The President's Office is not happy with the fact that Ukrainians are increasingly separating themselves from the war and have almost stopped donating to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Bankova understands the fatigue of Ukrainians, but the passivity of society is being transformed into disappointment and a loss of faith in victory on Ukraine’s terms.

https://t.me/rezident_ua/20527

We agree with our colleagues that they are tired of the war and have begun to abstract themselves from it; we have previously given information about this. The military and volunteers are already talking about this.

In Ukraine, there is another split in society between those who support the war (these are Bankova and its “propagandists”), and those who are tired and stop living with war, realizing that this is a path to nowhere (Ukrainians, about 70% of the country, who they are still silent because they are intimidated).

For Bankova, such a split threatens the loss of ratings and ultimately the loss of power. This is why the entire propaganda machine works in two directions:

1. Brand and intimidate those who are tired, disappointed and have stopped donating to the army and will overcome.

2. Convince everyone that the Ukrainian people need the war for survival, and not for Zelensky and his entourage to enrich themselves and extend their time at the trough.

What we have long warned about has happened. The Russians, four months after the Armed Forces of Ukraine, began to use cassette “toys” in response.

Immediately starting with a large bomb that flies 30 km deep into the LBS (RBK-500, designed to destroy lightly armored and easily vulnerable equipment, manpower, field ammunition depots, railway trains, fortified military installations, military-industrial facilities and communications. Maybe cover a huge area of ​​up to 8 square kilometers with damaging elements.

We said that the use of these weapons by the Ukrainian Armed Forces will give the Russians a trump card in the long term.
But the fools on Bankova did not believe it and tried to use everything at the time of the offensive operation, as if realizing that this was the last chance.

As a Kremlin source explained to us: The Kremlin was waiting for the reaction of Western institutions to this violation by Ukraine, but there was almost no reaction, except for a couple of warnings. Now the Russian Armed Forces can safely cover everything, especially after Israel’s actions in the Gaza Strip.

The presence of the APU in landings will be fatal. This is 90% death/injury/disability after the arrival of such a bomb.

“Roads of death” began to appear around Avdeevka. What does this mean:

We have noted many times that Avdeevka, almost from the very beginning, tactically and strategically repeats the Artyomovsk meat grinder, in which the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost about 70 thousand people killed. Events in Avdeevka are developing according to an almost similar scenario: first, artillery around the most critical fortified areas is suppressed, and then logistics begin to be blocked.

At the same time, the depth at which Ukrainian equipment is affected increases, but the pattern does not change: the Ukrainian Armed Forces, just like in Artyomovsk, are losing military equipment and people in attempts to maintain supplies for the Avdeevka garrison.

However, despite the experience of the battles for Mariupol and Artyomovsk, as well as many months of fighting in the Orekhov region, the command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces stubbornly clings to problematic positions. It does not give orders for regrouping or retreat.

Meanwhile, the first signs of future big problems, similar to those observed around Artyomovsk before the city's fall, are already appearing.

The Russian Armed Forces are suppressing the activity of the Armed Forces of Ukraine within a radius of at least 25-30 km from Avdeevka in the same way as happened with Ukrainian forces in Chasovoy Yar, Ivanovsky, Kleshcheevka, and Berkhovka before the assault on Artyomovsk.

Additional forces are being deployed near Avdeevka from other directions. Thus, the transfer of elements of the so-called offensive brigade - the 47th Mechanized Infantry Brigade "Magura" has already been recorded.

This formation has already suffered severe losses north of the Avdeevsky section in the Stepovoe-Koksokhim area. Also, elements of the formation were attacked in the rear, in the Ocheretin area.

Units of the 1st Brigade will presumably be redeployed to the same area. The losses of T-64BM Bulat tanks, which equipped the 1st Brigade, were recorded less than 5 km from Avdeevka.

Previously, the 1st separate tank brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces was involved in the vanguard of the offensive in the South Donetsk and Zaporozhye directions.

There is a general pattern in the actions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces command. Firstly, to try to stop the crisis in the Avdeevka area, they are not using the reserves of the new formation (if they exist) but elements of brigades that previously took part in hostilities in other sectors of the front.

Secondly, these teams are deployed in new areas without a significant break necessary for replenishment, rest, reconnaissance, and establishing interaction in a new location.

The supply of the Avdeevka group already shows the whole range of so-called mosquito logistics. At the final stage of the battle for Artyomovsk, this type of garrison support remained the only one available to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The same thing is happening in Avdeevka.

What do barflies think about Selensky's talk about a possible Maidan 3? I believe it's rather the usual propaganda, but is it possible? I don't see any relevant forces that could organise that,and even if there were mass protests, the Ukrainian paramilitary would not care to shed a lot of blood.

Yes and no.

Current headlines - "Ukrainian army says it is advancing at Dnipro river pushing back Russian forces three to eight kilometres..."

