10.04.2022

The forty-sixth day of the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people to a russian military invasion continues.

A russian enemy continues to conduct full-scale armed aggression against Ukraine. It is trying to break through the defences of the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the city of Izyum and establish full control over the city of Mariupol. Also, russian occupiers make attempts to improve tactical position of the divisions in the Mykolayiv direction.

No significant changes in the position and activity of the russian enemy troops were recorded in the Volyn, Polissya and Siversky directions.
In the Slobozhansky direction, the russian enemy continues to partially blockade the city of Kharkiv, shelling the city using jet and barrel artillery systems and mortars. The russian occupiers are moving additional units to the city of Izyum to strengthen the group in this direction.
In the Donetsk and Tavriya operational districts, the enemy is carrying out artillery and mortar shelling in most areas. Carries out assault operations in the city of Mariupol, strikes air strikes, tries to capture the central part of the city.
In the South Buh direction, the russian enemy once again tried to establish control over the village of Olexandrivka. It was not successful. It lost to the company's tactical group of personnel and equipment.
The russian occupiers continued to fire artillery at Novovorontsovka, Maryanske, Novohryhorivka and Shevchenkove.
Due to significant sanitary losses of personnel and equipment, the invaders deployed military hospitals and repair centres for military equipment in the temporarily occupied territories of Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts. At the same time, given the constant influx of wounded servicemen of the armed forces of the russian federation, there is a shortage of qualified medical personnel in the russian occupiers' hospitals. In addition, the enemy has problems with stocks of medicines, the replenishment of which is almost impossible. Also, the personnel of repair centres to restore enemy equipment are forced to work around the clock in the absence of a stable supply of spare parts and units.
The arrival of repair and restoration crews from the territory of the russian federation (Yaroslavl region) to carry out repair and restoration works of railways in the temporarily occupied territories of the Kharkiv region is noted.
In the settlements of the Melitopol district of the Zaporizhzhia ovlast, russian invaders continue to search the homes of civilians. Check documents, the availability of road transport, food stocks. They interrogate the workplaces of close relatives and demand information about former law enforcement officers, servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, members of the Anti-Terrorist Operation / Joint Forces Operation.
In the town of Nova Kakhovka, the occupiers use the capacity of local printing houses to prepare campaign materials (brochures, booklets, posters, forms) for the so-called "referendum on the establishment of the Kherson People's Republic."
Measures of the russian occupation administrations to forcibly mobilize the population in the temporarily occupied territories are intensifying in Luhansk oblast.
In the territory of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, Ukrainian soldiers repulsed eight enemy attacks, destroyed four tanks, eight armored units and seven units of enemy vehicles.
Thirteen air targets were hit by the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine the day before: three planes, one helicopter, five UAVs and four cruise missiles.

We believe in the Armed Forces of Ukraine! Let's win together! Glory to Ukraine!
