🫡 A precision strike by the 50th Separate Brigade "VARAG" against an enemy MiG-29 fighter. On September 9th, information was received about an enemy fighter approaching for landing in the area of the village of Vasylkiv. During reconnaissance, a thermal signature with a characteristic thermal trail was detected at the airfield. A decision was made to launch a strike.

Plenty of Ukrainian reinforcements have arrived at the Kostiantynivka axis, per my information and confirmed by Ukrainian sources.

Russian lies about the situation on the battlefield, unfortunately calls into question everything else that they are saying. And when I say "they", it's a very loose term, because Putin seems to be getting reports that are outright lies from whoever. Reports of cities and towns that were "captured". The problem seems to be the "Zapad" group. These lies are nothing new, this particular group had lied many times in the past. The command needs firing.

Ukrainian-Russian war. Day 1648-1654: 🇺🇦🇷🇺 Situation on Orikhiv front: During the last week, Russian army managed to capture a number of positions to the west & south of Charivne, increasing the pressure on Novoselivka & advancing into Chervona Krynytsya. To the south, Bilohirya has been recaptured, whilst in Mala Tokmachka the situation for Ukrainian army is critical: Russian troops, having captured the plantations south of it, are moving freely through the locality, eliminating the last remaining Ukrainian troops there. This has enabled them to step up their operations in Orikhiv, where the Russians are continuing to consolidate their positions in preparation for an assault on the town centre. This is happening whilst, from the west, Russian troops have begun reconnaissance and infiltration operations in Novopavlivka and are carrying out an encircling manoeuvre around Orikhiv.
