The 669th day of the Russia-Ukraine war (December 24, 2023),The Ukrainian army concentrated its efforts on weakening the living forces of the Russian army, and the Russian army continued to repeat the offensive and suffered losses again.
The Russian army currently has 61 on the battlefield70,000 people, which seems to be quite a lot, gives the Russian army enough manpower to launch an offensive, but there are data that show thatThe outcome of the war has long been there.
"Every six months, Russia can recruit 130,000 people, but only 40,000 troops can be formed, and the remaining 90,000 can only be used as "biomass" and thrown away after one use. ”
"The Ukrainians are currently responsible for more than 50,000 deaths or serious injuries of the Russian army (every six months), and the current attrition rate (which is likely to be higher) is equivalent to about 37% of the new troops recruited every six months," Salm added. “
Salm stressedYou need to believe the statistics, the results of the war are just number symbols.
Russia will mobilize 500,000 people in 2023 and continue to maintain a strong manpower scale, which means that the Russian army has more troops to launch a human sea charge in **mut, Avdiivka, Kupyansk and other places, as for the losses, it is not important, the important thing is to consume the ammunition, supplies, and personnel of the Ukrainian army.
If Ukraine can't hold on, then Russia wins, and if Ukraine holds on, then Russia is more and more dangerous.
Let's take a look at the latest news on the battlefield, in the past 1 day, the open source data shows that the visual Russian-Ukrainian equipment loss ratio isThe Russian army not only has equipment, but also has more losses than the Ukrainian army in terms of personnel.
Avdiivka region,The Russian army continues to attack from the north and south, and continues to suffer heavy losses.
In the north, near Steppove, the Russian army could not cross the railway line and had to consider a breakthrough to the north of Krashorivka.
In the south, the Russian army continues to suffer losses in the industrial zone and in Vodane, unable to advance quickly.
3 months, 4 square kilometers of gains, more than 20,000 people, 200 tanks, 600 armored vehicles lost,This is nothing at all in the eyes of the Russian military's top brass, but this kind of repeated attrition day after day, the Russian army may be difficult to maintain for a long time.
Kherson region,After more than 2 months of repeated attacks, the Russian army still could not eliminate Klinki's Ukrainian army, driving it back to the right bank, but instead lost its own troops.
Statistics point out that the Russian army lost 65 combat vehicles around Klinki in more than 2 months, and Ukraine lost 0 ......, the Ukrainian Marine CorpsCombat effectiveness and morale, drones, artillery and equipment are significantly higher than those of the Russian army.
Natalia Humenyuk, spokeswoman for Ukraine's Southern Operational Command Center, confirmed that after three Su-34s were shot down by the Ukrainian army, the Russian army suspended the use of tactical aircraft and guided aerial bombs to attack Kherson.
The previous continuous attacks for more than 2 months could not drive the Ukrainian army back, and now the Ukrainian army is defending the entire Kherson with Patriots, and the F-16 will soon arrive, and the Russian army may be killed if it sends a plane up again.
The battle in Kherson should become more and more exciting with the arrival of F-16s and the mass production of a large number of UAVs by the Ukrainian army.
**Mutter region,The Russian army was repulsed from the area of the cemetery southeast of Bogdanovka and the area of the dairy farm west of Kromovo, the Russian army advanced 600 meters, and then was repulsed, so the back and forth see-saw really could not hold here.
The Russian army attacked the railway line northeast and north of Kryshchivka, but failed to make progress, and the Russian army increased the strength of **mut to 80,000 people, regardless of the cost, to make progress and stop the Ukrainian army from advancing here.
Zaporozhye region,Attempts by the Russian army to attack near Verbov failed, fighting took place in the Robtani, Verbowe, Novoprokopivka directions.
The Ukrainian army repelled the attacks of the Russian army on the above areas, and the battle line did not change much.
Kupyansk-Svato-Kreminna region,The Russian army, having suffered heavy losses, began to use the UR-77 minesweeper to open a safe route to attack northern Sinkiivka.
After the Russian army was largely wiped out by Ukrainian artillery, cluster munitions, armored vehicles, and mines, it tried to clear mines to open up a safe route and launch a larger offensive again.
In the Kreminna direction, Ukrainian troops made new advances north of Bilohorivka.
Marinka-Novamikharevka region,The Russian army failed to capture the last area on the western side of Maryinka, and the 79th Brigade of the Ukrainian army is not ambiguous.
The Russian army launched an attack on Novomykhailivka, south of Maryinka, in an attempt to close the gap with Maryinka here, but was repelled by the Ukrainian army.
On December 24, Ukraine released data on the losses of the Russian army, judging from the data, the intensity of the Russian army's offensive has decreased, and it is suspected that it is regrouping its forces and waiting for the opportunity to continue the offensive.
The Russian army has now succeeded in putting Ukraine in a defensive position with its manpower superiority, gaining the initiative, but the losses may be reached, this charge at any cost will greatly deplete the vitality of the Russian army.
Again, that's it** The equipment can be rebuilt without it, it takes 20 years for a person to grow, and it will be difficult to maintain the Russian army for a long time.
British Foreign Secretary David Cameron said the UK could provide more aid to Ukraine in 2024 than it did in 2022 and 2023.
The European Union's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, said that Russia would continue the war until it achieved what it believed was victorious, and called for more active support for Ukraine to fight Russia.
The Pentagon announced, and there is$1 billionIt can be helped, even if it is used up, it is okayAn additional $4.4 billionWhen it comes to aiding Ukraine, there are still many tools that Biden can use as long as he wants to.
The main aid to Ukraine is 61 billion US dollars from the United States, 50 billion euros from the European Union, plus independent aid from various countriesThe $150 billion commitment is still there, and the frozen Russian assets of 300 billion euros are also a big projectAs for how much is in place, we can only wait and see.
For Ukraine, money and assistance are not a problem, and even without it, Ukraine will fight.
1 Ukrainian soldier of the 10th Mountain Assault Brigade of the Ukrainian army independently confronted 6 Russian soldiers, and after a few minutes of fighting, the drone arrived to assist and assist the Ukrainian soldier in killing 6 Russian soldiers, without doubting the combat effectiveness and sacrifice of the Ukrainian army.
The Russian army has been mobilized in large numbers and is far inferior to the Ukrainian army in terms of trainingIt is not an exaggeration to say that 1 soldier needs to be replaced by 10 Russian soldiers for every 10 fallen soldiers.
On the Russian-Ukrainian front, a father and son simply rested during the battle, which is only a few hundred meters away from the front line of the Russian army, and more Ukrainians are still fighting.
Everyone has their own family, their own dreams, their own next generation, their future, and they are all confident in victoryThis is one of the reasons why Ukraine will not fail.
Despite the twists and turns of the path to freedom, there is a conviction that victory belongs to Ukraine.
2024 belongs to Ukraine!
