The operational update regarding the #russian_invasion on 06.00 on March 31, 2022

The thirty-sixth day of the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people to the russian military invasion begins.The leadership of the russian federation is considering the formation of occupation authorities in the temporarily occupied territories. According to the available information, employees of law enforcement agencies, prosecutor’s offices and courts are being selected on the territory of the russian federation, which will be sent to the territory of Ukraine in the future.

To implement the scenario of creating another pseudo-republic in the Kherson region, the work of the Federal Security Service of the russian federation, the 652nd Group of Information and Psychological Operations and officers of the 12th Main Directorate of the General Staff of the russian federation is noted. The main activity of these units is the so-called “explanatory work” with local authorities and the public. Information support is provided by showing videos with fictitious persons.

The morale and psychological condition of the russian enemy troops and the level of motivation of the personnel of the occupying forces to take part in hostilities remains low and tends to deteriorate. According to the available information, two platoon commanders were removed from their positions in the units of the 60th separate motorized rifle brigade of the 5th all-military army of the Eastern Military District due to non-fulfillment of the order to conduct hostilities. The Deputy Commander of the Brigade for Military and Political Work is scheduled to arrive in the area of combat missions of the BTGr unit in Yasynivka, Donetsk region.

Numerous cases of refusal to continue service and reluctance to sign contracts with conscripts have been reported in units of the Baltic Fleet, in particular the 79th Detached Motorized Rifle Brigade of the 11th Army Corps.

On the territory of the republic of belarus, the movement of military equipment of the armed forces of the russian federation was recorded, probably for the purpose of regrouping units, as well as creating a reserve to replenish losses in manpower, weapons and equipment of groups operating in Ukraine.In the territories of the Kyiv region left by the enemy, there are frequent cases of mining of the territory and buildings of local residents.

The Defence Forces Group of Ukraine continues to conduct a defence operation in the Eastern, Southeastern and Northeastern directions. In all directions, the russian enemy is successfully restrained by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in some – our troops are carrying out successful counterattacks.

The Joint Forces in the Donetsk and Luhansk areas repulsed 5 enemy attacks in a day. Our soldiers destroyed 10 tanks, 18 armoured and 13 units of vehicles, 15 artillery systems. The enemy suffered casualties.

The Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has hit 7 air targets in the previous day – 4 planes, UAVs and 2 cruise missiles. Air Force aircraft continue to launch missile and bomb strikes on places of accumulation of equipment and enemy manpower.
