Russian units retreat from just north of Adviivka after taking heavy losses over the past few days of fighting. This move by Ukraine is the first time the area came into Ukrainian hands since 2014. Russian forces have finally begun to stop the offensive at Avdiivka to allow their forces to try and regroup and mount a defensive.

Meanwhile In Gaza a senior Hamas leader was confirmed dead after an Israeli airstrike, and Israeli forces are now conducting a two-pronged assault into Gaza.

--- "...bombarded with propaganda that portrays this war as a close call...."
"Western officials’ promises of reinvigorating their own defense industries have collided with bureaucratic and supply-chain bottlenecks. Meanwhile, sanctions and export controls have impeded Putin’s war effort far less than expected. Russian defense factories are ramping up their output, and Soviet legacy factories are outperforming Western factories when it comes to much-needed items like artillery shells.

"The technocrats responsible for running the Russian economy have proven themselves to be resilient, adaptable, and resourceful. Elevated oil prices, driven in part by close cooperation with Saudi Arabia, are refilling state coffers. Ukraine, by contrast, depends heavily on infusions of Western cash."

The Davydov 'adoration' for today features, in comment # 1, an "Offensive through the eyes of a soldier November 17, 2023 https://militaryland.net/news/invasion-day-630-summary/ Offensive through the eyes of a soldier Company commander of 47th Mechanized Brigade speaks about the unit and combat in the south.

Mykola Melnyk is an officer of Ukrainian Armed Forces, owner of Bohdan Khmelnytsky Order. In 2022, he joined 47th Mechanized Brigade (back then a battalion) and became company commander.

Found today on Forbes is the same fellow:

"Ukrainian military leaders underestimated the Russians’ determination to hold territory they'd captured, Melynk said in a wide-ranging interview with Censor. The same leaders changed units’ organization and equipment at the last minute, wrecking their cohesion, Melynk claimed. Ukrainian aviation didn't show up to support the ground troops, he added."

After Losing a Leg, One Ukrainian Officer Still Loves His M-2 Vehicle.

It seems to depend on who fashions the narrative. The Forbes narrative ends with:
" 'The whole plan of the big counteroffensive was based on simple things: a Muscovite sees a Bradley, a Leopard—and runs away,' Melynk said. That of course didn't happen. It took the 47th Brigade and other counteroffensive units five months, and many casualties—including Melynk—to advance 10 or a dozen miles along several axes.

Russia Has a Blackmail Problem [EXCERPT]

Phone scammers have targeted Russian politicians, after an admission by a Kremlin propagandist that she was a victim of “extortion” and pays to ensure she is not subject to negative media coverage.
Dmitry Gusev, a deputy in Russia’s parliament, the Duma, has said that he was among politicians who had received messages purporting to be from those chairing the committees they sit on.

On Thursday, Gusev posted on his Telegram channel screenshots of messages that had allegedly been written by Oleg Morozov, who is the chairman of the Duma’s control committee. Morozov is sanctioned by the EU and has said on Russian state television that Russia could attack Poland and the U.K.

“They start communicating and ask, ‘do you know such and such a person?’” Gusev wrote, “then they offer to solve some issue, provide assistance, and so on. Colleagues, don’t be fooled,” added Gusev. He is a member of A Just Russia - For Truth, a party in the country’s systemic opposition considered sympathetic to the Kremlin.

Gusev told the Telegram channel Mash that, when he received the message, which he thought Morozov had sent, he had agreed to his request to meet in person.

“Naturally, no one showed up at the scene, and the scammers went ignored,” Mash reported, without specifying who wrote the messages and adding the case had been referred to Russia’s prosecutor’s office.

In turn, Morozov appealed to lawmakers not to respond to “strange requests and appeals” purportedly sent by him.
received a message on my behalf with an offer to call back, send funds, or other requests, do not respond, as this is a fake,” Piskarev wrote

I went to Forbes and read the article. The poor guy stepped on a mine his first day in combat.

Does Davydov mention that?

Nov 18, 2023
Combat footage released by a Ukrainian brigade purports to show Kyiv’s forces repelling what has been described as a “meat storm” launched by Russia in eastern Ukraine.

The aerial footage, filmed by a drone, is coupled with dramatic music and appears to show Ukrainian forces firing at multiple Russian tanks and armored vehicles, leaving behind trails of smoke. One portion of the clip shows the charred remains of a car and a soldier covered in flames, crawling away from the scene.

--- "I went to their X page and it gives a location of Birmingham, Alabama."

One was not -- so the script went -- look behind the curtain to see the "great wizard" was just the pretend wizard.

As the line went, "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain."

It is imperative to the "narrative" that you conclude Birmingham, Alabama, is very, very near the Ukrainian front lines, and that the brawny ENFORCER is a significant journalist.

Else the details might be better seen, when the curtain is drawn away bu someone, to learn with documented URLS:

One might conclude so much of this is about the Benjamins....

"Create products. Engage fans. Make money." From Alabama, so that a Floridian can post "Ukrainian" stuff right here from these United States. Be sure to buy a hat or mug....

The either-or fallacy occurs when someone incorrectly presents a limited number of options as though there were no alternatives. In such cases, they have (intentionally or unintentionally) overlooked other possibilities.

This distortion usually works by presenting only two extreme choices (when there are actually more) or by suggesting that these choices are mutually exclusive (when they are not).

This is a manipulative method that forces others to accept the speaker’s viewpoint as legitimate, feasible, or ethical.
The either-or fallacy is also known as the false dilemma fallacy, false dichotomy, or false binary.

One important thing Denmark will be doing is to check whether these ships have adequate insurance. Russia has recently bought a lot of tanker ships from other countries, some probably quite old. In addition to insurance new sanctions are being developed to stop other countries from selling their ships to Russia.
