Ukrainian Perspective: Invasion of Ukraine: September 6th, 2022
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Korrespondent] 23:53 Zelensky announced his readiness to create a demilitarized zone around the ZNPP: "As for the proposal of the IAEA Director General Grossi to create a protection zone at the station, then you need to look at the specific content of such an instrument: what exactly can be protection? If the content of this proposal is to demilitarize the territory Nuclear power plant - and this is logical, because it was the Russian military presence that brought the Zaporizhzhya plant to the brink of a radiation catastrophe - then we can support such a demilitarized protection zone."

23:48 In an evening video message, Zelensky stressed that a tough confrontation continues almost along the entire front line: "This is 1,300 km of active hostilities. And it's simply unfair when they talk a lot about certain sectors of the front, but they seem to forget about others. Although our soldiers in many areas - absolute fellows, absolute heroes - in the Donbass, and in the Kharkiv region, and in the Zaporozhye region, and in the south, and in the border regions of the north and east of the country."

23:40 A meeting of the UN Security Council on the situation in Ukraine has started in New York. UN Secretary General António Guterres said that "as a first step, Russian and Ukrainian forces must commit themselves not to conduct any military operations in the direction of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant or from the territory of the nuclear power plant."

23:34 Germany handed over five additional Gepard anti-aircraft installations and a COBRA radar station to Ukraine, the German government said. Last week, 15 installations of this type were handed over.

23:23 Zelensky, in an evening video message, said that he had spoken with the new British Prime Minister Liz Truss - this was her first conversation in a new status with a foreign leader: "I heard very important words about our cooperation, and about future security guarantees for Ukraine, and about the restoration of our state. It is very important that the UK will continue to lead the way in consolidating the free world and defending freedom."

21:38 The Pentagon sees that the Ukrainian Defense Forces in the Kherson region "continue to move forward," US Department of Defense spokesman, Air Force Brigadier General Pat Ryder said: "The first thing we saw in the Kherson region is the continuation of the offensive actions of the Ukrainians. They moving forward. We know that they recaptured some villages."

21:14 The "authorities" of occupied Kherson said that Ukrainian troops launched a missile attack on a coal base near the city, there were no casualties.

21:02 US and European sanctions imposed against Russia could lead to a longer and deeper economic recession than previously expected, Bloomberg writes, citing an internal report of the Russian government, which was at the disposal of the agency. Read more in Much Darker Than Expected .

19:59 The Ukrainian military successfully repelled enemy attacks in the Donbass - in the areas of the settlements of Dolina, Soledar, Novobakhmutovka, Kodema, Zaitsevo, Avdeevka, Maryinka and Lyubomirovka, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports in the evening report . Due to significant losses, the number of enemy units withdrawn to restore combat capability increased.

19:57 The United States does not consider effective the proposal to include Russia in the list of countries sponsoring terrorism, said White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. According to her, the inclusion of the Russian Federation in such a list may have unforeseen consequences for Ukraine, in particular - to delay the export of food.

19:52 In Energodar, the invaders are intensifying filtration measures and repressions against the local population. "Vlast" failed to achieve the minimum level of loyalty and widely uses harassment, kidnapping and blackmail, reports the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. An additional special unit of the Russian Guard arrived in the city to carry out filtration measures. With the help of collaborators, lists of "unreliable" are compiled. The detained residents of the city and captured servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are kept in the premises of the local department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the city court converted into torture chambers.

Local residents are massively trying to leave the city for the territory controlled by Ukraine. Officially, this is prohibited, but at enemy checkpoints, the issue is resolved with the help of bribes, sometimes reaching 5,000-7,000 dollars. At the same time, most of the roads around the city and the shore of the Kakhovka reservoir are mined.

It is also known that the wounded invaders are placed in a local maternity hospital. In the future, it is planned to give them civilian clothes and involve them in filming propaganda stories for the Russian media about "wounded civilians as a result of the shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine."

19:47 Russian media report with reference to the "authorities" of the occupied Zaporozhye region that the "commandant" of Berdyansk Artem Bardin, whose car was blown up today, died from his wounds.

