Previous reports were 800-1000 tanks in northern Luhansk if I remember correctly so it is going downhill fast with the armored vehicles.<br \/>\nAdd to that the CAA that were brought down to Avdiivka so it is a rather thin Russian line in northern Luhansk right now.<\/p>\n<p>Then we have the &#8220;southern&#8221; group which apparently includes Bakhmut and Avdiivka, i.e. the Donetsk area and it would have 500 tanks and 1600 IFVs. We all know how the miracle at Avdiivka is going in real time so this number probably needs to be revised down sharply.<br \/>\nAccording to him, 8 CAA attacked in Avdiivka with 20th and 150th MRD as well as a mosaic of DPR units.<br \/>\n150th MRD is located in Bakhmut so weakened there for Avdiivka and 20th MRD was already in the Donetsk area.<br \/>\nConclusion that the area around Donetsk has been significantly weakened after the fiasco in Avdiivka.<\/p>\n<p>Further to the southern front, should be around 100,000 with 590 tanks and 1275 IFVs and APCs.<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly many armored vehicles at the Dnipro actually (not listed them) and only 12,000 soldiers in Crimea \u2013 Erik14 was right, again\u2026 as usual.<\/p>\n<p>We can all sum this up and what remains of MBTs is quite meager now and not to forget that hundreds are T62 and T54-55 or older without later modification T72 \u2013 Yes, they are seriously short on armor.<\/p>\n<p>The figure for armored personnel carriers includes MTLB and all sorts so it is not 4500 BMP-3s left.<\/p>\n<p>I believe UA has more MBTs in absolute numbers and that they have better vehicles and that UA has more armored vehicles overall, ptgb, APC and IFV.<\/p>\n<p>Then probably 30%-40% of the Russian vehicles have technical faults and on the UA side the workshops all over Europe are working themselves to death to service the vehicle fleet.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s hope Dengamle gets back in time to nail a \u2013 &#8220;Tonight the tanks roll \u270a&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There is quite a lot of doubt about the ambition level but when you send in SOF and reconnaissance which are among the most protected resources you have to clear defense systems \u2013 then you have aimed high.<\/p>\n<p>Then we have the whole peak discussion \u2013 also completely wrong but we have to wait until it is disproved by increased intensity.<br \/>\nUA would never have crossed the Dnipro if it had peaked, right?<\/p>\n<p>Sure, Ukraine had planned to break through at the southern front this summer but it simply did not work.<br \/>\nThey have now carried out the preparations they need to make to be able to get their breakthroughs.<br \/>\nAfter New Year, RU has new fresh CAA to send to the fronts so the time between now and New Year is the low point they have to relate to.<\/p>\n<p>Now we are also entering a period of rain and cold, I am now taking a wild guess but I believe that mobilized units have worse equipment than previous cold periods and that this time autumn and winter can hit the Russians hard.<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine&#8217;s SOF, partisans and reconnaissance are a constantly growing group.<br \/>\nEven territorials now have their own capabilities.<br \/>\nWhile the Russians&#8217; counterparts die in the ditches at the front as infantry.<br \/>\nDarkness is their friend and they will ravage one more season with the newly mobilized Russians.<\/p>\n<p>Evidence 827 \u2013 Kremlin representatives admit that RU actively supported H..as attack, end of the tie, boxers and windows for this person.

