Offensive near the village of Peski
situation at 14.00 October 4, 2022

By @Rybar:

🔻Against the backdrop of the subsidence of fronts in the Liman-Kupyansk and Nikolaev-Kryvyi Rih directions, the situation near Donetsk for Russian troops is only improving: assault groups continue to expand the zone of control around the village of Peski and Donetsk airport.

▪️As a result of the successful offensive, units of the 1st Army Corps of the NM of the DPR managed to occupy the territory of the village of Pervomayskoye in the area up to the multi-storey buildings and the turn to Vodiane.

The offensive was preceded by almost a month of fierce positional battles and artillery duels. The Armed Forces of Ukraine made repeated unsuccessful attempts to counterattack on the positions of the NM of the DPR near the village of Peski. Significant losses in manpower and equipment led to a weakening of the enemy's combat capability in this sector of the front.

▪️The final cleansing of the village of Pervomaiskoye will make it possible to cut off the supply route of the grouping in Nevelskoye: the enemy’s advanced artillery positions are located in the village. In this case, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be forced to retreat from the village.

▪️Advancement to the north to Vodyanoye and Opytnoye will allow developing a further offensive on Orlovskoye in order to encircle the Avdeevsky fortified area. It is from here that the Armed Forces of Ukraine conduct daily shelling of residential areas of the cities of the Donetsk agglomeration.