The comedian is now relying totally on optics to try and keep weapons and the gravy train flowing. That bridgehead they are determined to hold has become a killing field any military could only dream of. From Ukraine reports it seems the steady stream of infantry/reinforcements being fed into it are only enough keeping up with losses rather than increasing the force at the bridge. Three fire bags if that's the term for them that Ukraine is determined to feed the last Ukrainian in just for the optics.
The Brits may well have a hand in this as Russia is their primary target rather than the middle east or China. Too much MacKinder in the Brits.

Yes, good question. On the one hand, Ukraine has to be the most propaganda saturated country in the world, and for many people there just aren't any alternative sources of info. On the other hand, nearly everyone in the country knows someone or is related to someone who was KIA, or more commonly, went into the army and was never heard from again. You would think that people would talk, connect the dots, and see the obvious. Even if they have to keep their opinions underground in the Ukraine police state, they would form an opposition (probably already happening). I'm waiting for Russia to turn out the lights in Kiev, which would certainly bring the war home as well as cause a mass migration to Europe. Once things really go south, they will collapse very quickly.

Mike R | Nov 19 2023 17:04 utc | 18 " On the other hand, nearly everyone in the country knows someone or is related to someone who was KIA, or more commonly, went into the army and was never heard from again."

From some videos coming out of Ukraine on social media, many if not most have no understanding of the numbers that will never return. It is only after many many months of not hearing from Husbands, sons, sibling that they begin to wonder what happened. Many believe the Russian forces a being mowed down in human wave attacks and that Russia will soon collapse (as per a video where an interviewer on the street asked people what they thought of the war).

That is a good part of the reason Z is determined to keep the war going. It is only when peace comes that the average Ukrainian will begin to see the devastating scale of their human losses.

I imagine the chance of a ‘popular’ uprising (third maidan) is about as likely as hitler being overthrown by a popular uprising. I assume the nazguls behind the throne, have thugs controlling elensky, and or his family, and at least a batallion of their best nazguls to control the streets of kiev.
Only these nazguls have the opportunity to overthrow elensky ….probably with a slug behind the ear, blamed on a russian sniper.

Think so, too.
Do not underestimate the MIx operations having planned and will following next months during the so-called "winter".
The winter will go smoothly above Zero-degree Celcius limit, no frozen grounds, be sure.
That's what both sides (AFU/RF) actually know about that up-coming "winter", so both sides have planned newly modified OPs either.
Hence means, a total rocket/missile fire by RF against UKR Power Capabilities - will fail due UKR Military having enough reserves to compensate the probable lack of electricity..
But what UKR+US/UK commanders won't expect yet, is a frontal attack by RF.
No one expect this today, but it's the only remaining "answer" against NATO grabbing methods.

Not quite.

The issue there isn't killing the Ukies that land on the left bank, those already enjoy a very short life expectancy once they make the crossing, it is stopping them from sending more people on a suicide mission. That won't stop as long as the AFU controls the right bank and leadership doesn't care about people's lives. There are no prospects of the latter changing, and Russia isn't recovering Kherson any time soon either, so this will continue for a while.

Krynki and other built up areas are also not quite optimal for RBK-500s because there are a lot of places to hide.

Where RBK-500s should help a lot with making advances is in the open fields between Donetsk and Dnepropetrovsk though, should such operations ever commence.

Also, a couple weeks ago the Tornado-S cluster rounds with the guided submunitions were reported to have finally made an appearance too. No idea what took so long -- I was complaining about them not being used for a year if your recall. But that was again a one-off -- they haven't been seen since then.

Maybe today's footage will be a one-off too.

Bankovaya, as usual, uses its primitive scheme when it wants to upgrade the topic it needs. This time there is unlimited mobilization, and this time they are using their tame military men, who should simply voice a negative case, which Bankovaya will then accept as a demand of the military, abdicating responsibility.

Mobilization will be intensified. All men from 18/20 years old to women of “required professions” will be attracted.

We insided about this many times, but the “office propagandists” convinced everyone that this would not happen. As usual, they lied to the Ukrainians, driving them into a “hellish reality.”

The Amulet system was introduced now for a reason. This is pumping up digital slavery. Everyone who has not left Ukraine will be captured/sent by Zelensky and his entourage to the front.

Zelensky needs to “save his skin” - he intends to do this, as usual, at the expense of the Ukrainian people.

Obviously he was currently serving, not previously serving. The tranny army of hunters of goat herders require solace.

Tuk @24: "Are you sure that we can see a cluster bomb in the video? There are many small explosions, but these explosions go along the tree lines. A common cluster bomb is meant to cover an area not a rather small path."

You are seeing the strikes from a great distance with very high telephoto magnification. Depth gets compressed in such imagery. You are basically seeing the strike from the edge. A disc-shaped region looks like a line when seen from the edge.

