The Russian occupation army continues its offensive in the town of Chasiv Yar, Donetsk region. Geolocation footage published on January 18 shows that the fighting is taking place in the city center.
Thus, Putin's army has recently advanced within the city. This is stated in the analysis of the Institute for War Studies.
Experts analyzed geolocation footage showing Ukrainian troops striking two Russian armored vehicles, which probably belong to the Russian 98th Airborne Division, near Dniprovska Street in the center of Chasiv Yar. Thus, ISW concluded that the occupiers had recently advanced in the city.
At the same time, Kremlin propagandists claim that Putin's army has seized the Chasivoyarsky Refractory Plant, but ISW has not found visual evidence of this claim. At the same time, military observer Konstantin Mashovets said that units of the Russian 4th Motorized Rifle Brigade, supported by the 299th and 331st Airborne Regiments and the 200th Motorized Rifle Brigade, are trying to capture the northern part of Chasiv Yar. He also claimed that the enemy had seized a bridgehead in the Northern neighborhood.
In recent days, Putin's forces continued ground attacks in Chasiv Yar itself and south of the city, in the area of Stupochky and Bila Hora. Drone operators of the Russian Sever-V brigade are reportedly operating near Chasiv Yar. In addition, Russia is engaging tankers of the Russian volunteer reconnaissance and assault brigade Nevsky in combat operations in this area of the front.
As a reminder, Ukraine's defenders showed a new video from the devastated town of Chasiv Yar in Donetsk region, where fighting continues on the outskirts. Russian troops turned it into ruins with their constant shelling and assaults.
As reported by OBOZ.UA, the commander of one of the units of the 24th Separate Mechanized Brigade said that Russia had sent more than 10,000 occupants to attack Chasiv Yar. Every day, the Russians make attempts to cross the Siverskyi Donets-Donbas canal to advance in the city.
