We all know ‘cranked’ is not an American. He is a RuZZian national. A real crackpot.

I encourage everyone to ignore him. I don’t intend to ever respond to him again.

Everyone’s own decision of course.

Speedy you seem to be enjoying this Slavic death fest a bit too much. Do you realize the prime beneficiaries of the death of these two nations are the globalists. Both Ukraine and Russia, thanks to Putin’s insane, catastrophic decision have been grinded into pliable cogs of the new world order controlled by elites. Notice none of the organizations such as the UN that usually would be screaming for peace and the end of hostilities are lifting a finger to end the carnage. Then again perhaps you are a globalist yourself and, as is your right, are just cheering for your side.

Ukraine: military situation update with maps, Dec 3, 2022

(Numbered printed material below - Some of the items below may be out of date, and not updated yet)

••Denotes Transcribed Dialogue. The entirety of the analysis is from a Ukrainian guy named War in Ukraine’s daily video - I only transcribe it. Extras are just that - from other sites, or my comments marked (Edit: .... )

-—> Ukraine Situation Report: Kremlin Says Putin Will ‘Eventually’ Visit Donbas <——
It’s not clear when the Russian president will visit, or how much of the Donbas his army will still hold when he gets there.
https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/ukraine-situation-report-kremlin-says-putin-will-eventually-visit-donbas

Excerpt:
Finland is now reportedly transferring its decommissioned power grid equipment to Ukraine in an effort to speed up repairs as power needs grow further into winter.

———————————————————————————————————————
Summary:
no major changes.

Key areas:
- North Lugansk: no changes, unconfirmed reports that Russian troops captured Pidhorodne north of Bakhmut.
- North Donbass area: no changes.
- Central Donbass (Donetsk West): no changes.
- Zaporizhya: no changes.

———————————————————————————————————————
••Belarus:
Russian Minister of Defense suddenly and urgently visited Belarus to sign or extend a basic agreement on military cooperation, and then Belarus’ president after that unexpected and unannounced visit, said that now both armies are working as one.

It was a very strange & unexpected Saturday, the agreement was actually signed on the airfield, literally one hour after he landed, he didn’t even go to Minsk, the capital, the whole thing looks very unusual. I don’t have more information, but the whole is a very strange situation.

In addition, there was another comment from Belarus’ president that ‘the war will continue, as the West is not ready for negotiations, and Belarus is preparing for potential NATO attack’, which is bogus, but at the same time where there is a smoke, there is probably fire.

••Ukraine:
Ukrainian in a military as always is talking about potential attacks from Belarus, and its very unlikely. There are simply not enough resources in the Belarus army - it’s too small, I mentioned before, that real size of Belarus Army is somewhere around 15,000 battle-ready soldiers. There its a big question of the willingness to actually do anything, there is clearly very low desire in in Belarus’s society to get into this war; there’s not enough Russian troops to launch a new offensive from the north on Ukraine and potentially Kiev; this goal I can talks about potential second invasion from Belarus are some distraction from the real problems on the battlefield.

I reported this a month ands a half ago and now Bloomberg has reported Russia has assembled a fleet of 103 oil tankers screwed oil tankers to await the price cap the West has put on it; they purchased 10-15 year old tankers on the world market, and will try to create a black market , and there are definitely buyers for crude, because there is just simply not enough of it in this world,

••Russia and Iran.
I don’t know to what extent this is true, but there are reports that Iranian leadership ask Russia for help with destroying Iranian opposition or the putting down the civil war that started in Iran, because they don’t have enough resources, they don’t have enough knowledge: the real know-how the Russian side has on how to do it, is really being completely merciless and brutality shocking, and that’s the know-how the Russians can introduce to Iran; apparently, the local authorities are not cruel enough, so Russian advisors will come and help them to be brutal enough.

••Ukraine and US and West:
On December 7 U.S Senators which is upper chamber of the US Congress will be we’ll be given a secret or classified briefing on help to Ukraine there is US$37 billion on the table that needs to be approved by the US Congress, and apparently there is not enough support, or there’s a lot of passion starting to pop up in the US Congress: why are we helping so much, the executive branch of US government , will have to resort to providing more secret information on the reasoning for it, in order to convince the Congress to continue support of the Ukraine, which I think is going to be there.

I don’t think its going to change, but this is another small sign of the tiredness of this war, and Congress has started to question why we are there - beyond just general, ‘we we’re trying to help Ukraine’, - but as as everybody knows, its about maintaining the existing world order, status quo, and because Ukraine is just a small subset of the big war or fight between West and Russia, Iran, and China who want to uproot the existing status quo.

Another potential battlefield is Taiwan: that’s the real reason for helping Ukraine is really maintaining status quo, and its not really about helping Ukraine, but its actually helping itself to survive, that’s a driver behind all of the support, and in this case, the interests of Ukrainian population, citizens, & society are aligned with the interest of the West.

