The #Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) announced today that Chief of the General Staff Army General Valery #Gerasimov will take over as theater commander as part of a major reshuffle of the Russian command structure for the war in #Ukraine.

isw.pub/UkrWar011123
2/ #Gerasimov’s appointment is likely meant to support an intended decisive Russian military effort in 2023, likely in the form of resumed Russian offensive operations.
3/ Gerasimov's appointment over #Surovikin, a favorite of Russian milbloggers and #Wagner Group financier Yevgeny #Prigozhin, is also highly likely to have been in part a political decision to reassert the primacy of the Russian MoD in an internal Russian power struggle.

#BREAKING #GuerreEnUkraine D+322 (11/01) Front du #Donbass #Soledar

Je poursuis le questionnement :

La logistique ukrainienne a-t-elle joué un rôle dans la perte de contrôle ukrainienne (hypothèse de départ) au nord de #Bakhmut ?

3⃣1⃣

La fourniture d'équipements occidentaux variés a-t-elle abouti à une complexité logistique insurmontable ?

La campagne aérienne russe a-t-elle affaibli la logistique ferroviaire ukrainienne ?

3⃣2⃣

Je crois que c'est Pershing (à vérifier) qui disait "les batailles se gagnent avec l'infanterie et les guerres avec la logistique"

En disant cela, j'aborde des questions auxquelles je n'amène que des éléments de réflexion, sans conclusion (restons modeste !)

#Russian (rather chaotic) assessment of 🇷🇺 Air Defence.
Source: 🇷🇺. (my notes in brackets)
- 🇷🇺 AD can intercept 🇺🇦 SS-21 (but not Tu-141/143)
- 🇷🇺 decreased 🇺🇦 Air Force activity (but 🇷🇺 don’t fly into 🇺🇦 aware of HARMs, & FAB bombs are useless)
2/
- 🇺🇦 Bayraktar TB2 are out of game (reality: 🇷🇺 HVTs keep away from TB2s)
- SA-15 Tor adapted to 🇷🇺 Navy (makeshift projects)
- S-300 effective against 🇺🇦 ground targets (can employ salvo strikes saturating 🇺🇦 AD)
- BUK-M3 as counterbattery radar (zooparks are too "blind")
3/
- only Pantsir-SM-TBM with doubled (24) missile load are considered combatworthy. These TBMs have no guns, no radar, missiles only
- a significant number of 🇷🇺 combat fixed & rotor wing aircraft (Su-30/34/35 & Ka-52) during the 1st phase of war was hit by 🇷🇺 AD friendly fire.

In the wake of the Ukrainian victory in western #Kherson, and in the midst of Russia’s ongoing terror bombing campaign against Ukrainian civil infrastructure, we should look at the man in charge of Russia's campaign. A thread on General #Surovikin. 1/25 🧵
2/ CAVEAT: This thread is NOT about admiring an enemy military commander who has previously demonstrated brutality towards Syrian civilians, his own soldiers, and now against the Ukrainians. It is designed to provide insights into how to defeat him. rferl.org/a/russia-bruta…
3/ Much of the reporting about the Russians in #Ukraine focusses on ‘the Russians’ as some amorphous mass. The reality is, even in barely adequate military institutions, there is organization, control, and command from the top. Military commanders matter.

"La vita di Putin non è a rischio e su questo ho ben pochi dubbi. Le voci che girano sono esagerate, il suo potere è saldo ed i russi credono ancora in lui.
La ritirata da #Kherson è pura strategia del generale #Surovikin.
L’arrivo del freddissimo inverno avrebbe peggiorato la situazione in modo quasi catastrofico e tenere il fronte in quella zona avrebbe comportato spese enormi.
I nazionalisti che potrebbero succedere a Putin rappresenterebbero il peggio assoluto, questo potrebbe significare
davvero l’inizio di un conflitto mondiale. Il vero pericolo per Putin potrebbe coincidere con la ribellione degli #AltiGenerali che rispondono al suo comando.

Russian offensive operations in #Donetsk Oblast of #Ukraine will intensify in the coming weeks as additional mobilized servicemen arrive along with forces withdrawn from western #Kherson Oblast.🧵

isw.pub/UkrWar111322
2/ Ukrainian forces in the area will find themselves hard-pressed, and #Kyiv will very likely have to divert troops to defend against these renewed Russian offensives.
3/ The Russians are not likely to make operationally significant gains despite their renewed efforts, although they could conceivably take #Bakhmut over time at enormous cost.

#Putin likely elevated Russian Army General Sergey #Surovikin and let him withdraw from western #Kherson on condition that he take the rest of #Donetsk Oblast using Russian forces recouped from western Kherson as well as newly-arriving mobilized servicemen.🧵
2/ This observation offered by Andriy Zagorodnyuk, chairman of the Ukrainian Center of Defense Strategies, is the likeliest explanation for the resumption in the intensity of Russian offensive operations first around #Bakhmut and then to the southwest around the #Vuhledar area.
3/ Russia's recent offensive efforts in #Donetsk otherwise make little operational sense. They are far from operationally significant locations apart from #Bakhmut...

The battle of #Kherson is not over, but Russian forces have entered a new phase—prioritizing withdrawing their forces across the river in good order and delaying Ukrainian forces, rather than seeking to halt the Ukrainian counteroffensive entirely. /1 isw.pub/UkrWar110922
2/ The Ukrainian counteroffensive in the #Kherson direction since August—a coordinated interdiction campaign to force Russian forces to withdraw across the #Dnipro without necessitating major Ukrainian ground offensives—has likely succeeded.
3/ As @TheStudyofWar has observed over the previous months, Ukrainian forces engaged in a purposeful and well-executed campaign to target Russian concentration areas, military assets, and logistics nodes throughout #Kherson Oblast...

Segnale che le forze 🇷🇺 stanno ripiegando sulla prossima linea difensiva oppure, più improbabile ma pur sempre possibile, che si stiano preparando ad evacuare dalla regione. 2/2

1/25 Nach langen gut acht Monaten elenden Krieges und hoher Blutzollentrichtung, hat die Ukraine beachtliche Erfolge auf dem Schlachtfeld errungen und 50% einstmals okkupierter Gebiete befreit.
2/25 Dazu trugen auch die westlichen Waffenlieferungen maßgeblich bei. Mögen sie auch noch so langsam - und oftmals allem Anschein nach widerwillig, insbesondere aus Deutschland - in die Ukraine transferiert worden sein.
