⚔️🇺🇸🐮💩 Analysis of the Situation in Ukraine by the US Troll Entity "Institute for the Study of War" (ISW):

⚠️ What annoys me most is that the trolls have predicted the Russian withdrawal from the Dnipro bridgehead, which I did not think possible for political reasons (I will comment on this separately). Otherwise ISW forecasts are rather pathetic and inspired by wishful thinking, such as Kupyansk being conquered within 3 days. It took weeks for the Russians to withdraw.

November 9 Key Takeaways🔻

▪️ The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) ordered Russian forces on the west (right) bank of the Dnipro River to begin withdrawing to the east (left) bank on November 9.

▪️ The battle of Kherson is not inherently over, but Russian forces have entered a new phase— prioritizing withdrawing their forces across the river in good order and delaying Ukrainian forces, rather than seeking to halt the Ukrainian counteroffensive entirely.

▪️ Many prominent voices in the Russian milblogger space sided with Surovikin and lauded the decision as a necessary one, indicating that Russian leadership has learned from the information effects of the disastrous Russian withdrawal from Kharkiv Oblast in mid-September.

▪️ Russian National Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev met with senior Iranian officials in Tehran on November 9, likely to discuss the sale of Iranian ballistic missiles to Russia and other forms of cooperation.

▪️ Russian and Ukrainian sources reported continued fighting along the Svatove-Kremmina highway and Bilohorivka, Luhansk Oblast.

▪️ Ukrainian forces made territorial gains northeast of Kherson City and continued their successful interdiction campaign.

▪️ Russian forces continued offensive operations around Bakhmut, Avdiivka, and in western Donetsk Oblast.

▪️ Russian federal subjects are struggling to pay mobilized personnel, and the Russian military is struggling to provision them.

▪️ Relatives of mobilized personnel continue to protest lack of payment and poor conditions.

▪️ Russian occupation deputy head of Kherson Oblast Kirill Stremousov was killed in a claimed car accident in rear Kherson Oblast the day Russian forces announced their withdrawal from the west bank of Kherson Oblast.

▪️ Occupation authorities in rear areas are likely increasing law enforcement crackdowns and filtration measures amid fears of Ukrainian counteroffensives after the November 9 withdrawal announcement.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Situation in the #Soledar Direction until 14:00 on 10 Nov 2022⚡️

#Bakhmut Area:

▪️ The Wagner PMC assault troops continue to storm Ukrainian positions in the southeastern part of #Bakhmut and in the #Kurdyumovka area. The "Wagnerians" have advanced towards #Andreevka and #Kleshcheevka.

▪️ #Bakhmutskoye has been completely cleared out, and Russian troops are close to #Soledar. Heavy fighting is also taking place for the village of #Belogorovka, where half of the settlement is currently under the control of the musicians.

▪️ To deter the Russian offensive, AFU artillery crews are shelling the areas of #Ivangrad, #Zaitsevo and #Mayorsk. Reinforcements were moved to the contact line to reinforce the 53rd and 54th Mechanized Brigades of the AFU.

▪️ Due to significant losses in personnel and equipment, the command of the Operation Task Group Soledar plans to withdraw the 93rd Mechanized Brigade from the #Podgorodnoye - #Soledar - #Yakovlevka line for restoration, starting on 16 November

▪️ In addition, preparations are underway for a partial withdrawal of personnel of the 30th AFU Mechanized Brigade from the vicinity of #Bakhmut. The positional defence areas of the two Ukrainian formations will be handed over to separate units of the 24th Mechanized Brigade.

#Lysychansk Sector:

▪️ Fighting for (another) #Belogorovka continues. To reinforce the positions, 80th Separate Air Assault Brigade and armoured vehicles of the 81st Airmobile Brigade of the AFU have been moved to the #Serebryanka- #Belogorovka line

In Ukraine, they do not believe that Russian troops are leaving Kherson.

The “do not believe” marathon continues on the Ukrainian side:
“Some people think that they are very cunning… But we are one step ahead,” writes Andriy Yermak, head of the Office of the President of Ukraine. "It's a staged show." The Ukrainian command commented on Russia's withdrawal from Kherson.
The statements of the Russian command about the withdrawal from Kherson can be a “staged show”, and it’s too early to talk about the capture of Kherson, said Natalya Gumenyuk, spokesman for the Operational Command “South”.
Gumenyuk called the announcement of the withdrawal of troops from Kherson an attempt by the Russian leadership to "save face" and noted that this was not the first time this had happened. “What is now being announced [about the withdrawal of Russian troops from Kherson] is an attempt to create a certain impression that the lives of soldiers will be saved, that the civilian population will be saved – and another demonization of the armed forces of Ukraine,” Gumenyuk said.
According to her, a real military operation requires a regime of information silence, and “a staged show with the announcement of such serious and difficult decisions is a long-understood method of justifying oneself.”
At the same time, as Gumenyuk notes, the defense lines near Kherson have been created, and regular Russian troops are on the ground and are ready to defend.
The statement of the Russian command, according to Gumenyuk, may be "an element of an information-psychological operation in order to create an erroneous impression of true intentions." https://t.me/ukraina_ru/114906

Withdrawing from Kherson:

