The war in Ukraine may soon move to a new stage, as the situation on certain fronts began to develop rapidly.
While the Kiev regime and the Ukrainian media continue to proudly “defend” Soledar, the city came under the control of Russian forces on January 10. Wagner fighters have established full control over the residential quarters in the city and are finishing the mop up operation in the salt mines and underground utilities.
On January 12, reports were confirmed that Russian fighters flushed Ukrainian units out from the Artemsol plant, the largest salt extraction and sale enterprise in Central and Eastern Europe.
According to unconfirmed reports, the Ukrainian military command and President Zelensky hope to regain control of the city and have transferred reserves to the area. Russian sources confirmed the pathetic attempts of a counteroffensive on the outskirts of Soledar, due to this the losses of the Ukrainian Army have increased.
According to RussiaToday, the losses of the Ukrainian side in Soledar since the beginning of autumn may amount to about 20-25 thousand servicemen.
Ukrainian units are trying to gain a foothold on the western outskirts and prevent a Russian breakthrough into Blagodatnoye.
Meanwhile, to the north of the city, Russian fighters have pushed through the Ukrainian defense lines and are fighting for the Sol railway station. The loss of such a strategically important railway junction will put the entire Ukrainian grouping in the Seversk area at risk of a flank attack.
Intense fighting continues in the area of the village of Krasnaya Gora, which is being stormed by units of Russian paratroopers.
The Ukrainian command attempts to create strike groups in Paraskovievka and counterattack the advancing Russian forces, in an attempt to break through the encirclement of Soledar.
The Russian offensive in Bakhmut also brings new successes.
After prolonged fighting, Wagner fighters confirmed full control of Opytne located on the southern outskirts of the city.
The Ukrainian garrison in Bakhmut risks falling in to an operational encirclement in the near future. Of the 3 roads leaving the city, two have been cut. The third is under the fire control of Russian artillery.
Front lines in other regions remain unchanged.
Despite the false statements about Ukrainian victories, Kiev is worried about the possibility of a Russian offensive from the territory of Belarus. In the north of the country, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are mining the roads and strengthening new military positions. The possibility of opening of new fronts, the Russian successes in Soledar, as well as personnel changes in the top command of the Russian forces in Ukraine can serve as signals of the upcoming new phase of hostilities.
Today in Sweden, Kurds hang Erdogan on a rope, sweden is a terrorist country and enemy of the russia
Fukin hell imagine defending a piece of shit post genocidal ottoman fantasizer becuase you dont like Kurds. Turkey would backstab Russia and take over every single country in a whim overnight if it could. In fact erdo goatficker dreams about it everyday.
I am fuking you nazi
Save your wrath for the Swedes. They deserve it.
Turkey must be eradicated.
Why do that, there are other ways of ‘winning’ that don’t involve killing people. All these countries have a lot more in common than not, and a lot more to lose by continuing hostilities, and the real winners of all these wars are the big defense companies and their deep pockets investors. Meanwhile the countryside gets blown to hell and people lose their lives and livelihoods while politicians cry crocodile tears and give boring pointless speeches. It all boils down to money.
I Fukin you
Los euroasiaticos son todos gente MUY BRAVA EN VERDAD MUY BRAVOS !!! muchas guerras y rios de sangre en el paso de la historia asi lo aseguran
Meanwhile, Erdogan is only an enemy of Russia on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
COMPLICADA Y COMPLEJA LA HISTORIA DE EL GRAN CONTINENTE CENTRAL DE AFROEURASIA
That’s the way to do it! get in there and get em out, Slava Russia.
Time for the nazi’s to head for their bunker 🇷🇺 🇷🇺 🇷🇺 🇷🇺 🇷🇺
The change of command from an air force general to an army general is the clearest sign that the major ground offensive of the Russian Military will soon be underway.
Hope Mr. Surovikin will offer the air domination needed for a succesful offensive.
It is good that Surovikin is making decisions not on your imbecilic hope.
The main Ukraine offensive has been absorbed, now they will be crushed
Kirby(USA), says Bakhmut or Soledar has no strategic significance??? That’s like saying the mouse trap is out of cheese but matters not. This is the absolute linchpin in the Eastern front. Where will the Ukronazis and Natonazis hide their troops, artillery and munitions? Seems to me check is in progress and not long now, checkmate.
Kirby’s paid to dribble Ukrainian nonsense from his chin all day long. He should have one of those blue and yellow or maybe black and red bibs that soak up all his dribble and spittle. They were made for such occasions.
