Along Avdeyevka South direction.
10:00. 11/22/23
From 7 am and for about 30-40 minutes there was strong and intense shelling of the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, but in response there were arrivals in the suburbs of Donetsk.
Afterwards, the intensity decreased and the sounds of shell explosions shifted to the southwest, west of Avdeyevka and to the western side of Donetsk. After which the flights from the Ukrainian Armed Forces suddenly stopped.
Around 9:00, explosions were heard on the southern side of Avdeyevka and the number of explosions on the southwestern side increased sharply.
Closer to 10:00 it turned into a calm channel, when somewhere, something exploded.
In Donetsk, since last night the temperature has dropped sharply and this morning it was already - 10 C. The ground began to freeze and dry, but for now it is still quite soft and wet, but if this continues, then very soon there will be more opportunities for moving equipment on the ground surfaces.
Let's wait for news and keep our fingers crossed for our warriors!

Avdeevka direction
According to reports from military jounalists' Telegram channels, yesterday in the Khimic district, enemy positions were targeted with RBK-500 cluster munitions equipped with the UMPK module. Ukrainians experienced the impact of the numerous cassettes used. Judging by radio interception data, they did not respond favorably.
From Avdeevka, information circulating through enemy sources indicates that the command of enemy forces is compelling its soldiers to storm without artillery support. The crucial aspect is that it affects only subordinates, not the commanders personally.
On the northern flank at Tochmash, our troops advanced and extended control east of the railway branch.
There is heightened activity of enemy copters along the entire Avdeevka section.
At Stepovoye, the enemy attempted a counterattack, aiming to hinder our force accumulation at the settlement, employing cluster munitions.
To the south of Stepovoye, the enemy, utilizing an armored vehicle, conducted a rotation at the railway track in forest plantations.
Our army is engaging coke processing plant with barrel artillery and aviation.
In Avdeevka, the enemy tried to evacuate personnel and equipment, resulting in the destruction of part of their forces.
In the Industrial Zone, the enemy launches counterattacks, but the Russian Armed Forces repel the assaults and maintain control of the situation.

⚠️ URGENTLY! Based on the situation in the Avdeyevsky direction.
On the southern flank, in the area of the industrial zone, the Russian Armed Forces carried out a daring raid and established control over 5 buildings, the attack was carried out quickly, competently and silently, the enemy did not have time to come to his senses and understand what was happening until the end of the attack:
The crest had previously withdrawn a significant part of the forces from this area under the pressure of incessant attacks; the remaining forces and observation posts were discovered and studied by our reconnaissance means; by the start of the attack, the enemy patrols had been neutralized - the crest confidently missed the flash.
Our assault infantry rolled through the buildings, taking up positions in the shortest possible time and eliminating the accompanying obstacles.
The enemy did not have time to request either reinforcements or fire.
Tigers in the industrial zone show remarkable creativity and audacity in assault actions, beautiful work.
May good luck be with you, warriors!

Former Obama advisor Stuart Seldovitz - told a hot dog vendor that 4,000 Palestinian children killed, not enough: [I'm working now. Please leave] You don't work here. Nobody works here. I'll put a big sign next to it that says, "This guy supports Hamas." [I was born here] But you're a terrorist, you support terrorism. [I don't support anything] You kill little children. You're a terrible person. [You kill people, not me] I don't kill children. If we killed four thousand Palestinian children, it wasn't enough.
@Slavyangrad
Famous interview of former US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: [We heard that sanctions against Iraq killed more than half a million children. More than in Hiroshima. And do you think that's justified?] I think it's a very difficult choice. But we think it's justified.
Why are these puppets so similar?

After careful consideration, Switzerland has chosen to sell its old Leopard-2 tanks in storage to Germany
Switzerland is transferring the equipment with the strictest condition that it does not reach Ukraine. The FRG has assured that it will indeed not be sent to Ukraine, as there is a need to address gaps in the Bundeswehr and other NATO armies.
However, the business deal has taken an interesting turn – essentially providing its newly modified native tanks to Ukraine almost for free, only to purchase old tanks from Switzerland that were initially bought from... Germany.

🇮🇱⚔🇵🇸The Illusion of Victory: How Israel's Faux Triumph Masks a Strategic Stalemate
In the shadow of Gaza's smoldering ruins, a narrative of Israeli invincibility unravels. The recent ceasefire agreement, brokered amidst the ruins of Gaza City, lays bare a truth both stark and unspoken: Israel, the self-proclaimed bastion of strength, now confronts reality. This is not the story of a victor dictating terms but an admission of a strategic impasse, an uncomfortable stalemate with Hamas, the very entity it vowed to obliterate.
The saga of al-Shifa Hospital stands as a testament to this altered reality. Israeli tanks, heralded by the thunder of war, rolled into this sanctuary of healing, claiming it housed a command centre of Hamas. This audacious assault, backed by Washington's diplomatic heft and echoed by hollow claims of 'intelligence,' proved to be a futile endeavour. The fabled Palestinian Pentagon beneath the hospital's floors? A mirage, a figment of strategic desperation. The US, in its usual choreography, spun tales to cover these military missteps, offering a veneer of legitimacy to what many saw as a blatant war crime. This was less about decimating an adversary and more about salvaging a semblance of tactical success, a pyrrhic victory atop the ruins of a sanctuary.
Beneath the surface of this military bravado, negotiations were brewing, a dance of diplomacy that belied the public posturing. The deal, as it emerged, was a near mirror of Hamas's initial proposal – a proposal Israel had once arrogantly dismissed. It demanded and received Israel's consent to release a greater number of Palestinian prisoners, abstain from the daily bloodshed, and ease the suffocating blockade that has long choked Gaza. This is not the portrait of a vanquished foe, but of a resilient adversary, dictating terms to those who once vowed its destruction.

