Ukraine’s Coming DEFEAT to Russia Accelerates Multipolar World

Chemical weapons, Earthquake, Desertion – Ukrainian army, Threats from Poland

Biden ACCUSED Of Offering Putin Parts Of Ukraine

The participation of the United States in the Ukrainian conflict as one of the parties excludes the possibility of any form of mutual military control, according to the Russian Foreign Ministry .

The situation is indeed rather absurd: the United States, waging a hybrid war against Russia and openly discussing attacks on our territory, is trying to impose a treaty on the limitation of strategic offensive weapons in which we have an obvious advantage.

Ukraine defence minister sacked: All about the corruption scandal

Kiev purge continues. Polish PM, West vs. Russia

Arestovich: “The war may not end the way the Ukrainians expect. Not the way the Ukrainians were told. As a result of the war, Ukraine may not return its territories.”

“What will happen to the society, 97% of whom are sure of victory, when it receives a conditional Minsk-3 and the loss of territories?”

“This recoil of unfulfilled expectations will hit us so hard – we’ll just be stunned.”

All Western Governments, News Media, and Think-Tanks agree: Major Russian Offensive Imminent

The head of the Lugansk OVA, Sergei Gaidai, announced the preparation of a full-scale offensive by the Russian Federation after February 15.

“We see that more and more reserves are being drawn up in our direction, we fix that more equipment is being brought in, which is partly hidden in forest plantations, partly buried, more fortifications are being built, from where they will try to make a full-scale offensive, and ammunition is brought up, which they do not spend as much as before – that is, these are not round-the-clock shelling of territories. We understand that they are starting to save money, again, preparing for a full-scale offensive,” he said on the BelSat TV channel.

Gaidai believes that the enemy will need “at least 10 days” to gather reserves.

“Training of the newly mobilized, two months, is already coming to an end. But it still takes 2 weeks to bring them from different bases in Russia and Belarus. After February 15, you can expect at any time,” he said

Earlier, the Financial Times newspaper wrote about the intention of the Russian Federation to attack in the next 10 days.

Russia may launch an offensive from three different directions – Donetsk, Luhansk, and Zaporozhye regions – Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate

“We have determined that Russian troops may launch offensives in Donetsk and Luhansk regions, as well as possibly in Zaporizhzhya. At the same time, in Kherson Region and Crimea, Russian troops will be on the defensive,” the State Intelligence Directorate has said.

PM Morawiecki: “The western territories of Ukraine will be safe if they temporarily come under the protectorate of the Polish state.”

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki urged Zielensky to “temporarily transfer” the territories of western Ukraine to Poland.
“I don’t think Putin would dare attack a country that is a current NATO member.” He is anything but suicidal. “The western territories of Ukraine will be safe if they temporarily come under the protectorate of the Polish state,” he said.

Head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov wondered what would happen if, after the successful end of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, the process of denazification and demilitarisation of Poland were to begin

“As part of its support for Ukraine, Warsaw has managed to deplete its own military resources, and now it is confused: what if, after the successful end of the SMO, Russia begins to denazify and demilitarise the next country? After all, after Ukraine, Poland is on the map! I do not hide it, I personally have such an intention and I have repeatedly stated that the fight against Satanism must continue throughout Europe and first and foremost in Poland. So it’s about time the Poles got their act together,” said Kadyrov.

Ukrainian troops in Vuhledar shot down a group of Polish mercenaries, Jan Gagin, adviser to the acting head of the DPR, told us.

“According to our information, on the night from Sunday to Monday, Ukrainian units shot a group of foreign servicemen in Vuhledar, presumably [they were] Poles. In recent weeks, confrontations between Ukrainian and Polish units have become more frequent. This is evidenced by intelligence data, including radio intercepts” , – he said.

Gagin added that some prisoners of war who were detained near Vuhledar in the past few days also speak of serious conflicts between Polish mercenaries and Ukrainian military personnel.

Russian units are advancing in Kharkiv region

 Yesterday, our troops managed to enter Sinkovka, and a curious incident occurred: powerful Lvovichi literally fled the village in civilian clothes. There are assault operations in the area of the village of Dvurechnoye (not to be confused with the settlement of Dvurechnaya) and Gryanikovka. A likely development of events in the near future will be the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops across the Oskol River.

