General Staff: Ukrainian forces recapture Andriivka in Donetsk region:
Ukraine's defense forces have recaptured the village of Andriivka in the eastern Donetsk region, inflicting significant losses on the enemy's manpower and equipment and entrenching themselves on the achieved lines.
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine announced this on its Facebook page, according to Ukrinform.
"In the area of responsibility of the Khortytsia operational-strategic group in the Bakhmut sector, the enemy does not stop trying to break through the defenses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Bohdanivka. In turn, the defense forces were partially successful during offensive operations near Klishchiivka. During the assault operations, they captured Andriivka, Donetsk region, inflicting significant losses on [enemy] manpower and equipment and entrenching themselves on the achieved lines," the post said.
Some 25 combat engagements took place across the front in the last 24 hours. The enemy launched two missile strikes, 59 airstrikes and 56 MLRS attacks on the positions of Ukrainian troops and civilian objects. On September 14, the occupiers attacked Ukraine with 22 Shahed-136/131 one-way attack drones, 17 of which were destroyed by Ukrainian air defenses. As a result of Russian terrorist attacks, unfortunately, there are dead and wounded among the civilian population. Port infrastructure, private residential buildings and other civilian infrastructure were destroyed and damaged.
The enemy launched airstrikes on the settlements of Strilecha, Pletenivka, Stepova Novoselivka and Kotliarivka in the Kharkiv region, Nadiia and Novoiehorivka in the Luhansk region, Klishchiivka, Krasnohorivka, Vodiane, Prechystivka, Novomaiorske, Urozhaine and Staromaiorske in the Donetsk region, and Mala Tokmachka and Robotyne in the Zaporizhzhia region. --->READ MORE HERE

Ukraine’s advance towards Tokmak may accelerate — Estonian intelligence:
Ukrainian forces continue to clear Russian fortifications in Zaporizhzhya Oblast, laying the ground for a potential push further towards Tokmak, according to an assessment by Estonian intelligence, as reported by public broadcaster ERR on Sept. 15.
“The Armed Forces of Ukraine have taken several important heights near Novoprokopivka, which creates the conditions for further breakthrough and development of success, particularly by mechanized units,” the statement reads.
The report also says that the Russian reinforcements, including units of the 76th Airborne Assault Division, previously deployed to the area, are beginning to exhibit fatigue.
As a result of incompetent decisions by Russian command, the units suffered major losses near the village of Verbove.
Estonian intelligence also believes that Ukrainian forces could potentially accelerate their advance towards Tokmak, though swift breakthroughs are not expected.
"The situation at other frontlines has hardly changed; Ukrainian forces continued to exert pressure towards Bakhmut, but have only achieved minimal success; as before, the main battle continues for Klishchiivka," Estonian intelligence reported. --->READ MORE HERE