Russian multirole fighters MiG-35 generation 4++ are used during a special military operation (SMO). The general designer of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) Sergei Korotkov spoke about this, RIA Novosti reports.
“Today, in connection with the events that are taking place, the machine is already participating in all the operations that are being carried out. Further test flights still have to be completed, and then the Ministry of Defense will make a final decision,” he said, answering the question whether a decision had been made on serial purchases of the MiG-35 for the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS).
Korotkov also noted that in parallel, negotiations are underway on the supply of MiG-35 for export. According to him, the characteristics of the aircraft “satisfy the foreign customer.”

Diary of a Paratrooper:
🪂 The RBK-500 can eliminate enemy attacks on the front line.
Footage of the use of RBK-500 cluster bombs by our aviation near Avdeyevka and Staromayorsky appeared in TG channels.
One of the Pshek publications published an expert’s opinion on the use of the RBK-500 cluster bomb by the Russian Armed Forces, in which they compared the RBK-500 in terms of destruction parameters with the warhead of the ATACAMS missile.
Quote: The most dangerous thing is to combine the RBK-500 with the cheap UMPC planning module. This is flying doom.
If we expand the use of cluster bombs in air attacks, of which there are more than a hundred per day, then we will be able to get rid of enemy counterattacks at the front line, since at this stage cluster bombs can help overcome the shortage of shells at the front.
But in this case, we need to take great care of our aviation, which the crests will now begin to actively hunt.
For reference:
The RBK-500, in service since 1987, has a mass of 500 kg. It is housed in a cylindrical body with a braking parachute. Having dropped to a certain height after being dropped, the bomb detonates, dispersing several hundred small-sized charges (coverage approximately the size of a football field), so-called submunitions, over the battlefield.

Growing worries that the EU will fall short of its pledge to supply a million artillery shells to Ukraine by March is forcing France to do an about-face on its earlier insistence that the ammunition should only be sourced in Europe.
However, before resorting to foreign suppliers, the EU needs to actually miss the March target, a senior French diplomat told POLITICO.
So far the bloc is well short of the million shell mark, sending Ukraine only about a third of that amount.
Earlier this month, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said the target wouldn’t be met and that it was too ambitious to begin with.
But close is still pretty good, says the EU’s diplomatic service.

Germany and France are urgently asking their American partners to provide them with fuel, which they lack due to sanctions against Russia and the war in the Middle East.
European countries were expecting an alternative supply route as the situation becomes alarming for the industry, but there are none.

⚠️ Based on the situation in the Avdeyevsky direction.
On the southern flank, after a powerful night artillery barrage, the Russian Armed Forces carried out offensive operations in the area of the industrial zone from early morning.
Massive strikes from rocket and cannon artillery were carried out against enemy targets, including rest areas and temporary deployment points for personnel.
On the territory of the industrial zone, our assault infantry, with the support of tanks, pushed through the enemy’s defenses and reached the holiday villages southwest of the industrial zone, and also advanced to the west.
At the moment, our forces control 80% of the industrial zone, leaving 3 buildings on the western outskirts in the hands of the Ukrainian.
The enemy snarled with mortars and AGS, barrel artillery showed some activity, but was unable to provide much resistance; both the general condition of the personnel and the consequences of the night artillery barrage of our gods of war, who hammered at enemy targets from all calibers for several hours, affected.
The song of the Ukrainian in the industrial area is practically sung, they may begin to whine that it still had no tactical significance, soon this propaganda will be useful to them.
Our men are the best! With God blessing!

⚠️ Based on the situation in the Avdeyevsky direction.
On the northern flank today, our army has focused on destroying the enemy’s manpower and materiel.
Rocket artillery and aviation attacked the AKHZ, and reparations were also poured out to the Ukrainians in the area of the village of Berdychi.
Massive attacks were carried out on the forest belts in the area of the settlement of Novokalinovo, the plantings were naturally plowed, along with the enemy entrenched in that area.
In the north of Krasnogorovka, the enemy is literally biting into the area where two railway lines intersect, despite constant attacks they have not yet left this area, but even a wall made of cheap Ukrainian infantry will sooner or later break under the constant pressure of the laws of physics.
In general, the same tactics are retained, the main efforts are aimed at maximizing the destruction of enemy personnel, we see a completely reasonable, but cynical meaning in this: what difference does it make how many kilometers of concrete the enemy poured into positions if there is no one to guard these positions?
But, regardless of all this, the crest will not hold Avdeyevka.
Everything will be as Russia needs.

The situation in the Rabotino-Verbovoye section remains rather tense.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces periodically attack in the directions of Novofedorovka and the outskirts of Verbovoy itself, as well as Novoprokopovka; from time to time Counterattacks by the Russian Armed Forces are observed. However, over the recent past, the front line has not changed significantly. Artillery is actively working, but the weather temporarily impedes the movement of armored vehicles.
