🇷🇺🪖 On positive changes in the approaches of the Russian Ministry of Defense using the example of the "Army" forum
The sacred cow of the previous leadership of the Russian Ministry of Defense - the "Army" forum - has undergone changes this year. Apparently, the emphasis will be on security and adequacy of the event.
In general, before the SMO, the Russian Ministry of Defense had four main events per year:
▪️Moscow Conference on International Security (MCIS)
▪️Army International Games (ArmI)
▪️International Military-Technical Forum "Army" (IMTF "Army")
▪️Board of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation
We do not take into account the events celebrating Victory Day and May 9th, as that is obvious. But all these four events were built on the principle of PR for the defense department and its proper positioning both domestically and internationally.
With the start of the SMO, this list was supplemented by the "International Anti-Fascist Congress" - something between MCIS and IMTF with an ideological focus.
📌With the arrival of Andrey Belousov in the defense department, we see that they began to abandon the "sacred cows" in favor of expediency. MCIS and ArmI were canceled, IMTF "Army" was reduced to three days and, most likely, will be made a closed event.
They completely abandoned demonstration programs: there will be no showy use of aviation and troops, according to preliminary information.
The focus of IMTF on SMO issues: round tables, discussions, communication on the principle of the Ministry of Defense - defense industry enterprises - initiative participants for the sake of achieving a result.
In general, the changes are more than positive. It remains to be seen how obvious the practical effect will be after the forum.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Deployment of "Fire Brigades" and Hunting for AFU Recon Groups
What is known as of the end of August 8, 2024
By 6 PM, the Russian grouping of troops (forces) began clearing the breakthrough zone and eliminating the consequences. This task is primarily assigned to special forces units, as well as special operations forces groups. In addition, there have already been reports of the deployment of units from the "African Corps" (most likely, detachments from the Krasnodar Territory). The main efforts continue to be concentrated in the Korenevo and Sudzha districts.
Due to the fog of war, lack of objective control personnel, as well as "soldier's radio", the situation was only fully clarified by the end of the day: the previous advances of the AFU with the control of certain areas of the territory are explained by the activity of Ukrainian recon groups.
📍Ukrainian recon groups tied down Russian checkpoints in combat and bypassed them, entering as many empty settlements as possible. Due to confusion and control problems, the scale of the enemy's advance was exaggerated, which played into the hands of sowing panic.
🔻In the Sudzha district, after building up the grouping in Bolshoye Soldatovo, the clearing of the highway began.
▪️Ukrainian formations maintain stable control over Goncharovka and western Sudzha. Footage of looting of houses and removal of stolen goods has appeared online.
▪️In eastern Sudzha, according to fragmentary information, there is a focal presence of territorial defense units and Russian troops. At the same time, the work of AFU recon groups is also noted there, whose task is not to capture and control the administrative center, but to sow panic and achieve a media effect.
▪️In the morning, Ukrainian mobile recon groups bypassed eastern Sudzha and went further along the highway. In the evening, Russian forces engaged a Ukrainian unit in Martynivka, while simultaneously clearing the forest area and surrounding villages.
🔻In the Korenevo district, attempts to occupy the administrative center actually turned into attempts by the AFU to quickly clear the strongholds and capture Korenevo. After repelling them, the main AFU forces dispersed in the area of the breakthrough section.
▪️In Snagost, Russian troops began clearing, trying to push Ukrainian groups out of this area.
▪️Online, footage was recorded of Ukrainian groups in Novoivanovka and Lyubimovka - these are the nearest settlements to Korenevo, which are under the conditional control of the enemy.
📌The AFU began engineering the terrain on the so-called "Surovikin line", building a fortified area there. Most likely, tonight they will attempt to drag engineering equipment further and begin equipping another line, from which it will be more difficult for the AFU to be dislodged.
