This timeline was prepared by the InformNapalm team and was based on the information from our insiders in\u00a0the occupied territories, as well as the information from public sources.<\/p>\n

Sector “C”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Donetsk<\/strong><\/p>\n

00:50 Clashes utilizing tanks and mortars took place on the outskirts of Donetsk in Petrovsky District, Trudivske village.<\/p>\n

1:00 – 1:40 Militants used howitzers and mortars to shell Ukrainian positions.<\/p>\n

10:54 \u00a0A\u00a0military trailer\u00a0with the license plate \u0434\u043a3406, transporting\u00a0a\u00a0tank, was observed\u00a0at the Samoylova bus stop.<\/p>\n

13:15 -14:20 Militants carried out an active “field training”. During the training a spoil heap of Kuibyshevska\u00a0mine (Azotnyi area) was shelled.<\/p>\n

15:00 DNR organized a concert with the participation of Russian performers\u00a0in Lenin Square. Large numbers\u00a0of terrorists from the Vostok, Sparta, and Somali battalions\u00a0gathered\u00a0there.<\/p>\n

17:10 A convoy\u00a0of militants’ weaponry passed toward Peski. It included 2 Ural trucks, 2 MTLB APCs,\u00a0and 1 BTR APC.<\/p>\n

19:20 Small arms fire was heard in the vicinity of Donetsk airport.<\/p>\n

Insiders from Peski reported that militants came closer to the Ukrainian positions and shelled them with\u00a080 and 120 mm mortars.<\/p>\n

Shakhtarsk<\/strong><\/p>\n

00:30 – 1:30 A vehicle convoy\u00a0including 30 covered KAMAZ and Ural trucks headed towards Donetsk.<\/p>\n

7:15 10 covered trucks\u00a0headed towards Torez, towing 5 MSTA-B 152 mm howitzers, field kitchens, and generators.<\/p>\n

18:27 Militants used a tractor trailer to move\u00a0a 2C5 Giatsint-S howitzer in the direction of Torez.<\/p>\n

19:00 6 covered trucks\u00a0towing MSTA-B howitzers headed to Donetsk.<\/p>\n

22:40 About 10 covered trucks\u00a0were moving in the direction of Donetsk.<\/p>\n

Torez<\/strong><\/p>\n

12:00 Russian instructors trained newly recruited\u00a0militants at a firing range\u00a0near Torez. The recruits are being trained to operate Grad MLRS.<\/p>\n

Yenakiyeve<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the area near Motodrom \u200b\u200bmilitants deployed 4 communications systems\u00a0based on GAZ-66 trucks\u00a0and\u00a0installed 4 antennas.<\/p>\n

Horlivka<\/strong><\/p>\n

Active movement of weaponry of illegal armed formations\u00a0was observed\u00a0in the city. This suggests the possibility of preparations for active combat.<\/p>\n

14:20 3 BMP-2 IFVs and 1 covered Ural with militants headed trough Mykytivka\u00a0village towards Holmovskyy village.<\/p>\n

15:30 Several militant Grad MLRS were observed\u00a0heading towards the “6-7” settlement (coordinates: 48\u00b022’36″N 37\u00b057’49 E).<\/p>\n

19:00 8 BMPs and 2 covered Urals proceeded towards Mykytivka village. Each BMP had\u00a0up to 5-7 terrorists riding on top of it.<\/p>\n

19:24 3 terrorist tanks were shelling Ukrainian positions from the Kurhanka residential area of Komarovo.<\/p>\n

20:00 A UAV was seen in the Kurhanka residential area and near the “6-7” settlement.<\/p>\n

23:00 Terrorists shelled Mayorsk with heavy weapons, including MLRS, from the Besarabka neighborhood (48\u00b021’30 “N 38\u00b00’16″E), the Machine-Building Plant, and the area\u00a0of the 5th district.<\/p>\n

Sector “A”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Antratsyt<\/strong><\/p>\n

Security has been strengthened\u00a0in the courtyard of the mine rescue unit facility,\u00a0where militants have been based: webcams have been installed around the perimeter, extra flood lights have been mounted on the back side of the main\u00a0building (near the cemetery), and a small radar has been installed on\u00a0the rooftop of the building.<\/p>\n

Stakhanov<\/strong><\/p>\n

8:30 A convoy\u00a0of terrorist armor passed from the Romashka area\u00a0towards Kirovsk.<\/p>\n

There is a frequent movement of weaponry in both directions. Large reserves of fuel and lubricants are being consumed\u00a0to carry out these maneuvers. This is done to simulate a large\u00a0scale activity in the area.<\/p>\n