••Asia to China and Taiwan:
The head of Japanese Liberal Democratic Party is going to visit Taiwan from December 10th till 13th, there’s a lot this huge traffic happening to Taiwan. I mentioned yesterday UK Representatives & from the US Congress have gone there & now Representative from a Japanese Party. There’s something is happening there, behind the scenes, some preparation or negotiation or some plan is being discussed.

There was the statement by 42 US Senators or Representatives, don’t remember which, that told China it should not use strong force against the covid lockdown protesters, which I’m pretty sure extremely irritated the Chinese leadership, because they view it as an intrusion into their sovereignty.

Its very clear that those protesters have right to protest, there is no question, as I mentioned before the lockdowns are not about solving a health problem, they are about controlling the population, and as I said before, the economic situation is becoming so bad that flare-ups, riots will happen more and more in China.

••Ukraine Power Grid:
It is still there, still hanging on, the situation is bad - like a heavily wounded person who is in coma, a stable coma: that’s the best way to describe Ukrainian power grid situation for ordinary people who are switching to power generators, which are very expensive, burning a lot of fuel pretty quickly; opportunities to earn money in Ukraine are extremely limited. I explained the economy is non-existent: the best you can get is to work for the government.

Those government workers are surviving through all of this, or you have some new business that’s not gonna get effected by the bad economy; for example, producing food, also very basic things - anything that’s more abstract, more more complex, is quickly dying, and eventually there will be a problem in Ukraine in a couple months about how to support these people, because they will eventually run out of their savings.

The only sensible way is to give them some money, or I don’t know or have street kitchens to feed people; its already happening in Kharkiv - there are street kitchens you can go and get some food for people who feel they they have the need - the war is really turning into a true ugly face, where people are becoming totally destitute, and many of them, especially those who live in large cities, will have to rely on external support.

••Switzerland
News coming out of Switzerland says they are banning electric vehicles, because are they putting too much stress on the power generation & power grid.

Tomorrow, I will be ready to discuss this whole energy system, what works and what doesn’t, then I’ll explain in more detail why electric vehicles just don’t work - I’m not even talking about the pollution being created to manufacture them, which is actually much more horrific, much more than words can actually say - more than from diesel fuel and gasoline, but EVs don’t even work from just technical perspective, from a perspective of power rate that exists - we’ll probably talk about that tomorrow.

••North Luhansk’:
Only one Russian attack in the south, no Ukrainian attacks. I said there’s a theory or idea that the Ukrainian side is slowly losing initiative here, is in in my opinion, becoming more and more true and realistic, because as I said, there is high chance that Russia will launch an offensive, sometime in January, maybe even as early as second half of December.

••North Donbas:
The situation for Ukrainian side is the most critical here. Things are not going well as a whole - it was fairly quiet day today. with the exception of Solidar where there was Russian attack. There are also an unconfirmed report that Russian Wagner mercenaries have managed to capture a village north east of Bakhmut or almost north northeast, if that’s true, the situation is becoming worse by the day, because in the south of there was quite a huge progress by Russian troops, and now the northern flank is becoming a very difficult situation.

The question of leaving Bakhmut is becoming more and more realistic, more and more on the table for Ukrainian side; the salient is becoming bigger, and the whole point is the salient is moving a little bit closer to the west.

Russian side will have soon fire control of two essential roads - once they advance that far then its really gonna be pretty much writing on the wall - Ukrainian troops will lose Bakhmut at that point. Otherwise it was relatively quiet day, not much happened, but that’s just normal - I would think that Wagner mercenaries are regrouping to continue their attacks.

••Central Donbas:
Things here are more or less the same as always and much more stable for Ukrainian side - north of Adivka and Marinka, Russian troops are attacking without my success, things are much better shape here, and I want to mention that this Piskey area is is second area where there is quite a bit of concern, but its not as bad as how things are developing around Bakhmut.

Russia is moving on a broad front in Donetsk and the Ukrainians are paying a terrible price. Not my opinion. It is the judgment of a neo-Nazi Ukrainian commander:

The commander of the neo-Nazi Svoboda battalion, Petro Kuzik, whose unit is trying to hold Bakhmut, told Western media that the fields and forests around are littered with the corpses of Ukrainian soldiers, and they have to defend themselves in extreme cold and knee-deep in water.

“They [the Russians] sensed a weakness in our defenses because there are units that are less motivated than ours. And yesterday they slightly weakened our defenses in the area immediately around Bakhmut. Some units could not withstand this artillery onslaught and retreated.”

Asked how serious the loss of life is, he said: “They are colossal. We don’t even count the bodies.”

“The lack of equipment was added to the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Bakhmut: the main thing

Due to the temperature drop in the Bakhmut district, the problem with spare parts and rubber for foreign equipment has worsened for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which the Military Chronicle reported earlier. During the day, impassable mud is replaced by severe frosts, which makes it difficult to use wheeled armored vehicles MaxxPro, Bushmaster, Sisu and Kirpi.