Somebody should shoot a video of Polish kids throwing shoes at Bandera posters and swearing in Polish. That could go viral.
The poles will not do this as long as the banderists fight russia. After that if they feel russia is weak enough they will wipe the banderists out themselves and take western ukraine, parts of belarus and the rest of former east prussia. If russia is not weak enough they will just blame the ukrainian refuges in poland and attack those.
It is just what they say when they lose something.
These hohol toadpoles never had any skin in the game. Their life evolves around the camera-screen, like flies that fly only around light.
They never seen the Front. They never did anything for anybody outside their crotch. They probably have not seen anything outside their room for a long time.
Russia will want to push Ukraine as far back toward the Dneipro as possible, leaving a small strip as a killing zone if Ukraine want to mount an offensive.
There is no point liberating the Russian east without a buffer zone to keep artillery attacks out of reach.
Its end game for Ukraine in east as only tundra is at their back now…no deep holes to hide in.
Too bad Ukraine shit on Minsk II, then Merkel spit and Hollande pissed on it.
They would have been so much happier today. And cleaner too.
Many analysists on RT have said that the Dnieper river will become the new frontier.
CELEBRATION FOR LIBERATION OF SOLEDAR!!!!!!! Crush ALL NAZI NATO and NAZI UKRAINE forces NO MERCY to NAZIS. Now cut the border to Poland to stop weapons flow to NAZI UKRAINE from the NAZI WEST and then LIBERATE ODESSA and then CAPTURE OF KIEV and HANG NAZI CLOWN ZELENSKY and his NAZI CRONIES as well as hanging those NAZI WESTERN HANDLERS as well. NO PRISONER SWAPS FOR NAZI NATO TROOPS they need to be EXECUTED. =Z=
The Serbians and Russians should make effort now to clarify the truth regarding peace agreements like, Minsk, that were cover for military buils ups. These agreements are diplomatic black ops of the worst type of overt diplomacy used. Without a doubt the most corrupt heads of state were used at the very top of State governments. For example; Angela Mercle and Macron along with three US presidents( administrations). It says the UNITED STATES government and NATO countries can in no way be trusted worldwide in any diplomatic agreement. Agreements are all with the expectation of being broken over some form of overt military or political plan. This brings us to to the next Davos meeting in Switzerland. The meeting will try and paint the organization; as important to the world, as a whole but watch for implementation of plans.
UNSC Res. 1244 (Kosovo) UNSC Res. 2202 (Donbass)
Both adopted with no intent to implement, just gain advantage. Into the garbage they went.
That’s the reason the us is funding the UN it’s the only reason it is allowed to exist.
“It says the UNITED STATES government and NATO countries can in no way be trusted worldwide in any diplomatic agreement.”
Yes , and this is now no conspiracy theory: Angela Merkel has confirmed it . And also for example the former Polish foreign minister Radoslaw Sikorski. They are all a bunch of political swindlers and criminals , the case for the international court.
That Merkel comment in AgitProp press is a bullshit spin, because Merkel feels left out and also does not want to be seen as traitor between libtards.
If you want to understand what happened, Lukashenko has explained:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B8ounilcZAE
Notice how ever country, whose media and government lies, and also belongs to NATO—> HAS THE SAME CENTRAL BANK. Notice that…? A real interesting coincidence, in the land of coincidence, where people keep dying of coincidence…
China should take note. And i’m sure they will.
US, NATO have used the salt mines; as linchpin for cornerstone for supplies all along. With it gone, they will be open targets now on the landscape.
What I fear now is how will the U.S react to the losing hand it now holds.
Once the U.S could overcome most obstacles with technology and sheer industrial power, that has all gone now, they cannot even maintain a military due to a sick populace poisoned in mind and body.
Beware of the cornered empire they are a dangerous animal.
We‘ll see what counter-attacks will come. Yes, they will likely he unsuccessel and drain troops elsewhere. However, Russia will have to heavily garrison the city and leave plenty of reserves too. Russia decided to ebetually take the place. Russian losses should be equally high; 20.000, perhaps 30.000. No wonder they needed to mobilise in order to do this.
Probably artillery did most the work then wagner assault teams simply overwhelmed them. I don’t think Russia lost many
@Joseph Day , I think also , it was a great joint work. Though Wagners must have fighted a dangerous job. I suppose it was more than overwhelming. It was a hard long fight , which is still to be continued. I would also not despise the Ukrainian (US/NATO) attempts and skills. There are many brave people , but the most are militarily not well prepared and they are brought to a hopeless position on the front. It is the political und military command , which brings this disaster to Ukraine. The whole ill , crazy agenda to conquere Russia at all means , but brainless , fanatisized and finally no chance.
