Estimates of projected weather in Ukraine show Europe might experience a mild winter, potentially throwing a wrench in Russian President Vladimir Putin's plans to use Ukraine's harsh winters to his benefit.
Two weeks ago, a Russian politician suggested on state TV that the Kremlin should target Ukraine's energy supply, causing civilians to freeze and starve. Throughout October, Russia has increased its attacks on civilian infrastructure, targeting the electrical grid and plummeting parts of Ukraine into darkness and leaving some residents without a water supply. However, as winter approaches, new reports show Russia's plans to use cold weather to its advantage may not pan out as planned.
Last week, news organization Visegrád tweeted that new predictions from Poland's Center of Numerical Weather Prediction of the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management show Europe experiencing a mild winter.
"This neutralises many of Putin's hybrid warfare tactics including his attempts to weaponise energy and ramp prices further up,"Visegrád tweeted.

Send blankets,batteries and bottled water.
You get it and thanks........and Pooty Poot is still a Berkley nudist
Thanks ... you get it, and we shall see in 23
Yet, we have heard all of our lives that the weather worked to the advantage of the Russians against Napoleon and Hitler. Gaslight much? Oh wait, The Russians and the Ukrainians are all the same people from the historic Kievan Rus', so there is no advantage. Got it!
"I will gladly predict the weather on the first Tuesday in December for a hamburger today!"
“Putin Faces Another Setback in Ukraine War—The Weather”
Actually the weather is pretty nice in Moscow, at least for this time of year.
“Meanwhile all recent attempts by the Ukrainian army to penetrate the Russian held lines have failed. It is notable that these are now much smaller in size with just a battalion or in some cases just two companies in the lead. “
Yea, the Million Man March has pretty much fizzled out. That’s why Biden was SO MAD today when Zelensky came begging again. The Neocons had DEMANDED some measurable progress against Russia before the election here (since electing Democrats is far more important to Neocons than Ukrainian lives), and Zelensky didn’t come through - not even close.
In fact, one batch of mercenaries* said “Hell no, we won’t go”, when Zelensky tried to send them head first into Russian artillery.
*mercenaries, in this war, are Western soldiers who ‘retire’ a week before entering Ukraine, and then ‘re-enlist’ a week after leaving Ukraine, assuming they make it out alive.
.....and if the weather is cold that is gonna’ hurt Putin too...Baghdad Bob is alive,I tell ya’. Living large in Ukraine (betrayed by corrupt, unprepared government). If we send another 50 bill. do we get the ginzu knives?
Apparently, the same weather that is setting back the Russians is not setting back the Ukrainians.
LMAO.
Idiots who steadily write and then believe this shat.......
Bombing electricity grids have a purpose to stop railroad transportations and military productions. Ukrainians have enough power now to run their towns but if they turn off railroads and military productions.
So if there is blackouts in their towns so it means that Ukrainians prefer spend electricity not for civilians but for military.
Our source reports that Putin will join to the G20 in case if Zelensky goes there ready for broad peace talks, so that a temporary truce can be concluded.
At the moment, Zelensky is against any deals in every possible way, but many in the west are really tired of the so-called “Ukraine anchor”, which is getting harder on their economies and is more expensive to maintain every month.
We have written earlier that the negotiating case is ongoing and will end after the US election but before the G20.
If negotiations fail, a winter military campaign will begin and Ukraine will most likely be cut off from the “light” completely. The best time for this is the World Cup in Qatar, when the world will be busy with football.
Ukrainian TG-channel “Resident” writes:
“Our source in the Office of the President said that a meeting on the country’s energy security was held at Bankova yesterday, at which scenarios were presented for the development of the situation in Ukraine if missile strikes on critical infrastructure continue. “40 days, and then the unified power supply system will be disrupted, the country will turn into closed islands. Most of the territory of Ukraine will remain without electricity, rolling blackouts will not help, and the population will have to be evacuated so that the cities do not freeze.”
It’s going to be a frantic week for the Ukrainians this week, what with the imperative to deliver a Narrative “victory” for JoeTatoe and his neocon puppeteers before the US “election” - no matter how many Ukrainian soldiers die in lakes of blood...
Speaking of which, Alexander (The Duran) says Ukrainian casualties have tripled in the last few weeks.
But, one thing you can count on Zelensky for...unadulterated BS...:-)
Hope this new WSJ thing isn’t true...
WSJ: Saudi Arabia, U.S. on High Alert After Warning of Imminent Iranian Attack
Saudi officials said Tehran is poised to attack both the kingdom and Erbil in Iraq; White House NSC says the U.S. is prepared to respond
Sad for those young men.
The Saudi thing is probably more neocon pot-stirring. Scumbags.
It was in a live broadcast early this morning. Brian Berletic slipped in unexpectedly for the second half.
All three of them were depressingly negative. But, let’s face it there is nothing to be happy about these days.
My links go directly to the "video" portion of their channel. Many thanks for revealing this to me! :)

- The Red “flag of revenge” has been raised upon the Shahcheragh shrine
The flag states in Arabic: “Oh the avengers of Hussain”, a religious reference to the martyrdom of Imam Hussain, the 3rd Shiite Imam.
Why this is noteworthy:
Well, this is the same flag that was raised upon the Jamkaran Mosque after the assassination of General Qasem Soleimani, which was subsequently followed by Iranian missile strikes on US bases in Iraq.
We can probably expect something soon, considering the heavy symbolism that comes with raising this flag, which is usually only raised in the mourning month of Muharram.
Besides that, IRGC Generals have been making frequent direct threats to Saudi Arabia, the intellectual supervisor of ISIS, in recent days.