For the delivery of ammunition, medicines and food to the garrison of the city, the Ground Forces of Ukraine use Soviet armored personnel carriers MT-LB, removed from storage in the Dnepropetrovsk and Kharkov regions.

The advanced units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are forced to get to the line of clashes in civilian vehicles, which is why both regular formations and territorial defense brigades suffer heavy losses.

From November 30 to December 4, the shortage of armored vehicles caused high losses in the 109th and 241st Territorial Defense Brigades in the southeast in the area of ​​Opytny, the Kastus Kalinouski Regiment of Belarusian Nationalists, and the 71st Jaeger Brigade. The situation in the Azov National Battalion (the organization was recognized as a terrorist organization) is especially difficult: among others, the deputy commander of the company, Anton Radko, was seriously wounded. When trying to get out of the shelling on the southeastern outskirts of Bakhmut, five Georgian mercenaries from the “Foreign Legion” of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were killed.

The highest percentage of losses in these units was recorded as a result of the use of Kornet and Konkurs ATGMs by Wagner PMC units, as well as T-80BV tanks supported by D-20 and Giacint-B guns.”

“Russian troops continue their successful attack on Artemovsk. During the day, our fighters destroyed more than 50 militants and six armored vehicles. There were reports, not yet confirmed, that the Nazis began to withdraw their main forces from the center to the northern outskirts of the city.
Foreign mercenaries operating as part of the Artyomovsk group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are also suffering losses. Thus, Georgian TG channels report the death of six Georgians: Avto Rurua, Romeo Pichkhaya, Romeo Kvaratskhelia, Badri Markelia, Merab Aladashvili, Jaba Khoperia. Considering that a whole unit of these militants is surrounded by our troops, we can expect that the number of liquidated mercenaries is somewhat higher.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian sources report that as a result of an arrival at the SKMZ workshops in Kramatorsk, a fuel and lubricants warehouse was destroyed, which also serves the Artemovskoye direction, as well as workshops where a partial repair of equipment took place, which will also aggravate the position of the group. In Kyiv, Bakhmut (Artemovsk) was officially recognized as the most difficult direction.

Apparently, despite the fact that Zelensky demands to keep Bakhmut at all costs, on Bankovaya they understand that the fate of the city has already been decided. Against this background, a number of sources report that the Ze-team is trying to transfer to this doomed direction the most problematic formations for them, over which it does not have one hundred percent control - “the Georgian legion is among them.”

But the Ze-office is well aware that the release of Bakhmut will largely nullify the achievements of Bandera in the Kharkiv and Kherson directions. And therefore, the Nazi regime hopes to somehow level this defeat and try to end the year with a “winning case”. Ukrainian sources report that Zaluzhny is required to take Kremennaya by the end of the year, and Svatovo in the first months of 2023.

However, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have a problem with the resources to achieve these goals, in particular, the reinforcements that arrived in November, trained in Britain, Poland, and other NATO countries, have already been partially used up in fruitless attacks on the fortified positions of our troops, including in the Krasno-Limansky direction . The energy crisis is also becoming a significant problem, paralyzing logistics and the work of repair shops.

At the same time, the “accumulative effect” of strikes begins to work in the energy system. Due to unbalance of power grids, transformers burn every day. A meeting at the Ze-office was even devoted to this problem, but so far they have not found a way out of the catastrophic situation.”

Bashkir soldiers fighting in the Ukrainian Army against their Russian oppressors.

Their arm patches show the flag of the future independent republic of Bashkortostan.

There is still a lot of punch left in that old bear, and things will probably get worse this Winter, before they get better next year.

@visegrad24

“Russia is sending a lot of military hardware to Belarus again.”

@TadeuszGiczan

“A train carrying 15 Tor-M2s, sent by Russia to Belarus on 25 November, was spotted near Krupki, Minsk Region (halfway between Orsha and Minsk). According to the community of Belarusian railway workers, this is not the last train with this type of cargo (https://t.me/belzhd_live/2030).”

For your interest:

(https://mezha.media/en/2022/11/04/in-8-5-months-from-february-24-2022-russia-lost-more-aircraft-in-ukraine-than-in-10-years-in-afghanistan/)

“In total, over 10 years in Afghanistan, the USSR lost 118 aircraft and 333 helicopters”

“the greatest losses in aviation of the USSR were suffered in the Korean War (1950–1953). According to American data, the USSR, China and North Korea together missed 750 aircraft. The US and its allies lost 413 aircraft.

A few more wars with large aviation losses are the Yom Kippur War (1973), when the Israelis destroyed 277 Egyptian and Syrian planes in 20 days, losing only 6 of their own, and the Iran-Iraq War (1980–1988) – 234 Iraqi and 73 Iranian planes were shot down.

According to the data of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, 277 aircraft, 258 helicopters and 1450 UAVs of the Russian aggressors have been destroyed today (as of 4 Nov 2022).

According to documented data of Oryx OSINT the Russians lost 63 planes, 57 helicopters and 143 UAVs. But we remember that Oryx data, as usual, can be safely multiplied by 3-4.”