19:43 Zelensky, during a conversation with the heads of large American businesses and investors, invited them to start investing in Ukraine and stressed that any company that can put the Made in Ukraine mark on its product "will automatically become part of the history of Ukrainian courage and victory, globally known history, and at the same time - a part of our life, which we defend with all our might and at the expense of the strongest world powers and leaders."

19:40 The European Commission has approved a proposal not to recognize Russian passports issued in the occupied territories of Ukraine, European Commissioner Ylva Johanson said.

19:37 Serhiy Prytula said that "people's Bayraktars" are already in Ukraine. They called the "birds" Kovinka, Khalepa and Shaking. On each of the three sides there are stickers with the words "People's Bayraktar" and a pattern of a special embroidery ornament, which was developed by a Lviv craftswoman. By agreement with the Ministry of Defense, videos of these UAVs will be specially marked in messages on social networks.

19:16 Deputy Defense Minister Anna Malyar called for restraint in disseminating information about the Ukrainian counteroffensive: "Everything is going according to plan. According to our plan. We are helping the Armed Forces with informational restraint."

19:14 A member of the "main council of administration" of the occupied Zaporozhye region, Vladimir Rogov, said that a protective zone around the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant has been created, "the threat comes only from the Kiev authorities."

19:11 Anti-Russian sanctions dealt a serious blow to the Russian defense industry and greatly reduced Moscow's ability to equip its army. For more details - in the material Russia is already buying weapons from the DPRK .

19:02 Adviser to the head of the Presidential Office Sergei Leshchenko announced tonight "excellent news from President Zelensky about the counter-offensive operation in the Kharkiv region."

18:56 Scholz said in an interview with the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung that Germany is helping Ukraine enough with weapons, and the decision to transfer this or that equipment is made in coordination with the allies: "Germany has been supplying heavy weapons to Ukraine for months - anti-aircraft self-propelled guns Gepard of volley fire, Panzerhaubitze 2000 ... How chancellor, I broke with a long tradition that made such deliveries impossible."

18:25 Against the background of the failed energy blackmail of Europe, the Russian authorities began to talk more about diplomacy. More details - in the material the Kremlin asks for negotiations .

17:37 The IAEA published a report on the results of the mission to the Zaporizhzhya NPP , in which it stated "the urgent need for temporary measures to prevent a nuclear accident caused by physical damage caused by military means" at the ZNPP. "We need an agreement by all parties to create a protective zone around the ZNPP in order to avoid damage," the document says.

The organization also says that the shelling of the station and its environs "should be stopped to maintain the physical integrity of the nuclear power plant." The IAEA has offered to organize exercises to practice effective response in the event of an emergency.

17:33 The IAEA mission has a limited mandate at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, so it cannot demand that Russia de-occupy the plant, Energoatom head Petr Kotin said in an interview with Reuters: “An unusual situation has arisen. All experts and the head of the IAEA Rafael Grossi himself understand: everything that is needed , is the de-occupation of the station. But they cannot directly offer this because of the limitation of the mandate."

According to Kotin, the establishment of a permanent representation of the IAEA at the Zaporozhye NPP was the right step, but the root of the problem remains - Russian troops continue to control the station: "We really need the results of this mission. The conclusions of the experts should help resolve the situation around the plant and should lead to de-occupation. If not , then we must have some other viable results."

17:26 "The head of the interim administration" of the occupied part of the Zaporozhye region, Yevgeny Balitsky, after escaping to Crimea, was returned back under escort, Mayor of Melitopol Ivan Fedorov said: "After his departure, he was returned under escort on September 1, so that he seemed to be alive and well. After that, he disappeared again. To date, his presence in Melitopol has not been noticed, he has long been asked to lead remotely. "

The mayor added that "at any convenient moment he will be brought under escort and will be shown": "This is definitely not a person who makes any decisions. This is just a person who is traded by enemies." Fedorov stressed that either the Ukrainian court or the Russian special services are waiting for Balitsky. According to Fedorov, the FSB would later liquidate the Gauleiter as "used".

