Russian military operations continue in Ukraine. Almost all front lines are marked by heavy positional battles while in the north of the Donetsk People’s Republic Russian-led forces continue their offensive on the Ukrainian defenses along the Bakhmut-Seversk-Soledar lines.

The Russian military is set to approach to the road between the city of Bakhmut and Gorlovka in an attempt to surround Ukrainian forces in Bakhmut from the south. Fighting continues in Kodema, the last town on the Russian way to the road.

Russian assault groups claimed full control of the village of Vershina on August 14. It is located 10 kilometers to the south-east of Bakhmut. Russian-led forces have recently reached the outskirts of Zaitsevo and fighting is ongoing in Veselaya Dolina, where Ukrainian units are still holding their heavily fortified positions.

On August 16, the Russian Ministry of Defence claimed that more than 50 servicemen as well as six units of military equipment of the Ukrainian 72nd Motorized Infantry Brigade were destroyed in the area.

Meanwhile, battles continue on the streets of Bakhmut, where Russian assault groups entered four days ago and managed to establish a foothold on the eastern outskirts.

In the city of Soledar, the advancing units attempt to develop their offensive towards the Belokamensk refractory plant and gypsum quarry. Fighting is ongoing on the streets to the north of the KNAUF-Gypsum plant.

According to DPR military officials, Ukrainian officers left the area of Soledar, and soldiers there were left to their own devices.

Ukrainian forces suffer heavy losses in counter-battery duels in the area. More than 50% of the personnel and military equipment of the 15th Battalion of the 58th Motorized Infantry Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were destroyed.

Positional battles on the Donetsk front lines resulted in heavy losses of the Ukrainian 66th brigade deployed in Marinka. According to the Russian military, they amount to up to 70% of the military personnel.

The Allied forces also claimed advances in the area. DPR units reached the highway between Maryinka and Ugledar. This complicated any military supply to the Ukrainian grouping deployed to the west of Donetsk.

After the town of Peski came under the control of the DPR military, advancing forces pushed the Ukrainian military about 10 kilometers to the west. There, they launched an offensive on the town of Nevelskoye. These gains allow DPR troops to move toward Krasnogorovka as well.

The Russian-led offensive is slowed down by the necessity to break down through the areas that have been fortified by the Ukrainian military for years. On the other hand, Ukrainian forces are yet to claim any significant gains on the front lines.

How did the NATO forces do in Afghanistan for over 20 years?? Should we call NATO paper tigers as well??

Russians seem to be doing better than NATO forces did in Afghanistan…. a country of mountain dwellers!!!!

The answer is YES

Well, first off they aren’t there to steal resources like some other countries do when doing any military action.

There are differences. Number one is we are helping a very determinant Ukraine. Next its much easier to bring th support. We also hardly has any real soldiers there.

You might have forgotten Russia invanded Afghanistan and lost.

NATO and Ukro peon planners have been planning this meat grinder for years, co-ordinated by the cabal in switzerland. While the Euro kike ethnic cleansers have been having a complete field day they funnel the neo nationalist hero classes into the sausage machine. the producers diddit.

It is! I believe Southfront was cyber attacked a few times too, you can be sure it was the SBU, with it’s blacklist of Russian propagandists.

They even hire lowlifes to spam faggotry, everyday, on each article SF published. No normal person spends his free time on SF just to be in denial about the military situation in Ukraine, and constantly post constructive criticism in a respectful manner. They are desperated!

Yeah the true nature of degenerate modern liberalism is on display now..i am American. I speak English. .I admire the accomplishments of western liberal civilization but its time is obviously coming to an end. Western liberalism is sick. What better proof of its sterile dying nature than the constant parade of trans degenerates and faggots, incapable of reproducing themselves, they reproduce a diseased and dying culture

Please don’t, my family lives here. I admit that most of my fellow Americans are, in fact, imbeciles and easily led by their nose-rings. The same seals trained to worship the Black Messiah Obama now clap passionately whenever the hologram of Green Shirt appears.

But 95% of the media here is pure Globohomo, so the odds were always stacked against them. Still, Americans are waking up.

Please use Bakmut’s actual name: Artyomovsk. It’s gonna be renamed back to its Russian name soon enough anyways. The Ukronazi regime deserves nothing to be remembered for, including their raping of the Russian town names along with its women.

It was Bakhmut from its beginning centuries ago up to 1924. Then it was renamed after a Bolshevik revolutionary (“Artyom”).

