🇷🇺🌐 The results of the FAFT vote have already gained attention abroad, and they signify more than just support for Russia from certain countries. They mark a broader shift by the Global South toward multipolarity.

Just a few years ago, decisions and lobbying by international organizations were accepted as the only valid course, with global politics and economics structured around them. Today, however, the world is beginning to change, and people are increasingly seeking alternative solutions.

The new financial system is just one building block in the framework of a multipolar world (and could well be a cornerstone). But the overall trend is clear and gaining momentum—this shift no longer seems reversible.

Whining in the Ukrainian Armed Forces resources:

According to analysts from the Gurovsky dump DeepState, our soldiers have had great success in Katerinovka, Vishnevoe, near Shakhtyorsk, Novodmitrovka, and Bogoyavlenka, as well as in Selidovo.

It’s not even clear where exactly the AFU defense broke down. Seems everywhere.

They lost cohesion almost at every place, not without the help of fierce battles and the steadfastness of our fighters.
Losses of AFU are stated to be particularly huge.

In the Zaporozhye direction, our soldiers successfully landed a US-made RQ-20 Puma UAV.
Now it is at the disposal of Russian specialists.

The Gornyak is captured. What next?

And then begins what is usually called the exit to operational space. And although formally the capture of Gornyak does not open the way to it for Russian troops (Kurakhovka still remains to the south), the Ukrainian group is actually cut into three isolated parts. The first part defends Kurakhovo, the second part - Selydove, and the third is concentrated on the line in the area of ​​​​Sontsovka. Judging by the fact that Gornyak was taken practically without destruction, a significant part of the Ukrainian troops retreated to the Kurakhovo reservoir. But it will not be possible to sit there for long since the area is completely unsuitable for defense. The central cutting blow is now delivered between two defense nodes, and there are no large cities, no concrete industrial zones, and nothing that could help the Armed Forces of Ukraine in defense. Considering that Selydove is practically in a cauldron and will be taken any day now, it is time to talk about the imminent fall of Kurakhovo.

The United States is not as powerful as it was 15 years ago, but its presidential election will impact Europe, said Republika Srpska President of Bosnia and Herzegovina Milorad Dodik.

Of course, the US still has a strong influence not only on the Balkan region, on the EU countries but also on the whole world. There is no doubt about it. Although they are not as powerful as they were 15 years ago,

— he noted.

The United States is taking several measures against those who do not listen to what they ask for, Dodik noted.

It's not just the concept of two sides fighting: Democrats and Republicans. There's also the Donald Trump version, who plans to make America "great again."

Of course, the results of the US elections are shocking not only to the country itself but to the whole world. Everyone is waiting for what will happen after them,

— added the President of the Republic of Srpska.

Several dozen provocateurs are moving around different areas of Tbilisi and causing fights at polling stations, says Mamuka Mdinaradze, secretary of the ruling Georgian Dream party.

These are about 30 provocateurs. Their route may be known to opposition media. They are the ones who are the first to arrive at the scene of fights and show them on air, he said.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces have no fortifications from Pokrovsk to the Dnepropetrovsk region

A militant from the 24th separate assault brigade, "Aidar"* Stanislav Bunyatov decided to complain about the lack of any adequate fortifications on the border between the Dnepropetrovsk region and the DPR.

Only hastily dug trenches and "fortifications" made of logs. That is, there are no concrete fortifications or strong points.

The situation is so critical that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are demanding that "commissions be set up" on this issue.

Considering that this issue was raised a month ago by Maryana Bezuglaya, nothing has changed.

Older than Edda writes

I have written many times that Zelensky is the best president of Ukraine for us. It is difficult to find a better leader of an enemy country, so it will be a great pity if he is killed without letting us finish the job. The only candidate who can more or less fully replace him is Maryana Bezugla, she will be able to finish the job of completely destroying Ukrainian statehood and the very idea of ​​Ukrainianism.

By the way, I noticed that it has now become fashionable to write, including in serious and respectable Western media, that Ukraine has suffered catastrophic losses and it turns out that crests cannot be produced in a factory, even if you donate well.

