🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg a few hours ago: (1/7) "Since we have a lot to do in our company right now, I haven't had the time to be active with the updates. These updates are not my main job, although many people think so and let me know that. + 2:"I only spend about 25 minutes on my updates per day so they are far from professional.

Since things are not happening on so many fronts right now, I will stick to two places today. +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg here again: (1/12) "Reflections on the many so-called peace negotiation discussions going on behind the scenes.
China in particular is working behind the scenes to authorise at least a ceasefire. How should Ukraine react to this? + 2:"Who has the most to gain from a ceasefire? These are the questions we must ask. Ukraine has problems on the ground but is beginning to gain air supremacy. This is shown by the 6 russian bombers shot down. There is a reduction in missile carriers and glide bomb carriers. +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Yesterday Kenneth Gregg wrote: (1/10) "Avdiivka was vacated with heavy losses. Also a lot of our soldiers were captured and equipment was left behind. What surprises me is that we get training in Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands, the UK and the USA for our soldiers and + 2:"...non-commissioned officers, BUT where are our officers trained? The Finnish army teaches recruits how to retreat and WHEN to retreat in order to avoid unnecessary casualties and loss of material. I reacted strongly earlier when a Finnish officer claimed that our officers +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️ Kenneth Gregg today: (1/22) "Let's start with the only real hotspot, namely Avdiivka. We have good and bad news from this front.
In the media we have information that all our soldiers got out of there without major losses and that it was a well-organised retreat. + 2:"Unfortunately this is not consistent with the truth if we are to believe the soldiers who got out of there. And we are.
I reproduce what Viktor Bilyak had to say when he got out: «There were two attempts to leave, on the first night of February 14th the first ten left. +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Some news from Kenneth Gregg: (1/10) "The media are crying foul about the relationship between the President and General Zaluzhnyi. Their reports are in many ways very exaggerated and should be taken with a pinch of salt. Neither the President nor the General wants any + 2:"...internal strife during a burning defence war. You can say a lot about the President, but he would never compromise a continuous military command. Instead, it is more a game of Advisor Yermak trying to strengthen his own positions for the future. Since the media have no +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg today: (1/13) " The convoy chugs along slowly but surely. A stop was made in Kharkiv to hand over some stuff to Perre. This tough old man has been distributing food to people twice a week since the war broke out. Regardless of the weather or attacks, + 2:"...Perre does his work with great heart and courage.

When the convoy passed a block post long after the curfew, the guard soldier shook hands and said in broken English 'Thanks for helping our people'. This was a big contrast to the treatment at the Polish border. +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg / #UkraineWar wrote a few days ago on FB this: (1/11) "The frontline situation is unchanged, the russians are stuck and are being eliminated cell by cell. However, we have both worrying and positive news to report. + 2:"There is currently a flurry of activities in developing new and simple weapons on both sides. The russians have deployed a completely new type of drone, so we'll take this worrying news first. For the first time, the russians used the method called 'carpet bombing' from +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg on Jan 4th 2024: (1/13) "We continue to attack russian objects with both helicopters and drones, quite successfully. We also continue to grind down the russian infantry. The area north of Klishiivka is a textbook example of tactical manoeuvres. + 2:"We hit their troops hard on several vectors to force them into a corridor that looked easy to advance in. This corridor was a ridge/valley and the russians were allowed to advance to the root of the ridge (40 metres difference in height). We then started firing from the top +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg here with a fresh update: (1/12) "Today, Dec. 26th, we ask this question: is Ukraine gaining air supremacy in Kherson Oblast? It is no secret that there has been a lot of friction between General Zaluzhnyi and the presidential office, especially about the + 2:"...decision to start an offensive in Zaporizhzhia. Right now it seems that the Presidential Office has silenced and we have started a new tactical warfare signed by the General.
A few days before the Christmas holidays, we started a very successful new era of air supremacy. +

🇺🇦🇫🇮🧵🗣️A short one from Kenneth Gregg: (1/7) "Update 28.10.2023. The russian offensive in Avdiivka is broken. Very little is being reported from Avdiivka but from the soldiers I have spoken to the case is clear. The enemy attacks are now much more lame and those who have been + 2:"...captured all say that most of the soldiers are refusing to rush to certain death. Equipment and armoured vehicles are too few to be used for an effective assault, plus the equipment needs a lot of maintenance and that maintenance does not exist. +

🇺🇦🇫🇮🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg this morning with...: (1/19) "Good frontline news and hopeful anti-corruption measures.