February 6, 2023 Russian Armed Forces continue their offensive north of Kupyansk.

Southwest of Kremennaya, our troops are advancing towards the Seversk region, the enemy is suffering serious losses.

The offensive of the Wagner PMC is developing south of Artemovsk (Bakhmut). Our fighters are already fighting on the outskirts of the settlement. Red (Ivanovka). The taking of the Chasov Yar – Artemovsk road under fire control creates the conditions for the pointlessness of the resistance of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Artemovsk, but the enemy is putting up stubborn resistance in the city. There are heavy battles.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces are reinforcing defensive positions at the line of Konstantinovka-Chasov Yar, Slavyansk-Kramatorsk.

From Vuhledar, still occupied by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, information is received about the enemy mining the city and the transfer of reinforcements.

In the Belgorod region in the Valuysky urban district, our air defense shot down 2 enemy missiles.

In the LPR, as a result of the shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, N. p. Kremennaya injured 7 civilians

Having fired 126 units of various ammunition.

In the DPR, Donetsk, Gorlovka, Mineralnoe, Yasinovataya, Makeevka, Volnovakha were under enemy fire. Two civilians were killed. Five people were injured.

Confirming data are coming in about the use of poisonous substances by the Armed Forces of Ukraine for applying them to UAV-baits thrown by our troops. When picking them up, our fighters receive chemical burns.

Until further confirmation, treat this as a rumor:

Russian intelligence has recorded the unauthorized departure of soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from positions near Kremennaya, detachments are not coping with their flight, retired Lieutenant Colonel of the People’s Militia of the LPR Andrey Marochko told our agency.

Battle for Kupiansk: AFU panic, Kiev plans to surrender the town

In the chats of Ukrainian Nazis – family members of fighters who returned to Kupyansk after its occupation by the Ukrainian Armed Forces – a real panic has begun.
“AFU positions are equal to the ground along the entire front line”, “the city is planned to surrender”, there is no organized evacuation, and you have to pay at least 6 thousand hryvnias to leave by private car…

Note that in Kupiansk, where a month ago there were about 10 different AFU units, now there is only a “battered” 14th Brigade, soldiers of infantry battalions and TDF, who are heavily demoralized and flee their positions at the first appearance of Russian troops…

Bakhmut Being ENVELOPED From 3 Axes

[ Battle of Bakhmut ] Russia attack Bakhmut from 5 direction, including SW; cutting W of Ivanivske

In Artemovsk in the morning.
Our troops continued active assault operations in Krasnaya Gora and Paraskovievka. There is also an assault on the fortified areas of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the outskirts of Krasnoye.
In the city itself, our assault groups are trying to advance in the southeastern and northeastern regions of the city.
At the moment, there is no operational encirclement of the Artemovskaya group, and until the capture of Paraskovievka, you can not expect it yet (well, or ours will take Krasnoe and enter from the south). The Armed Forces of Ukraine have one safe supply route at their disposal. As long as it is not intercepted, the enemy will rest. As soon as this road is taken under fire control, the enemy will begin to withdraw troops to avoid encirclement.

After an overnight assault, the Russian Army (Wagner PMC units) made a substantial advance into Artyomovsk (Bakhmut) from the south, with some estimates moving the line of the front as far as 1km north, building on the earlier success around the Mariupolskoye cemetery.

“The Russians have occupied more than a third of Bakhmut” — a Ukrainian officer is quoted by the BBC.

A Ukrainian officer told the TV channel “Present Time” that the Russians have partially occupied the city: the industrial zone and the private sector along the river. They are managing to break through sections of the front and get closer to our positions. Now the city is constantly, systematically under mortar fire from the Russian forces,” said Denis Yaroslavsky, commander of one of the Ukrainian units.

According to Denis Yaroslavsky, the Russians have taken under fire the two main roads leading from the Ukrainian rear to Bakhmut, and are now finally cutting off the city’s supply routes.

According to the Ukrainian officer, Bakhmut is now being stormed not by Wagner PMC fighters, but by regular units.

