I think one of the reasons Zaluzhny was fired was because he probably pushed hard for a withdrawal from Avdiivka, which wasn't what Zelensky wanted for political and symbolic reasons, so he put Sirsky in his place as a guy who will do what he is told irregardless of the cost in lives.
Its more like something Russia is doing right now, but they cant do it to the capacity of the soviet union tho since russia isnt as capable as the soviets
Bakhmut was important because the AFU had to move many units ready for the Zaporizhzhia offensive. The result was that the Russians had time to build defensive lines and the AFU had to delay the offensive for months, which ultimately failed...now the russian play a bakhmut 2.0 again and the AFU fell for the trap again
This logic doesn't work. Russi also had to send vast amounts of resources to Bakhmut wich prevented them from building up more men. Ukraine was also using that time to build up. This and the equipment and units used in the offensive are different from the ones used in a defensive battle. There is no 4D chess
@@Testimony_Of_JTF again you are totally wrong because your sources are the actual propaganda. Russia only used convicts in the battle while signing in a lot of new fresh personnel to the armed froces due to the great sign up bonuses. Their losses werent a hundred thousand men and they used easily dispensable personnel while building up offensive power with actual normal volunteers back inside Russia. During the offensive Ukraine sacrificed newly created 3 NATO trained offensive brigades to recapture Bahmut, which failed and caused the offensives first punch in the south to fail immediately. Americans even wanted UAF to use all of their froces down south. They didnt because of Bakhmut. "This and the equipment and units used in the offensive are different from the ones used in a defensive battle." Well you genious why didnt Ukraine rather than defending the city started building up pressure down south in Zaphoruzhia? They couldnt because the new brigades were reserved for the offensive and the old ones were dying for strategically unimportant Bakhmut. You literally are copy pasting the same thing under all the comments you dont like. Thats actual bot behaviour and looks like you are still pretty high on copium on this issue.
He can't into analytics, it's really bad even from the "unbiased" point of view, flooded with misleading information, deliberately avoiding mentioning the facts to paint a picture as "Ukraine is on the brink of full collapse" which is laughably untrue, even with the loss of Avdiivka. Kremlin's losses in Avdiivka ever since the October 2023 were 13:1, a verifiable information based on the evidences. Kremlin experiences terrible, if not complete, lack of rotation, as the mobilized have become the main fighting force and remain fighting there with no rotation or morale. The Ukrainian forces have built the robust defensive lines in Donetsk oblast which in no way will physically allow any "game-changing" breakthroughs after the loss of Avdiivka, especially at the pace that kremlin is advancing with unimaginably high losses. None of this was mentioned in any of his videos.
@@lordfoxquaad1611ah yes 13:1 in favor of ukraine Ok, so the side with full artillery superiority outnumbering them 5:1 and mechanized superiority Vs the side who is complaining about mass equipment shortages And your telling me the side that is getting pummeled by artillery every minute has a 13:1 advantage?

And at last, maybe if the United States weren't meddling with the aid supplies because of the pro-kremlin trumpists, Ukraine didn't have to minimize the usage of the artillery shells, resulting in what we see today, an inability to defend Avdiivka as efficiently as last year.

Just a note here: in military science when an army surrounds their enemy it's called "envelopment". "Double envelopment" happens when the attacking army surrounds the defending army at the two "flanks" (flank being the "side" of the army) simultaneously.
@@EuropeanSoyboy I think the difference would be that enveloping would just be wrapping around but not necessarily surrounding them, while encirclement would be the forces getting completely surrounded and separated.
Yes! Make more. Zrsky sent reserves, including Azov. They were intercepted in two towns, west of Avdeevka. Several Iskanda missiles and Smersh missiles with cluster warheads inflicted many casualties.
