Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[NewsFront] 21:00 The Urazovo village of the Valuysky urban district came under fire from the Armed Forces of Ukraine - Governor of the Belgorod Region Gladkov

There were no casualties. A commission for the inspection and assessment of damage is working on the spot.

21:00 In Ukraine, from October 1, female doctors and pharmacists will be required to register with the military.

19:45 The situation on the fronts, a summary of the NWO:

Artyomovskoe direction, northern flank Today, our army carried out a number of counterattacks in the Orekhovo-Vasilyevo area. Three strongholds of the enemy came under the control of our army.

Svatovo-Kremenskoye direction. Today, our army has continued to build on the success of the west of Novoegorovka and Sverdlovka. 5 oporniks and 3 enemy observation posts were taken.

18:44 A resident of Stakhanov was wounded as a result of shelling from the Armed Forces of Ukraine, TASS reports with reference to the operational services of the region.

18:14 Destruction the first British Challenger 2 tank from the Kornet ATGM. Zaporozhye region. Rabotino / Willow.

At 6 am, the Armed Forces of Ukraine attempted to attack our positions using 2 tanks and 3 armored vehicles. Having left on the road, our artillery began to work on moving equipment. But the attack bogged down when the “never destroyed tank” received a 152 mm guided missile under the turret.

It is noteworthy that the Challenger burned for more than a day. The reason for such a long burning could be uranium ammunition.

17:46 Vladimir Rogov said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Rabotino could not advance beyond the ruins of a school in the central part of the village. The rest of the center and the southern part of Rabotino is a gray zone. Positions of the RF Armed Forces on the southern outskirts. In general - a complete repetition of Pyatikhatok.

Apparently, reports of the complete abandonment of Rabotino arose from Balitsky's message, which he made after our units that launched the counterattack retreated to their original positions. The Russian Defense Ministry specifically focused on this this morning when it stated that the tactical situation had not changed - during yesterday's counterattacks, the enemy was driven out of the southern part of Rabotino, where he was trying to gain a foothold. After that, our troops returned to their previous positions due to difficulties in securing a foothold in the destroyed village.

For us, it is most beneficial to further prolong the viscous battles in Rabotino and around it, since the enemy is losing strength and time here.

The enemy, in turn, strives to solve the Rabotino problem at any cost, extricate himself from the viscous positional battles and rush south in the direction of Tokmak. As the reserve brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Rabotino area are depleted, it will become more and more difficult to do this. Soon the rains will begin, and there will be mudslides, which will create additional difficulties for the enemy in an already bleak situation with a failed operational-strategic offensive plan.

17:28 Ukrainian "Bayraktar" was shot down in the vicinity of Zmeiny Island. The drone was destroyed by a Russian Aerospace Forces fighter. Earlier, Ukrainian resources reported on the activity of Russian Su-34s in the Zmeinoye area.

16:40 Vremyevsky section situation as of 16.00 September 6, 2023

Since yesterday, the activation of the enemy on the right flank of the Vremievsky sector has continued. From the side of the Zolotaya Niva - Prechistovka line, the forces of the 38th infantry regiment again tried to attack Novodonetskoye and Novomayorskoye. Ukrainian formations lost three armored vehicles and rolled back.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine do not yet use large forces in roll-overs, limiting themselves to maneuverable groups. However, massive artillery preparation and accumulation of personnel can serve as a sign of an approaching offensive in this direction.

On the left flank of the RF Armed Forces, artillery strikes were carried out against the enemy's concentration in Urozhainoye and to the east of the village, disrupting the rotation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The concentration of TRO detachments continues in the Priyutnoye area, where mutual shelling has been going on for the past few days, as well as in the Olgovskoye and Malinovka areas, which may also indicate that Ukrainian formations are preparing for coordinated attacks.

16:10 Consequences shelling of Volnovakha by Ukrainian militants, as a result of which two women were injured.

15:50 The Ukrainian army hit Konstantinovka from a plane (a city in the DPR, is under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine). eyewitnesses sawstartrockets from an aircraft of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Druzhkovka area. According to preliminary information, there are many victims, dead and wounded at the impact site.

15:37 The AFU militants fired at the residential area of ​​Stakhanov in the LPR.

15:20 Orekhovsky area situation as of 15.00 September 6, 2023

Fierce fighting continues on the Rabotino-Verbovoye line. In recent weeks, control over positions in the village has changed hands for the fifth time. The settlement itself is practically destroyed and for the most part is located in the gray zone. However, the Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to try to advance to the southern outskirts and break through to Novoprokopovka, using the tactics of "meat assault".

That night, Russian units, due to the lack of tactical sense to defend the destroyed houses in the village, withdrew to prepared positions on the southern outskirts - for convenience, we marked the main fortified areas on the map.

The situation in Rabotino to some extent repeats the assault on Pyatikhatki - the Armed Forces of Ukraine occupied the settlement, but left it several times, unable to withstand the fire of artillery and aviation from the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Such a "creeping" advance, accompanied by the complete destruction of the buildings in the village and the oporniks, on which you can defend yourself, costs the Ukrainian formations heavy losses.

At the same time, the enemy is moving additional units to Verbovoy, clearly hoping that it will be easier to break through to the west of the settlement than to storm the heights in the south near Rabotino. However, night attacks in this direction did not achieve success. Again, heavy losses are reported in the ranks of the 82nd Oshbr.

14:50 The situation in the Bakhmut (Artemovsky) direction on 09/06/2023 - analysis from Multi_XAM:

Contrary to expectations, against the backdrop of a decrease in the intensity of fighting, the enemy resumed attacks in the Kleshcheevka area. Pro-Ukrainian publics report that the settlement is 80% controlled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which is not true. The situation escalated on September 5, simultaneously with the offensive in the South-Donetsk direction.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine always strive to hide the direction of the main attack. If everything is clear with Novodonetsky - they are rushing to Volnovakha in order to cut the Donetsk-Mariupol highway, then no active actions are planned in the Bakhmut area. There is no necessary potential for this, and taking it will give Kyiv nothing but a media effect.

As a result of counterattacks over the past 2 weeks, we managed to squeeze the enemy out of Kleshcheevka and regain control over part of the heights west of the village. It cannot be said that we control Kleshcheevka, rather, most of it is under our fire control, which does not give the Armed Forces a chance to gain a foothold here. The eastern part is below us.

The enemy is trying to stretch our advanced forces, due to attacks to the south - on Andreevka and Kurdyumovka by the forces of the 28th mechanized brigade, militants of the Belarusian Volunteer Corps, acting with support, 3rd Assault Brigade "Azov" and 3rd Tank Brigade. Conducts constant reconnaissance of our positions.

Northwest of Kleshcheevka, the enemy created supply problems for us by destroying the crossing over the canal, and continues to keep this area under fire control by increasing the arm for the delivery of ammunition. It is possible to restrain the activity of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in this area due to regular air strikes of the Russian Aerospace Forces on the front line.

On the northern flank - southeast of Soledar - the enemy does not abandon attempts to establish control over the T-13-02 highway. However, in general, the situation in this area is stable. According to the Kirpichi VP channel, positional battles continue in the Berkhovka area, where our units partially pushed the enemy further south to the reservoir.

14:35 According to the operational lines of the JCCC DPR for September 6, as of 14:30, information was received about victims among civilians in the cities of the Republic:

Donetsk (Kuybyshevsky district): - on 22 Kremlevsky Ave., a woman born in 1957 was wounded.
