| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Korrespondent] The situation at the front remains difficult and has a tendency to worsen, the commander-in-chief noted. The situation at the front tends to escalate. This was stated by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrsky following a conversation with the Commander of the US Armed Forces in Europe Christopher Cavoli on Saturday, November 9. "At the beginning of the conversation, I informed my American colleague about the situation on the front line. The situation remains difficult and has a tendency to escalate. The enemy, using its numerical advantage, continues to conduct offensive actions and concentrates its main efforts on the Pokrovsky and Kurakhovsky directions," the commander-in-chief wrote on Facebook. Syrsky noted that there is extensive information about the preparation of North Korean military personnel to participate in combat operations on the side of Russian troops. The Commander-in-Chief reported that during the conversation the American side confirmed strict compliance with the undertaken obligations to provide the Ukrainian Armed Forces with the declared range of weapons and military equipment. Let us recall that since the beginning of the day, 108 combat clashes have occurred on the front. The greatest activity of Russians is observed in the Pokrovsky and Kurakhovsky directions. Over the past 24 hours, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have eliminated 1,660 occupiers. Since the start of the full-scale war against Ukraine, the Russian army has lost 707,540 soldiers. |

| #2 ^ From Grom's link: Biden administration allows American technical teams to be in the war-torn country to maintain F-16 fighter jets and Patriot missiles Not a surprising development. Multiple commenters here have mentioned the logistics tail that accompanies modern wonder weapons. You need parts and maintenance techs to keep things running. Sending "advisors" is quicker than training the locals, but leads to headlines in the Daily Mail about "Russian Missiles Kill Americans" |