Fedorov also said that calls from collaborators attached to the "electoral commission" to hold the "referendum" have become more frequent. The traitors are afraid for their lives and ask to tell the partisans that they will no longer cooperate with the invaders.

16:54 Another explosion sounded in Berdyansk, this time in the Slobodka area, firefighters went to the scene, the "authorities" of the occupied Zaporozhye region reported.

16:27 The European Commission approved the decision to abolish the simplified visa regime with Russia. It will start working from Monday, September 12th. The consulates of the EU countries are recommended to check applicants for Schengen visas for security threats and international relations. According to the European Commission, Russians now have up to 1 million Schengen visas in their hands, they can be revised by the countries that issued them.

The abolition of the simplified procedure for issuing visas implies that the cost of the visa fee will increase from 35 to 80 euros, the terms for issuing visas may increase up to six months. Long-term and multiple-entry visas for Russians will become much less, the practice of issuing a single-entry visa strictly for travel dates will become common. The priority of issuing Schengen visas to Russians should be humanitarian reasons, and last but not least, tourist purposes.

The European Commission also announced that it was preparing recommendations to strengthen control over the issuance of visas to Russians and a pass at the border.

15:58 Russian media write that eight explosions thundered in Kherson - "presumably, air defense is working."

15:55 The "authorities" of the occupied Zaporozhye region said that a car belonging to the "commandant" of the city was blown up in Berdyansk, then a shootout took place. Wounded in the explosion "commandant" Artem Bardin hospitalized in serious condition.

15:48 Hungary is threatening to block the extension of some blocks of EU sanctions against Russia if personal sanctions against three Russian oligarchs - Alisher Usmanov, Petr Aven and Viktor Rashnikov - are not lifted, Radio Liberty correspondent Rikard Jozwiak said, citing his sources in diplomatic circles.

15:37 Parliament adopted an appeal to the European Union to stop issuing visas to citizens of the Russian Federation, MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak said.

15:31 The Rada has banned broadcasting meetings during martial law. This initiative was supported by 241 people's deputies, people's deputy Oleksiy Goncharenko said.

15:23 An explosion sounded in the center of Berdyansk near the building of the city administration, the "authorities" of the occupied part of the Zaporozhye region reported. According to them, it was a terrorist attack.

14:35 This week, EU energy ministers will hold a debate on the issue of imposing a price limit on Russian gas, Spanish Minister of Environmental Transformations Teresa Ribera said.

14:01 The European Commission has proposed two options for limiting prices for Russian gas, writes the Financial Times with reference to the document. The first is the introduction of a price ceiling for gas from the Russian Federation throughout the European Union. As an alternative, it is proposed to create a single company that will purchase gas from Russia. The second is to divide EU countries into two zones: a red zone where prices can be capped, and a green zone where prices will remain high enough to facilitate the flow of gas into the red zone.

13:57 Scholz rejected Shmyhal's request for additional heavy weapons, Die Welt writes, citing sources in Ukrainian government circles. It was, in particular, the supply of Leopard 2 tanks by the German industry.

13:41 The Kherson region is completely switching to the system of Russian legislation, said Kirill Stremousov, "deputy head of the CAA".

13:38 Radio Liberty published satellite images of a pontoon bridge near Daryevka, Kherson region, which was destroyed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The Russians used it to cross the Ingulets River. The photographs taken on September 5 also show damage to the Daryevsky bridge itself. On the eve of the destruction of this crossing, OK Pivden reported.

The images show damage to a building near the river pier where an unidentified vessel has been anchored since the start of the Russian invasion. Approximately 250 meters from the crossing, the satellite recorded a cluster of Russian military equipment and a large number of trenches.

13:34 The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation announced that a large oil depot near Karpovka in the Dnipropetrovsk region was destroyed by a Caliber strike. Also, the department once again accused the Ukrainian side of shelling the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. This time, the Ukrainian military allegedly fired three shells on the territory of the station in a day, one hit the roof of the 1st special building, the second - at the transition between the 1st special building and the 2nd power unit, the third exploded near the tanks for distilled water near the 2nd power unit.