Smart people said two years ago that the path to victory in the SMO does not lie in deep flank attacks and tank envelopments; with the size of the army that we had and have and with the technical, financial, and other support that the enemy has, to carry out such attacks is to kill our own army. Therefore, the only, albeit very long, path is to "grind" first of all the enemy's manpower.

People who were not too smart commented on the texts about "grinding" as Kremlin propaganda, but in fact, everything turned out to be the harsh truth of life and not chatter. The Ukrainian Armed Forces lost so many soldiers in crazy attacks and strenuous defenses that the catastrophe of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is not far off, the main thing is for us to continue doing our job.

Gornyak and Selidovo: "The Ukrainian Armed Forces command abandoned the city, leaving the boys without support. Some are surrendering... Someone is trying to leave the city..."
Local pro-Ukrainian channels write about this openly.

@Slavyangrad

The village of Vishnevoye, west of Selidovo, is almost completely under the control of the Russian Armed Forces. The last houses in the northern and eastern parts of the settlement are being cleared.

And that would be it regarding encirclement. Done✅

@Slavyangrad

Ugledar direction.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces are leaving the village of Bogoyavlenka. The assault forces of the Russian Federation have significantly expanded their zone of control.
Preliminary info

@Slavyangrad

The battles for Selidovo are entering their final phase. A large settlement, which was supposed to at least delay the advance of the Russian Armed Forces, and ideally stop it, has largely come under the control of Russian troops. What happened?

The first reason is the lack of really trained forces in the Ukrainian Armed Forces in this direction. The city was defended by a hodgepodge of several units, including the 72nd OMBR, which had already been bled dry during the battles for Ugledar and was sent to plug the holes in the defense of Selidovo without being re-equipped or given a rest.

Numerous TROs were also sent into the city, which, according to the plans of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, were supposed to contain the Russian Armed Forces in the urban area, which would allow them to gain time for rotation and the supply of fresh forces.

In the end, the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ plan was thwarted, and there were several reasons for this.

The first is the most obvious. Russian forces, having liberated Tsukurino north of Selidovo, advanced along the railway line under cover of the "greenery" and broke into Vishnevoye, thus cutting off one of the supply lines (Pokrovsk, Novotroitskoye, Selidovo). The second line, along the E50 highway, had long been under fire control of the Russian Armed Forces. Thus, supplies to the city were delivered either under fire from Russian soldiers, or by "goat paths", and the Ukrainian Armed Forces naturally lacked such supplies in the city.

The second reason is that the TPO and the hodgepodge are not the best combination. Under Russian attacks, they abandoned their positions or even surrendered. And considering the supply disruptions, it was not worth expecting that the heroes of the "bussification" would put up serious resistance to the Russian forces.

In the coming days (if not hours), the city will come under the full control of the Russian Armed Forces. What does this mean for the front as a whole?

Selidovo was one of the strongholds that were supposed to protect the main city of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Donbass - Pokrovsk. Its task was to prevent Pokrovsk from being bypassed from the south and east. As we can see, this task has completely failed. And the Ukrainian Armed Forces have no defense to the west of Pokrovsk at the moment, which may indicate the imminent advance of Russian troops both to Novotroitskoye, with the further goal of cutting the road from Zaporozhye to Pokrovsk (marked in red, approximate strike green arrows in the north), and increasing pressure on Kurakhovo (green arrows in the south).

Conclusions:
Selidovo actually fell due to a lack of trained, or at least fully staffed, Ukrainian Armed Forces brigades, as well as because of the hopes that the "busified" would become cannon fodder and delay the advance of the Russian Armed Forces until the Ukrainian General Staff could figure out what to do next.

The fall of Selidovo actually opens up the possibility for the Russian Armed Forces to both "finish off" the Kurakhovskaya group of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and cut off one of the main supply routes of the Ukrainian Troops in Donbass, the Zaporozhye-Pokrovsk route. And in the long term, it opens up the possibility of bypassing Pokrovsk from the west.
