Mr. Putin spoke out on the special military operation.

🇮🇷 The IRGC hinted at the threat of attacks on ships heading to Israel in the Mediterranean Sea.

“If crimes continue, the United States and its allies should expect the emergence of new resistance forces and the closure of remaining roads and routes. Yesterday, the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz became a nightmare for them, and today the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and the Red Sea trapped them." (c) Commander-in-Chief of the IRGC Naval Forces, Brigadier General Naghdi

Ayatollah Khamenei today once again stated that the Zionist regime in Israel will be destroyed.

“Rest assured, the Zionist regime will disappear. The Gaza war is an extraordinary phenomenon, both because of the brutality of the Zionist regime and the resilience and resistance of the Palestinians.”

It is important to note that according to Soleimani's strategy, Iran is not going to fight itself. He is going to fight against the United States and Israel with the help of his many proxies - Hezbollah, Hamas, Ansar Allah, Hashd-Shaabi, Kataib Hezbollah, etc. etc.. which he will provide with specialists, money and modern weapons. The task of Iranian proxies is to bite Iran’s enemies and distract their attention, dragging them into the funnel of an endless and hopeless war, which increases hatred of the United States and Israel in the region and at the same time increases the authority and influence of Iran playing its chess game. The architect of this strategy, Qassem Soleimani, died almost 4 years ago - but his work lives on and wins, which once again demonstrates the extraordinary strategic genius of this outstanding man.

🇺🇲🇾🇪 The US is concerned that Houthi-led Yemen will attack or even sink American ships, according to US officials who spoke to The New York Times. They fear that the war that could break out again between the Gulf states and the Houthis if the US reacts to it will have more serious consequences. For this reason, they abandoned attempts to directly attack the Houthis.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abdullahian also said the US has requested assistance in combating the Houthi attacks. Iran said it could not help because the United States was a party to the war. After the collapse of the anti-Houthi coalition, it turned out that the United States feared that the Houthis would sink their ships, and then they had to ask Iran for help.

The Houthis managed to inflict one of the biggest strategic and tactical defeats on the US this century without even hitting them directly with a handful of missiles and drones.

🇺🇸The US Armed Forces have decreased by 64 thousand people over the past three years, and in 2024 the total number will be less than in the forties - it was less only in 1940. The reason is that fewer and fewer people are joining the army.

Frontline report for the morning 12/24/2023⚡️

In the #Zaporozhye direction, the Russian Armed Forces attacked west of the village of #Rabotino. The Ukrainian Armed Forces, in turn, tried to advance at #Verbovoy. LBS has not changed.

On the Donetsk front, Russian troops storm #Novomikhailovka from the south and southeast. To the west of #Marinka, the Russian Armed Forces have managed to advance and will definitely try to break through to #Georgievka, a key settlement on the way to #Kurakhov, the most important logistics center of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. From Vodyanoy, Russian troops reached a section of the M-04 highway southeast of #Pervomaisky. To the southeast of #Avdeevka they occupied the territory of the #Vinogradniki gardening partnership. This is to the west of the previously taken industrial zone. Russian troops continued their attack on the coke plant, #Stepnoe (not to be confused with the settlements of the same name in the #Zaporozhye and #Ugledar directions), #Ocheretino and #Novokalinovo. Here the Ukrainian Armed Forces hold their positions.

In the #Bakhmut direction, the Russian Armed Forces continued their offensive near #Kleshcheevka. They carry out assault operations to the northeast of the village and from the northwest along the heights. As a result of the counterattack, the Ukrainian Armed Forces managed to regain a number of previously lost positions from #Khromov. Also at heights. In the #Bogdanovka area, the Russian Armed Forces are trying to break through the Ukrainian defenses and reach #ChasovYar. The Ukrainian Armed Forces counterattacked southwest of #Verkhnekamenka and managed to advance. In recent days, the Russian Armed Forces have held the initiative here.