13:11 The mayor of Energodar Dmitry Orlov, citing local residents, said that today at 12:20 a powerful explosion thundered in the city, after which electricity and water supply disappeared at the same time.

13:06 The Representation of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea has prepared recommendations for local residents on how to act during the de-occupation and possible battles on the territory of the peninsula. In particular, Crimeans living near military facilities are advised to leave. The area near the Crimean bridge is also unsafe, the office warned.

12:57 Russian media write that sounds of explosions are heard in Energodar, the city is de-energized. Local "authorities" say that the power line in the area of ​​the nuclear power plant has been damaged.

12:32 The Armed Forces of Ukraine partially advanced and gained a foothold in the Luhansk region, said the head of the OVA Serhiy Gaidai: "We added several hundred meters yesterday, which our military controls. Since the attacks were repulsed and there were some small advances."

12:06 Zelensky said that he had a "warm and fruitful" talk with Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi: "He expressed gratitude to the US Congress and the American people for the powerful support of Ukraine in the fight against Russian aggression. It is important to increase pressure on the terrorist state to achieve peace and approaching our common victory."

12:04 Ukraine returned the bodies of another 25 of its defenders, the Ministry of Reintegration reports.

11:46 Russia received more money from the sale of energy resources than it spent on the war with Ukraine, CREA analysts calculated. Thus, the income of the Russian Federation during the war amounted to the equivalent of 158 billion euros, and spending on military operations is estimated at 100 billion euros. The largest buyer of energy products with 85 billion euros was the EU (among the countries the leader is Germany), followed by China with 35 billion euros.

11:25 In the center of Kharkiv, three people have already been rescued from under the ruins of a residential building, they were not previously injured. Rescue work continues, Mayor Igor Terekhov said.

11:09 Erdogan said that the EU countries themselves are to blame for the problems that they face in the coming winter due to the reduction in Russian gas supplies: "Europe's attitude towards Putin and its sanctions inevitably led Putin to this situation. I think that Europe will spend this winter with serious problems."

10:55 Donetsk "leadership" officially ordered to urgently resume military registration in the Mariupol region. In Mangush, a meeting of local "authorities" has already been held on this matter, said Petr Andryushchenko, adviser to the mayor of Mariupol. According to him, this means that at least the Mangush region is waiting for official mobilization during September. The same order was received in Mariupol, but the execution was delayed for two weeks. That is, approximately in the 20th of September, Mariupol and the region expect the first wave of mobilization. Andryushchenko once again called on the men to leave until the ban was introduced.

10:38 Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov announced another missile attack on the central part of the Kiev region. The administrative building was damaged, there is no information about the victims yet. As a result of the previous morning shelling of Kharkov, a residential multi-storey building in the central part of the Kyiv region was badly damaged.

10:17 Ukraine demands from Russia to provide a humanitarian corridor for the evacuation of women, children, the elderly from the settlements around the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. She stated this to the French TV channel LCI. According to her, people are turning to the government en masse for help, but Russia officially refuses to provide such corridors. At the same time, Vereshchuk assured that Ukraine would not stop trying to help its citizens travel to safe places.

09:56 Today, at about 8:00 in the south and east of the country, units of the anti-aircraft missile forces of the Air Force destroyed five of the six Kh-101 cruise missiles fired from Tu-95MS aircraft from the Caspian Sea region. In addition, an attack helicopter of the invaders Ka-52 Alligator was destroyed today, said the speaker of the Odesa OVA Serhiy Bratchuk.

09:53 Peskov said that in order to organize a meeting between Putin and Zelensky, it is necessary to build a "foundation of agreements" that will be fixed, but this is not the question.

09:51 As a result of a missile attack on Krivoy Rog, there was a strong fire at an oil depot, the extent of destruction and information about the victims are being investigated, said the head of the Dnipropetrovsk OVA Valentin Reznichenko.

09:49 Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov said that as a result of the morning shelling, a multi-storey building in the central part of the Kievsky district of the city was damaged.