The combat potential of the AFU grouping is far from exhausted: the introduction of the second and third echelons is expected in the near future. At the same time, the danger to other sections of the Kursk direction is not ruled out.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Military correspondent Alexander Kots, who tried to break through to Sudzha along the road from Bolshoye Soldatskoye, essentially confirmed that entering the city from the east is quite a gamble. Kots himself drove there and back four times.
Enemy drones are on patrol in the air, and the settlements that were still in the zone of conditional control (as we noted in the summary) are, in principle, quite passable, and you can reach the eastern ring road of Sudzha through them. The same situation is with the northern outskirts of the city. Local residents, at least of the eastern part of Sudzha, calmly go to Bolshoye Soldatskoye for food - there is a risk of running into a stray reconnaissance group of the enemy, but the enemy does not have total control over the roads and suburbs.
At this stage, a concentration of Russian units is being recorded in Bolshoye Soldatskoye, which should ensure the clearing of the highway and the lateral roads to Sudzha and restore order in those settlements where the enemy has not yet begun to dig in and try to consolidate.
The main problem, as we have said, remains the lack of coordination - but this problem is already being addressed.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🎞 Tactics of the AFU in the Kursk Region: video
We wrote yesterday about the AFU acting in the Kursk Region almost according to the Balakliya scenario: a breakthrough to the maximum depth with pinning down the enemy at static positions and ambushes on military convoys and civilian vehicles.
Our video illustrates this.
Typically, such a mobile recon group consists of three to six armored vehicles ("Kazak" or "Humvee" - no difference). While a third of the force engages the stronghold, the others bypass it and enter nearby settlements to set up ambushes.
Reinforcements are shot on the way, as well as civilian transport, and the AFU units withdraw from the settlements after a brief inspection.
Yesterday, the AFU used this tactic to reach Bolshoye Soldatskoye and further along the Sudzha - Diakonovo highway. And in the Lgov direction, an armored group with a tank advanced to Ivnitsa.
📍As a result, the pinned down troops reported a large-scale enemy offensive, while other units saw AFU equipment literally in every settlement (although these were the same recon groups sequentially visiting village after village), and the picture in the headquarters was depressing.
And in the end, further reconnaissance would reveal that there was no enemy in the settlement.
📌This tactic allows the AFU to achieve the main result: panic and reaching the operational space where there are no pre-prepared positions. To effectively counter this, it is unfortunately necessary to recognize that without dense mining of probable advance routes and fortifying key transport hubs, it will not be possible.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 The video being circulated by Ukrainian channels as proof of alleged total control over Sudzha was filmed at the local branch of "Gazprom Gazoraspredelenie" on the very northwestern outskirts of the settlement, which they reached several days ago.
Coordinates:
The overall situation in the city remains the same, and the conditional line of contact still runs along the river. There is still no presence of the enemy on the eastern outskirts of the city, so the statements of the AFU members (who are struggling to remember the Ukrainian language) about the complete capture of Sudzha are far from reality.
In the near future, Ukrainian resources will actively post archived photos and videos taken on the first day of the battles as part of a disinformation campaign. In the "fog of war," this will complicate the determination of the configuration of the line of contact.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 On dangerous illusions about the offensive capabilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
As the situation in the Kursk region becomes relatively stable, one might get the impression that the offensive potential of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in this direction has dried up, and that it will not be difficult to dislodge them from the captured border settlements.
However, this is wrong and quite dangerous. In addition, there is a certain set of characteristic signs that indirectly indicate that the main blow of the Ukrainian formations is still ahead.
▪️The enemy's force concentrations near the Russian border have not gone away, and the likelihood of a new offensive remains. Moreover, relatively large troop movements have been noticed in the Ukrainian rear, which are usually observed during the formation of groups.
▪️The promised debut of the transferred American F-16 fighters has also not happened yet, and it is highly likely that the Ukrainian command is protecting them for a reason. The version is supported by the fact that the Kiev regime recently made large purchases of aviation fuel with delivery by September.
