Day 385 of the russian full-scale invasion continues. 

The russian federation does not abandon its intentions to occupy Ukraine and continues its offensive, regardless of the losses. The adversary focuses its main efforts on Lyman, Bakhmut, Avdiivka, Mar’inka, and Shakhtars’ke axes.

Due to being incapable of defeating the Ukrainian Defense Forces, the russian federation is using terror tactics. It is shelling settlements in gross violation of the rules of International Humanitarian Law.

During the day of March 15, the adversary launched 3x missile attacks, including on a civilian infrastructure facility in Kharkiv. The enemy also launched 26x air strikes and over 23x MLRS attacks.

The likelihood of further missile attacks across Ukraine remains high.

Volyn, Polissya, Sivershchyna, and Slobozhanshchyna axes: no changes, no formation of offensive groups of the enemy were found. Training of russian occupation troops at the training grounds of the republic of belarus is ongoing. The adversary maintains its military presence in the border areas. During the day of March 15, the enemy shelled the vicinities of settlements of Khrinivka (Chernihiv oblast), Atyns’ke, Volfyne, Stepne, Kindrativka, Pokrovka, Hrabovs’ke (Sumy oblast), Strilecha, Krasne, Starytsya, Vovchans’k, Bochkove, Budarky, Ambarne, and Kolodyazne (Kharkiv oblast).

Kup’yans’k and Lyman axes: the adversary does not abandon its attempts to break through the defense of Ukrainian troops. The enemy conducted unsuccessful offensive operations in the vicinities of settlements of Bilohorivka and Spirne. The invaders fired artillery at the vicinities of settlements of Dvorichna, Hryanykivka, Kup’yans’k, Krokhmal’ne (Kharkiv oblast), Novoselivs’ke, Nevs’ke, Dibrova, Bilohorivka (Luhansk), Kolodyazi, Sivers’k, Spirne, and Fedorivka (Donetsk oblast).

Bakhmut axis: the enemy continues to assault the city of Bakhmut. Ukrainian defenders repelled adversary attacks in the vicinities of settlements of Orikhovo-Vasylivka and Bohdanivka. In particular, Pryvillya, Orikhovo-Vasylivka, Hryhorivka, Bohdanivka, Bakhmut, Chasiv Yar, Predtechyne, Oleksandro-Shul’tyne, Kurdyumivka, Ozarianivka, and Shumy (Donetsk oblast) came under enemy fire.

Zaporizhzhia and Kherson axes: the adversary is defending. The enemy shelled the vicinities of settlements near the line of contact, including: Ol’hivs’ke, Malynivka, Hulyaipole, Mala Tokmachka, Novodanylivka, Novoandriivka, Kam’yans’ke (Zaporizhzhia oblast), Tokarivka, Antonivka, and the city of Kherson.

Due to being powerless against the Ukrainian Defense Forces, the occupiers are fighting against the civilians in the temporarily occupied territory of Kherson oblast. After the enemy concentrations were effectively hit over March 12-13 and the resulting heavy losses, the invaders are intensifying security measures in certain settlements. The russian occupiers usually travel in civilian cars taken from local residents. Also, a convoy of occupants carrying looted property was reported moving towards Crimea on March 14. 

In another village in Kherson oblast, the enemy is conducting counter-sabotage activities. To justify their actions, they accuse the villagers of killing a russian soldier whose body was found.

During the day of March 15, the Ukrainian Air Force launched 8x air strikes on the concentrations of occupants’ personnel and military equipment.

Also, Ukrainian units shot down 1x enemy Su-25 aircraft.

During the day of March 15, missile troops and artillery units hit 1x command post, 3x concentrations of enemy personnel and military equipment, 2x radar stations, 1x electronic warfare station, and 1x anti-aircraft missile system at its firing position.
