Ramzan Kadyrov on Kherson

I totally agree with Mr Prigozhin's view on Surovikin's decision. Evgeny Viktorovich noted very precisely that Surovikin saved a thousand soldiers who were in a de facto encirclement. Having weighed up all the pros and cons, General Surovikin has made a difficult but correct choice between senseless sacrifice for the sake of loud statements and saving the priceless lives of soldiers.

Kherson is a very difficult area lacking the possibility of a steady regular ammunition supply and the formation of a strong reliable rear. Why was this not done from the first days of the special operation? That is another question. But in this difficult situation the general acts wisely and farsightedly - he has evacuated the civilian population and given the order to regroup.

So there is no need to talk about "surrendering" Kherson. "Surrendering" implies the surrendering of the fighters. On the contrary, Surovikin spares his soldiers and occupies a more advantageous strategic position – comfortable and safe.

Everyone knew that Kherson was a difficult battlefield from the very first days of the special operation. Soldiers of my units also reported that it was very difficult to fight in this area. Yes, it can be held, some ammunition can be brought in, but at the cost of numerous human lives. Such a prospect is unacceptable for us.

That is why I think that Surovikin acted as a true combat general, one who is not afraid of criticism. He is responsible for people. He knows best.

Thank you, Sergey Vladimirovich, for taking care of the guys! We'll fulfill the order of the Commander-in-Chief. We will not stop fighting the enemy and we will not get tired!

Opinion on Kherson.

Anyone who has spent the last month on the Kherson or Zaporozhye front has seen and understood everything.

Do not give in to panic. Over the last month the local population has been evacuated to the left bank of the river and defence preparations have been made.

The objective of the front line in Kherson was to hold back the advance of the AFU until the maximum number of civilians had been evacuated from the right bank. The front has coped with this task perfectly well. Now there is an organised and well-prepared manoeuvre to redeploy troops to pre-prepared (!) defensive lines. The overall coordination and the level of understanding amongst the troops is encouraging.

For the past month, anyone driving along the Melitopol-Kherson highway could observe caravans with concrete "dragon's teeth" and stationary bunkers being dug in on the left bank. In the Zaporozhye region, too, a defence in depth has been established - everyone understands perfectly well that having fortified the Dnieper, the AFU will attempt a breakthrough right here in Zaporozhye, near Energodar.

As soldiers, we trust our command and we are ready to carry out any task.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russian Forces Complete Withdrawal From Kherson City - Reports

If so, this eliminates the only possible opportunity Ukraine had to corner, kill or capture large numbers of Russian troops and their equipment.

The fighting will continue as a process of thinning and stretching out Ukraine's forces wherever they are pushing and eliminating them wherever they are vulnerable.

In the meantime, Ukraine's power grid continues being dismantled while Washington attempts to sign contracts to get missiles and tanks inactive for decades "refurbished" to send Ukraine.

Don't look at lines on maps. Look at the vector sum of losses on both sides and their ability to replace them. It's a war of attrition aimed at destroying Ukraine's military (demilitarization), not a war for territory (taking and holding cities at all costs).

⚡️The AFU command prepared "false-flag" attacks on Kursk, Bryansk, and Belgorod regions.

❗️Exclusive❗️

@anna_news сorrespondents have spokeт to Pavel Kochuba, a Ukrainian platoon commander of the 53rd Independent Mechanized Brigade, who fell into the hands of the Wagners.

🔹The AFU command was preparing saboteurs to strike civilian infrastructure and attack Kursk, Bryansk and Belgorod regions.

These operations were to be carried out under a "false flag" - using Russian army identification signs, the Ukrainian said.

🔹Kobucha said that he was transferred to the area of Zaitsevo settlement. He stayed there for two months. All this time their positions were under constant shelling, and they themselves suffered heavy losses.

"Of the last - on November 3: three were severely injured, two more escaped. We were at Opytnoye at that time. After the shelling, the Russian military approached, many of our people also escaped. We hid, but they found us and forced us to surrender."

🔹 He tells the reporters that the morale of the Ukrainian military was very low and few wanted to sit under fire: experienced fighters were tired, and the newly arrived reservists did not want to sacrifice themselves, seeing the constant clashes with the Russian Armed Forces.

The prisoner's story is in our report.

🇺 U.S. fears of European countries' rejection of sanctions against Russia: Politico

There is growing concern in the U.S. government over the possible refusal of its European allies to support sanctions pressure on Russia, Politico writes.

Unnamed U.S. officials who work in Europe have recently been increasingly warning their counterparts in the United States that "some countries whose populations support Russia are increasingly angry about sanctions and accuse the United States of increasing spending," the newspaper notes.

According to Politico's sources, because of the public outcry, European leaders may refuse to support anti-Russian sanctions. Politico says that any weakening of sanctions would give the Kremlin more leverage.

