I'd just like to say I don't intend on ever making a long video like this again. It's just I had a lot to say/share that I couldn't due to focusing on school this past week. Sadly all of May will be like this because of my finals. But I segmented this video using timestamps so you can click on whichever portion you'd like.
What subjects do you do at school? I'm not interested in general, just whether it is related to what you do here. Because I consider your analyses to be the best I've seen online!
Sure, guys like Dima on Military Summary add other important stuff, because he lives in Belarus and pools more sources. But his military understanding is, well, on the NATO level ;-D
And HistoryLegend is really exceptional in his weekly military analysis. Then there are interviewes with guys like Jacqeus Baud (a Swiss Colonel lifelong specialized on understanding Soviet warfare doctrine, which is an unfair advantage).
But in your genre of looking at this in terms of how open source reports can be mapped, you are really the star of this tragically bloody show! An indespensible complementary to the others mentioned.
@bjorntorlarsson Well they don't really teach anything related to modern warfare in high school lol
@@Theti Are you in high school?
Well then, the US military has hope of a better future right there.
Strange, all replies in this thread appears double to me. Anyway, Google bugs.
Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to put all this information together. Much appreciated and I hope you do well on your finals.
Thanks for excellent reporting and analysis 🇩🇿🇷🇺🇩🇿🇷🇺🇩🇿🇷🇺🇩🇿
Thanks THETI. Your more granular analysis and order of battle is head and shoulders above the other miltary channels. It's well worth the wait. Looking foreward to your coverage in the eventful months ahead.
Good luck on finals brother
“The amount of school work I have to contend with” 😂😂
Funny af😂
Ukrainian elite units are experienced as in having experienced heavy losses.
That was a phenomenal report man . Well done
Narrative at the end of the week... "Well Kharkov is not that strategically important anyway" -CNN -NBC etc etc
Narrative at the end of the war... "Well Ukraine was not that strategically important anyway" -CNN -NBC etc etc
The only thing the US cares about is Crimea. If they lost everything in Ukraine but could take Crimea, the would do it in an instant.
vovchansk is not strategically important
thanks for your admirable efforts - well done!
Thanks for your hard work
This is just what Rtd Col MacGregor said it would go.
You did a great job. What I like are the units amblems and names you put on the map. Continue with your work, you have a bright future.
The world needs young, talented, honest people like you
Love these man keep it up ❤
Thankyou for excellent reporting young man
They stole the money bro. This is Ukraine.
The good thing is though that people behind that "front companies" who steal money, are Ukrainians, not Russians, so money stays in the family.
Shows good capability to compile information, understanding and analytics for an "aficionado". Good traits for excelling in education and professionally. 👍
Ukrainians just squandered money they have got allocated for fortifications. And a few Ukrainian mega yachts in Monaco's Yacht Harbour.
Cocaine whores and bar tabs
They didn't use much armour and lead the assault with light infantry supported by airstrikes and artillery and various precision strikes. I read it was lead by spetznaz and elite infantry in small groups. I think even though the attack was expected, the composition of the Russians force allowed for a concealed and rapid concentration, thus give an element of surprise.
if "surprise" gains more than a tactical success (hit&run) the defender or the defenses are not "sufficient"
until the fpv-threat couldn´t be "contained" AVs may be staying in the role of fire support ... and shock-units like in ww1 are the most efficient tool (backed with enough instand available "breakthrough" firepower)
Good luck on your studies career and life 👍
Thanks Theti 👍👍👍
school must come first...
all the best in your endeavors
thanks for todays update
The General of the 93 Brigade (Ukr) said that nearly all the money was stolen. So not just 3%
misused rather.
It still amazes me how you’re able to do such an excellent work in your analysis and coverage of the battle field etc, while at the same time pursuing your studies. I definitely appreciate your work and admire your dedication. Thank you for keeping the world well informed 👍.
Excellent. Virtually no one goes into OOB’s.
Dont worry bro, the length just means you're being detailed....carry on ;)
When the special force Akhmat arrives, you know they're serious.
"Unpunished Evil Grows," Ukrainian proverb
Russian strategic reserve approaches 400000 men nowadays. So, they committed not even 10 % of their available forces.
" Cat and mouse " game with Ukrainians.
The Russian are the engineers and masters of the witches cauldron.
Thanks mate!
Awesome video.
