Russia-Ukraine Reports - 2023-10-13
"If Israel does enter Gaza and hunts down the Hamas leadership, Hezbollah’s priority would be to open a second (and maybe a third and fourth) front against Israel to halt the Israelis’ momentum. In doing so, it would bring in armed militias from Iraq and perhaps Yemen to bolster its forces, which could widen the scope of operations."

"Zelensky under pressure over funding": India is concerned that, faced with desperation due to a lack of Western funding, Zelensky might resort to drastic measures, such as sabotaging a nuclear power plant or attempting an assassination on Putin.
"Volodymyr Zelensky is in a dire situation. The turmoil on Capitol Hill, following the removal of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, has made securing new military funding from the US for the Ukraine conflict challenging.
The Kiev counter-offensive's failure to significantly impact the battlefield has left European governments deeply frustrated. This desperation makes the Ukrainian president a potentially dangerous figure. He may resemble the proverbial wounded tiger, often depicted in literature as defenseless and capable of anything.
The Kiev government could intentionally cause radiation leaks at its nuclear facilities, then blame Russia for any resulting escalation. As the winter brings snow and mud, eastern Ukraine will soon become inhospitable terrain, making it challenging to reclaim territory from Russia through military means. A significant concern is that a desperate Ukrainian deep state could make attempts on the lives of Russian President Vladimir Putin and senior Kremlin leaders, as it allegedly did in May.”

Russian Defence Ministry reports:
- A hangar with AFU landing boats was hit near Solonchaky in Nikolayev Region
- Also, a warehouse of AFU military equipment was hit near Izmail, Odessa region.
- At the airfields "Mirgorod" in Poltava region and "Dnipro" in Dnepropetrovsk region, warehouses of aviation weapons of the Ukrainian air forces were destroyed.

The AFU destroyed a bridge over the Seversky Donets-Donbass canal in response to our fighters occupying a position (https://t.me/OstashkoNews/100079) near the Avdeevka coke plant.
The route between Gorlovka and Donetsk previously provided communication for our troops. Now, it remains open only via Karlo-Marxovo and Yenakievo, but fortunately, there is almost no significant loss of time. This also serves as a safer logistical route. As reported by fighters in the field, this highlights the importance of not underestimating the Avdeevka operation from the enemy's perspective.
By the way, a couple of days ago, the Russian Armed Forces severely disrupted the logistics of the AFU. A powerful artillery strike obliterated the railway station and railway infrastructure in Ocheretino (video 2). This is a critical supply point for the Ukrainian garrison in Avdeevka.

Iran has offered Russia its 'grain corridors.'
Iran's Deputy Minister of Economy and Finance for Economic Policy, Seyed Ali Rouhani, has extended an offer to Russia, providing assistance in exporting Russian grain to third countries.
"Iran can not only import grain from Russia to meet its own needs but also serve as a corridor for exporting Russian grain to third countries," the deputy minister stated.
He emphasized the safety of this alternative Iranian route amid the Ukrainian conflict and anti-Russian sanctions.
"This route certainly represents a path toward long-term partnership and strategy," concluded Rouhani.

The gauleiter of Ukrainian occupied Avdeevka, Vitaly Barabash, described (https://t.me/stranaua/126860) the situation in the city as very tense, as he starts feeling the heat of the offensive.
“There is a lot of destruction, they are mainly trying to hit multi-storey buildings in the city. The situation is very tense. For the third day now, the enemy has not stopped assaulting positions around the city. They shoot both at positions and at the city with everything they have. Hundreds of attacks on positions, dozens on the city,” the head of the GVA said.
He claims 1,622 people remain in the city. A strangely precise number. Pre war Avdeevka had more than 30k people
According to him, two people may be under the rubble of one of the destroyed high-rise buildings, but it is impossible to start work due to constant shelling, said Vitaly Barabash.
It was from Avdeevka that throughout the past 9 years many attacks were launched against densely populated areas of the greater Donetsk, with many casualties and absolutely no military gain from it. Suddenly, now he cares about civilians.