“They talk in professional military language. This is really all the criteria and actions that confirm that this is the regular army of the Russian Federation. Yes, they are trained—that cannot be underestimated. Even if they are mobilized, they are partially diluted [with regular cadres]—they are more regulars than mobilized. But they are trained, they work with their eyes in the air just as we do. They work with drones, they systematically look over all the territory. They are trained. You have to admit that the enemy is learning, the enemy is complex. And there is no easy walk here,” concludes the Ukrainian officer.

From the enemy’s mouth a good assessment of our army is especially pleasant!

Artemovsk (06.02.23) – Wagner PMCs storm Ivanovskoye

And not only it. And in the area of Ivanovskoye, the Wagners were able to cut off the garrison from Kostyantynivka and Artemovsk and are now ironing its positions intensively.

To the north, the AFU defenses near Paraskoviyivka have also cracked and may well be squeezed through here as well by morning.

Everything suggests that if the Wagners have not yet gone for a decisive assault on the city (or to block it from the north and south), they will start it very shortly. In other words, the time is already running out for days, not weeks.

And the lack of AFU reserves is to blame. They are in short supply, and ours are pressing everywhere and at once. And that is why apart from Artemovsk we have successes today near Kremenna, near Marinka (probably tomorrow it will be already announced about its capture), and near Kupiansk.

And near Ugledar, the enemy reserves withdrawn from the north (that is, from where we have success) are waiting for our strike. And they will. But in due course.

Boris Rozhin on the Situation in the #Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut) Direction; pub. 6 Feb 2023, 18:23⚡️

🔹 1. Krasnyaya Gora has not yet been taken. There is progress both in the settlement itself and to the south of it. The situation for the remaining garrison is deteriorating.

🔹 2. There is also limited progress in #Paraskoviyevka. The enemy there is still resisting in an organised manner. We’re not dropping our bonnets prematurely.

🔹 3. There is also progress along the northern outskirts of #Artyomovsk. Here our troops seek to advance towards the last road to #Artyomovsk on one side and bring artillery under fire control. On the other hand, actions to the north and south of Krasnaya Gora demonstrate a desire to cut the supply lines of the enemy forces defending in Krasnaya Gora and #Paraskoviyevka, forming a kind of mini-cauldron in the style of Gorsky and Zolotoy, that could force the enemy to abandon positions in those settlements and retreat to Chasov Yar.

🔹 4. The fall of #Paraskoviyevka and Krasnaya Gora would make the enemy’s abandonment of #Artyomovsk inevitable, as the threat of operational encirclement would become a pressing factor.

🔹 5. It is also worth noting that the pressure of our troops towards Chasov Yar and #Krasnoye is intensifying. The road through #Krasnoye is inaccessible for use due to constant artillery fire.

Situation in the #Soledar Direction until the End of 6 Feb 2023⚡️

🔹#Bakhmut Sector North:

▪️ There is active fighting in the vicinity of Krasnaya Gora and #Paraskoviyevka. For the time being, the AFU are holding their positions in the villages despite the advance of Russian troops from two directions.

📌 However, given the pace of the offensive, as well as the partial withdrawal of the Ukrainian Air Assault Forces’ 46th Separate Airmobile Brigade from the villages, the liberation of the settlements in the absence of significant reinforcements from the AFU is only a matter of time.

🔹#Bakhmut:

▪️ On the northern outskirts, Wagner PMC assault troops, supported by artillery, have gained a foothold in Ushakov alley near Stupka. The Russian fighters are now advancing on the AFU stronghold in an attempt to cut off the garrison’s remaining supply routes.

▪️ In the northeast and east of #Bakhmut, the storming of Ukrainian positions near the meat processing plant on Selkorivska Street continues. Control has also been expanded on Chernyshevsky and Dobrolyubov streets in Zabakhmutovka.

▪️ In the southern outskirts, the “Wagnerians” are advancing in the Sobachevo district and pushing through the AFU defence near the #Bakhmut cemetery.

🔹#Bakhmut Sector Southwest:

▪️ The AFU has moved reinforcements to the #Krasnoye (#Ivanovskoye) area to hold the village and a section of the highway to Chasov Yar. According to some reports, paratroopers of the 80th Separate Air Assault Brigade from #Liman have arrived at the line Chasov Yar – #Krasnoye – #Bakhmut’s Northwest Outskirts.

▪️ It is critically important for the AFU to hold this area as long as possible until the second line of defence #Kramatorsk – #Slovyansk – #Konstantinovka – #Toretsk is fully prepared. The AFU’s 12th Army  Regiment is currently equipping fortifications in these towns.

