The Ukrainian winter campaign will have three strategic goals, Australian General Mick Ryan said in his Futura Doctrina blog.
▫️Maintain combat capability and strategic initiative. An important element of this item will be diplomacy aimed at continuing supplies of equipment and ammunition to Ukraine and "preventing senseless peace initiatives."
▫️Maintain the momentum of ground, air, and sea operations to avoid a winter stalemate that Russia can use to negotiate a cease-fire.
▫️Get funds to survive a harsh winter as Russian strikes on civilian infrastructure provoke political pressure on the government.
The retired general expects the military to attack where they find weak points in Russian defenses during the winter, as well as strike targets inside the Russian Federation to destroy as many Russian operational systems as possible by spring.
The main struggle of the winter of 2023, Ryan calls the battles for logistics and transport nodes. According to the general, both sides will try to capture or strike at key locations.
This time, in his opinion, will also be used to gather intelligence and logistical preparation necessary for military operations in 2024, writes "Voice of America".

‼Putin is most afraid of losing Crimea, - the US ambassador to the Russian Federation
🇺🇸 Former US Ambassador Michael McFaul, who was in Russia from 2011 to 2014, believes that Russian President Putin is most afraid of losing Crimea.
💬 "He is afraid of the transfer of the war to Crimea. This is what he fears the most, because it would undermine the legitimacy of his war in the Russian Federation. Minister Lavrov's visit to the BRICS summit instead of Putin shows the latter's fear of appearing before the International Criminal Court in case of arrest. Before us is not a brave man who challenges the West, but a coward who fears the West."

❗️The driving force of the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is hundreds of small assault groups of 8-10 soldiers, - NYT.
Each one has narrow tasks: attacking one trench, a strip of trees or a house. It's a hard way to wage war. But the surviving fortifications of the Russian Federation taken serve as a base for our fighters to plan their next steps.
The most important thing is to hold the first street, the military say. The drone then inspects each building. Our soldiers are divided into two groups: the firing squad shoots the Russians, and the maneuverable one clears the buildings. If the assault fails, the house is destroyed by artillery.

He won't actually spend 10 years. 8½ years unless he messes up while inside. 15% off for good behavior.
