Maxar: New Satellite Imagery of recent fighting near Vuhledar, Ukraine

European Space Imaging partner, Maxar, collected recent high-resolution satellite imagery of the Vuhledar area in the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine, the site of concentrated fighting between Ukrainian and Russian forces. Satellite imagery from February 8th and February 10th reveal areas of intense artillery shelling in the farms and fields south of Vuhledar as Ukrainian forces reportedly pushed back Russian troops that have been attempting to capture territory in the area. Probable Russian military units, comprised of tanks and armored personnel vehicles, were also seen deployed along tree lines in the fields as well as in residential areas (including behind homes and buildings) in Krylivka and Petrivka. In the link provided below, you can download a gallery of images that provides a visual perspective of the situation in the area.
