Day 325 of the Russian full-scale invasion continues.
Having no success on the battlefield, Russian occupants continue to destroy the infrastructure and civilian residences. The adversary launches strikes at settlements in violation of virtually all rules of International Humanitarian Law, the laws and principles of war. Thus, a Russian missile hit an apartment building in the city of Dnipro today. At the moment, 5 civilians are reported dead and 39 wounded, including 7 children. The rescue operation continues.
During the day of January 14, the adversary launched a total of 3x air strikes and about 50x missile strikes. Today, the enemy launched massive missile attacks on Ukraine. In the morning, the capital was attacked by S-400 (S-300) anti-aircraft guided missiles from the northern axis. Later, the terrorist state used high-precision weapons: airborne cruise missiles Kh-101/Kh-555, Kh-22, seaborne cruise missiles Kalibr, guided aircraft missiles Kh-59 against the critical infrastructure of Ukraine. The enemy launched a total of about 28x cruise missiles of various types and 5x guided aircraft missiles.
The forces and means of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in cooperation with the units of other elements of the Defense Forces destroyed 18x cruise missiles and 3x guided aircraft missiles. The updated figures are to follow. In addition, the occupant forces launched 50x MLRS attacks.
The threat of air and missile strikes by the enemy across Ukraine remains high.
The adversary does not abandon its intentions to completely capture Donetsk region. To do so, it focuses its main efforts on offensive operations on Bakhmut axis. Heavy battles for Soledar continue. Ukrainian forces repel enemy attacks round the clock. The occupants suffer heavy losses. The adversary is also advancing on Lyman, Avdiivka, and Novopavlivka axes. The invaders are trying to improve their tactical situation on Kupyansk axis, while defending on Zaporizhzhia and Kherson axes.
Volyn, Polissya, Sivershchyna, and Slobozhanshchyna axes: no significant changes. No offensive groups of the adversary were found. The republic of belarus continues to participate in the Russian aggression against Ukraine by allowing to use its territory and airspace for strikes, as well as ammunition and materiel.
The vicinities of settlements of Vovkivka, Kindrativka (Sumy region), Starytsya, Hatyshche, Vovchans’k, Strilecha, Ternova, Khatnje, and Topoli (Kharkiv region) were shelled with mortars and artillery.
Kup’yans’k axis: the vicinities of Dvorichna, Orlyanka, Kotlyarivka, Krokhmal’ne (Kharkiv region), Novoselivs’ke, and Stel’makhivka (Luhansk region) were shelled.
Lyman axis: the enemy fired at the vicinities of Makiivka, Nevs’ke, Kreminna, and Chervonopopivka (Luhansk region).
Bakhmut axis: Spirne, Vyimka, Bilohorivka, Soledar, Bakhmut, Druzhba, and Pivnichne (Donetsk region) were shelled.
Avdiivka axis: Krasnohorivka, Vesele, Avdiivka, Mar’inka, Vodyane, and Novomykhailivka (Donetsk region) came under enemy fire.
Novopavlivka axis: the adversary shelled Vuhledar, Prechystivka, Zolota Nyva, and Velyka Novosilka (Donetsk region).
Zaporizhzhia axis: attacks were reported near Malynivka, Hulyaipole, Dorozhnyanka, Zaliznychne, Charivne, Mala Tokmachka, Stepove, and Plavni (Zaporizhzhia region).
Kherson axis: Kherson and Dmytrivka (Mykolaiv region) were shelled with artillery and missile systems. There are civilian casualties.
Enemy redeployment on the left-bank Kherson region is aimed at strengthening the defense capabilities of its units. The movement of personnel, weapons, military equipment, and ammunition is reported.
The adversary continues to suffer casualties on a daily basis, and it shows. The manning level of certain units of the 3rd separate motorized rifle brigade of the 1st army corps located in the vicinity of Horlivka (Donetsk region) remains low, up to 40 percent. And this is despite the recent addition of mobilized and contract soldiers. It is noteworthy, that the personnel is forbidden to leave its location. This is the occupant forces’ attempt to at least somehow prevent desertion.
The Russian occupation authorities are revising the categories of conscription-age citizens who previously had the so-called “exemption†in the temporarily occupied territories of Donetsk region. In particular, employees of emergency and utility services have already been warned about this.
During the day of January 14, Ukrainian Air Force launched 5x air strikes on the concentrations of the invaders, and missile and artillery forces hit 5x concentrations and 1x ammunition depot of the enemy.
Glory to Ukraine!