📌 Until the new line is fully prepared, the Ukrainian command will hold the defences of #Bakhmut, Chasov Yar and #Seversk agglomeration, despite the heavy losses.

Wagner Chief Prigozhin’s press service reports that he flew to bomb the positions of the armed forces of Ukraine near Artemovsk as a navigator of a Su-24 bomber (operated by the Wagner PMC). 

Last night, Wagner Chief Yevgeny Prigozhin made a sortie as the navigator of the Su-24 of the Wagner PMC, he flew to bomb Ukrainian military positions in Bakhmut.
The head of the “Wagner” PMC, after returning to the base, challenged Ukrainian President Zelensky and offered to solve everything in the sky:

Vladimir Alexandrovich (Zelensky), we landed and bombed the AFU positions in Kabhuch. I’m boarding a MiG-29 tomorrow. If there is a desire, we will meet in the sky. If yours does, take Artemovsk  (if you win the air battle, you get Artemovsk.) If not, we go to the Dnieper.

Russia’s Yevgeny Prigozhin challenges Volodymyr Zelensky to aerial duel from cockpit

Prigozhin became the Main #SMO Media Actor of the #SMO among Top Rank Commanders⚡️

Either the others lack creativity or some reckless prowess, but the fact remains that he is no stranger to troll Zelensky on the fronts, to repell the morse code with artillery or get into a Su-24M for a bomb raid in #Bakhmut.

Hence the ostentatious return of bodies of his dead and the exchange of POWs, for which he spares neither money nor connections. All for the sake of PR and to demonstrate that he was able to do it and others could not.

Actually this is one of the main leitmotifs of his behaviour. To stand out and stand out again against the background of boring and grey committees.

Another matter is that this is an extremely advantageous time to gain political weight and get rid of his opponents, such as Beglov. Or to show that “just a businessman” (or whatever Peskov called him?) can afford more than a minister.

The position of the armed forces of Ukraine has seriously deteriorated in Ugledar; Ukrainian troops are mining high-rise buildings in case of retreat, the head of the DPR, Denis Pushilin, said.

Russian forces on Sunday occupied nine more structures in the Mariyanka direction, which the AFU soldiers used as fortified positions, said the acting head of the Donetsk People’s Republic, Denis Pushilin.

“As for the Marinka direction, fierce fighting continues there as well,” he said. “The enemy is still trying to hold positions; yesterday, another nine structures were liberated, where the enemy (AFU) equipped its positions there and held them quite seriously.”

Situation Report—February 6, 2023

Maryinka—Reports indicate that Maryinka has finally been taken, together with a large number of Ukrainian POWs. Absent an unexpected and substantial counterattack from the Ukrainian forces, and after final clean-up, we can expect complete liberation within the next two days at most, likely much earlier.

Krasnaya Gora has been liberated by the Russian Army (Wagner PMC units), with the area abutting Paraskoveevka expected to be cleaned up overnight.

Krasny (Ivanonskoye) settlement, south-west of Artyomovsk (Bakhmut), straddling the route from Artyomovsk to Chasov Yar, has been bypassed and taken into semi-encirclement. The last remaining solid supply highway to Artyomovsk is now physically cut, and the city is operationally enclosed. The path through Chromovoye is insufficient for the purpose of maintaining the defence of the city, though it may be sufficient for a retreat, under the artillery fire of the Russian army.

This in addition to the earlier liberation of Dvurechnoye and Gryanikovka, northeast of Kupyansk, and the advance of the Russian forces to Sin’kovka, on the Oskol direction.

The Ukrainian forces have been bled and depleted of reserves and resources. They are having a very hard time finding fresh troops to throw into battle, unable to counter Russian pressure on multiple directions. The liberation of Artyomovsk May now be a matter of a week. The Ukrainian defence will continue tearing where it is weakest, and the weak spots continue to multiply.

The goal is to maintain—and increase—this pressure until the material fatigue and breakdown starts becoming an avalanche, leading to the crumbling of the Ukrainian front lines in multiple areas at once.

One major push may transform everything at the front. I don’t believe in “15.02.23” (likely intentional misinformation) but I believe that a global offensive is coming very soon.