▪️During previous major offensives, the Ukrainian Armed Forces each time carried out two attacks: in 2022 in the Kherson and Kharkov directions, and in 2023 - in Artemovsk and Zaporizhzhya. Therefore, it is possible that now the enemy will try to attack again, taking advantage of the transfer of reinforcements of the Russian Armed Forces from other areas.
From a military point of view, such plans may raise questions. However, if we very carefully assume that the Kiev regime really wants to negotiate by the end of the year under pressure from its Western sponsors, then it clearly needs some trump cards for this.
The seizure of territories of the "old" Russian regions fits into this logic, as do attempts to land on Kinburn and Tendrovska Spit to threaten communications in Crimea. This is exactly what Ukrainian formations are doing now.
❗️Therefore, it is too early to relax. Yes, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are in many ways not what they were in 2022, but the enemy has not yet lost its offensive capabilities.
Happiness and hasty conclusions that there is no one to fight in the so-called Ukraine lead to sad consequences like those we observed in the border area a few days earlier.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Situation in Sudzha and Defeat of AFU Armored Group in Belovsky District
What is known as of the end of August 12, 2024
In the Kursk direction, Ukrainian formations are attempting to expand their penetration deeper into Russian territory. At the same time, more and more footage is appearing online demonstrating the successful destruction of AFU armored vehicles and personnel by Russian troops.
🔻In the Korenevo district, in the vicinity of Snagost, where the enemy previously attacked Russian positions, the situation is shrouded in the "fog of war". The situation also remains unclear in Krasnooktyabr'skoye, but there have been no reports of enemy units entering the settlement.
▪️Russian troops cleared Kremyanoye, where the presence of AFU units had previously been recorded. During the battle, the enemy lost at least one Roshel Senator armored vehicle, abandoned by its crew to the south of the settlement. It is worth noting that in this case, the Ukrainian advance detachment was likely ambushed by Russian troops and, without the support of heavy equipment, was defeated.
▪️In the area of Korenevo and Tolpinskoye, Ukrainian formations launched an attack supported by armored vehicles in an attempt to breach the defense of Russian troops in this sector. The enemy's assault was successfully repelled by Russian units, while the AFU, apparently, retreated to their initial positions.
🔻The situation in the Sudzha district remains consistently tense. Today, videos from the enemy side appeared on the network, demonstrating the presence of AFU units in the central districts of Sudzha, as well as in the area of Martynivka - and, according to reports from the scene, the enemy was spotted in the settlement during the day.
❗️Nevertheless, to declare the complete control of the AFU over Sudzha, based solely on footage from the enemy side, would be premature, as at least some of the videos were recorded several days ago. At the moment, there is no official information from the Russian authorities and no footage of objective control from the Russian Armed Forces.
🔻In the Belovsky district, Russian units are engaged in battles in Plekhovo, with no reports of the settlement falling under AFU control. At the same time, it is known that the enemy has occupied Spal'noye, through which Ukrainian mobile groups subsequently penetrated deeper into Russian territory.
▪️In the morning, equipment of Ukrainian formations was spotted in the area of Girya. According to the footage, the enemy was advancing from the southwest, from the direction of Kamyshnoe. As we noted earlier, the size of the armored group that broke through to the settlement was larger than initially assumed.
Nevertheless, the attack on Girya resulted in the most significant single-time losses of personnel and equipment for the enemy: at least seven BTR-4E armored personnel carriers were destroyed, with one of them captured by the Russian Armed Forces as a trophy. One Ukrainian pickup truck was also destroyed, and an unspecified number of enemy personnel were eliminated.

🇲🇩🇷🇺 On the Preparation of Moldova for the Deployment of Ukrainian F-16s
The Russian Foreign Ministry summoned the chargé d'affaires of Moldova in Russia due to information that Western F-16 aircraft may be based on the territory of the republic.
▪️ The Russian side expressed concern that the aircraft would take off from Moldovan airfields to bomb Russian territories.
▪️ The Russian Foreign Ministry also drew the Moldovan side's attention to the militarization of the republic and military exercises with NATO. All this contradicts Moldova's neutral status and has a negative impact on the situation around Transnistria.