Very much. It's one of the reasons why I am going more often to see his videos. On my news channels, anchors constantly talk Ukrania winning, Russia taking heavy losses, victory soon. Not that I'm saying I wouldn't want that. Far from it. But it's honestly a breath of fresh air, have someone look at a map, do some investigations and then give much more detailed answer as to what is going on.
The situation for Ukraine is going from bad to worse. I think they put all their eggs in the summer offensive basket. When that failed they changed their posture to a defensive one. Also, the Ukrainian troops are battle exhausted and many units haven’t been rotated for rest for nearly 2 years. That takes an enormous toll on your fighting capability. Russia, on the other hand, has the luxury of ample reserves and has swapped their frontline units with fresh ones. Ukraine cannot keep up this war where the numbers are, quite frankly, solely in Russia’s favor. Other countries have sent token soldiers to help bolster the Ukrainian Army. Sadly, tombstones will adorn their cemeteries quite soon.😮
after avdiivka falls, I think a breakthrough will occur somewhere on the lyman-kupiansk axis. through most of last year, russia was continuously blowing up the bridges on the river behind that front, so there could be a reverse-kherson sort of thing happening there this year.
I think Russia may go for a full on assault on that front this summer rather than just keeping their reserves saved up for a Ukrainian attack. If the western intel is true and if Russia wants to open a new front, they may couple this assault with a new offensive towards Izium from the north. They dont have a chance at regaining everything they lost at the end of 2022 with the Kharkiv counteroffensive however they may clear the eastern portion of Oskil and take some towns in north eastern Kharkiv including Kupyansk. It all the depends on the Ukrainian will to mobilize. They dont have the sufficent troops to hold Bakhmut, Kremmina, Kupyansk, Avdiivka and maybe even Vugledar. If no new aid packages pass the war will come full circle.
After the encirclement of Mauripol, collapse at Sverodonetsk and Lysychansk and same for Bakhmut one would expect Ukraine wouldn’t mess up as badly as Avdiivka. Onto the next city Ig
You could say so. But what we have seen in this war is that the lack of a proper air force to establish air superiority, then the war turned into a WW1 style war. Both sides have very good defensive weapons, and offensive is really challenging. Ukraine have been given artillery that reach further than the russians, but it seem to have been countered with drones.
What a coincidence, 90,000 NATO troops happen to be performing training exercises in Eastern Europe, the largest since the Cold War, right around the time that Ukraine looks like their back is to the wall.
NATO doesn't plan to directly intervene, that would be an act of war. They are increasing the amount of troops in Eastern Europe because of new members and Russia starting new imperialist projects
I've been following the battle of Avdiivka for some time by sometimes checking the wikipedia page on the battle. I've seen thet recently after the breakthrough of January 20, many more things are happening and I'm checking the page daily, where I keep finding new information. By the looks of it, when this battle is over, I think this will be the new longest battle in history.

Ukraine is genuinely just repeating bakhmut. But honestly it could turn out worse because russia is REALLY close to fully encircling the city. And Ukraine doesn't have the resources (or morale) to be losing in another mariupol
Russia has already effectively encircled the city, they’ve either taken any roads usable for resupply or have them under fire control effectively making any resupply or withdrawal attempts extremely risky. Unless Ukraine can push back the forces on the outskirts it’s basically over for Avdiivka.

About that southern Ukrainian fortified position: it's already surrounded. Not physically, but russian soldiers can already have an eye contact with the ones on the other side. According to pro-russian sources, russian forces are already half-way to the last mud road to Avdiivka, a little more than a kilometer left. Also, I was very amazed by that southeastern russian advance they made in January. Just imagine, for months they were cleaning and preparing the pipe they randomly found underground, then they passed about 2 kilometers in it, attacked the enemy from behind and took all the nearby area, because for days ukrainian forces didn't even know what was going on here! I really like this video, please make more of these, it's much better than just showing the Wikipedia info!