Pros -
1. You’re not dealing with supply issues of relying on pontoons and bridges that are being targeted every other day
2. The manpower needed to defend the Dnieper river will be much less than to defend Kherson
3. You free up assets for an attack in the Donbas
4. You secure a flank with the Dnieper river as your barrier
5. Narrowing the frontline, which favors the side with less manpower and more artillery (Added)
6. Prevents the destruction of Kherson city if the Ukrainians were to succeed in an offensive (Added)
7. Prolongs the stalemate situation until the Russian mobilized arrive (Added)

Cons -
1. Major political defeat, losing a capitol city of one of the new territories
2. Ukrainians now free up forces to be used in the Donbas
3. Ukraine secures their flank
4. You lose a strategic bridgehead across the Dneiper that won’t be easy to get back
5. Potential of increased support from the West in aid and equipment (Added)
6. Ranged systems like HIMARS can now potentially strike targets in Crimea (Added)
7. Potential threat of internal unrest (Added)
8. International perspective of Russia may be altered (Added)
9. Ukrainian war crimes, war crimes propaganda by the Ukrainians, on remaining civilians that refused to evacuate (Added)
10. Morale boost to Ukrainians, decreased morale on the Russian side (Added)

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦👁 Opinion: On the announced Russian #Dnipro Bridgehead Retreat⚡️

〽️ This is the third heavy defeat of the Russian Federation after #Kiev and #Kharkov (#Belakleya).

▪️ While #Kiev only damaged the reputation, after #Kharkov citizens with new Russian passports (the region was in the process of integration to Russian Federation) lost their belongings and surprised ones left behind were exposed to the purges of Ukrainian death squads. For #Kherson, on the other hand, evacuations were carried out in time in accordance with international law, as lessons were apparently learned from the #Kharkov mistakes. But with the Kherson withdrawal, #Russia is losing territory to #Ukraine.

▪️ I will not deny that the withdrawal is in line with military needs and Kadyrov and others were also involved in announcing the decision. From (most?) Russian reporters close to the state, it is signalled approval, as expected.

On the other hand, the difficult supply situation in the bridgehead region has not existed for only about two weeks. It was clear to anyone with a modicum of military understanding that the damage to the Crimean Bridge and the constant attacks on Antonovsky Bridge at #Kerson and other bridges in the region would not remain without consequences.

▪️ For many weeks, experts, @Rybar, Russian bloggers, Telegram Channels, circles in state television and journalists etc. have been calling for a tougher approach to the conflict (so have I).

▪️ Destruction of dams and attacks on power plants (even Nuclear) was started on the part of #Ukraine attacks. Has #Ukraine ever been seriously criticised for this by its Western patrons and their media? The same applies to #Ukraine's permanent warfare in violation of international law. Does #Russia believe that it will somehow be rewarded for noble warfare by the West?

▪️ The current situation. There are midterm elections in the USA, winter is coming, the situation in the unfriendly and hostile states is worsening and recently one has increasingly heard the word negotiations. And yesterday the Russian Foreign Ministry announced its willingness to negotiate, taking into account the current situation?

▪️ A PR performance could not be worse. A war is not only won on the battlefield. In the media age, public opinion is more important than ever, because #Ukraine is 100% on the drip of Western taxpayers. And now weakness is signalled so that the enemy's propaganda gets a boost again?

▪️ Back to noble warfare. The blows to #Ukraine's energy system have been half-hearted at best. We must be clear about this, #Ukraine still has power and is repairing everything rapidly.

▪️ One usually measures the success of an operation by the objectives set. But after almost 11 months, all the objectives of the "Special Military Operation" are more distant than ever. On the other hand, much further suffering has (inevitably) been caused worldwide.

▪️ The Russian leadership must realise that the conflict must end. Either you lose out in negotiations or you force the other side to accept your terms in negotiations.

💡 The Ukrainian energy system lends itself to forcing the other side to give in. The other side does not need a de-energised #Ukraine, if only because of the wave of refugees it fears.

🩸 After the loss of the Battle of #Kherson, #Russia must now act with all its might, just as the other side is doing, although the energy war was ultimately started by #Ukraine and is therefore excusable.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦💥 #Donbass - Ukrainian BMP hit near #Ugledar⚡️

A Russian UAV detected a Ukrainian BMP-1 armoured personnel carrier moving into position: the enemy was planning to open fire on the western outskirts of #Vladimirovka.

The BMP that had reached the opening fire point was hit by a high-precision ammunition from an artillery crew of the Russian Armed Forces.

Most likely, a Krasnopol corrective projectile was used to incapacitate the enemy's equipment.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🔥 #Donbass - Russian Grad MLRS firing on AFU positions in #Georgievka⚡️

The footage from the Tankers of the Southern Military District by @tankist4 depicts Russian Grad multiple-launch rocket system operating on the village of #Georgievka, located near the strategically important village of #Maryinka.

Judging by the area where the private sector was hit, the strike targeted a concentration of the enemy's personnel and equipment in #Georgievka.

There is intense fighting in #Maryinka itself. Assault units of the Russian Armed Forces and DPR People's Militia are advancing towards Druzhba Avenue. The western part of the settlement is still under the control of the AFU.