09:47 British intelligence notes that Russia still has problems with drones. So, in some sectors of the front, almost half as many sorties are recorded as before (for example, over the western bank of the Dnieper). Russia is trying to maintain a stockpile of UAVs, but this is exacerbated by a shortage of components as a result of international sanctions. All this worsens the tactical situational awareness of commanders and makes Russian operations more and more difficult, analysts say.

09:43 The "authorities" of the occupied Kherson region said that Ukrainian troops were continuously shelling the area of ​​Nova Kakhovka and the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station during the night and in the morning, over 70 rockets were fired, most of them were allegedly shot down.

09:40 Peskov said that Western sanctions "made inoperable" the system for servicing gas pumping units, repair maintenance of the Nord Stream turbine is not being carried out, the responsibility for the situation is "entirely and completely on Europe."

09:36 IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi plans to publish a report on the mission to the Zaporizhia NPP on September 6, the organization said.

09:32 Russia buys millions of artillery shells and short-range missiles from North Korea, writes The New York Times, citing declassified US intelligence data. US officials say this indicates Moscow's desperation as international sanctions have forced it to turn to rogue states for help.

09:11 The General Staff announced the approximate losses of the enemy on the morning of September 6. The enemy suffered the greatest losses in the Donetsk direction.

  • personnel - about 50,150 (+350) people liquidated,

  • tanks - 2077 (+9),

  • armored combat vehicles - 4484 (+25),

  • artillery systems - 1179 (+22),

  • MLRS - 296 (+2),

  • air defense systems - 156 (+0),

  • aircraft - 236 (+0),

  • UAV operational-tactical level - 876 (+9),

  • cruise missiles - 209 (+4),

  • ships/boats - 15 (+0),

  • automotive equipment and tankers - 3305 (+19),

08:52 In the Donetsk region over the past day, four civilians were killed by Russian shelling - in Khromovo, Georgievka, Bakhmut and Konstantinovka. In Kurakhovo, the Russians destroyed gymnasium No. 2. In total, over these six months, 615 educational institutions in the Donetsk region received damage of varying degrees, said the head of the IAA Pavel Kirilenko.

08:33 In the Dnipropetrovsk region, Russians fired at the Nikopol district from Gradov three times at night. In Nikopol, they hit residential areas, wounding two people, said the head of the OVA, Valentin Reznichenko.

08:17 The head of the military administration of Krivoy Rog, Alexander Vilkul, announced missile attacks on the city and urged them to stay in shelters.

07:59 The Armed Forces of Ukraine have successfully repulsed enemy attacks in the areas of Soledar, Zaitsevo, Butovka and Spartak Mine. As a result of the well-coordinated work of aviation and artillery, several strongholds, about five positions of anti-aircraft missile systems and an enemy artillery battery were hit, the General Staff reports in the morning report . The General Staff also notes that the Russians place troops and equipment in kindergartens, churches of the UOC-MP and use the temple as a field hospital.

07:13 The American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) notes that the Ukrainian counteroffensive significantly weakens Russia's logistical and administrative capabilities in the south. Counter-offensive actions also affect the plans of the occupying authorities regarding "referenda", which the Russians can not decide on, as well as the administrative and bureaucratic capabilities of the occupying officials, analysts say.

07:08 Biden said that Russia should not be recognized as a state sponsor of terrorism. Answering the relevant question of journalists, the US President said: "No", writes Reuters.

06:19 Russian media write, citing a source in the "DPR", that the first four convicted by the Ukrainian court for separatism, who were imprisoned in Mariupol, were released in Donetsk.

03:21 Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov announced a rocket attack on the Industrial District of the city. In one case, there was a hit in a private residential building, while clearing the rubble, the body of one deceased was found. In the second case, the blow was not far from private housing, the house caught fire from the scattering of fragments, no one was injured.

01:56 Zelensky hinted in an interview with ABC that Ukraine is conducting a counteroffensive in different directions. When asked by a journalist why the Ukrainian military decided to launch a counter-offensive in the Kherson region right now, the president replied: "I will not say that this is only a counter-offensive in the Kherson region ... There is a direction or directions - in the plural - and we must move forward." Asked for clarification, Zelensky said he could not discuss the details of any military action and wanted "the enemy to get a few surprises from us."
