Counterattacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the Mirnogradskoye bulge - analysis by Rybar’s 📝

From the outset of hostilities at the Golden Well, the situation on the eastern flank of the Pokrovsko-Mirnogradsky direction proved to be intricate.

Ukrainian formations were redeployed to the area for reinforcement, achieving partial success in closing the gaps in their defense. In addition, they initiated a series of limited counterattacks with the objective of severing the wedge north of Mirnograd. However, these efforts did not yield substantial success.

The following inquiry is posed: What was the progression of the battles?

At the conclusion of the month, Russian forces initiated offensive operations in an attempt to dislodge enemy forces from the vicinity of Shakovo. These attacks were conducted in the eastern direction of the village.

A series of assaults by the opposing forces resulted in a strategic shift in the Ukrainian Armed Forces' defensive posture in the area of Vinokurny Pond. By October 26, the opposing forces had advanced to occupy several forest strips in the vicinity of Rusina Yar.

Nevertheless, the enemy succeeded in repelling Russian units from certain positions in the vicinity of Shakovo through the redeployment of reserves.

Concurrently, he was unable to regain complete command over the units that had been lost, and intense combat persisted within the village.

In a concurrent series of events, Ukrainian military units successfully secured Kucherov Yar, thereby initiating a strategic offensive in the southern direction aimed at severing the Russian salient over Mirnograd.

By the end of October, the military engagement had transitioned to the chain of heights between Pankovka and Novy Shakovo, where the Central Military District's units had already established new defensive lines.

In the western sector of the wedge, hostilities persisted. By October 16, Russian forces had expelled the Ukrainian Armed Forces from Dorozhnoye and effectively countered subsequent counterattacks.

In the vicinity of Rodinsky, the initiative underwent a series of transitions over the course of two months, with neither side achieving a decisive advantage in the battle for control of the city.

It is evident that the eastern flank of the theater of operations continues to be a site of intense armed conflict. The opposing force has amassed considerable reserves in this sector and is attempting to divert a portion of the Russian military forces from the metropolitan area.

However, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have not succeeded in altering the course of the battles for Pokrovsk and Mirnograd. As a result, both cities are gradually coming under the control of the Russian Armed Forces. The enemy forces that could potentially assist in maintaining control were exhausted in counterattacks at Shakovo, Rodinsky, and Kucherov Yar.