There is a reason why Russia doesn’t just apply the Soviet term. Like in Volgograd or Petersburg.

helen

But the people of DPR are Soviets, they only lived under [communist] socialist Soviet Union and liberal Ukraine, and they want the socialist Soviet Union! Actually, maybe they won’t like it under liberal Russia… has anyone THOUGHT of that in liberal Russia?

jens holm

We dont care halft a turkish tourist camel about your oppinion. There is no patent on that name and its more or less stupid changes.

Even worse is Königsberg renamed to Kalinin. No Russians has ever lived there until it was 99% empty and USSr took it.

I have the same for fx Istanbull. No respeckt for old Konstantinopel. Its made by greeks, named by greek Christians and was respected as integrated uniting name by the Otomans as well.

jens holm

There we go again. I spell and name as i learned in scholl. In dont care if a town is named viv or vov .

Bakhmut (Ukrainian: Бахму́т, pronounced [bɐxˈmut]) in 1924-2016: Artemivsk (Ukrainian: Артемівськ) or Artyomovsk (Russian: Артёмовск) before 1924:

It was based on Serbian emmigrants in 1924.

Vice versa.

Seems to be that the Ukraine-UK war effort has shifted to trying to perform acts of sabotage in order to slow down a potential Russian offensive towards Nikolaev in the south. The focus upon Crimean transport links points towards this fear. UK military intelligence support marks it as an undeclared direct belligerent, acting incredibly cowardly in trying to stand-off from the conflict but without paying the price for it’s deep involvement, there is no such thing as a half pregnant woman however and Britannia is well and truly up the duff with the Donbas War!

You dont die from a an insect bite. This is not a loss for russia.

Yall have to stop looking at this as a zero sum game.

The russians dont play that game, once you understand that, maybe it will make more sense to you.

Very optimistic. Its about how many small bites.

It has been promised and expected from day one. When You take land with so many enemies, they will resist as they can and also be helped by their Goverment.

Very visible in WW2 for USSR. After the big losses by Hitler, the russian leftovers began some resistance. After some time stalin was able to give them supply. The di a lot of harm to the Nazi infrastructure and bound troops too.

Pamfil Military Academy

Listen what Pamfil Military Academy say this time:

Ukropizdan JNATO whore hohols will begin its REAL counterattack in Izium area. The Kherson/Zaporodjie one was dead in its tracks from beginning. Also was a sort of a MI6 feint and frontline probing. After seeing the map with the ukrop troops transfer, they concentrated no more than 3 TANK BRIGADES, side by side. This is not a defense, this a warn for attack. But the odds are in favor of russians because there are a very heavily forested area and the tanks do shit in such places. A very good situation for Kremlin to improve the PR by destroying some 100 tanks in 3 days.

Its a kind of stalemate there too. When the Russians move troops from there, the Ukras can adcance some. When theRussians move troops back, the ukras has to retreat again.

Very much is abiut being exhausted. The less exhausted can take terrain and win. So far the russians send mnore and more troops. By that they so far are less exhausted.

Dick Von D'Astard

Starting to think the game plan of the Nuland/Kagan nutter club was to somehow weaken the Russian state militarily and economically to the level where the UK and France would be able to mount an eastern European offensive (in conjunction with Poland and Ukrainian canon fodder) for their U.S. masters against Russia as the U.S./Japan/Australia attempted to weaken China in a war over Taiwan without Russia being able to assist as an ally.

How stupid can these Neocons get! It’s all backfired upon them as soon as the economic warfare the collective West mounted against Russia failed after three days.

The British army does not exist as functional offensive force. It has been systemically dismantled since Thatcher’s time, and is now just a pale shadow of the powerful military force it once was. If it was asked to defend it’s own borders, it is highly unlikely that it would have the capacity to even do that. So whoever thinks that it would be able to form a military alliance of any strength with anybody, hasn’t a clue. Anyone who thought that the British army and the French would work together in any way militarily is a fool of the highest order.

jens holm

Parts of that is highly correct. Their empire finally went bankrupby WW2. After that they has had to reseize.

But they are not as You insinuate. They are still big compared to many others in military forces as well as economy.

They are not organized as You and Yours. They has just declined some hard and realtisc steps. Thye also are with Nato and has nukes to assist.

You just create an illusion. britts weaker dont say others are stronger.

jens holm

I dnt think its stupid and not many here are neocons at all.

This is about Ukraine has the UN right as a couintry to decide its own destintion.

Our world dont look at You so desperate try to descriebe. We are Our own masters. Some of them are organized in EU as well as Natoi.