The Russian attack vector that is aimed closest to Kharkov is down a ridgeline that is a little bit lower than ridgelines to the West that also head in the Kharkov direction but there is one big difference - the ridgeline Russia is on now is kind of dead-end if you with to attack Kharkov from it. Those more western ridglines that they are not attacking, like the one with E105 road on you can see in this map, go directly to the City of Kharkov (which is in a valley) and dominate it from just a couple kilometers away. Those western ridglines are where ukrain invested heavily in fortifications, not here, and I think that was actually wise. The most western russian attack vector goes along a ridgeline that ends at the little village of Lypsti which spills out into a larger valley that is still 20km from Kharkov. So when the Russians get to Lyptsi it is kind of a dead end with regards to capturing or pressuring Kharkov, they will be forced to scale those fortified western ridgelines I am speaking about from the valley 300 feet below them.
So the Ukrainians just didn't do a lot of work on this area I think mainly because as I said it is kind of dead-end at least as far as Kharkov is concerned.
And really what Ukraine should have done was lightly reinforce these villages and slowly pull back trading territory for time while inflicting damage as the attacking force pulls a little away from its AD and EW systems on the attack.
But because the Ukrainain army and government is driven not by military considerations but those of narrative and optics they feel compelled to rob peter to pay paul instead of letting these meaningless villages be captured. And this is exactly what Russia wants. They get to fight all these competent Ukrianain units pulled from other areas not where they are deeply dug in but in these new makeshift defensive systems they were just sent to in the last 24 hours.
I also agree with others that there may be a second objective, to eventually put pressure on the Kupiansk sector and again draw in Ukrainian reserves to fight not in there deeply fortified positions but in makeshift positions. I don't think Kharkov was ever an objective but just getting near it caused so much pressure on the Ukr govt they had to react poorly.
Zelensky reminds me The Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail priceless scene.
"Your arm's off!"
"No it isn't!"
“Look you stupid bastard you’ve got no arms left!”
"It's a flesh wound. I've had worse.
"Well what's that then?"
"I’m invincible!”
“You’re a looney.”
“Alright, we’ll call it a draw!”
19:50---It says something about the necessity for dispersion in consideration of enhanced lethality of postmodern weaponry that a grouping of "dozens" of soldiers road-marching together in one area is considered a "massive amount." Rather difficult to envision "human wave attacks" being made with this sort of force distribution.
Those who hand themselves in will be the brave and smart ones.
November 5, 2024. Trump only Trump.Stop that mess before WW3
Trump is an Israel goyim servant, he most likely would only help to escalate WW3
Dr Marina Miron of the war studies department of Kings College London said the other day in an interview on DW News that Russia had committed only 5 battalions - around 5,000 troops - to the Kharkhiv offensive. I wonder what you think of this statement since she seems to me to be the most sober analyst used but the media in this war.
Odd about the budget comments, I read that his role would be to further the transition of Russia to a total war economy.
A more broad idea would be one connected to putins earlier warning about russia needing to avoid running into the same problem as the soviet union due to military spending. This guy is here to held avoid this issue.
The main defensive line still yet to be reached if it does get there, it doesnt seem a serious attempt to.
after the seizure of territories, there were photos of "defensive structures"...which were the teeth of dragons thrown into one big pile)))
Who is making the defensive
What’s your major in college? It better not be gender studies.
😂😂😂🤣🤣💄👍👍👍🥃🍺🥃🍺
That was yours, freshman year
one set of trenches that Z toured 2 months ago were 'penthouse' level quality - I assume it was the only line they actually built - so they spared no expense on it so it acted as a misdirection to hide huge levels of corruption.
I think the bulk of the 2bn defenses was stolen. The drone flyovers of Sumy show mountains of dumped dragons teeth there too.
Yes, massive Russian advances .. and to think that real, the massive Russian Federation military force, in the background, hasn't even been deployed. The Russian Federation forces are so good, so capable that they achieve all these advances with just 30,000 troops, spread out over a huge territory.
Imagine, what will happen when the 850,000 Russian Federation forces enter the battlefields of Ukraine. Then the Zelensky Nato show will be extinguished very quickly. But Russia plays out it's moves carefully and with major concern about human life... always.. even enemy lives.
The link to your map doesnt work???
MR T sais "dont be a fool stay in school " good job young man that is important there will always be war and youtube but you were missed and we are one solar blast away from a new reality buckle buckarooos its gonna be a bumpy ride ...... hope to see you on the other side
Lol - Release the kriken
The spetsnatsz regiment is named after the norse mythical creature krAken.
Why don’t you have an outline around the conflict?
