Heavy fighting continues on several front sectors in Ukraine: according to British intelligence experts, the Ukrainian army retains the initiative in most areas. The Russian troops were probably ordered to attack as soon as possible.

Russian military correspondents and war bloggers also report serious attacks, particularly in the Zaporizhia region. The telegram channel «Sladkov+» writes: «The offensive has begun. (…) I wish the men in the trenches steadfastness. We are not sleeping.” The Russian army has the advantage that many generals, officers and combatants are experienced. “Although new troops are approaching the enemy, many of them have not yet felt the real fire,” says one post. two, sleep and fatigue will exhaust you, and willpower will not help.”

“Sladkov+” adds: “We hit everything that approaches our limits.” There are no breakthroughs, the mood is belligerent, there are enough shells, the planes work. “Everything is going according to our plan,” the blogger, who has more than a million followers, is sure. But he also reports that Ukrainian tanks are approaching. “The enemy is advancing in waves,” said a message Thursday morning. The information could not be independently verified.

“Such a movement at the front hasn’t happened for a long time”

There are also reports about the Ukrainian attacks on the “Zapiski Veterana” telegram channel: “I think we can now talk about the start of the long-announced Ukrainian offensive. There hasn’t been such a movement at the front for a long time.” The war blogger also wrote to the Russian army: “Let’s go, good luck to everyone!”

The military correspondents on the Telegram channel “Operazija Z” confirm the statements: “The enemy is advancing on the front of Zaporizhia,” according to a post on Thursday morning. The Ukrainian army advances with tanks, including German Leopard tanks. In addition, the bloggers would have posted photos of the front. The photos are confirmation that the enemy is using NATO tanks.

For hours there were grenade and artillery attacks on the Russian positions. Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin also said in a video published on the Telegram channel that Ukraine had started its counter-offensive. “How Russia handles it, we will see in the near future.”

Zelenskyj: “You will feel it”

On Wednesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi told “Welt”, “Bild” and “Politico”: “You will feel it” when the offensive begins. “When you see and feel it, you have understood that it has begun.”

Ukrainian Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Maljar wrote on Telegram on Wednesday: “Towards Bakhmut, our forces have switched from defense to offensive.” Since Tuesday, friendly troops have advanced between 200 and 1,100 meters at several points in the eastern Ukrainian region of Donetsk. Russia’s defense ministry has confirmed eight Ukrainian attempts to attack Bakhmut, but said it repelled all of them. The information provided by both warring parties cannot often be independently verified.
