"Lost too much": occupiers lie about an offensive on coal - isw

According to analysts, there is no confirmation that the 155th brigade of the Marines of the Pacific Fleet of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation launched an attack on the city. Back in November 2022, it suffered great losses. The Russian military tried to create a "positive narrative", starting to talk about the attack on the coal, Donetsk region. This information operation was conducted because the occupiers did not success under Bakhmut.

Analysts of the American Institute for War Study (ISW) reported. The new report states that Russian propaganda began to spread information in large numbers that the 155th brigade of the Marines of the Pacific Fleet of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation was allegedly to break through Ukraine's defense from the carbon, as well as to move north of Pavlovka. However, the ISW analysts noted that they could not fix any confirmation that Russian troops had launched a local offensive in the bug.

It is expected that propagandists are trying to spread information about the local offensive to distract from the fact that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is not successful in the Bakhmut direction. Moreover, according to experts, the signs that the Russians again launched an offensive in the southwest of Donetsk region - no, since they spent too much strength in November, having suffered great losses.

"The 155th Marines Brigade had previously been degraded during offensive operations in the carbon area in November 2022 and is unlikely to be able to restore a new offensive at this front of the front," the statement said. According to analysts, even if Russian troops are really trying to attack the coal, then it will not lead to anything. Earlier, Focus wrote that the Armed Forces had destroyed the barracks of Russian troops in Mariupol.

According to the mayor of the city of Petro Andryushchenko, on January 24, the Armed Forces hit the occupiers in a captured city twice: in the morning and in the evening. The CNS also stated that Russia wants to mobilize deported Ukrainians to the war. To this end, they claim in the center, the day before Russia conducted forced certification of Ukrainians in the occupied territories. We will also remind that CNN journalists stated that the event advises Kiev to switch attention from Bakhmut.