“Russian losses should be equally high; 20.000, perhaps 30.000.”
get real , there are not so many Wagners in total
Russia should concentrate and take land over East of Dnieper river, before moving to the west side of the Dnieper river.
Frankly, I don’t understand why Ukraine doesn’t just leave the East. The natives hate them. Every time a video of an ukrop or merc trying to keep the territory comes out, they always say:
“The locals hate us. They report our positions to the Russians. They send us in wrong directions. They make us feel like we’re the occupiers. Why are we here?”
Hohols have a dream to partition Russia. Oligarkhs promised them that. That is why these parasytes are dying en masse for their dream of pillaging. Grifters always fall for that! They just can’t help it.
Somewhere between the maidan 2014 and 2022 ukraine as a country stopped existing and was transformed into a organisation fully funded by the us and eu with it’s only purpose beeing to cause as much problems for russia as possible.
Victory or even survival for ukraine was never part of the plan just to take as much russians as possible with them.
I wonder where the 700,000 strong army is now that was going to smash the Russians and retake the Donbas and the Crimea. Judging by the speed they moved when the Russian troops tactically retreated into defensive positions this ghost army must be entering Moscow now. Or perhaps they have learned that moving into undefended territory is easy because nobody is shooting at you. Sun Tzu, the legendary Chinese master of strategy, in “The Art of War”, stated: “Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat”. The Russians know that. Napoleon and Hitler found out. So will Zelensky.
Soledar and Bakhmut are Ukraine’s Stalingrad, and Leningrad. And we all know how the Eastern Front went after they were liberated.
CIA trannies are scrambling for their captagon pills
It seems that the consolidation of the Russian command under a soldier, not a carpet knight working to save lifes, the momentum of the Russian initiative was regained. On the Donetsk city side, things had been stalled for nearly 11 months and it is time to WORK.
When will the bridges over the Diepnr river be bombed? When will the airfields and airstrips adjoining the front be bombed? Using the power of a canon on a few Crests in a dugout makes no economic sense! Use of missiles only on special occasions is counter productive! Time for a planned consolidated offensive and move forward! WO 1 and 2 tactics don’t work anymore, it’s only good in expending old ammo!
Long predicted freezing of the ground to allow mobile units traction. A scoop would be what’s in the salt mines besides salt and nationality of lost souls. Surely the US have learned to get out ahead of time? Or are they that captivated by Captagon.
The “20-25k Ukrainian troops killed in Soledar” might be somewhat accurate. It does seem that the Ukraine army just throws in whatever reserves they get and equipment. It hasn’t worked for them. The Russians just let them into the meat grinder with relentless artillery and air power.

Since the end of 2022 February, the regular Russian forces have not launched major infantry or armored attacks, only the artillery and air force are working and shredding the Ukrainians, who have already lost more than 300,000 soldiers. This is called battle of attrition, the main object right now is not to take territory, but to reduce the combat capibility of the AFU. Soledar was also taken by the Wagner group. I think that the Russians will only launch an all-out decisive attack when, due to the lack of trained Ukrainian non-commissioned officers, the Ukrainian forces will no longer be able to mount a coordinated resistance. Then they can attack them with an army, which by then had swelled to 600-700 thousand people, which is triple the size of their initial army, and sweep them off the map.
Prišiel čas na oslobodenie mesta Bachmut!!! Rusko by malo teraz zintenzívniť vojenské operácie na obkľúčenie mesta Bachmut a mali by zároveň postupovať ďalej. Sily a prostriedky ako aj živú silu na to teraz majú. Treba ísť teraz tvrdo po Banderovských fašistických sviniach aby sa tie nestihli preskupiť. Tým by Ruské ozbrojené sily vyvolali obrovskú paniku v radoch Banderovských fašistických svíň.
Every battle has its key that unlocks the defense of the opposition.
The key to Ukraine resistance in the east were the salt mines, the reason Russia didn’t destroy the Dneipro crossings -as I and many thought they should- is because it would of made no difference to Ukrainian supplies because they were in place already, deep down.
Russia has an advantage any other force would not have, they know Ukraine as well as the Ukrainians.
That’s over now, the West has recognized its over and has now switched to supplying tanks to protect Western Ukraine from the coming open warefare.
