⚡️ (https://t.me/sitrepmaps/104)🇷🇺🇺🇦💡 @Rybar's Analysis: Russian Strikes on Ukraine's Energy System on 27 Oct 2022⚡️
🔎 Rybar's team continues its daily analysis of the consequences of systemic fire attacks on Ukraine's energy system.
💥 In 24 hours, our team has recorded two strikes:
▪️ Kievskaya 750kV substation - autotransformer hit confirmed
▪️ Belotserkovskaya 330kV substation - probable damage
🩸 Today's strike on the Kievskaya 750 substation has had a far greater impact in terms of efficiency than all previous strikes on the Kiev power grid combined.
➖ At least one single-phase 750/330kV autotransformer was destroyed. The shields separating the single-phase autotransformers from each other may have protected the other transformers from damage, but the destruction of at least one of the three renders the remaining two useless.
➖ The capacity of one autotransformer is 333 MVA: The RF Armed Forces have deprived the Kiev power district of the technical possibility of receiving 1000 MVA of capacity from the Rivne and Khmelnitsky nuclear power plants. And that is a lot.
Yes, we understand that the transformer may not have been used at 100%, but we assume that the second three single-phase transformers were damaged as a result of previous strikes (unfortunately, objective control facts are lacking).
▪️ This is a very serious blow to the Ukrainian power system. And the consequences were not slow to hit Kiev: a wave of unscheduled power cuts swept across the capital and the region.
Despite #Kiev's own sources of generation - CHP-5, CHP-6 (which also suffered from the strike and lost half of its generating capacity), and the Kiev HPP, as well as the Tripolskaya TPP in the immediate vicinity of the capital - their energy is clearly insufficient for normal operation of the energy system.
🚨 This leads to the conclusion that isolating the nuclear plants from the rest of the grid and consumers is currently the most effective scenario for influencing the Ukrainian energy system.

⚡️ (https://t.me/sitrepmaps/109)🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in #Starobelsk Direction until 16:00 on 28 Oct 2022⚡️
#Kupyansk Sector:
▪️ The enemy does not undertake any active offensive actions. Artillery duels are taking place along the line of contact.
#Svatovo Sector:
▪️ AFU units lost part of the territories near #Kuzemovka and retreated to #Berestovoye.
▪️ From the #Berestovoye area, a reinforced enemy battalion made another attempt to attack #Kuzemovka. After losing more than 10 armoured vehicles, the AFU withdrew to its initial positions.
#Lyman Sector:
▪️ Daily Ukrainian attacks towards #Krasnopovka by 2 battalion tactical groups reinforced with armoured vehicles.
▪️ In another attack attempt, the enemy was hit by Russian artillery and military aviation before retreating to a bridgehead near the #Zherebets River.
▪️ The AFU still has a reserve of at least six battalion-tactical groups at its disposal. This still allows Ukrainian commanders to rotate and try to wear down the Russian defences without regard to their own losses.
#Lysychansk Sector:
▪️There are no significant changes in the frontlines. Russian Forces continue to shell AFU positions near #Belogorovka and #Grigorovka.

Military expert Boris Rozhin on the highlights of Russia's special military operation in Ukraine as of 22.54 Moscow time on 28.10.2022 specifically for Voenkor Kotenok Z @voenkorKotenok channel:
1. Donetsk direction.
The fighting for Pervomayskoye continues. The pace of advancement is low. Attempts of enemy counterattacks near DAP and Vremyevka are repulsed.
There is no change in the area of Marinka. Basically here prevail purely positional trends. The enemy also continues to shell the Donetsk agglomeration.
2. Artemivsk direction.
Fighting for the fortification in Opytne continues. The settlement itself is under the AFU control.
Fighting continues in the industrial zone on the eastern outskirts of Artemivsk. An asphalt plant near Veselyaya Dolina is controlled by the Wagner PMC.
The enemy has undertaken limited counterattacks in the Kurdyumovka area using reserves amassed in Chasov Yar. Changes to the front line are minimal here.
3. Soledar-Siversk.
The front in this location had completely turned to positional warfare. The pace of advancement in Soledar is low. The enemy periodically counterattacks north of Soledar.
Our forces are pressing on Belogorovka.
There are positional battles near Sporny.
The AFU has not yet given up hope of attempting to break through to the Lisichansk refinery and Novodruzhsk.
4. Svatovo-Kreminnaya.
In the Krasnoliman direction there is fighting in the area of Terny and Torskoye. The enemy has strengthened its grouping here.
Torskoye is under the control of AFU.
The enemy has not abandoned its plans to move towards the Svatovo-Kreminnaya route. To the west and north-west, fighting continues. In some areas our troops slightly displaced the AFU, but in general the main task there consists in stabilize the front line so far, as the enemy continues trying to break through the front to the north-west of Svatovo using the available reserves.
5. Kherson direction.
The enemy launched a number of attacks in the Krivoy Rog and Nikopol directions, had no success and suffered losses. Overall, the situation on the front line is still quite stable, despite rumours of a possible withdrawal of Russian troops behind the Dnieper River.
The AFU command claims that Russia, on the contrary, is preparing Kherson for defence.

When I ran for mayor against Gavin, ScKamala put me in jail.
I'm conducting a one question poll link to my latest substack by my name.
Someone attacked Paul Pelosie looking for his er wife .
They seem to want to tell folks and make a big news story out of it, but not so much when he got popped for drunk driving vaxxident, but they let him go.
I wish Nazie Pelosie will stop funding wars, but I doubt she agrees...
One protest long ago had the shoes of dead Iraqis next to Feinstein house.
My friend told me a few minutes ago re when I ran against Gavin and went to jail, that I shouldn't be messing with the big boys.
Twas funny he asked had I attacked Paul.
Clearly in the news they say the guy named Dave something is in jail.
I stay away from rich folks homes, they can have those jails to themselves.
I feel bad for the rocks and trees and squirrels around them who must tolerate their Arrogance.
Lord help us.
So, Big Paul P is supposedly worth $100,000,000 or more AND is the husband of the 3rd in line to led the USA and he doesn't have a 24/7 paid (with his own coin) security detail...? I would if I had that kind of cash but I guess that's way too "Midwestern" of me to think in such practical terms...
