The Russian occupation troops have concentrated all their efforts on trying to capture the Donetsk region within its administrative border and continue to advance in the Bakhmut direction. The most fierce fighting continues in the areas of the settlements of Soledar, Paraskoveevka, Bakhmut and Kleshchievka, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
In the neighboring Avdeevsky direction, the enemy is conducting unsuccessful offensive operations, and in Kupyansky and Limansky, he does not leave attempts to improve the tactical situation. In the Novopavlovsk, Zaporozhye and Kherson directions, the occupying army is defending itself, shelling settlements along the right bank of the Dnieper River. In particular, mortar attacks were carried out on the suburbs and the city of Kherson itself.
In the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson region, the invaders continue to rob the local population - in one of the settlements of the Kakhovka district, the occupying authorities announced an inventory of movable and immovable property of local private entrepreneurs, followed by the so-called “nationalization”.
To make up for losses in manpower, the enemy does not stop the mobilization of the male population, including in the temporarily occupied territory of the Luhansk region. So, in the city of Alchevsk, the beginning of the next wave of mobilization was marked on January 9 this year.
During the day, the aviation of the Ukrainian Defense Forces delivered 15 strikes against enemy concentration areas, as well as 5 strikes against the positions of its anti-aircraft missile systems. In addition, our soldiers shot down an enemy Su-25 aircraft and an Orlan-10 unmanned aerial vehicle, and missilemen and gunners hit 3 command posts, 3 enemy manpower and military equipment concentration areas, an enemy S-300 anti-aircraft missile system and 3 ammunition depots.
Recall that intelligence noted an increase in the number of formations operating as part of Russian conquests - if last week there were 250 enemy formations in Ukraine, then on January 10 there were already 280 of them. However, enemy losses are also growing.
