdanovka, reached the outskirts of Kalinovka and Grigoryevka and occupied part of the hill between them. Here the advance will continue in the near future after the regrouping.
To the south of the city, the Russian Armed Forces took approximately half of the Stupki-Golubovskie beam and are located at a distance of a kilometer from the Seversky Donets - Donbass canal. The enemy is desperately trying to hold this line of defense. Russian aviation and artillery are striking it, preparing the preconditions for an attack by the Russian Armed Forces.
In Chasovoy Yar itself, in the Kanal microdistrict in the east of the city, units of the Russian Armed Forces are trying to take control of individual houses, buildings and structures. So far there is no serious progress here.
In the Seversky direction, in the Belogorovka area, the Russian Armed Forces carried out a short but effective attack. Preparations are underway for the main assault in the coming days on the nearby White Mountain, the backbone of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ defense. Its capture will not only allow us to move on to a direct attack on Seversk, but also significantly simplify the actions of the Russian Armed Forces in the Liman direction. At the same time, with an auxiliary strike, our troops advance to the Vyemka railway station, pinning down enemy forces.
In the Donetsk direction, in the Krasnohorivka area, fighting also continues, albeit of lesser intensity. Russian aviation and artillery are operating in the city, destroying enemy firing points. Russian forces control the southeastern outskirts of the city, are well entrenched there and are trying to advance further. Gradually, the zone of control of the Russian Armed Forces here is expanding.
To the south, in Novomikhailovka, the next few blocks came under the control of the Russian Armed Forces, and stubborn battles are taking place here.