Bryanka<\/strong><\/p>\n

2 convoys of\u00a0illegal armed formations’ armor\u00a0passed through the city within\u00a0the\u00a024 hours.<\/p>\n

Kirovsk<\/strong><\/p>\n

The largest concentration of terrorist armor was detected in the vicinity of the cities of\u00a0Stakhanov and Kirovsk. According to preliminary data, there are about 40 tanks there. Heavy weapons keep arriving in\u00a0Kirovsk. Over 15 Grad MLRS have arrived in the city recently. Ammunition is being delivered around the clock.<\/p>\n

Luhansk<\/strong><\/p>\n

Train stations in the south of Luhansk Oblast\u00a0are being gradually transformed into unloading terminals for the terrorists’ supplies. The arrival and unloading of trains from Russia is done at the average\u00a0rate\u00a0of 6-8 cars\u00a0per\u00a0day.<\/p>\n

Over the past two days, a large\u00a0number of Russian weaponry has been concentrated in the courtyard on Oboronna street opposite the Mafia cafe, where messing for Russian regular troops\u00a0was set up. Covered vehicles are parked\u00a0on the tram tracks. A lot of young conscripts of the Russian Armed Forces have arrived in the city. Unlike ordinary mercenaries and terrorists from LNR, they wear Russian Army regulation white undercollars on their uniforms. Upon arrival, many of them were seen\u00a0buying SIM cards of local mobile providers.<\/p>\n

It is worth noting\u00a0that in conversations with local civilians the newly arrived “green men” complained that unknown attackers shot at them for two nights in a\u00a0row. Since there is no additional data on special operations in the area, one can assume that the new arrivals are being subjected to psychological\u00a0manipulation, to make them believe\u00a0in potential attacks of Ukrainian forces.<\/p>\n

An interesting observation: portraits of Putin are now being sold in Luhansk\u00a0central market. Bears with balalaika and gypsies have not yet been delivered.<\/p>\n

Sverdlovsk<\/strong><\/p>\n

14:00 Up to 5 units of tracked vehicles\u00a0arrived from the direction of Krasnodon. The convoy allegedly included a Strela-10 SAM.<\/p>\n

Krasnodon and Izvarine border crossing\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The transit\u00a0of large convoys of armored vehicles\u00a0from Russia is\u00a0constantly observed at\u00a0the Russian-Ukrainian border crossing, which is controlled by the Russian side and LNR militants.<\/p>\n

Firing ranges in the quarry\u00a0near the settlements of Uralo-Kavkaz and Nyzhnoderevechka of Krasnodon raion\u00a0are used to conduct target practice. Since Krasnodon is the main transit point from the Izvarine border crossing, the situation in the city is controlled by the Russian FSB. LNR militants have no control over the city.<\/p>\n

Sectors “B” and “M”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Novozarivka<\/strong><\/p>\n

At night, 2 militants from illegal armed formations,\u00a0while under the influence of alcohol, were blown up by\u00a0their own grenade.<\/p>\n

A small group of DNR terrorists counting\u00a030 to 40 militants is located in the village.<\/p>\n

Shyrokyne<\/strong><\/p>\n

20:00 Once again terrorists opened fire on the positions of the Ukrainian forces. Supported\u00a0by 80 and 120-mm mortars, militants also delivered small arms fire.<\/p>\n

Bezymenne<\/strong><\/p>\n

Covert ammunition unloading was carried out. A serious conflict arose between recruited mercenaries and terrorists of the Somali battalion. One of the locals, while intoxicated, killed one of the DNR terrorists. He has been\u00a0arrested and most likely\u00a0will be executed by a firing squad.<\/p>\n

In the village, there are\u00a0militants of the Somali battalion, providing\u00a0artillery and mortars, and the\u00a0Sparta battalion, which facilitate the activities of sabotage-reconnaissance groups and infantry operations. These are Russian mercenaries with an extensive experience in military operations abroad. They are well-equipped and disciplined. After Ukraine they plan to go on rotation to Syria. They have taken under control all patrols and observation posts, as well as fishermen’s trips out to\u00a0sea.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/strong>: Active movement and concentration of enemy forces is being observed in all sectors of the ATO zone. Russian militants continue firing on\u00a0the positions of Ukrainian forces, including\u00a0using heavy weapons, which\u00a0is a direct violation of Minsk agreements.<\/p>\n

The accumulation of the most effective and professional units is noted in\u00a0the Mariupol direction. A large concentration of forces has been\u00a0detected in the area of Alchevsk-Stakhanov-Kirov and Horlivka.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the second line\u00a0is being actively\u00a0replenished and strengthened\u00a0by conscripts and soldiers of the Russian Armed Forces. Preparations\u00a0and training exercises continue in the territory controlled by illegal armed formations.<\/p>\n