Bakhmut was strategically important. Russia only lost convicts and extremist POS, while Ukraine fed its best brigades first to its defense and then to its recapture. Both failed, caused the summer offensive to fail miserably. Ukraine was never going to reach the Azov Sea however they could have at least taken Tokmak if Azov and Aidar was down south helping the attack in full force. Syrsky and the clown Zelensky fell in the trap. Now there is no feasible way Ukraine can win back its territory. Avdiivka for the most part will probably either turn into a gruesome massacre of the UAF who may try to retreat. If they dont they will get surrounded and will probably surrender directly.
I understand why people accuse pro Russian guys of being all bots. You guys literally repeat the exact same stuff over and over again like a broken record. No, Russia losing massive amounts of manpower on a strategically unimportant city is not 4D chess. Bakhmut did not dramatically delay the counter offensive, different units with different equipment were at play. Bakhmut was just dumb. No 4D chess or anything. They just decided to take a city no matter what and then invent propaganda to make it into a great victory.
I do think Ukraine is losing btw. It's just that the pro Russian side always needs to make *everything* a feat of strategic genius. I even remenber some retard on twitter trying to dowplay the Wagner insurection
@@Testimony_Of_JTF "pro Russian" assuming is the name of your game my friend. "Russia losing massive amounts of manpower" I dont trust the Ukrainian MOD numbers pal. Also as Ive said convicts and extremist sociopaths died on the Russian side. "Bakhmut did not dramatically delay the counter offensive" as per the United States understanding you are speaking out of your ass and also Zaluzhnys begging sessions to Zelensky about withdrawing also told a different story. Plus fuck all the copious BS you wrote. Why didnt Ukraine give up Bakhmut after it got surrounded and why didnt Ukraine rather than sending brigade after brigade into Bakhmut, didnt start the sahping operations to the counteroffensive back in winter 2022-2023. If they had amassed a huge number of troops there they may have even succeded entirely in the attack. But no Ukraine had to look like it wasnt loosing any territory anymore. "No 4D chess or anything." I agree for the first months. Initially the Russian side was just going to plow through it like the rest of Donbas. However Prigozhin came out of nowhere suddenly and became an icon of the war along with Wagner. Afterwards all eyes were on Bakhmut. It was pretty much thought by everyone that the Ukrainians were going to keep destroying Russian lines after the Russian defeat at Lyman and the retreat from Kherson by just beginning a new Kherson style attack towards Tokmak and so on. There werent any fortifications back then but they sent their troops to the meatgriner at Bakhmut. Plus Syrsky used up 3 offensive brigades to capture it. The best of Azov, Aidar and Kraken fought there and got fucked wtihout even taking a single building inside the town back. Seems like a really stupid decision to use up a third of your offensive NATO trained power to take an unimportant city that only caused Russians suffering. "They just decided to take a city no matter what" yes as far as I can understand the weird undifined Russian goals are to at the very least somehow capture the "annexed" regions so the town was eventually going to fall. "then invent propaganda to make it into a great victory." both sides did propaganda but the results and the chronology as Ive explained tells the story of how Russia managed to distract Ukraine twice. Once in winter 2022-23 and summer 2023. Also WTF dude its a great victory, both sides lost so many men and so many people that the city became a symbol and Russians were able to hold it back during the summer counteroffensive. So in short nothing you have said makes sense and you are the actual bot who is parroting the proUA telegram nonsense.
this was really helpful to me because even though i watch videos on ukraine i didn't quite understand what was so important about this battle, i would love to see more videos like this!
Finally, a creator and a comment section which doesnt scream about how ukraine is going to steamroll russia and how russia ran out of ammo for the 7th time in the last three weeks. I am not pro-russia nor ukraine, i am just trying to be realistic, and i am glad people are becoming more informed about how this is not a guaranteed win for ukraine, and that russia is not going to magically collapse anytime soon. From what i have seen so far, ukraine has started losing somewhat. Its a slow process, but its there. As another commenter has pointed out, they are basically in crisis mode and putting anyone they can on the frontlines, while russia has plenty of reserve. Foreign support can only do so much if you dont have anyone to use/man them.
is ukraine suicidal now? why get rid of one of the best generals you have access to in favor of somebody who does basically what russia does but sorely lacking what russia has?