Except in Turkey, where the weapon used was an angry mob.<\/p>\n<p>Then you can believe what you want about the American destroyer and the two missiles and drone that were shot down. Does anyone believe that the Houthi rebels sent a drone against I..el from Yemen, are they world leaders in long-range drones?<\/p>\n<p>A small indication of where this is heading is that the US has just announced that their citizens should leave several MENA countries.<\/p>\n<p>To summarize, the war in Ukraine is heading towards an eventful late summer that will make Putin binge on omeprazole, but Russia and China managed to escalate anyway despite a rather shaky start, but the West sitting on its hands and pretending nothing was happening was just enough.<\/p>\n<p>If the West had sent everything at the low point in 2022, this would never have happened; if Ukraine had received everything before its spring offensive so it had crushed the Russians, this would never have happened (sure, doubt the last one because the mines would have been there anyway\u2026).<\/p>\n<p>After 2014, Putin was welcome in the fine rooms of the West \u2013 that was our Chamberlain moment.<\/p>\n<p>Now we stand on the brink of a global conflict, and from where I sit in my parents\u2019 basement room, it looks like it will continue to escalate.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a video from Iran where heavy rockets are being moved.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/maks_nafo_fella\/status\/1715100673602163087?s=46&amp;t=0khXAR5__UGVduwrGWaHdQ\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/maks_nafo_fella\/status\/1715100673602163087?s=46&amp;t=0khXAR5__UGVduwrGWaHdQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We must not forget Africa in the middle of all this and that Russia is actively destabilizing some of the world\u2019s most fragile countries and that no one cares.<\/p>\n<p>A reflection on the West\u2019s passivity here \u2013 if I, in my job in Africa where we are tasked with monitoring contractors, had seen my colleague dining with the contractor\u2019s PM \u2013 I would have acted immediately on suspicion of irregularities.<br \/>\nIf you, working in the Green Party, had seen your colleague having lunch with a representative from the SD \u2013 you would have acted immediately.<br \/>\nAnd so on.<br \/>\nIt is such an obvious betrayal by Orban, who has EU and NATO membership to manage, that it is completely incomprehensible that it has no consequences when he sits in cozy meetings with Putin.<br \/>\nYes, I know that you cannot just throw out clauses, but we didn\u2019t need to pay Hungary all the grants, and why is he still invited to everything as an honored head of state in the West.<\/p>\n<p>Reaching the point where this will not de-escalate does not mean that we will be standing at a mob armory fingering AK4s in about half a year.<\/p>\n<p>Ukraine will push Russia back to the 1991 borders, and Russia will no longer be able to threaten Europe in this war. Now the EU is not completely lost, so we will ensure that the Baltics, Poland, Finland, the Baltic Sea, and Ukraine get a sufficiently strong defense, and the EU countries that do not contribute will provide funds so these countries can bear the cost \u2013 our eastern border will be formidable.<br \/>\nSweden will have a prominent role in the defense of the Baltic Sea, and the USA or UK will top up with a destroyer permanently if needed.<\/p>\n<p>However, our navies, air forces, and standing army units will likely contribute something to form some kind of Western defense force that will be needed in various parts of the world for a few years ahead together with the US counterpart.<\/p>\n<p>Asia is probably next after MENA unless Steven Pearsson is lying in his book \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>Everyday life for all of us ordinary people will continue, but the world as a whole is heading towards worse times because it increasingly feels like the die is cast, but we shall see, hope for de-escalation is the last thing to die!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-1\">\n<h3>11:45 \u2013 Johan No.1<\/h3>\n<p>Sorry \u2013 it should have said 75 brigade commanders, 360 battalion commanders have died.<\/p>\n<p>Brigade commanders are not the first to go and die, and if you do a completely unscientific calculation and say that 360 battalions have died together with their battalion commanders, you get a neat number.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-1\">\n<h3>11:48 \u2013 Johan No.1<\/h3>\n<p>My second post is in the freezer, tried to clean up the words but it didn\u2019t work\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-1\">\n<h3>12:38 \u2013 MatsExtrude<\/h3>\n<p>Thanks, most things seem to be going in the right direction!<\/p>\n<p>China is probably selling securities because they are starting to run out of money..<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-2\">\n<h4>12:43 \u2013 Johan No.1<\/h4>\n<p>Thanks for the thread discussion MXT about China \ud83d\udc4d\ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>Yes, probably, and to claim that it is war preparation is extrapolating too far.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-1\">\n<h3>12:45 \u2013 MatsExtrude<\/h3>\n<p>Gloomy but thoughtful post.