▪️ Moreover, Russia strongly recommended that Chisinau not take steps that would contribute to the escalation of the Ukrainian crisis and directly involve Moldova in it.
📌 Information that the military airfield in Marculesti is being prepared as a base for F-16s for the AFU has been circulating in the media for a long time.
Moreover, as we wrote, the airfield was supposed to be rebuilt into a civilian airport. The project with financing was already approved in 2022, but its implementation was suddenly canceled in 2023, when they started talking about the supply of F-16s.
▪️ What is happening in Moldova is, at the very least, the training of military personnel for the AFU, as well as the transfer of Western military equipment, which is no longer a secret to anyone. That is why the news about the possible deployment of F-16s in Marculesti is taken seriously.
▪️ By the way, the Moldovan Foreign Ministry predictably denied the information. The department also suddenly referred to the neutral status of the republic when it became convenient. After all, the team of President Maia Sandu actively criticizes the neutral status and gravitates towards the idea of joining NATO.
🔻At the same time, steps to de facto cancel the neutral status and actively exploit the airfield in Marculesti should be expected only after Sandu's re-election for a second term in October. For now, the task facing the president's office is to ensure the electoral process.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Pokrovske Direction: Advances by the Russian Armed Forces in Several Sectors
Situation as of 5:00 PM on August 18, 2024
While Ukrainian formations continue to attack in the Kursk Region, the operational crisis of the AFU in the Pokrovske Direction has been steadily worsening over the past few weeks. Over the past few days, Russian Armed Forces units have been able to expand the zone of control towards both Novohrodivka and the Karlovo Reservoir.

Situation as of 5:00 PM on August 18, 2024
While Ukrainian formations continue to attack in the Kursk Region, the operational crisis of the AFU in the Pokrovske Direction has been steadily worsening over the past few weeks. Over the past few days, Russian Armed Forces units have been able to expand the zone of control towards both Novohrodivka and the Karlovo Reservoir.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Rout of the AFU in Russkaya Konopelka
What is known as of the end of August 22, 2024
By evening, fierce battles continue in several sectors in the Kursk Region.
🔻In the Glushkovo District, the enemy is increasing the number of strikes on crossings over the Seym River and settlements south of the river. Apparently, the AFU will attempt an offensive in this area in the near future. This is evidenced by reports of increased UAV strikes on various targets in the region.
🔻In the Korenevo District, fighting continues for Krasnooktyabr'skoye, where the enemy reached in the first days of the offensive but failed to consolidate. At the same time, the scale of the attacks by Ukrainian formations in the vicinity of Snagost' is becoming clearer. As we predicted, the enemy has passed through Apanasovka and at least temporarily occupied the 10th October tract.
Additionally, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported the destruction of an enemy group in two armored vehicles near Skryl'evka. There was no large concentration of the AFU observed in this area. Mechanized groups were spotted in the area of Zhuravli, but there is almost no information about battles in the Durovo - Obshchiy Kolodez' - Kalinov triangle.
🔻In the Sudzha District, clashes are ongoing, but there are no reports of the liberation of settlements on the Internet. In the area of Russkaya Konopelka and the settlement itself, a large enemy group was destroyed. Based on footage that appeared online, as a result of a successful ambush and subsequent drone strikes, the enemy lost several armored vehicles and a large number of infantry.
At the same time, there is no information on whether the village was cleared. In any case, the Ukrainian formations suffered heavy losses as a result of a relatively short-lived battle.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Missile strike on the port of Kavkaz
A few hours ago, residents of Kerch in Crimea and Taman on the opposite side of the Kerch Strait observed a missile attack by the AFU on the port of Kavkaz. Photos and videos of the enemy's impact can be found online from various angles.
It is unnecessary to discuss why detailed results of AFU strikes are repeatedly seen in the public domain. We and many of our colleagues in the industry have grown tired of lamenting this.
