An update for October 26th. #ukrdailyupdate

If you would like to view the map: map.ukrdailyupdate.com
In the Kupyansk area, Ukraine is attacking Kuzemivka (1). However, to my knowledge, their attacks to date have failed.
However, Ukraine has “advanced to” Dzherelne (2). I am not entirely sure what this means. Maybe Ukraine is actively attacking, possibly the town is contested, or perhaps it is liberated. Regardless, Russia seems rather upset about Ukraine being near this town.
The Kreminna area needs to be clarified. Russia claims to attack to the west, and perhaps they are, but Ukraine also appears to be advancing east, especially in the direction of Chervonopopivka.
Russia is attacking all over the Bakhmut area without success.
North of Bakhmut, they are attacking Bilohorivka (3), Soledar (4), and Bakhmutske (5).
They are attacking Bakhmut itself (6,7).
South of Bakhmut, they are attacking Ivanhrad and Opytne (8), Andriivka (9), and Kurdyumivka (10).
Russia is actively attacking in several directions in the general Donetsk area.
East of Avdiivka, they are attacking Kamyanka (11).
Around Pisky, they are attacking Vodyane (12), Pervomaiske (13), and Nevelske (14). I do not have anything to say about these attacks today, but I hope to say more tomorrow.
To the west of Donetsk, Russia is attacking Krasnohorivka (15), Marinka (16), and Novomykhailivka (17).

Due to the terrain, Russia cannot launch a strong attack on Krasnohorivka until they capture Pervomaiske and Nevelske.
Marinka is practically impossible to attack at this point due to 8 years of heavy shelling.

They have had little to no success attacking Novomykhailivka over the past several months.
Earlier today, I made a thread about Russian soldiers seizing houses and school buildings around Zaporizhzhia and Luhansk.
Here is an example of what happens when you don't maintain your artillery barrel.
And here is a thread about the situation around Svatove.

Frankly I think the fastest way to end the war in Ukraine is not by sending tanks or by idiotic peace proposals. The fastest way is to set up factories across europe to produce 1000-2000 long range strike drones per day, and launch hundreds if not thousands of drones into Russia every single day until the country collapses. If they think sending 500 drones into Ukraine is a threat, see how they respond when 3000 drones fly into Russia.
With this many drones you can hammer every single factory, powerplant, substation, oil refinery, and mine in russia relentlessly.
Europe had a million drone program, to supply 1 million fpv drones. Fuck fpv drones. Have a 1 million drone program to supply 1 million strike drones. That's your million drones.

The "stupid westerners, sanctions do not work, we smuggle goods in illegally. muahaha, Russia unstoppable" people tickle me. Sanctions are not for stopping goods entirely, they are for increasing friction because the resources you spend smuggling are resources not spent growing
People fundamentally don't understand the purpose of a sanction. Sanctions are not to stop the war now, although they do damage Russia, the real goal of a sanction is long term economic damage to permanently shrink their economic growth on the timescale of decades.
The sanction is basically saying "okay, you're a threat to me today, and maybe I can't do much about it now, but I will shrink you and outgrow you so in 50-100 years you are no longer a threat to me at all". It is a long term play.

The Russians claim they shoot down Ukrainian aircraft the moment the missile leaves the tube, but we're supposed to believe they shot down two Black Hawks on Tuesday and only announced it after Ukraine leaked Black Hawk footage on Friday. These Black Hawks join the 650 F-16s and 450,000 M777s Russia has 'destroyed.'
GUYS. I AM GOING TO POST A VIDEO WHERE I WILL BLUR THE UNIT LOGOS TO SHIT SO NOBODY CAN TELL I STOLE THE VIDEOS FROM THE ARCHIVE AND THEN POST IT TO THE INTERNET SAYING I KILLED ALL THE SPECIAL FORCES

Guys I took my division and charged them into combat and while we lost 50% of our armored vehicles and 45% of our infantry are dead, and several of our HQs were destroyed and most of our best officers are dead, we captured a village where 200 once lived so we’re winning the war.
Tomorrow we will send our next division to assault the next village. That one had a population of 1200. Its actually considered a huge city, when you think about it. If we can capture that, we will send our third division to capture the hamlet behind it.
Every day we advance. That means we’re winning.

This is what Russia does. A country that only exports oil, gas, and war. This is the city of Marinka. Image

I wrote 2 years ago about why I was worried about Molniya drones. They are long range and capable of very large warheads. For whatever reason they were oddly scarce for a while, but they have become very common items on the battlefield and exactly everything I feared.
They can destroy a house in a single hit. Even small concrete buildings. They can dive straight down into dugouts, fly along trenches and fly into bunkers. They are being used to target infantry now, too. Russia clearly has a lot of them and are using them to destroy things that used to require helicopters.
They cost around $1000 each, roughly 2x a base level drone or roughly the same price as a higher end fpv drone. But they can carry a 6-7kg bomb and can fly over 40km.
