Last week, according to Russian state media: "Russia is taking Avdiivka!"

As Russia has been taking Avdiivka for the last two months. Having World War I level casualty rates. Taking only a couple blocks that were no man's land. In a city that is essentially a suburb of Donetsk, that Russia has surrounded on three sides been unable to take for two years.

Meanwhile, back in the real world, Ukraine is inflicting heavy casualties on Russian forces and outflanking their advance, putting their advance at risk.

Next week, according to the same Russian state media: "Russia is taking Avdiivka!"

I am Ukrainian. My country has been invaded by Russia. In this video I will tell you what happened on the six-hundred-forty-ninth day of the war.

Day 649: Dec 04

Today, there are a lot of updates from the Donetsk region.

Here, more information became available about the recent Ukrainian counterattack that happened north of the chemical plant. Yesterday, I told you that according to the Ukrainian Avdiivka Military Head Vitaly Barabash, the Ukrainian counterattack was successful. Today, Ukrainian fighters from the 47th Mechanized Brigade released the combat footage showing what actually happened.

The operation consisted of three stages: the assault on the strongpoint on the first intersection, in the middle of the tree line, and on the second intersection. The first thing Ukrainians did was launch artillery preparation. As you can see, the area consists of a series of small trenches. This is because there are two lines of concrete walls that Ukrainians were leveraging when firing at Russian forces in the tree line in front of them. So, the concrete walls were used as cover against enemy bullets, while the trenches were only used if Russians started engaging their artillery.

The problem for Russians is that Ukrainian trenches were located closer to the eastern wall, which is not very convenient when facing an attack from the west. Ukrainians tried to use this against Russians and forced them to hide from artillery and mortar fire further from the western wall while simultaneously undermining the Russian defense by eliminating the personnel.

In the meantime, Ukrainian fighters from the 67th Mechanized Brigade conducted an assault with Bradleys on the first strongpoint on the line. The infantry fighting vehicle successfully reached the enemy position, suppressed the enemy fire, and allowed for a successful landing of the infantry. Ukrainian fighters gradually dispersed and started closing the circle around Russian forces. So, the vehicle advanced from the west and assumed a firing position right in the middle of the tree lines, while Ukrainian soldiers entered both tree lines from the sides and finished Russian troops that tried to hide from machine gun fire.

The next target immediately became the strongpoint in the central part of the tree line. The assault was once again conducted with the help of Bradley infantry fighting vehicle. In order to avoid direct fire from a machine gun, some Russian soldiers stepped out of the tree line and tried to hide in a small ditch between the trees and the field.

Unfortunately for Russians, as there were no more tree branches above them, they automatically became exposed to Ukrainian assault drones. The video shows how Ukrainian kamikaze drones eliminated half of the group one by one. The drone strikes also kept Russians in the line of attack, simplifying the clearing operation. Eventually, the resistance was broken, and Ukrainians reestablished control over the tree line.

The last target became the area surrounded by concrete walls. Ukrainian Special Forces released a video showing how they hunted down Russian forces prior to the attack. Ukrainians prioritized clearing the western wall first because by pushing Russians away from it, the Ukrainian assault units could approach the position much more easily. The drone operators flew close to the enemy positions and revealed in graphic footage that there were no more Russians left.

Overall, despite the increased intensity of attacks and reduced stability in the region, Russian forces failed to secure their gains and lost the newly captured ground to a Ukrainian counterattack. Ukrainian fighters reported that the situation is expected to remain unstable as this is already the third or fourth time Russians had temporarily broken into the region.

Ukrainian Tavriisk Group of Forces Commander Tarnavskyi noted that Russian activity near Avdiivka has significantly increased over the past day because Russians are in the middle of the third wave of the offensive operation. Unfortunately for Russians, such attacks come at a great cost, as there are so many crates with bodies coming to the Rostov facilities that they have to leave them in the yard until the previous delivery is processed and frees up some space on the facilities.

