06 Sep: Footage: Strongest Ukrainian Bastion VS Russian Meat Wave Attacks | War in Ukraine Explained

today there are a lot of updates from the kurakov direction here in a Daran maneuver Russian forces have launched a bold assault on the pivo donaska coal mine a crucial stronghold just 2 kilm from Vadar as the battle unfolds the fate of this industrial complex hangs in the balance with both sides acutely aware that its capture could dramatically alter the entire Vadar front vladar remains one of the most symbolically significant strongholds in Ukrainian hands in this direction two key factors underscore its importance firstly Vadar is situated at a dominant height and its residential areas featuring high-rise buildings or citadels have allowed Ukrainian forces to establish formidable bastions dominating a vast area of the Russian Advance secondly since the war's outset vladar has been a crucial Supply Center due to its proximity to two major roads the t509 from Vila noila and the T 524 from Vadar to costantina over the past 2 years Russian forces have repeatedly attempted to capture Vadar using frontal mechanized assaults from the south suffering catastrophic losses in recent days Russian forces have resumed assault operations on vladar and the nearby locality of vodan extensive artillery preparation has been done over the whole area with satellite data confirming the extraordinary intensity of Russian Artillery discharges crucially the Russian strategy has shifted from frontal assault efforts to an encirclement attempt from the south and Northeast to the north east Russian forces managed to move the front line to the to 0532 Road itself and have also crossed and taken positions Beyond it at limited points this effectively renders the road mostly unusable as a logistical Supply route for Ukraine at the same time an attack from the south aimed at piska has also put under severe pressure the t z 509 Road as a supply road to Ukrainian forces fortunately Ukrainian forces still can rely on the road descending from boho Lanka as the primary logistical route moreover due to dry weather conditions ukrainians could rely on uncountable dirty tracks to complement the main route with these Alternatives the ukrainians are still far from facing personnel and Equipment Supply problems to Vadar a prominent Russian military analyst has recently claimed that Russian forces have crossed the Road Southeast of vodan and are now trying to advance toward this settlement with a relatively broad front some Russian sources suggest that initial Russian forces have even managed to enter the northern area of vodan albeit in a very limited manner of particular concern Russian forces have also Advanced towards the pivo donbas mine number one located just 2 and a half kilm Northwest of Vadar this complex one of Ukraine's most important coal mines opened in 1973 and has galleries almost half a kilometer deep its industrial facilities have served as a support Bastion for Vadar in countless Russian frontal assaults over the past two years geolocated images recently published by Ukrainian sources show the landing of Russian infantry supported by a bmp2 which initiates the storming of an industrial site belonging to the PIV denodon basa mine the bmp2 vehicle was reportedly hit in the side but managed to withdraw while this isolated Landing attempt appears to be a mere exploratory probe than part of a broader effort the diligent Ukrainian response based mainly on fpv drones demonstrates that the defense of vuh hedler and its surroundings is still based on the same principles that have made it an impossible Bastion for more than 2 years there is significant reconnaissance efforts for an early warning the efficient combination of minefields atgms artillery force and particularly fpv drones which together have managed to successfully stop all Russian mechanized attacks the original uncensored combat footage of this operation can be found on our telegram Channel Through the link in the description the potential loss of the padon basa mine could be critical for several reasons firstly the mine area not only has robust High industrial buildings but also includes a notable waste heap if we look at the topographic map we can observe that the ston conforms an artificial elevated area from which Russian forces could Monitor and control Ukrainian movements and potentially threaten Ukraine's defense efforts secondly the industrial zone of the mine being just 2 and A2 kilm away could provide Russian forces with a very convenient location for accumulating forces and mechanized equipment enabling a direct offensive against Vadar itself however for this very same reason Ukrainian forces undoubtedly rely on the M's vast storage capacity to accumulate ammunition and personal Provisions so the seizure of the mine and its Industrial Area will certainly present huge challenges to the Russian infantry trying to gain control of it holding the mine and vladar is critical for Ukrainian forces because if Russians finally capture vladar they will open operational space behind it given the absence of significant populations and fortification lines in that area the next potential basan of the Vadar that could play a similar role would be local like nooca which is also located in the hill overall the situation around Vadar remains tense but far from critical Russian forces are making incremental progress in their encirclement attempts potentially threatening this key Ukrainian stronghold in the coming weeks however Ukrainian forces maintain not only the full logistic Supply capacity to the settlement but also every defense tactic element in order to slow down and contain these renovated Russian efforts until depletion the coming days will be crucial in determining whether Ukrainian forces can maintain their hold on vladar and the surrounding area or if Russian forces will achieve a significant breakthrough in this sector if you're against the invasion of Ukraine and you want to support the work that I am doing consider
