Operational information as of the evening of November 12, 2022 from the General Staff
The two-hundred-sixty-second (262) day of the heroic resistance of the Ukrainian people to a russian military large-scale invasion continues. In the liberated settlements of the Kherson oblast, units of the Defense Forces are carrying out stabilization measures. Also, representatives of the oblast military administration returned to Kherson and began work there.
The enemy is improving the fortification equipment of the defensive lines on the left bank of the Dnieper. At the same time, it continues offensive operations in the Bakhmut, Avdiivka and Novopavlivka directions. During the day, the russian occupiers carried out 14 airstrikes, carried out up to 10 attacks from rocket salvo systems.
More than 15 settlements of Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk and Sumy oblasts were hit. The situation in the Volyn and Polissya directions has not changed significantly. The republic of belarus will continue to support the armed aggression of the russian federation against Ukraine.
The formation of the russian-belarusian grouping of troops on the territory of the republic of belarus continues. There remains the danger of missile and air strikes from the territory and airspace of this country. The enemy shelled in such other directions:
in the Siverskyi direction - from mortars and barrel artillery, in the areas of Slavhorod and Romashkove settlements of the Sumy oblast; in the Slobozhansk direction - 23 artillery shellings of areas of populated areas, which are not far from the contact line, were recorded; in the Kupyansk and Lyman directions - from tanks and the entire variety of artillery, in the areas of the settlements of Berestovka, Makiivka, Ploshanka, Kislivka, Bilohorivka, Stelmakhivka, and Siversk;

In the South Buh direction, the enemy, after blowing up the Antonivskyi road and railway bridges, the road through the Kakhovskaya HPP dam and other previously mentioned bridge crossings, is carrying out engineering equipment of the positions on the left bank of the Dnipro River. The russian military-political leadership does not stop trying to integrate the temporarily occupied territories of Donetsk and Luhansk regions into the legal space of the russian federation. Thus, since November 11, the issuing of documents of self-proclaimed territorial entities, in particular regarding participation in hostilities, has been stopped in this territory.
The Command of the 1st and 2nd Army Corps of the Southern Military District of the Armed Forces of the russian federation has been given an order for the centralized transfer of monetary payments with personnel to financial institutions and to bank cards of the russian federation. Servicemen of these units were offered to continue their service on a contractual basis under russian law. At the same time, these persons express fears about the annulment of documents and benefits assigned by the fake republics in case of refusal of the new contract.
In the temporarily captured territories of the Kherson region, the moral and psychological condition and discipline of russian soldiers is deteriorating. A "dry law" was introduced in the village of Henichesk, and the occupation authorities confiscated and removed alcoholic beverages from warehouses, shops, restaurants and other places of public catering. According to detailed information, it has been confirmed that the Defense Forces hit the concentration area of the occupiers in the Luhansk oblast, in the area of the village of Hirske.