Ain’t no doubt about it. Using this forum to pimp its YT channels yet won’t contribute to the fundraisers.

--- "I don't blame anyone for coming here and arguing against foreign warmongers hot to spend our hard-earned tax dollars and send our kids off to another useless foreign war."

Consider if there are any threads posted like unto UMCRevMom, by listing some direct albeit fictional correlations:

Update from Russia | Glory to Russia (uploaded from Switzerland) < s a r c >
"Pray for Russia" graphics < s a r c >
President Vladimir Putin - Official website < s a r c >
Operational information of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Russia < s a r c >
Ministry of Defense of Russia < s a r c >
First Deputy Prime Minister of Russia and Minister of Economy of Russia < s a r c >
Article -- Russia Today < s a r c >
VIDEO COMMENTARY -- Reporting from Russia (Alabama) < s a r c >
Looking through the Free Republic forum, there are no such threads posted. So the asserted "Putinistas" seem to missing a bet....

Refusing that there are more than two stances -- pro-Z or pro-P -- is a rhetorical game with a clear objective. To silence or at least dull criticism of the demonstrably corrupt Zelensky regime, for once upon a time "regime change" in Ukraine was desired (Nuland and her "F*ck Europe" diplomacy, the continuation of Obama and Biden and the deep state goals), but "regime change" in Ukraine is no longer desired.

Not as long as the grift can be sustained.

Your "arguing against foreign warmongers" is fine. Anyone complaining that you do seems to me Biden-Blinken-Nuland "adjacent."

After all, among the sometime sources for this daily thread are those who endorsed Biden over Trump in 2020. Biden-Blinken-Nuland "adjacent."

bimboeruption: "This thread is brought to you by the Ministry of Propaganda of Ukraine."

With many uncensored ridiculous responses directly from the sewer-information pipes of the Russian Ministry of Propaganda.

bimboeruption: "Denys Davydov is cited by mommy as a source for the vast majority of propaganda she posts.
Listed below are his YouTube estimated earnings for the last 10 months totaling $218.5K."

Key points about Davydov:

  1. Davydov is just one of many who report regularly on news from Ukraine.
    These are all based on public news reports and war-maps available from several sources.

  2. Davidov is arguably the most popular of these Ukraine oriented YouTubers, making him most valuable in presenting publicly known facts about Ukraine to the world.

  3. If Davydov's current income is indeed $218,000 that compares to earnings of a senior airline pilot, which was his pre-war job.
    Pilots earn circa $400,000 per year, so if anything, Davydov has taken a pay cut.

  4. There is no evidence proving Davydov is a "draft dodger".

  5. Beyond a YouTube address, there is no proof he's actually living in Switzerland.

  6. Davydov is a married family man.
    There's no evidence to support Mocker's claims he is "partying and living large" in Switzerland.

  7. Any suggestions about UMCRevMom@aol.com "Do you think mommy is getting a kickback?" are simply malicious insults, in violation of normal FR rules and so have no proper place on Free Republic, imho.

bimboeruption: "What’s false about it?"

Everything.
There's nothing true about it, there's no evidence to support it.

It's simply a malicious and defamatory personal attack which should have no place on Free Republic.

Of course, everyone understands you intend it as humorous political satire, and so the correct response is simply to notice how much of our anti-Uker commentary seems to come straight out from the disinformation sewer pipes of the Russian Ministry of Propaganda.

bimboeruption: "Respectfully, this is America. Christian America.
Our history does not include ‘GLory’ to anyone other than to God.
All Glory to God."

Respectfully, the dictionary definitions of "glory" include:

So, even in America, "glory" is perfectly acceptable for use as other than praise and worship of God.

And what does the Bible say about "glory"?

Bottom line: "glory" does not necessarily only refer to God.

bimboeruption: "Less propaganda would be appreciated."

The word "glory" does not make this thread either blasphemous or propaganda.
So you can relax and breathe easier now.
