20:30 Telegram channel «WarGonzo": We'll live until Monday. 99th week of SVO: main thing
Kherson-Crimean direction. There are virtually no changes on the LBS. In Krynki, the Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to hold a bridgehead. They attacked from the islands near Peschanovka, but did not succeed. It's more like a distraction. There is no talk of a serious attempt to occupy a new bridgehead on the left bank. However, the Ukrainian Armed Forces conducted reconnaissance in force.
Zaporozhye direction. There are swings everywhere. To the west of the village of Rabotino, the Russian Armed Forces are active. At Novoprokopovka and Verbovoy, the Ukrainian Armed Forces periodically tried to attack Russian positions. And from the Novofedorovka side, the RF Armed Forces were trying to advance.
Ugledar direction. The quietest one. If you do not take into account the active operation of long-range weapons. It flies in both directions. On the ground, the Russian Armed Forces attacked on the western approaches to Staromayorsky. They failed to break through the defensive positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Donetsk direction. On the southern flank, the Ukrainian Armed Forces stabilized the situation near Novomikhailovka, pushing back the Russian Armed Forces on the southern outskirts of the village. But they lost positions to the southwest. Russian troops are rushing to the operationally important Georgievka. There is a tactical advance. There is no need to talk about operational success.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces managed to build defensive lines on the way to Kurakhov. The Russian Armed Forces strained Ukrainian troops almost daily at Nevelskoye and Pervomaiskoye. On the southern flank of Avdievka, the intensity of the fighting decreased. There is pressure on the northern Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, but also not as active as before. However, the situation may change next week.
Bakhmut direction. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are on the defensive. To the south of the city, with difficulty, they still hold positions in Andreevka and Kleshcheevka. But to the north they are retreating to Chasov Yar in the Bogdanovka area. But we are also not talking about breaking through their line of defense.
Lugansk direction. Encounter battles continue in the Serebryansky forest area. The Russian Armed Forces had a tactical success near Ternov, which could develop into operational and even strategic success if they established control over the village. Most of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ logistics on the left bank of the Zherebets River goes through it. The Russian Armed Forces also became more active a little to the north - near Nevsky and Makeevka. For now it looks more like reconnaissance in force. At Sin'kovka, Russian troops are pressing. The APU bends, but does not break yet.

09:40 Sightseeing summary for the morning of January 14, 2024 from the Telegram channel “Two Majors”.
Over the past week, the Russian Armed Forces carried out massive strikes on enemy territory on January 8 and 13. The use of a wide range of weapons, including Daggers, shows the increased capabilities of the Russian military industry. Another aspect that drew attention during the strikes was the confusion in the enemy’s monitoring channels, which, under time pressure, draw information from the Armed Forces of Ukraine “Virage-Tablet” software about the air situation.
Apparently, the chaos in the enemy’s minds was caused by multiple false air targets, and the air defense systems of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, discharged by them and the Geraniums, could not cope with the flow of missiles.
Kyiv again used the facts of the strikes to beg for air defense systems, but Zelensky’s meetings with the leaders of the Baltic countries and the British prime minister were indicative against the backdrop of US statements that “the assistance has ended for now.” Providing the enemy with military-technical assistance is gradually being shifted onto the shoulders of the Europeans. The presence of many drones among the planned British assistance also attracted attention.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces are already skillfully replacing the decrease in the number of artillery ammunition with FPV drones and copter-bombers (“Baba Yaga”), and increasing their number from the enemy will cause even more problems for the Russian Army. You don’t have to look far for an example: only the lazy haven’t written about the problems in organizing electronic warfare in Krynki, Kherson region.
At the same time, while the Armed Forces of Ukraine are making weapons and equipment from scrap materials and sticks, factories for the production of artillery ammunition are being built in Germany. This is happening against the backdrop of large-scale protests by German proletarians, dissatisfied with the government's cuts in social spending to please the military. But there is no point in waiting for the overthrow of the dominance of pro-American military industrialists; the most likely outcome will be the brutal suppression of protesting workers and peasant farmers, whom the bureaucrats are already calling “Russian agents.”
The front line is generally unchanged. We are gradually beginning to notice such things as maneuvers on the front sector by our forces and means. For example, on the Zaporozhye front near Nesteryanka or south of Marinka near Novomikhailovka. The number of personnel of the Russian Armed Forces on the LBS in some areas makes it possible to operate in a similar way on a larger scale, but one-time breakthroughs should not be expected yet. The practice of steadily completing tasks exactly in the form in which they were conceived is indicative of Sink'ovka in the Kupyansky direction.
The weather had an impact on the activity of both sides last week. The channels in the Kherson direction are freezing, the operation of UAVs is difficult, and even in the absence of precipitation in the cold, the operation of batteries of all types of equipment has been reduced. Soldiers warm themselves with trench candles in positions where it is impossible to equip stoves.
Recruitment of personnel is underway on both sides of the front. In Ukraine there is mass violent mobilization, work on draconian laws on this topic, the flight of men through the border rivers and mountains to the West. In Russia, after the holidays, military registration and enlistment offices also returned to recruiting volunteers for contracts, and there is renewed debate online about the differences in one-time payments “from the regions” when concluding a contract. Many active servicemen of the Russian Army are interested in the African direction (we note right away that transfer from the Northwestern Military District zone there is impossible).
Thus, the front line is still without significant changes. The very fact of its stabilization and the retention of the strategic initiative of the Russian Armed Forces after many months of bloody defensive battles is important. Both sides are preparing to fight a long war.

Chronicle of a special military operation for January 13, 2024
After a short break, Russian troops again launched massive attacks on the western and central regions of the so-called. Ukraine, using, among other things, Kh-101 cruise missiles, Kinzhal ballistic missiles and Geran-2 drones.
According to footage published by the Ukrainian side, one of the ammunition fell in Shostka, Sumy region, in close proximity to the Impulse plant, which specializes in the production of ammunition and explosive devices. However, at the moment, no information confirming a hit on the object itself has been published.
In the Seversky direction, the “fog of war” has partially cleared. Apparently, after reaching the outskirts of the village of Spornoe, the assault detachments of the Russian Armed Forces were unable to build on their success and were forced to retreat to reserve positions. There are no Russian fighters on the outskirts of the village.
Meanwhile, in the Bakhmut direction, Russian troops managed to somewhat expand the zone of control. At Bogdanovka, assault troops advanced into the forest belt north-west of the village, and in the Kleshcheevka area, servicemen of the Russian Armed Forces managed to knock out the enemy from some of the heights.
In the Avdeevsky direction, Russian troops are still storming enemy defenses in the area of the treatment facilities: according to pro-Ukrainian channels, units of the Russian Armed Forces managed to advance in the area up to 250-300 meters. However, due to the lack of personnel, it is not possible to establish the exact configuration of the front.