A day in the life of Zelensky. Bodybuilding session with personal tutor, then breakfast and steroid injection. Put on tight green t-shirt, desert boots and cargo pants. Text Borris Johnson a couple of jokes. Stand in front of a green screen demanding F16s and patriot missiles. Tanks etc. Costume change to slightly baggy black sweatshirt. Lunch. Zoom call with Sean Penn remembering to act concerned if he mentions democracy or starts crying. Sniff a couple of lines. Spend hour in mirror rehersing hard man voice. Sign more paperwork cancelling any elections. Sniff a fat line. Speech, then spend some family time in the evening, remembering to compliment the wife on new Roberto cavali dress and matching Hermes Birkin, handbag.Browse the latest script sent by Washington. Then off to bed and dream of how important he will be if he drags everyone into ww3. (shamelessly stolen for you)
but perhaps already or in the future - in his sleep the pictures of his killed & crippled citizens will haunt him
no matter who Ukraine drafts or forces to the front. You cant make soldiers out of guys and women who just want to run and not fight u cant make them fight...confronted with FABS and defeat...they wont do it...the Russians will only accelerate /..
Daniel 11:40 KJV
And at the time of the end shall the king of the south [America] push at him: [northern armies] and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.
Who is the King of the North...What do you think this scripture is saying.
@@deeward5572 Prophetically, I believe that the [armies] of the North, being encroached [pushed] upon by NATO, the armies of the South. But pertaining to the Antichrist, ("arms shall stand on his (Antichrist) part" Daniel 11:31) in this instance Russia, but which also include Iran, China, North Korea. Because America is below the Arctic circle, it is the king of the South
When you build fortifications that aren’t all interconnected they can be easily flanked and encircled by a large force so hence the reason they aren’t very effective. When you are being flanked even though you are in a fortified position you have to withdraw . Simple you can’t get encircled and try to defend against a large force hitting you from more then one side. Also we all know Ukraine is lacking manpower they can’t even get another group of fresh fighters in the amount they need from their population. They already pulled on that multiple times and lost them . Russia has way more population left they could pull from if needed they have way more weapons and extreme amount more ability to make new and more weapons which is why this war is over . Once Russia gains an advantage in those key factors it’s done . It will only get worse for Ukraine now. Which is why they shouldn’t be listening to the west at all anymore and literally beg for a peace deal they need to surrender and hope for best deal . Longer they wait worse outcome they will get and the more people from a generation they will lose . The country will be crippled for a long time already with the amount of losses taken. Anyone who actually cares for these people would be demanding a peace deal be reached . The leaders are going to be overthrown by their own military soon enough if this does not happen. You can tell their desire to fight in this war has collapsed significantly. Motivation is way down look when these elite forces were suppose to go to certain breakthroughs over the past month and literally defied the order. This is a lost war for the west and Ukraine already just waiting til something happens to get the agreement to end this conflict.
A long video is OK, there was a LOT of news to cover.
The Russian invaders have lost at least 4000 troops so far. They have taken what amounts to a few villages with a couple of streets that were never meant to be defended and suffered catastrophic casualties. The Russian invaders are now effectively in a kill box. And they haven't even reached the areas where the main defensive lines are located. Russian forces will gradually weaken while Ukrainian forces will only strengthen as 60 billion dollars' worth of aid reaches the front line. Every week I hear the same thing about how Ukraine is finished and Russia is winning this illegal war but the truth is we are into the 3rd year of the war and Russian unlawful gains have been minimal. Russia is approaching 500,000 casualties, how anyone in their right mind supports such slaughter is beyond understanding. And it will only get worse. For the last 7 months Ukraine has been fighting with virtually no ammunition for its weapon systems and still, Russia cannot defeat the Ukrainians. What do you think is going to happen when they start receiving the new military aid packages, including F-16s from the West? Russia is finished it just does not know it yet.
Sounds like a lawless comment!!
@@gandhi9936 A lawless comment for a lawless Russian regime and country.
With a name like truthseeker you should do what your name says. Stay away from mainstream west news reporting and broaden your horizons.
@@johnathanmorris314 Do you think I should start watching and listening to Russian News? The Empire of Lies? Russia gave us casualty figures over a year ago and said they had suffered 6000 killed. Does that sound like the truth? You are not allowed to say this war is a war if you do it's 7 years in jail. Independent journalists have been murdered and forced to flee the country for trying to tell the truth. The opposition has been sent to the gulag for twenty years for attempting to explain that the war is illegal and unjust. If I were you, I would stop talking rubbish. Everything in my comment is the truth whether you like it or not.