According to Politico's sources, the growing concerns prompted a "barrage of calls" to the US presidential administration to discuss ways to keep European countries committed to Washington's sanctions strategy. Nevertheless, a senior U.S. official called the situation "shaky, but stable for now."

🇪🇺 In early October, the EU approved the eighth package of sanctions, one of the main measures of which was a cap on the price of oil. The price ceiling for crude oil will come into force on December 5, 2022, and for petroleum products - on February 5, 2023. The European Commission then noted that the measure was developed in "close coordination" with the G7, which includes the United States.

Also within the frames of the package, the EU strengthened restrictions on import and export: EU countries are prohibited to import finished and semi-finished products made of steel, machines and equipment, plastics, vehicles, textiles, footwear etc. from Russia. In addition, the EU has restricted exports of European goods to Russia, including electronic chips.

Sweden will not deploy nuclear weapons

This statement was made by the country's Foreign Minister, Tobias Billström. In the politician's opinion, Sweden should follow the path of Denmark and Norway, which have legally renounced the deployment of nuclear weapons.

"In the long term, Sweden's political line is still moderate," Billström said.

‼️ In Al-Qatif city in Saudi-Arabia thousands of people took to the streets shouting "Death to the House of Saud!"

Protests against the ruling dynasty started in the Kingdom after Saudi authorities again announced a mass execution of several dozen citizens.

😏 As soon as the Saudis rejected supporting the US, a reason for mass protests was suddenly found. Is it a coincidence? Certainly it is not. Now the hegemon tries to organize a coup there.

Zelensky has denied press access to Kherson

President Zelensky during his video statement attributed the ban on press access to Kherson to mine clearance.

!! The pretext of mine clearing operations is being used to process the civilian populaton in a search for Russian collaborators, resulting in mass detention of citizens for retaliation.

It was also reported that officers from the 72nd Information Psyops command of the AFU arrived in Kherson. Accordingly we expect that "irrefutable evidence of Russian atrocities" will appear in the information field.

Ukraine exchanges 1,570 Starlink systems from Poland for the graves of UPA victims

An interesting exchange is described in two adjacent articles in the Polish Rzeczpospolita.

🇺🇦 On 11 November, Ukrainian Minister for Digital Transformation Mikhail Fedorov announced that Poland handed over 1,570 Starlink systems to Ukraine.

According to the minister, this is an important delivery, given the electricity shortages amid the systemic dismantling of Ukraine's infrastructure by the Russian Armed Forces. In total, Ukraine currently has some 20,000 Starlink terminals, of which more than 5,000 were provided by Warsaw.

🇺🇦 Simultaneous with the transfer of new systems, Kiev announced that it was allowing Poland to search for and exhume the graves of Poles who fell as victims of UPA (banned in Russia) terrorists near Ternopil during WWII.

This is the first approval of its kind. The Kiev regime under all presidents has categorically denied allowing such scientific expeditions. The search could begin as early as 2022.

Once again: Warsaw has received the right to rebury Poles, brutally murdered by the founding fathers of the Ukrainian Nazis, in exchange for providing a batch of Starlink systems to the descendants of those Nazis. Who are now enjoying Poland's full support and whose ideology Kiev fully shares.

What can be more absurd and more humiliating for the Polish people?

🇩🇪 Propaganda scents against opposition

"RUSSIA'S GERMAN propaganda warriors".
ZDF documentary from 9.11.2022 by Reiner Fromm.

With the help of Steven Broschart, alleged internet profiler and data analyst, Dr. Susanne Spahn, political scientist, who appears here as a Russia expert and Danilo Hoepfner, Memorial e.V., ZDF tries in its usual manner to label all conspicuous citizens of Germany as Kremlin propagandists who appear as opposition to the mainstream agenda and monotonous contributions - whether bloggers, journalists or even members of the Bundestag.

All these examples (except one) have one thing in common - they all (except one) have a migration background because of so-called Spätaussiedler (late repatriates) or parents of Russian origin.

💥 ZDF is thus embarking on a very daring and dangerous path, which could lead to accusations of incitement of the people and discrimination against minorities (Russian Germans).

Is this the way it is meant to be?

The Russian military left a message for Ukrainians in Kherson Region:

"Dear Ukrainians, please behave.
Don't forget that you are on the territory of the Russian Empire.
We went on holidays, will be back soon.

1. Don't chew the furniture

2. Don't shit on the floor

3. Don't harass passers-by

4. Don't bark during night hours

5. Close the door firmly to avoid blizzard.

6. We strongly recommend that by the time we come back the place is clean and you've hung portraits of our Tsar V.V. Putin in every room.

PS Every morning you must kiss the Russian flag and sing the Russian hymn.

We'll check on this when we return.

With love,
Russian Tank Special Forces"