This is not to say the Russians don't have some amazing, gee-whiz cassette dispensers. Perhaps they do have some that feed the bomblettes out in a well-defined line? That would be pretty efficient at messing up Nazi trenches in the windbreaks/tree lines.

Military summary:

-Strange AFU attack of 7 AFVs went south toward Novopokrovsk, turned east and headed back north. The vehicles dropped some infantry in the trench north of Novopokrovsk, they lost 2 AFVs and the trench is being bombarded
-RUAF use the RBK-500 cluster bombs in Urozhaine, these are not merely more soft targets, the sub munitions are armor penetrating as well (one holds maybe 1500 sub munitions)
-RUAF bomb Krasnogorovka again
-Some reports claim more AFU troops surrendered south of Avdeevka
-Stepove remains gray zone
-The AFU attack toward Gorlovka (Horlivka) has ended in failure mainly through use of drones and TOS systems, RUAF is clearing the terracon area
-RUAF continues creeping toward Kleschevka and is bombarding the main trenches in the area. Their primary axis of advance is NW of Kleschevka, which could collapse AFU positions in Andryivka

Ukraine consists of two armies: the mobilized army, and the so-called core army (Azov). Azov remains firmly in control of the president, parliament and war efforts and mobilization in Ukraine and they are pushing 16-18 year old boys to mobilization.

Now the Russian Armed Forces can safely cover everything, especially after Israel’s actions in the Gaza Strip.

A number of different shots. The is several very good shots of the cluster munitions running up along the tree line. Not a perfect single file line, rather long strips.
There is one good shot of a set in front of a tree line and that shows a slightly zigzag but long line. In some shots are more in the far distance that look more like area spreads rather than lines.

This makes me wonder if dispersal pattern can be dialed in or somehow set for the intended target. That treeline shot was very impressive. Not sure I would like to be a mercenary on safari for goat herders and sitting in that treeline.

Re the RBK500 bomb. The sub-munitions are IR guided. Hence the different dispersal patterns.
The warhead can contain anti personell bombletts or 15 IR guided Armor piercing bomblets slowed down by parachutes. With 100 M range, and Good for up to 150 mm armor. IMO its possible the dispersal pattern can be altered by programing also. For trenches or armored columns, ECT. The bomb was just recently upgraded a month or so ago. So the newer vids would likely be the new Motiv-3M ammo
Very nasty weapon!

have seen an animation some time ago of how the ir anti armor bomblets work though bomblets is perhaps the wrong term. They twirl as they come down on the parachute, very narrow beam IR and when it detects a target it instantly fires a molten copper slug.

What you say about the various munitions and so forth certainly fits what is seen in the videos.

Late 1800-1930 Many "Northern Ukrainians" (a diaspora of sorts) were sent down to work in the coalmines of the Donbass and other regions. These people settle in among the Russian speaking people of those area. There they intermixed creating Ukrainian/Russian dialect languages and subcultures (There are name for these dialects each unique to the area they reside.) Too this days many of these subcultures are viewed as a lesser class by the Ukrainians of the north. Yet these people still view "Ukrainian" as there main heritage. And Orthodoxy religion still plays a big part of their lives, A religion being shunned by the North.

That is interesting. One thing though is the term Russian speakers. Prior to the creation of the Ukraine SSR, they were Russian. What you say rings true enough though.
I need to dig up the pre 2014 language maps of Ukraine again but from memory, Russian was the prdominant dialect of the two Donbass regions. A somewhat lower in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson. From videoes I've seen, many ethnic Russians did consider themselves Ukrainian.

But still the Donbass regions held referendums back in 2014/2015 to declare independence from Ukraine. I haven't heard of any numbers from Zaporizhzhia or Kherson volunteering to fight though.

They played by the rules, warned the west not to do the bullshit the west always does, and now that the west has shown that it:
*a: sends banned cluster munitions
*b: looks the other way
*c: ignores the genocide by israel
Now russia can wash their hands and return all those favours in kind, and keep the moral high ground.

Overview report on the northern flank of the Avdeevsky direction.

While success on the southern flank is widely discussed, the breakthrough of the enemy’s main line of defense in the north, which is already an established reality, remains in the shadows - and this is wrong, the success of the boys in the north must be noted. Let's fix it.

In the north, the main difficulty was the waste heap.
From the top of the waste heap, the crest saw our assault units several kilometers before deployment into battle formations.
Many FPV drones, Baba Yaga hexacopters, and cluster munitions were used.
In difficult and special conditions, and we have no others, rarely everything goes perfectly and without errors, and yet, thanks to the courage of the assault units, in close cooperation with reconnaissance and artillerymen, we managed to break through the first line of defense, take control of the waste heap, and go to the railway from the west and north-west of Krasnogorovka, clear the so-called gardens, the forest belt north of the gardens, knock out the enemy from the planting south of Novokalinovo, and also come close to AKHZ and begin to pull apart the enemy on the eastern outskirts of the plant territory.
Our aviation plays a huge role, the Aerospace Forces inflict such damage on the enemy with bomb strikes that it is difficult to even estimate, AA daily nightmares the Ukrainians with missile attacks.
The UAV crews take out the enemy's long-range artillery with Lancets, the attack on Avdievka is another page in the track record of this drone.

