The Lancet destroyed an American made M-777 howitzer in the NVO zone .
The paratroopers launched the UAV - they guided it and escorted it to the target in manual mode. This eliminates even the slightest deviation from the course.
AFU Offensive in Starobilsk direction
Chronicle of Battles, October 21-25, 2022
▪️Having been defeated in the battles for Horobivka, the Ukrainian units turned to defense north of Kupyansk. Territorial defense units were redeployed to the front lines. After repeated attempts to storm the heights in the Kyslivka — Orlyanske area, the AFU was tasked with flanking the fortified area.
▪️Having carried out contact reconnaissance, the AFU attempted to take Russian positions in Pervomaiske — Orlyanske and Berestove — Kuzemivka sections.
▪️The direction of the AFU main attack was from Makiivka in the direction of Chervonopopivka. On October 21, up to three Ukrainian 66th Separate Brigade’s battalion task groups, reinforced with armored vehicles, attempted to break the defense line of the Russian 20th Army and reach the road Svatove — Kreminna, but the attempt failed.
For two days, Ukrainian units kept trying to consolidate on the heights between Makiivka and Chervonopopivka, but were forced to retreat under artillery fire, suffering heavy losses in manpower and equipment.
▪️Ukrainian units failed to expand the staging point towards Nevske. After 4 days of fighting, the AFU units lost their offensive potential. Now they stsand in need of rotation and reinforcements.
▪️The territorial defense units in the AFU rear near Borova and Kupyansk suffered significant losses from the Russian Armed Forces’ artillery fire.
▪️The AFU command moved a reserve of mercenary units and Western PMCs to Lyman to task less Ukrainian units and replenish the advancing group.
?Most likely, in the future, Ukrainian units will try to occupy heights at the Kyslivka — Orlyanske line and reach Verkhnya Duvanka with a subsequent breakthrough to Belgorod region borders and block the supply of the Russian Armed Forces in Svatove.

The work of the Russian MLRS on the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Georgievka
The footage from the Tankers of the Southern Military District @tankist4 captures the moment of operation of the Russian multiple launch rocket system "Grad" in the village of Georgievka, located near the strategically important village of Maryinka.
Judging by the area of destruction of the private sector, the blow was delivered on the accumulation of enemy personnel and equipment in Georgievka.
Tense battles are going on in Marinka itself. Assault units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the People's Militia of the DPR are moving towards Druzhby Avenue. The western part of the settlement is still under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The defeat of the Ukrainian BMP near Vuhledar
The calculation of the Russian UAV discovered the Ukrainian BMP-1 of the Armed Forces of Ukraine moving into position: the enemy planned to open fire on the western outskirts of Vladimirovka.
An infantry fighting vehicle that reached the line of opening fire was hit by an artillery crew of the RF Armed Forces with high-precision ammunition.
Most likely, the Krasnopol corrected projectile was used to disable enemy equipment.
There's no legal framework for #EU to recognise a State Sponsor of Terrorism - Even the #US have refused to apply label to Russia. The idea that anyone from a blood-drenched #NATO State would label anyone else a sponsor of Terrorism before calling out their own State, is absurd..Mick Wallace
Ireland ?? ☘️????
Ukrainian gymnasts from the 36th brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine attempt the triple front flip but can't stick the landing.
That or Russian artillery just crushed another Ukro militia boat on a stupid TikTok adventure.
Blinken's reaction when Biden says Xi Jinping is a dictator.
Jinping. Who is currently Biden's guest.... a classy statesman indeed.
Look at Blinkens face "OMG" (one year of requests and begging the Chinese and Xi for a meeting) while Biden is talking (destroying) and acting tough, he just can't shut up or THINK ??♂️!
A real Statesman ?