During the training a spoil heap of Kuibyshevska\u00a0mine (Azotnyi area) was shelled.<\/p>\r\n<p>15:00 DNR organized a concert with the participation of Russian performers\u00a0in Lenin Square. Large numbers\u00a0of terrorists from the Vostok, Sparta, and Somali battalions\u00a0gathered\u00a0there.<\/p>\r\n<p>17:10 A convoy\u00a0of militants' weaponry passed toward Peski. It included 2 Ural trucks, 2 MTLB APCs,\u00a0and 1 BTR APC.<\/p>\r\n<p>19:20 Small arms fire was heard in the vicinity of Donetsk airport.<\/p>\r\n<p>Insiders from Peski reported that militants came closer to the Ukrainian positions and shelled them with\u00a080 and 120 mm mortars.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Shakhtarsk<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>00:30 - 1:30 A vehicle convoy\u00a0including 30 covered KAMAZ and Ural trucks headed towards Donetsk.<\/p>\r\n<p>7:15 10 covered trucks\u00a0headed towards Torez, towing 5 MSTA-B 152 mm howitzers, field kitchens, and generators.<\/p>\r\n<p>18:27 Militants used a tractor trailer to move\u00a0a 2C5 Giatsint-S howitzer in the direction of Torez.<\/p>\r\n<p>19:00 6 covered trucks\u00a0towing MSTA-B howitzers headed to Donetsk.<\/p>\r\n<p>22:40 About 10 covered trucks\u00a0were moving in the direction of Donetsk.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Torez<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>12:00 Russian instructors trained newly recruited\u00a0militants at a firing range\u00a0near Torez. The recruits are being trained to operate Grad MLRS.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Yenakiyeve<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>In the area near Motodrom \u200b\u200bmilitants deployed 4 communications systems\u00a0based on GAZ-66 trucks\u00a0and\u00a0installed 4 antennas.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Horlivka<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Active movement of weaponry of illegal armed formations\u00a0was observed\u00a0in the city. This suggests the possibility of preparations for active combat.<\/p>\r\n<p>14:20 3 BMP-2 IFVs and 1 covered Ural with militants headed trough Mykytivka\u00a0village towards Holmovskyy village.<\/p>\r\n<p>15:30 Several militant Grad MLRS were observed\u00a0heading towards the \"6-7\" settlement (coordinates: 48\u00b022'36\"N 37\u00b057'49 E).<\/p>\r\n<p>19:00 8 BMPs and 2 covered Urals proceeded towards Mykytivka village. Each BMP had\u00a0up to 5-7 terrorists riding on top of it.<\/p>\r\n<p>19:24 3 terrorist tanks were shelling Ukrainian positions from the Kurhanka residential area of Komarovo.<\/p>\r\n<p>20:00 A UAV was seen in the Kurhanka residential area and near the \"6-7\" settlement.<\/p>\r\n<p>23:00 Terrorists shelled Mayorsk with heavy weapons, including MLRS, from the Besarabka neighborhood (48\u00b021'30 \"N 38\u00b00'16\"E), the Machine-Building Plant, and the area\u00a0of the 5th district.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Sector \"A\"<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Antratsyt<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Security has been strengthened\u00a0in the courtyard of the mine rescue unit facility,\u00a0where militants have been based: webcams have been installed around the perimeter, extra flood lights have been mounted on the back side of the main\u00a0building (near the cemetery), and a small radar has been installed on\u00a0the rooftop of the building.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Stakhanov<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>8:30 A convoy\u00a0of terrorist armor passed from the Romashka area\u00a0towards Kirovsk.<\/p>\r\n<p>There is a frequent movement of weaponry in both directions. Large reserves of fuel and lubricants are being consumed\u00a0to carry out these maneuvers. This is done to simulate a large\u00a0scale activity in the area.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Bryanka<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>2 convoys of\u00a0illegal armed formations' armor\u00a0passed through the city within\u00a0the\u00a024 hours.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Kirovsk<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>The largest concentration of terrorist armor was detected in the vicinity of the cities of\u00a0Stakhanov and Kirovsk. According to preliminary data, there are about 40 tanks there. Heavy weapons keep arriving in\u00a0Kirovsk. Over 15 Grad MLRS have arrived in the city recently. Ammunition is being delivered around the clock.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Luhansk<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Train stations in the south of Luhansk Oblast\u00a0are being gradually transformed into unloading terminals for the terrorists' supplies. The arrival and unloading of trains from Russia is done at the average\u00a0rate\u00a0of 6-8 cars\u00a0per\u00a0day.<\/p>\r\n<p>Over the past two days, a large\u00a0number of Russian weaponry has been concentrated in the courtyard on Oboronna street opposite the Mafia cafe, where messing for Russian regular troops\u00a0was set up. Covered vehicles are parked\u00a0on the tram tracks. A lot of young conscripts of the Russian Armed Forces have arrived in the city. Unlike ordinary mercenaries and terrorists from LNR, they wear Russian Army regulation white undercollars on their uniforms. Upon arrival, many of them were seen\u00a0buying SIM cards of local mobile providers.