At Andriivka we have taken control of the railway and are expanding further east. The russians have gone all in on this section but still they have to retreat. + 2:"Two km further east from the contact line they are now frantically trying to build fortifications for the winter (at Odradrivka). If we succeed with an attack manoeuvre up on the northern side of Bakhmut (at Yahidna), the russian troops inside the gravel pile Bakhmut will +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg: (1/16) "The reporting from the Verbove front is a bit confusing. There are reports of a major breakthrough or that we have been countered. The truth is that we made a major attack with armour which the russians beat back, but with heavy losses. + 2:"We also lost armoured vehicles. This was an attack on the absolute strongest line of defence the russians have in this area. Why they decided to attack here I don't know because we have had and are having success on the flanks. Anyway, the result is that the area is +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Today's Kenneth Gregg: (1/13) "Today we have good news from the war front and worrying news from the home front. Let's start with the worrying news.
If the President does not act quickly and get on the right track, we already have the seeds of a new Maidan. + 2:"What I'm talking about is the parliament's attempt to pass a law that would prevent our war veterans and other senior military personnel from acting as candidates in the parliamentary elections. In addition, the cowards have set up a commission whose goal is to bring +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg: (1/8) "Every little helps - this is how we can describe the situation at the Robotyne Front. Our guys are attacking with 6 vectors like a hedgehog. We advance a little each day and the most notable trend is that the russian troops are slowly withdrawing from+ 2:"...Novokropokivka to reinforce Verboe. The russians realise that if they lose Verboe, the road is practically clear for us towards Tokmak, Mariupol or Berdiansk. The battle of Robotyne was important for continued tactical operations while Verboe will be important for a faster+

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg: (1/8) "Are the russians trying one last desperate effort in the north and south?
In the north, they stormed and took our positions south of Vilshana. In addition, they are advancing towards Novojehorivka and have taken some ground. This is not a disaster + 2:"...because we have game of ping-pong game here. The offensive ability of the russians is VERY limited because they only have manpower and no heavy weapons. When the meat grinder has finished grinding in a few days they will have to return to the starting positions.

🇺🇦🧵🗣️A lengthy report from Kenneth Gregg, yesterday: (1/24) "There are about 2 months left of our summer offensive. Now that we are starting to see the results, we can say that the offensive so far is rated Satisfactory+. We won't be able to reach the Good rating due to + 2:"...many reasons. Let's clarify some concepts a bit more before we go to the active front updates.
1⃣We deviate a lot from NATO doctrine because we do not have air supremacy with aircraft. However, I now dare to say that we have air supremacy regarding precision with our +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gergg here again: (1/10) "A lot has happened that shows that the war is largely won [by us], if Western aid continues to flow in. We have shown that our own missiles, including Neptune, are well designed and effective. First we knocked out the missile cruiser + 2:"...Moskva at sea and now we knocked out an important radar installation (48Y6-K1 Podlet belonging to the S400 russian air defence system. This controls the entire western part of the Black Sea.) An armada of 6 other rockets knocked out the feeder, control units and launchers.+

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg speculates: (1/10) "Will we soon see major Ukrainian achievements in Kherson Oblast? Probably, because we now KNOW what the Russians have or do not have there. I have in my previous updates pointed out that the Russians are NOT bringing in much new + 2:"...blood to the fronts, but they move their troops around where they need reinforcements. Now it has clearly emerged that they have emptied Kherson Oblast of all heavy equipment and brought them to the Zaporizhzhia and Donbas front. Thanks to this and our special troops +

🇺🇦🧵🗣️A shorter one from Kenneth Gregg: (1/7) "During the night there were no Russian air attacks. We and our side have sent drones towards Moscow. They are now getting so many that the Russian leaders are annoyed. When you are irritated you make mistakes, + 2:"...especially when the action becomes emotional and not logical. This has apparently happened now, as the Russian leaders have ordered the last elite force in Donbas to fight in the Bakhmut area. I am talking about the Seras 247th Guards Air Assault Regiment that was in +

🇫🇮🇺🇦🧵🗣️Kenneth Gregg here again: (1/9) "We now have a total information blockade from the fronts. This means that we have bigger things happening. My daily report is thus basically a quote of what the General Staff has issued. The last update yesterday showed the situation for+ 2:"...30 June 2023 as we have a 72-hour delay in reporting.
The General Staff's daily report reads as follows:
¨Heavy fighting is currently taking place in all areas of the front. The enemy has operational things going on at Avdiivka and Svatove. +

🇺🇦🇫🇮🧵🗣️Evening update from Kenneth Gregg (1/10) "Svatove front: The Russians' attempt to improve their positions by attacking the forest area in Serebryansk ended badly for them.

Bakhmut: Heavy fighting west and north-west of Klishchiivka and the Russians are crowded about + 2:"...100 metres further east. At Orikhovo-Vasylivka we note a some more success for our people. The Russians have reinforced themselves with more cannon fodder placed on the front line. The better Russian soldiers are waiting in the defence lines built by Wagner. +