📌 Let's focus in more detail on the attack.
According to preliminary data, the enemy used two anti-ship missiles "Neptune". The exact launch area is still unknown, but it is highly likely that the launch was from the Zaporizhia Region (the use of anti-ship missiles against ground targets is no longer news).
At the same time, the option of a launch from the Odesa Region should not be ruled out. Earlier this year, Ukrainian media reported on the modernization of Neptune missiles to a range of 500 km by reducing the warhead.
As a result, one of the missiles was shot down, but the second one still reached the target, flying over the Sea of Azov at low altitude. The target hit was a ferry transporting fuel tanks.
It is difficult to say why the "Neptune" could not be shot down, given that its characteristics have long been known, especially to Crimean units. It is quite possible that a combination of factors played a role, including surprise, a new route, and a small number of missiles fired.
🔻However, the invisible consequences of the attack are more important:
In addition to the loss of fuel tanks, the ferry service has been suspended, which will affect fuel supplies to the peninsula, as well as the operation of the port itself.
Of course, these are solvable problems and they are temporary in nature, but overall they fit into the West's plan to strike at Russia's energy infrastructure (the sharply rising fuel prices in southern Russia are a testament to this) and to cut off communication with Crimea.
It should not be forgotten that the AFU and their curators have not forgotten their main goal of destroying the Crimean Bridge. Moreover, the attack in the Kursk Region, the raids on the Tendra Spit - all this is closely related to the enemy's further plans in the Crimean direction.
❗️Given today's strike, in the coming days, there may well be drone launches to the peninsula in order to force the Russian Armed Forces to expend ammunition, and then, while there are supply problems, strike with something more serious, including the bridge.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 On the Possible Offensive of the AFU in the Zaporizhzhia Direction
Over the past few weeks, there have been ongoing rumors in the media about the plans of Ukrainian formations on other parts of the front, in addition to the Russian border area. One of them could be the Zaporizhzhia direction, where the Ukrainian command has long been forming a strike force and saturating the units deployed there with fire support assets, including drones.
▪️One of the most likely scenarios for AFU actions should be considered an offensive by the enemy in the vicinity of Kamianske. It is to the north of it, in the area of Prymorske-Stepnohirsk, that the accumulation of the future attacking grouping is observed, the target of which, according to our data, may be both Tokmak with a further attempt to cut the land route to Crimea, and Enerhodar with the subsequent capture of the ZNPP.
▪️Several signs, both direct and indirect, indicate the enemy's plans. Satellite reconnaissance is actively working in the interests of the AFU, photographing potential air defense positions and command posts of the Russian Armed Forces. At the same time, identical points of the enemy are also photographed in order to check camouflage.
▪️At the same time, Ukrainian formations have increased both the intensity of shelling and the use of drones, including against Enerhodar and nearby settlements. In addition to this, the enemy strikes at forest belts, dugouts and shelters, preparing the ground for further advancement.
▪️The Ukrainian authorities are also preparing the information background for the further capture of the ZNPP, which is manifested both in accusations of alleged arson on the territory of the facility and in statements by the president of the so-called Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy about the need to return the station.
❗️At the same time, the plans of the enemy, which have been discussed for some time, to land a landing on the Kinburn and Tendra spits, are by no means the invention of guard-patriots. Moreover, quite official persons have also started talking about them.
Ukrainian formations are seriously considering a combined operation to land troops by boats simultaneously with strikes by USVs and UAVs, as well as the landing of recon groups by helicopter.
🔻While AFU units continue to participate in the "Kursk adventure" and prepare for activation in the same Zaporizhzhia region, the operational crisis of the AFU is aggravating in the Pokrovske and Oleksandro-Kalinove directions. Nevertheless, despite the suicidal nature of the implemented plans, the Ukrainian command is ready to go all-in - they need both a media victory and a way to turn the tide of the conflict.