In the Lugansk direction, Russian troops managed to seriously push back the Ukrainian Armed Forces near #Ternov. This is a key settlement through which the Ukrainian group on the left bank of the Zherebets River is supplied. The distance from the forward positions of the Russian Armed Forces to the village is less than 4 kilometers. Also, Russian troops managed to advance a little at #Sinkovka. #UkraineRussianWar t.me/wartimesreports

In general, the front is characterized by the seizure of the strategic initiative by the Russian Armed Forces, which came at a great price. The enemy is still very strong and the concentration of the efforts of the Russian Armed Forces on certain sectors of the front, as on #Avdeevka , does not lead to deep breakthroughs, although it puts the Armed Forces of Ukraine at a disadvantage with heavy losses. The enemy intends to defend at any cost, regardless of losses . There is only one reason: the plans of the political leadership of Ukraine to enter negotiations with a “stronger position.” #UkraineRussianWar t.me/wartimesreports

morning of December 24, 2023

The enemy, against the backdrop of a worsening situation for the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the front, openly disseminates in its media theses about the inevitable mass mobilization and the need for readiness for defense. Kiev speakers, in whose roles select Nazis are invited to appear on TV, are beginning to push narratives about “the inevitability of negotiations at the end of any war ” and, at most, “Ukraine’s strong position” in these negotiations. Moscow is not yet satisfied with the proposed conditions, although the military-political leadership of Russia is behind the scenes studying Kiev’s mediocre attempts in this direction.

Meanwhile, at the front of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the command was given not to retreat , to hold the LBS at any cost , even the bloodiest. The enemy is trying to prepare a line of defense for 2024, and is doing it chaotically, not understanding what the main strategic plan of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be. While enemy fortified areas are being built around cities in eastern Ukraine, effectively dooming their population to “ fighting in urban areas ,” for which NATO has been preparing enemy troops for years.

The Russian Armed Forces are learning to fight, the main enemy is our own sloppiness and underestimation of the enemy. The interaction between divisions, units and branches of the military, about which the channels of our front-line soldiers write so much, remains at the “no damn” level. A striking and tragic example of this this past week was the death of several aircraft in the Kherson direction. The aviators did not receive data from the reconnaissance of ground units on a systematic basis; they flew to transport the FAB from the UMPC along almost the same route for weeks. Experts argue about the details and means of destruction (Patriot or S-300) of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Near Krynki, the extermination of boat landing groups of the Ukrainian Armed Forces continues every night. Our guys also get it: the enemy knows how to fight, we suffer losses.

However, there are many positive examples. From the Avdeevsky direction they reported effective interaction between aviation and tank units of the Russian Army, as a result of which success was achieved on the northern ledge of this section of the front near Stepovoy. At the same time, enemy FPV drones and UAV bombers remain a serious problem for our troops throughout the LBS.

The #Artemovsk ( Bakhmut ) direction is characterized by heavy fighting at #Bogdanovka , #Ivanovsky ( Krasny ) and #Kleshcheyevka leshcheevka . Our troops break through the enemy’s defenses, but the completely ignorant soldiers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, intimidated by the command, are forced to hold the line and die as entire units. Experts estimate the daily losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine only in the “two hundredths”, from 800 to 1 thousand people along the entire length of the front.

The #Zaporozhye Front reports the enemy's senseless attempts to portray activity in the Rabotino-Verbovoe pocket. Experienced officers write to us about daily attacks by small groups of enemy infantry, constant shelling and many drones. However, our paratroopers, replenished with a special contingent (its training leaves much to be desired), are leading an offensive at #Verbovoy .

The enemy assesses the #Maryinsk direction as “critical” : our troops are pressing #Novomikhailovka from three sides, and desertions are increasing among the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Paratroopers trained in England also go to the rear “for quarters.” The Ukrainian “mobs” abandoned in positions are fighting desperately: the information vacuum and enemy propaganda are doing their job.