Senior US officials have stepped up efforts to get other Western countries to use frozen reserves of the Bank of Russia (https://t.me/yuzhny_front_ZOV) to help Ukraine, The Washington Post has reported.
"The US has become much more open to the idea of not only confiscating but also using Russian reserves," one of the newspaper's interlocutors said.
The buildup comes as the US and Europe face new domestic political obstacles to additional appropriations for Kiev's military needs, though officials insist the issues are unrelated, the Post notes.

The enemy is exerting pressure in this area. Infantry units are advancing towards our positions, and with artillery support, they are making determined efforts to establish even a single trench in an open field.
Our artillery is engaging the enemy's advances at close range. This temporarily deters any attempts by enemy groups to approach. But the continuous rotation allows AFU to replace the wounded and fallen soldiers and keep attacking our positions.

▫️ He does not regret his decision, because surrendering is the only way to survive.

The Russian army is advancing near Donetsk, and the enemy is transferring reserves to prevent Avdeevka from being surrounded
An offensive has been ongoing for nearly three days near the capital of the DPR, with extensive support from artillery, aviation, and TOS Solntsepek. Progress is impeded by minefields, and the enemy is actively employing kamikaze drones and 'Baba Yaga' bombers in an attempt to slow down our troops.
Our forces are advancing toward each other in the direction of the village of Berdychi and the village of Tonenkoye, which is 5 kilometers west of Avdeevka.
The enemy is deploying reinforcements to hold back the Russian troops, particularly in the Berdychi area.
South of Novomikhailovka, a Russian Forces launched an assault in a wooded area and captured several AFU positions, resulting in ongoing combat.
Russian forces are continuing their offensive in the direction of Tonenkoye and Severnoye.
Intense fighting persists as we advance toward Vodyanoye.
To the northeast of the village of Stepovoye, Russian armed forces are attacking on the approaches to the railway.
West of Krasnogorovka, the Russian army is advancing toward the railway, leading to clashes in the grey zone, according to Ukrainian military analysts.
The AFU General Staff reports seven attacks by the Russian Armed Forces near Avdeevka and an additional seven attacks near Lastochkino, Tonenkoye, Pervomayskoye, and Nevelskoye.
More than ten airstrikes were launched against AFU positions near Avdeevka. AFU positions in Novokalinovo, Stepovoye, Pervomayskoye, and Nevelskoye are also under fire.

Elena Panina, director of the Institute for International Strategic Studies: “The deep cause of the current crisis lies in the impudent behavior of Washington cowboys, who decided to simply discard the “Palestinian issue” and reduce the extremely confusing situation in the Middle East to simple solutions.
Here we must understand that, at a minimum, without the implementation of UN resolutions on the creation of a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders with its capital in East Jerusalem, no lasting peace in the region is possible. This position is shared by Russia, China, Turkey, Iran, as well as the League of Arab States.
The situation today is such that Israel is now going to go all-in. He intends to wipe out any hint of Palestinian statehood and clear out their remaining territories.
This position of Tel Aviv and Washington behind it puts the entire Middle East on the brink of a big war - with the risk of destruction, including the Jewish state itself."

This morning, when leaving Sevastopol Bay, Ukrainian underwater drones attacked the Project 22160 patrol ship "Pavel Derzhavin".
Unfortunately, the ship received damage to the rudder group. To provide assistance, a tug was sent to the Derzhavin, which was also attacked by the enemy. The ships remained underway, but the extent of the damage is unknown.
The use of fully submersible unmanned boats for attack.
This explains the absence of any opposition from the ship’s crew (they were not noticed), as well as the passage of sea drones through the booms. There are certain difficulties in effectively countering this threat that need to be addressed as soon as possible. Since the Ukrainian Armed Forces hit them now, the number of such attacks will grow in the near future. And the use of drones underwater creates an additional danger

The key points from Vladimir Putin's statements at the summit of the CIS heads of state are as follows:
▫️Some countries are listed, even though they do not operate within the CIS format, but the commonwealth remains an effective framework.