🇷🇺🪖🖇 Absolutely right: the fact that Telegram has now become almost the main means of managing units in the SMO zone (and on both sides of the front line) is a secret known only to some individuals in the Main Directorate of Communications (GUS).
The good news is that we have such developments, and they represent not just a military messenger, but a full-fledged decision support system (DSS) with many other functions. They are also handled not by amateurs, but by real proactive professionals in their field, about whom the Ministry of Defense is aware.
The bad news is that for two and a half years, the GUS has shown no real interest in the purposeful and centralized implementation of these systems in the troops. As for the same ESUTS, for which astronomical sums have been spent over the decades, there is nothing to say.
It would be very sad and at the same time amusing if the arrest of Pavel Durov becomes the catalyst for changes in approaches to communication and control means in the Russian Armed Forces. And not the accumulated military problems over the past two years, which the relevant department preferred to turn a blind eye to.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Battles in the Olhovka area and strikes on Ukrainian armor
What is known as of 6:00 PM on August 25, 2024
In Kursk Region, the Russian forces continue to contain the enemy's onslaught, inflicting significant losses on Ukrainian formations along the entire line of contact.
🔻In Korenevo District, the Russian Armed Forces have restored control over Olhovka, which had been the site of fierce battles several days ago. Apparently, after suffering heavy losses in equipment and manpower in the village and the surrounding area, the AFU were forced to withdraw.
Approaching Korenevo and Zeleny Shlyakh, two BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles were destroyed by FPV drones. The AFU continue their attempts to advance directly into Korenevo itself, but all their attacks are successfully repelled.
🔻In Sudzha District, fighting continues in the area of Malaya Loknya. All attempts by the enemy to enter and consolidate in the village have been thwarted, and it remains under the control of the Russian Armed Forces. In the area of Martynivka and Russkoye Porechnoye, there are ongoing clashes.
The sector is seeing an increase in the intensity of artillery strikes on Russian positions, which is associated with the redeployment of additional guns by Ukrainian formations from other parts of the front.
🔻The Russian forces continue systematic work to destroy air defense systems and radar stations in Sumy Region. UAV operators struck an ST-68 radar of the AFU near Shevchenkovo in Sumy Region using a Lancet kamikaze drone. In the morning, a Buk-M1 air defense system was hit in Gritsenkovo.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: AFU Advance in Korenevo District
What is known as of 11:00 on August 27, 2024
In Kursk Region, Ukrainian formations have launched a series of attacks in Korenevo District since yesterday and managed to expand their control zone in several areas.
🔻In Glushkovo District, enemy drone strikes continue - the power substation on the outskirts of Glushkovo and Russian military vehicles in the village of Rzhava were attacked by drones. At the same time, the AFU are still trying to disrupt supplies in the area.
🔻The situation remains most tense in Korenevo District. The enemy recently tried to advance along the Blyakhovets River, occupying Gordeevka and Vnezapnoye. Now, Byakhovo and Viktorovka have come under AFU control. The village of Uspenovka, which remained deep in the rear of the AFU and whose status was unclear, has now apparently been captured by the enemy.
▪️Between Vnezapnoye and Kulbaki, based on objective control footage, several AFU armored vehicles were destroyed some time ago, although there were no previous reports of fighting in this area.
▪️Now it appears that the enemy has taken control of another road to Snagost and can increase pressure on Korenevo, as well as advance westward deeper into Glushkovo District along the border.
The latter option raises concerns, as the remaining intact crossings are located north of Tetkinо in the Karyazh area. And now the AFU can advance from east to west south of the Seym River, trapping the Russian Armed Forces in a trap formed by the river and the border configuration.
▪️In addition, east of Korenevo, according to objective control data, a Ukrainian armored vehicle was destroyed. However, it is unclear whether the enemy maintains a presence in the forest belts or if the wreckage appeared in the early days of the AFU's offensive in this area.
🔻In Sudzha District, strikes continue on identified enemy armor groups - one of them was routed in the vicinity of the village of Cherkasskoye Porechnoye, which was confirmed by objective control footage.