<\/p>\r\n<p>It is worth noting\u00a0that in conversations with local civilians the newly arrived \"green men\" complained that unknown attackers shot at them for two nights in a\u00a0row. Since there is no additional data on special operations in the area, one can assume that the new arrivals are being subjected to psychological\u00a0manipulation, to make them believe\u00a0in potential attacks of Ukrainian forces.<\/p>\r\n<p>An interesting observation: portraits of Putin are now being sold in Luhansk\u00a0central market. Bears with balalaika and gypsies have not yet been delivered.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Sverdlovsk<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>14:00 Up to 5 units of tracked vehicles\u00a0arrived from the direction of Krasnodon. The convoy allegedly included a Strela-10 SAM.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Krasnodon and Izvarine border crossing\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>The transit\u00a0of large convoys of armored vehicles\u00a0from Russia is\u00a0constantly observed at\u00a0the Russian-Ukrainian border crossing, which is controlled by the Russian side and LNR militants.<\/p>\r\n<p>Firing ranges in the quarry\u00a0near the settlements of Uralo-Kavkaz and Nyzhnoderevechka of Krasnodon raion\u00a0are used to conduct target practice. Since Krasnodon is the main transit point from the Izvarine border crossing, the situation in the city is controlled by the Russian FSB. LNR militants have no control over the city.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Sectors \"B\" and \"M\"<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Novozarivka<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>At night, 2 militants from illegal armed formations,\u00a0while under the influence of alcohol, were blown up by\u00a0their own grenade.<\/p>\r\n<p>A small group of DNR terrorists counting\u00a030 to 40 militants is located in the village.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Shyrokyne<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>20:00 Once again terrorists opened fire on the positions of the Ukrainian forces. Supported\u00a0by 80 and 120-mm mortars, militants also delivered small arms fire.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Bezymenne<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Covert ammunition unloading was carried out. A serious conflict arose between recruited mercenaries and terrorists of the Somali battalion. One of the locals, while intoxicated, killed one of the DNR terrorists. He has been\u00a0arrested and most likely\u00a0will be executed by a firing squad.<\/p>\r\n<p>In the village, there are\u00a0militants of the Somali battalion, providing\u00a0artillery and mortars, and the\u00a0Sparta battalion, which facilitate the activities of sabotage-reconnaissance groups and infantry operations. These are Russian mercenaries with an extensive experience in military operations abroad. They are well-equipped and disciplined. After Ukraine they plan to go on rotation to Syria. They have taken under control all patrols and observation posts, as well as fishermen's trips out to\u00a0sea.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong>: Active movement and concentration of enemy forces is being observed in all sectors of the ATO zone. Russian militants continue firing on\u00a0the positions of Ukrainian forces, including\u00a0using heavy weapons, which\u00a0is a direct violation of Minsk agreements.<\/p>\r\n<p>The accumulation of the most effective and professional units is noted in\u00a0the Mariupol direction. A large concentration of forces has been\u00a0detected in the area of Alchevsk-Stakhanov-Kirov and Horlivka.<\/p>\r\n<p>At the same time, the second line\u00a0is being actively\u00a0replenished and strengthened\u00a0by conscripts and soldiers of the Russian Armed Forces. Preparations\u00a0and training exercises continue in the territory controlled by illegal armed formations.<\/p>\r\n<p> <\/p>\r\n<p>(C) This information was prepared specifically for InformNapalm, reprinting and any\u00a0use of this report must include a link to our project.<\/p>\r\n<p>Translated by Private.<\/p>\r\n<p>Edited by Max Alginin.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u0420\u0443\u0441\u0441\u043a\u0438\u0439:\u00a0https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/8412-hronyka-sobytyj-v-zone-ato-za-24-04-15<\/p>\r\n","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4044","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4044"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4044\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4057,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4044\/revisions\/4057"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4030"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4044"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4044"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4044"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