Talk about the same-old propaganda techniques, like "they're beasts, they killed 40 newborns".
On the screen is the girl Naiira, who in 1990 told the U.S. Congress that she personally saw Iraqi soldiers taking newborn babies out of incubator boxes and throwing them on the floor to die.
The story was immediately confirmed by Amnesty International. The invasion of Iraq began a short time later.
However, it later emerged that the text of the story was written as part of a "we need the US to invade Iraq" campaign called Citizens for a Free Kuwait. The campaign was organized by the American firm Hill & Knowlton, for money. It also organized a speech to Congress. And the girl turned out to be the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States, Saud Al-Sabah. She was not in Kuwait at the time of the events, but was studying in the United States.
That's how it's done.
And yes, I did say we have long memories.
In general, watch the classics: wag the dog

🇷🇺 🇺🇦 Orekhovsky area: slowing down the pace of Ukrainian attacks
situation as of 17.00 October 13, 2023
🔻South of Orekhov , the Armed Forces of Ukraine are still trying to expand the wedge zone into the defensive lines of the Russian Armed Forces. But now the pace of the offensive has slowed down for obvious reasons due to heavy losses.
▪️Yesterday, an armored group of the 12th tank battalion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to attack the positions of the Russian Army in the landings northeast of Novoprokopovka , but to no avail.
▪️The village of Rabotino , which the Ukrainian Armed Forces spoke of as captured, is still in the gray zone. Its location is unfavorable for developing an attack, and all approaches are shot from the heights, so there are neither our troops nor the Ukrainian Armed Forces there.
▪️To strengthen the group, a column of 65 ombres was deployed from Novodanilovka . At the same time, during the movement, one infantry fighting vehicle of an unknown type was blown up by its own mine.
🔻Some of the ordinariness of battles at the site should not be misleading. Ukrainian formations are preparing for a new attack. Now their efforts are concentrated on counter-battery warfare. The Arthur , AN/TPQ-36 and -50 radars were pulled to the front line.
And at a short distance from the LBS, nine combined assault detachments with a total number of up to 300 people are formed from the 23rd and 65th infantry brigades, 128th separate brigade, 71st ebr, 82nd airborne brigade and 15th NSU brigade.
And activation should be expected at approximately the same time as the Kherson direction , where the Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to interrupt the logistics support of the front line. And the attack on the Rabotino-Verbovoe line, apparently, should be a distraction.

‼️🔥"The whole of Avdeevka is burning, the hardest battles are going on, the Russians are advancing for 4 days."

Shooting battles, it’s working artillery around the clock. The enemy's assault operations do not stop. The situation is very difficult, but controllable."

Something is shot down over Gaza. Hamas claims it's an Israeli plane.
@Slavyangrad
“Israel Defense Forces warn one million Palestinians in northern Gaza to evacuate within 24 hours.”
Israel is forcing Palestinians to leave the country immediately, but Gazans have nowhere to go.
“According to a UN official, at midnight the Israeli Army notified the UN that the entire Palestinian population north of Wadi Gaza must move to southern Gaza within 24 hours. The IDF may launch a ground invasion after six days of aerial bombardment in response to a massive Hamas attack on Saturday.”
About 1.1 million Palestinians live north of Wadi Gaza, the statement said. The warning also applies to UN employees. Israel has already imposed a complete siege on Gaza, cutting off water, electricity, and gas, closing its border crossings in the enclave, and has also bombed Egypt's Rafah crossing, rendering it unusable.
@Slavyangrad
Overnight, Israeli fighter jets struck 750 military targets in the north of the Gaza Strip, the Israeli army reported.
Israel also demanded that residents of the Gaza Strip evacuate south within 24 hours.
“The terrorist organization Hamas has waged war against Israel, and Gaza City is the site of military operations. Evacuation is necessary for your own safety. You will only be able to return to Gaza City once this has been announced. Do not approach the Israeli security fence,” the message says.
@Slavyangrad
British mercenaries who trained the Ukrainian military are leaving for Israel to take part in the fighting against Hamas.
@Slavyangrad
Frames filmed by Hamas militants of the first minutes of the attack on participants in a music festival that took place on the border with Gaza on the night of October 7 have appeared.
The bodies of 260 people shot by the militants would later be found at the site of the attack.