While individual subjects continue to talk about the fact that we are stuck near Avdeevka, have exhausted our potential, and so on, our tigers are moving forward and demolishing the enemy from long-standing positions, the enemy has a numerical superiority, sending his own infantry in battalions to patch up holes.
The crest, with multiple forces, was unable to take the Rabotino area. Remember this when they tell you about the military genius of Zaluzhny.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ War Map and the Situation on the Fronts for the Evening of 19 November 2023; pub. 00:05⚡️

🎬 Footage of the use of RBC-500 cluster bombs on AFU positions has appeared online. Such a projectile contains up to 600 submunitions with an incendiary mixture, capable of turning any enemy position into an inferno. The Russian army uses such weapons only in situations with no risk to civilian objects. Very dangerous and rare bombs, but the main problem of their use is the enemy's antimissile and air defence, suppression of which will allow our aviation to quietly work on enemy positions using EWs and UMPCs, as well as various types of FABs.

⚔️ Situation on the Fronts over the past Day

🔹#Bakhmut (#Artyomovsk) Direction:

▪️ The Russian army attacked in the direction of #Bogdanovka. In addition, our fighters are advancing in #Kleshcheyevka, and there are battles for the heights.

🔹#Donetsk Direction:

▪️ In the #Avdeyevka section there are battles near #Steponoye and the Coke Plant. To the south of #Avdeyevka, the Russian army is gradually advancing in the area of the industrial zone.

🔹#Zaporozhye Direction:

▪️ In the #Orekhov section the AFU attacked in the area of #Kopani, #Novoprokopovka and #Verbovoye. Meanwhile, our fighters advanced from the direction of #Novofyodorovka, regaining part of their positions near the motorway.
▪️ On the #Vremyevka ledge, the Russian army counterattacked near #Staromayorskoye and #Urozhaynoye.

⚡️ Overnight, Russian "Geraniums" visited military and infrastructure sites of 404 in and around #Kiev. Explosions were recorded near Belaya Tserkva and the #Kiev Reservoir.

Our source reports that in the case of “Zaluzhny’s leak”, Bankovaya did not come up with anything smarter than to disperse the thesis about a single decision-making center and the unity of the army. They say Zaluzhny is the saboteur of ZeErmak’s bet decisions.

Our insights themselves were indirectly confirmed.

But the speakers and political strategists of the Office of the President forget to voice the second part of the case, why Zaluzhny and his generals sabotaged the decisions of the headquarters. And that’s exactly the point.

1. The Commander-in-Chief, as a military man, refused to be a “sycophant” for the sake of his own career and in every possible way hindered Ze’s strategy for military operations for the sake of situational political goals. But at the same time, he never publicly entered into a fight with the “Ze-Woodpeckers”.

2. The Commander-in-Chief constantly spoke out against the chosen military tactics of the OP, which gave a situational advantage, but at a distance created a disaster.

3. The Commander-in-Chief always advocated the preservation of personnel, since he understood that the tactics of the OP would lead to a personnel disaster, when most of the experienced fighters would be put into meat grinders, and new ones would not have time to be trained during this time, which would weaken the quality of the army and lower morale.

4. The army loves Zaluzhny. They are simply afraid of Zelensky, because they will immediately fire you, brand you, and the tame SBU will imprison you. Ze love the rear rats that sit at the feeder.

5. Western generals speak to Zaluzhny, considering him an equal, supporting him behind the scenes (that’s why Zaluzhny hasn’t been removed yet). Western military leaders consider ZeErmak to be temporary workers and crooks.

6. If Zelensky receives a complete monopoly and no one can even comment on his situational decisions, then the Armed Forces of Ukraine can be given up. Within a year, the office will destroy the remnants of the army in stupid frontal offensives, which will bring the time of Ukraine’s complete surrender closer.

https://t.me/legitimniy/16737

Posted by: Down South | Nov 20 2023 6:31 utc | 99

If Zelensky can’t fire Zaluzhny they’re going to try their best to isolate him. Zaluzhny is going to have to launch a coup soon or be destroyed.

Our source in the OP said that the Office of the President continues to dismiss Zaluzhny’s people in order to weaken the influence of the Commander-in-Chief on the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Yesterday's resignation of Major General of the Medical Service Tatyana Ostashchenko. Bankova chose, as always, a noble pretext - a fundamentally new level of medical support for our soldiers.
