Underground "city" for the rest of Russian soldiers: footage of the fortified area near Artyomovsk recaptured from the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Artyomovsk was one of the main centers of the independent mining industry. In the vicinity of the city there is a whole network of mines and quarries that go deep underground. During the assault on this settlement, they come under the control of Russian fighters.

The Zvezda TV channel published video, which shows a fortified area recaptured from the Armed Forces of Ukraine, created in one of the quarries near Artyomovsk. In this underground "city" large stocks of provisions, medicines, weapons, however, during the attack of the "Wagnerites", the enemy, not having time to organize resistance, abandoned all materiel and fled from their positions. Now Russian soldiers are resting here, storming the city. All conveniences have been created for this: tents have been set up, a field kitchen is working, a bathhouse by an underground lake, generators provide electricity.



The enemy tried to use small-sized shock Dronesto penetrate the underground base and attack the Russian fighters resting here. In this regard, a metal mesh was stretched in front of the entrance to the quarry, which became a barrier to enemy UAVs.
The fighters were also reinsured from the sudden appearance of enemy units, setting up not only posts, but also barriers:

Everything is mined with anti-personnel mines. That is, they will not approach us unnoticed, in any case we will hear this [approach of the enemy] and react

- explained the fighter.

    Yes, Artemovsk will be a good and safe base for operations against Slavyansk and Kramatorsk. And yet, the enemy draped once they abandoned all supplies and supplies. they did not retreat in an organized manner, namely, they fled without having time to destroy or mine. Thanks to Zelensky for not giving the order to stumble until the last moment and eventually leading him to flee.

        Yeah, a dream - and they showed the entrance and the grid and said that the fighters were resting there. Well done. They tell where the concentration of troops, what they do, how and when. Fearless military correspondents and their leaders. Let's hope that the once fraternal people are also arranged and they will not have enough power to take advantage of this.

          Don't worry like that. The enemy used to be located there, and therefore he knows and understands perfectly well where our fighters will be located.
          The enemy tried to use small-sized attack drones to penetrate the underground base and attack the Russian fighters resting here.

          Note that they tried to attack even before the military correspondents reported.

            Apparently, the dungeon is located under such a layer of soil that it cannot be brought down by 220-mm, 227-mm, 300-mm RSs and 152/155-mm artillery shells ... I have heard that dungeons can stretch for many ( sometimes for tens ...) kilometers! This means that units can be dispersed even underground in quarries, mines ...

          Judging by the fact that banderlogs had already tried to attack these adits with drones even before this report was filmed, this information is hardly secret. However, I agree with you, of course, it’s not worth it to expose yourself publicly to the camera with reference to a specific place.

          But the news with details is much more interesting and inspires confidence and hope, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine probably learned about the grid before the correspondents, if they flew to the grid.

        The mesh is "of course, it's good! But I would play it safe with hanging chains with weights (as on the Merkava ...) or steel cables (cables) ... This can be found in stores, shopping centers selling hardware ...

      According to the latest data, Artyomovsk is in an operational environment.
      .The leadership of the Armed Forces of Ukraine believes that it is necessary to leave Bakhmut / Artemovsk, since the city has turned into a “meat grinder” and is perceived by the people of independence as a cursed place. After the fall of Soledar, the price of defense increased sharply due to the more accurate work of Russian artillery, which ended up on a hill. The number of "two hundredths" has doubled in recent days, which makes the defensive operation pointless. However, as the truth-tellers scribble, "Zelensky considers it necessary to continue resistance as long as it is possible to supply the city." Moreover, he demanded that new units be transferred to strengthen the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Bakhmut, which caused fury on the part of the commander-in-chief.


      . For the first time since the Kharkov offensive, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are faced with a lack of reserves, which led to the fact that near Orekhov, Hulyaipol and Vuhledar, our troops manage to push the enemy back even with modest forces, despite the seemingly multimillion-dollar mobilization reserve of Ukraine. According to information that walks on the other side front, Zaluzhny nevertheless transferred part of the troops from Bakhmut towards the South-Donetsk sector of the front. Experts noted that the Zhovto-Blakit General Staff, instead of sending fresh forces to Ugledar, was forced to return to the practice of regrouping brigades from one sector to another. a critical situation arose, close to a local encirclement, but Zaluzhny could not find additional forces for an attack on Podgornoye and Blagodatnoye to level the front. As for the southern flank, after Klescheevka, the “musicians”, having knocked out the VSUshnikov from a number of oporniks, approached the village of Ivanovskoye and the village of Stupochki.
