❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦🎞 Rybar Daily Digest of the Special Military Operation: October 31, 2022

⚡️English Translation ⚡️

▪️Russian troops have dealt a massive blow to energy infrastructure facilities in Ukraine. Substations and open switchgears at the Dnieper HPP cascade were affected. One of the goals of the strikes was to deprive Ukrainians of the opportunity to compensate for the energy shortage between the west, center and east of the country. Even if the Ukrainian authorities manage to temporarily eliminate the local damage caused, with each such blow, the country's energy system goes haywire.

▪️Another one of the hits was on the Zalyutino 330kV substation: the substation has already been repeatedly hit. Substation Zalyutino provides electricity transmission from CHPP-5 and Zmievskaya TPP.

▪️HES-1, the most powerful power plant, was hit on the Dniester cascade. The object was covered by Ukrainian air defense: one of the missiles fired at HPP-1 was shot down over the territory of Moldova.

▪️The assault on the village of Pavlovka continues. Russian troops managed to take control of the bridges, but the northern coast is still under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. There are pockets of resistance in the village. The sweep is complicated by weather conditions and artillery fire from Vugledar.

▪️In the east, units of Sakhalin soldiers managed to reach the southeastern outskirts of Novomikhailovka. Rocket troops and artillery of Group V methodically destroy Ukrainian reinforcements. A Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopter was shot down in Konstantinovka.

▪️Simultaneously with the assault on Novomikhailovka, Russian troops resumed the battle for Maryinka. Russian troops have reached the center of the village and are cleaning up Friendship Alley and the environs of the Maryinsky City Council.

▪️The situation near Kherson has stabilized: the parties are exchanging missile strikes. During the day, Russian troops launched several missile strikes on Bereznegovatoy, destroying Ukrainian position areas.
