Sitrep - 13/02/24 - US Senate passed the bill! πΊπΈπΊπ¦
An overview of the daily events in Russia's invasion of Ukraine. While Russian advances in Avdiivka continue, US Senate has set the example for the House and passed the bill that includes aid to Ukraine!
Near Moscow, a fire occured in/near a Gazpromnafta refinery. Until now, no further evidence of damage to the area has been provided other than this initial footage. Russian media say it had to do with scheduled maintenance.
Let's start with the general events. Ecuador will provide the US with an unknown amount of Mil Mi-17 helicopters, of which one is operational, in exchange for modern Helicopters. The soviet helicopters will be transferred to Ukraine.
Action came from the US Senate. With a big majority, US Senate passed the bill which includes $60 billion in aid to Ukraine. It is now up to the House of Representatives where it will face one man: Speaker Johnson.
Next stop is the US House of Representatives, where House Leader Johnson already said he is not going to put up the bill for a vote. Leading to Democratic counteractions. A discharge petition is being prepared.
Democrats House Leader Jeffries put out a clear statement that he expects Johnson to put it up for a vote, or they will use 'every legislative tool to get it over the finish line'.
I have big doubts about the credibility of the information in this article, but if true, it is good that the US didn't allow talks without Ukraine, as they have always said they wouldn't.
To the front line situation. For the latest state of affairs at the front, I advise you to consult my interactive map.

Bakhmut-Bohdanivka
β‘οΈIt goes back and forth in Bohdanivka. Now another penny has been exchanged northwest of the village where there is an important strategic position. Once again - according to latest reports - under Ukrainian control.
Bakhmut-Khromove
β‘οΈJust south of Bohdanivka, Russian forces have captured further areas to the east after gaining control of the cemetery near Khromove. Some of these areas have not been occupied recently (24-48h) but probably during the past week.
Avdiivka
β‘οΈBad news. According to DeepState, a reliable news outlet with connections within the AFU, the main supply route connecting the north and south of Avdiivka has fallen under Russian control.
β‘οΈReports that Russian troops have already entered the Coke Plant are untrue.
That was it. A new SitRep tomorrow.

US Senate has just resumed consideration of the aid package to Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan.
Senator Rand Paul is now speaking. He can speak for a full hour and will probably do so. Calling it a 'talking filibuster'. Rand is one of the most fierce opposers of aid to Ukraine. During the beginning of his speech he said that 'Democrats and Republicans together will fly to Kyiv and hand over the money, mabey even in cash'.
We continue with Republican Senator Lee, arguably the second most fierce opponent of aid to Ukraine. He will also spend an hour spouting demagogic MAGA rhetoric.