@@monroevian yeah, but the generals lincoln replaced were more or less really incompetent, far too cautious and sometimes screwed over by the people under them. ukraine and zelensky had one of the most competent people as general already, so pretty much anything else would be a downgrade in comparison.
slowly but surely they're starting to get it. sadly it'll take another 6-12 months before reality kicks in fully. but the west doesnt care, it's not their citizens dying.

Just imagine, for months they were cleaning and preparing the pipe they randomly found underground, then they passed about 2 kilometers in it, attacked the enemy from behind and took all the nearby area, because for days ukrainian forces didn't even know what was going on here!
I really like this video, please make more of these, it's much better than just showing the Wikipedia info!
It's not just surrounded, even the pro Ukrainian map shows it as not existing anymore
Videos like these are good every now and then!
Bakhmut was strategically important. Russia only lost convicts and extremist POS, while Ukraine fed its best brigades first to its defense and then to its recapture. Both failed, caused the summer offensive to fail miserably. Ukraine was never going to reach the Azov Sea however they could have at least taken Tokmak if Azov and Aidar was down south helping the attack in full force. Syrsky and the clown Zelensky fell in the trap. Now there is no feasible way Ukraine can win back its territory. Avdiivka for the most part will probably either turn into a gruesome massacre of the UAF who may try to retreat. If they dont they will get surrounded and will probably surrender directly.
I understand why people accuse pro Russian guys of being all bots. You guys literally repeat the exact same stuff over and over again like a broken record.
No, Russia losing massive amounts of manpower on a strategically unimportant city is not 4D chess. Bakhmut did not dramatically delay the counter offensive, different units with different equipment were at play.
Bakhmut was just dumb. No 4D chess or anything. They just decided to take a city no matter what and then invent propaganda to make it into a great victory.
I do think Ukraine is losing btw. It's just that the pro Russian side always needs to make *everything* a feat of strategic genius. I even remenber some retard on twitter trying to dowplay the Wagner insurection
@@Testimony_Of_JTF "pro Russian" assuming is the name of your game my friend.
"Russia losing massive amounts of manpower" I dont trust the Ukrainian MOD numbers pal. Also as Ive said convicts and extremist sociopaths died on the Russian side.
"Bakhmut did not dramatically delay the counter offensive" as per the United States understanding you are speaking out of your ass and also Zaluzhnys begging sessions to Zelensky about withdrawing also told a different story. Plus fuck all the copious BS you wrote. Why didnt Ukraine give up Bakhmut after it got surrounded and why didnt Ukraine rather than sending brigade after brigade into Bakhmut, didnt start the sahping operations to the counteroffensive back in winter 2022-2023. If they had amassed a huge number of troops there they may have even succeded entirely in the attack. But no Ukraine had to look like it wasnt loosing any territory anymore.
"No 4D chess or anything." I agree for the first months. Initially the Russian side was just going to plow through it like the rest of Donbas. However Prigozhin came out of nowhere suddenly and became an icon of the war along with Wagner. Afterwards all eyes were on Bakhmut. It was pretty much thought by everyone that the Ukrainians were going to keep destroying Russian lines after the Russian defeat at Lyman and the retreat from Kherson by just beginning a new Kherson style attack towards Tokmak and so on. There werent any fortifications back then but they sent their troops to the meatgriner at Bakhmut. Plus Syrsky used up 3 offensive brigades to capture it. The best of Azov, Aidar and Kraken fought there and got fucked wtihout even taking a single building inside the town back. Seems like a really stupid decision to use up a third of your offensive NATO trained power to take an unimportant city that only caused Russians suffering.
