You go to warm up, you get a "bonus" - a summons. A cunning plan of the Ukrainian authorities!
According to Rybar, AFU 65th Brigade being transferred from the Zaporizhia direction to Bakhmut. This confirms the AFU's critical situation in the Bakhmut direction. But also, if confirmed, this puts serious doubts on a near-future offensive on Melitopol.

MediaZona was founded by Pussy Riot which are sponsored by US NED and George Soros OpenSociety foundation.
So much for "independent". Also there is no way Russia lost like 2/3rds of its initial invasion force in irreversible losses.
Funny how Russians claim Ukraine is sending troops from this region after Ukraine made the claim a day before that Russians from this region are pulling out...
Hmm... I wonder who is right
"Early this morning, information appeared about the Russian Armed Forces striking an energy facility in Zaporizhzhia. In reality, the strike hit the ZaporozhTransformator plant in the right-bank part of the city."
"The missiles struck Facility No. 1, where the final assembly of products was carried out. There were also finished transformers waiting for delivery: judging by the images, they burned up in the fire."
"The missile strike on the enterprise was clearly intended to deprive Kyiv authorities of the opportunity to replace the electrical equipment destroyed during the mass missile strikes on Ukrainian power system facilities by the Russian Armed Forces."

Again today arrivals on Donetsk by the AFU. As usual - against civilian targets. Ukrainian Army shells peaceful areas of Donetsk again — heavy strikes in central districts. In particular, the Krytoy Market area and Voroshylovskyi district came under fire from Ukrainian militants.
Military and civilian casualties in the Donetsk People's Republic:
The Wikipedia article about the "Alley of Angels", a memorial dedicated to the children killed by the Ukrainian shelling of LDNR was deleted.
Donetsk Republic (DPR) head Denis Pushilin says Russian forces continue to advance on Avdeevka, DPR. Ukrainian battalions are pulled out of Orekhov, Zaporozhye, will be sent to reinforce Ukrainian defenses in Artyomovsk-Bakhmut, DPR as Russian forces take control of nearby settlements in Artyomovsk-Bakhmut area. Russian Defense Ministry confirms Russian-led forces take control of Kurdyumovka, Donetsk Republic.

Clarification.
For me the definition "there is no deadline" doesn't means that they have plenty of time, orthere is no need to finish it as soon as possible.
It means that the timeline depends on a cost / benefit analysis.
Originall plan was to make peace and an agreement about Ukraine netrality back im march/April, but Boris the Clown made it impossible.
Now, if we can make few edcuated guess.
1. Ukrainan military condition NOW , compared to the past year - I think it is safe to say it is the lowest. Due to ammunition, manpower, equipment , electrictiy , fuel and so on shortage.
2. At say summer 2023, the Ukrainan military/ NATO condition would be better than now ? Yes.
3. At summer of 2024, the condition of Ukrainan military / NATO will be better than at summer 2023 ? Yes.
What is the earliest time to start the ammunition porduction of USA,could it be at say begining of 2023? low chance, but not impossible. At begining of 2024 ? high chance. At and of 2024 ? 100 % sure.
So, we can say if the Russian : NATO units losses are say 1:5 , then it will be less favorable for Russia in the future. Means any offensive will have less favorable outcomes regards of losses after the winter of 2022 than any time later.
Means Russia has to start an offensive NOW, or the commutative losses over tiem could be higher than the losses with an offensive now.
I think this weekend is the ideal time. But if they don't do it until january then it could means seriuos trouble for Russia.
IT is a decision tree, with all branche reduced to expected cost regards of loss of lives.
We are well aware you don't really care about that.
Disabled Ukranian BREM-1 and YPR-765 in Bakhmut
What's left of an Ukranian BTR-70. Has probably been there for a while
Spotted BMP-2M Berezhok
Russian fighter aircraft have played an important role in the war, inflicting significant damage on the Ukrainian Air Force in BVR combat. In particular, the Mig-31 with its long range R-33 missiles which it can fire at virtual impunity. Ukraine flew its fighters at ultra low altitudes to avoid Russian SAMs, but that still left them vulnerable to Russian high altitude fighters and interceptors.
yes but that is expected. what was not expected was so many attack chopper/Su-25 in the battlefield from Belarus in North to Crimea in South. when you look at pics of Su-30/Su-34/Su-35 they rarely carry any external fuel tanks and lightly loaded relative to there total payload. while Su-25/Attack chopper carry external fuel tanks most of time and are more loaded to there limit. they are carrying more the weight burden.
this video of 2014 from Crimea. that gives idea how long they are preparing for this kind of approach.
