⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️Ukraine attacked with ATACMS a Russian Airfield. Why? Let's break it down⚡️

🗓 Recently, ATACMS attacked an airfield in #Berdyansk, #Zaporozhye region. Immediately, as if on command, an attack began in the media space of Russia, actively fuelled by CIPSO. They worked in an organised manner. Someone predicted almost the defeat of Russia.

▪️ Standard scheme: A high-profile terrorist attack of #Ukraine and a media attack. The US secretly transferred 20 ATACMS missiles to #Ukraine. If earlier they announced arms deliveries with pathos, now everything has been done quietly. For what?

▪️ The answer came from a #NATO country. The Turkish side assures that ATACMS is both a diversionary manoeuvre and an attempt to close the holes in #Ukraine's combat capability. #Ukraine has lost a huge number of aircraft carriers of Storm Shadow and SCALP [Su-24] cruise missiles, as well as the missiles themselves, which were destroyed by the Russian Army with pinpoint strikes on secret depots.

▪️ The Turks assure that the AFU may be left without tactical missiles at all. For this purpose, ATACMS were transferred in an accelerated secret mode. To give some kind of response to the Russian Army.

❗️This is the Turkish version. Looks true enough. But it needs to be verified.

▪️ The U.S. sacrificed the usual PR for the #Ukraine arms transfer. Which suggests hasty action, indirectly confirming the Turks' version.

🔹Does the ATACMS Attack have strategic Significance? Will it change the Situation on the Front?

▪️ The answer is unequivocally no. ATACMS will create problems, nothing more. But there will be no fundamental change. The attack on the airfield is a PR action, an attempt to thwart the Russian Army's attack. The counterattack has failed, the Russians are pressing on all fronts. #Ukraine is experiencing a military supply problem. The #US has covered up large scale funding and is torn on two fronts. That doesn't mean #Ukraine isn't dangerous and hang out the white flag. #Ukraine will be safe when our enemy is defeated and Nazism destroyed. Now the dying beast is snapping back as best it can, with the support of the West and Western intelligence, scouting out places to attack, terrorist attacks, sabotage, counting more on noise in the media space than on real victory.

📌 After the use of ATACMS, the Supreme Commander in Chief announced the patrolling of the Black Sea by Russian planes with Daggers on board. Saying: "this is not a threat!" It is indeed not a threat, it is the cocked bolt of a sniper rifle with a scope on the foreheads of the #NATO aides of #Ukraine. "Dagger" will fly in 5-10 minutes to those points on the territory of Ukraine, through which the weapon is delivered. If the air defence shoots down missiles that have already been fired, then the Dagger is ahead of the curve.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🔎 What Results the AFU Achieved in Five Months of Offensive⚡️

⚔️Active combat operations began on 4 June. At the moment, the AFU offensive has not stopped, but it is clear that it is losing momentum and is being maintained more to create visibility than to achieve real goals.

🔹What was the Offensive Plan?

▪️Initially, the AFU command planned to launch two dissecting strikes and reach two major cities, #Melitopol (and further to #Berdyansk) and #Mariupol on the coast of the Azov Sea.

▪️It was assumed that in the course of the offensive the territory with a total area of about 23,000 km2 would be captured, and in a number of directions, including the Crimean and Donetsk ones, the threat of encirclement of Russian troops would be created.

▪️In reality, a competently constructed line of defence and redesigned fire tactics prevented the AFU from succeeding.

▪️At the moment, the total area of territory in which the AFU has managed to advance is about 140 km2 in the #Zaporozhye direction and 116 km2 in the #SouthDonetsk direction, which is almost 90 times less than it was supposed to occupy during the offensive.

🔹What other Problems does the AFU have?

▪️In addition to problems with the failure to fulfil the offensive's main objectives, there are others. On 4 September, former Ukrainian Defence Minister Oleksiy Reznikov said that each day of combat operations costs Ukraine $100 million.

▪️Thus, 153 days (five months) of the offensive cost Kiev $15.3bn, but this money did not bring results. It is noteworthy that almost immediately the previously created myth about the superiority of the AFU, NATO tactics and technical superiority collapsed. Most of the expectations from the nature of the AFU actions simply did not realise.

▪️If the offensive had been successful, a number of #EU countries and the US would most likely have continued or increased the supply of military equipment. Now that almost all available conventional weapons options,- from small drones to man-portable air defence systems, have been tried, many have lost enthusiasm to continue deliveries.

▪️In addition, favourable timing has been lost. In the winter of 2022 and spring of 2023, much expectation was placed on warm season warfare. It was thought that summer and warm weather would favour the AFU offensive, but this did not happen.

🔹What losses did the AFU suffer?

▪️On 30 October, Russian Defence Minister Sergey Shoygu said that the AFU had lost more than 90,000 people killed and wounded during the offensive. These are 36 brigades of 2.5 thousand men each. No other army in the world has suffered such losses since World War II. The fleet of foreign equipment supplied to the AFU has been largely confused. The experience of using American M2 Bradley BMPs, M113/YPR-765 and M1126 Stryker APCs, Leopard 2A4/A5 (Strv 122)/A6 and Challenger 2 tanks, PzH-2000, M109 and AS-90 UASs has shown that Western combat vehicles cannot fundamentally change the situation on the battlefield, while their destruction and damage have an immediate and negative impact on the situation at the front.

🔹What's the Result?

▪️In addition, the failure of the AFU offensive has caused a split in the once united camp of #Ukraine's supporters. In the US, congressmen are asking questions about the prospects for aid to Kiev, while in #Europe some countries have already suspended or stopped military supplies to #Ukraine, among them #Slovakia and the main military donor in #Europe, #Poland.

▪️Also, five months of intense fighting have depleted the stockpiles of arms and ammunition not only in #Ukraine, but also in the #EU, from where they were forcibly transferred in the spring of 2023. The EU will be able to replenish reserves to the level of 2022 not earlier than 2025. In the short term, therefore, one cannot count on increased supplies, and without them, the prospects for any offensive actions in 2024 look very illusory.

📋🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Two Majors #Report for the Morning of 27 November 2023; pub. 07:00📍

❄️ The weather has made its own adjustments to the course of hostilities and logistics on both sides of the front.

A day off has been declared on the peninsula and in the #Kherson region, civilians are asked to stay at home. In the #Zaporozhye region, the center of #Berdyansk was flooded.