"They just decided to take a city no matter what" yes as far as I can understand the weird undifined Russian goals are to at the very least somehow capture the "annexed" regions so the town was eventually going to fall.
"then invent propaganda to make it into a great victory." both sides did propaganda but the results and the chronology as Ive explained tells the story of how Russia managed to distract Ukraine twice. Once in winter 2022-23 and summer 2023. Also WTF dude its a great victory, both sides lost so many men and so many people that the city became a symbol and Russians were able to hold it back during the summer counteroffensive.
So in short nothing you have said makes sense and you are the actual bot who is parroting the proUA telegram nonsense.
@@Testimony_Of_JTFwhat about 5D?
We Need more of this!
unravelling rather than unfolding ..
I enjoy this type of video
Loved the video my friend, make more like this
Love this type of video
Please make more of these videos ,it was really good
Great video.
this was really helpful to me because even though i watch videos on ukraine i didn't quite understand what was so important about this battle, i would love to see more videos like this!
You should do more in depth analysis like this
Nice format
Yes, keep doing this videos please
For the 1st time I hear your voice!
Definitely like this type of content
Stop the slaughter. PEACE NOW/
Love this!
More of this, ofcourse!
More videos like this please
I really like videos like this!
this a great video, but I think it should be used for acute situations like these, and not a daily briefing
on great heavens
Can we have more video like this please I enjoyed this one.
I like this kind of video!
Skitbra video. Gillar verkligen att du tar dig an saken ifrån olika perspektiv på ett nyanserat sätt.
Finally, a creator and a comment section which doesnt scream about how ukraine is going to steamroll russia and how russia ran out of ammo for the 7th time in the last three weeks.
I am not pro-russia nor ukraine, i am just trying to be realistic, and i am glad people are becoming more informed about how this is not a guaranteed win for ukraine, and that russia is not going to magically collapse anytime soon.
From what i have seen so far, ukraine has started losing somewhat. Its a slow process, but its there. As another commenter has pointed out, they are basically in crisis mode and putting anyone they can on the frontlines, while russia has plenty of reserve. Foreign support can only do so much if you dont have anyone to use/man them.
I loved it!
I think that this way of making videos is a very good option for us, it feels more natural and is, for me, more absorbing.
is ukraine suicidal now? why get rid of one of the best generals you have access to in favor of somebody who does basically what russia does but sorely lacking what russia has?
Im getting zelensky is desperate to get someone who can actually do more, even though the guy who was already in charge was literally goated
You know how Lincoln cycled through generals until one started working in the American Civil War? That
@@monroevian yeah, but the generals lincoln replaced were more or less really incompetent, far too cautious and sometimes screwed over by the people under them. ukraine and zelensky had one of the most competent people as general already, so pretty much anything else would be a downgrade in comparison.
I hope you make more videos like this
Which website is this?
I think deep state and happy Valentine's Day
I want to know too
Looks like Deepstate
It is Deep state
I do like this type!
Good video!
More of these videos!
Billions dumped into this country
zaluzhny was fired mainly because he is more popular than zelensky and therefor a political threat to him
*Geniune Fear*
Please make more of this kind of video I thought it was cool
Make more of these please
Do more of these.
Suriyak Maps is a good source
I want more vids like this
Yes 👍
Make more!
yes, more please
Yes, more videos like this
avdiika about to be 3 starred after a loooooong time,
"Ukrainian morale is low" i thought they are winning according from twitter,reddit and CNN😂
do you read what actual supporters of ukraine say on twitter, reddit, and cnn? they don't present it well
idiots say Ukraine is winning
slowly but surely they're starting to get it. sadly it'll take another 6-12 months before reality kicks in fully. but the west doesnt care, it's not their citizens dying.
Yes please more
Yes @more!!!!!!
I think you should make more of these types of videos once in a while
nice video idea
You predicted the future.
I would watch more commentary videos of yours. At least for the duration of this apparently critical phase.
Its joever in avdivvka
