The summary of the 58th day of Russian invasion to Ukraine, as of 22:00 – 22nd of April 2022 (Kyiv time).
Russian forces have captured a dozen of settlements in the direction of Slovyansk. Ukrainian reinforcements and guns supplied by the west are being moved to eastern Ukraine in mass. Most noticeable are manpads, Ukrainian soldiers downed at least five air targets during the last two days, including Ka-52 attack helicopter.
Kharkiv Frontline
includes the area of Kharkiv and Chuhuiv
Russian army shelled Udy (north of Zolochiv), which indicates the town is under Ukrainian control. It seems that Ukrainian troops are slowly and quietly advancing alongside the Russian border in the north.
Siverskyi Donets
includes the area of Slovyansk, Kramatorsk and Bakhmut
Russian elements assaulted Ukrainian positions near Zavody and Diborvne. The defenders repulsed both attacks.
The enemy have advanced south of Borova and captured Lozove and Zelena Dolyna, securing the northern gap. Heavy fighting was reported from Zarichne, where Russian army is attacking from two sides – Terny and Kreminna. Ukrainian command is aware of the worsening situation in the area and prepares to withdraw its forces behind Siverskyi Donets river if needed.
The situation in Popasna is complicated, but Ukrainian soldiers are holding all key positions. Same for Novotoshkivske.

includes Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia Oblast

Russian elements have reached Malynivka, but it remains unclear if Ukrainian forces are still in control of the village, or they withdrew to the north.

Very good, pushing Russian away from Kharkiv will liberate Ukr forces to move on Izium. Seems than Russia has no more intention to take Kharkiv at all, to focus on Donbass. One front less to defend and Kharkiv will be able to be used as… Read more »
Well, no, it’s still next to Belgorod, the orcish army capital. Ukraine won’t dare to pull troops away from that border.

For me it works perfectly all maps. Firefox on Linux.
Could you please send me details to info(at)militaryland.net and include screenshots if possible?
