Zelenskyy Announces 10 New Brigades! (Is it enough?)

Russia is pushing hard into the town of chavar are they succeeding but does Ukraine have their own surprise planned for Russia to the tune of 10 new brigades I’m Paul US Army Combat veteran let’s talk about it okay so this is sort of the latest Frontline updates that we’ve seen and over the last week Russia has uh really quintupled down on their efforts to advance in and around detet but particularly Russia’s made a number of advances in the area of chavar now you guys might recall chavar was a logistics and um Reserve Hub during the Battle of Bachman right as Russian forces advance to the outskirts um of Bachman and then Advance through the center chivar remained kind of a a stronghold for Ukrainian forces and it makes sense that they would use it for that because it is tactically a very difficult uh town to take you can see it has a lot of forested areas a lot of water obstacles and uh is stationed or situated in some pretty undulating terrain so in some ways it’s very difficult to dislodge Ukrainian troops um but we’re going to work back in time here and you can kind of see the overall shifts in the front line uh you could see that while Russia has been advancing very very slowly in the area they still have been making advances you can see taking it all the way back to the start of the month here we are about a month ago and you can see that Russian forces have been steadily creeping into position particularly along the northern and southern flanks of chavar right you can see here near kalanka uh Ukraine Russian forces beginning to advance but now over the last several days you’ve seen really some significant um advances by Russian troops particularly in this uh are these districts in kind of the outskirts on the eastern half of the town and one of the things we know is that Russia is very good at getting warming their way into an urban area or a forested area and once they’re in they’re very hard to dislodge and they’re very hard to stop from making incremental advances Russia’s just willing to assume a lot of casualties to make minimal advances because once they do generally the ukrainians aren’t willing to expend the military manpower to conduct a substantive Counterattack and so Russian forces will advance hold a position and then 24 to 48 hours later begin to advance once more and that’s what we’re seeing particularly here in chavar there’s also been uh comparable advances if you look to the South um Russia’s been following a much a very similar AC in this town of shumi you also have seen them interestingly pushing into this yurka uh you could see over the last uh maybe 36 uh or sorry the last week or so Russian forces is making what looks like kind of a a breakthrough type Salient here um again towards this town of New York not that New York a different New York but you can see Russian forces also advancing near shumi uh so this is all a sign I think while none of these are in of themselves really like exceptional noteworthy or or or troubling gains kind of in the aggregate you could see that this Russian strategy of just peac meal advances anywhere they can get away with it is a core part of Putin’s strategy for winning and once he sort of abandoned his idea of stunning breakthroughs or massive assaults and replaced it with simply a desire to lose troops but slice off little pieces of territory here and there grabbing what he can it actually Aggregates into an effective strategy for seizing terrain but Ukraine has their own surprise for but before we talk about that you guys know that I don’t get that many sponsors on the channel I I’m routinely demonetized YouTube really is cracking down on uh combat creators creators that talk about this war and it’s understandable it’s an election year and YouTube has their own bias um but if you want to support what I do and I depend on you guys to to do it the fans so if you want to support what I do and you want access to the uncensored combat videos twice a week I find the the combat videos coming to us from the front line oftentimes Drone footage or GoPro footage and we do a deep dive analysis about what it is where it’s taking place and what it means for the Tactical situation it’s the only place we can do this and I do it on my own site com vet news.com the link is in the description become a member so you can get

member support what I do um if you appreciate the content it means a ton plus again if you want to see those viral combat footage and get the Deep dive analysis that’s the only place you can do it so the link is in the description combat news.com okay so Ukraine isn’t taking this line down certainly and this is part of the Ukrainian strategy right Ukraine has a two-fold strategy to kind of build itself back up one is addressing its Manpower challenges and increasing its conscription right it’s it’s imple imped a number of changes to its conscription law lowering the age improving Ukraine’s ability to track military age males Who U might be eligible for conscription and they are also forming them into several new brigades but these uh the holdup is not going to be Manpower it seems like it might actually be Western weapons right uh this Western Security assistance is moving to the Ukrainian Battlefield um but the scale and speed the ukrainians continue to say they they would like to see more of it and certainly it the first place ammunition has to go isn’t going to be to new brigades it’s to existing brigades currently in the fight right and according to an interview with Bloomberg Linsky said Ukrainian forces are way better in terms of Manpower than they were a few months ago and now that they have at least the promise of additional aid from the US they are really looking positive into the future um but Ukraine’s ability to conduct a counter offensive depends on heavy equipment like mechanized fighting Vehicles apcs tanks and heavy artillery this is uh referencing these 10 new Ukrainian brigades you might remember the counter offensive was 11 uh brigades but NATO trained to a NATO standard now the hope is that these 10 brigades combined with a really more effective tactical uh worldview a more a more defined tactics in terms of progress is going to be able to contribute much more right a lot of those 11 counteroffensive brigades frankly were wasted um using ineffective NATO tactics that produced a pretty high level of casualties and again just sort of exposed the fact that that NATO tactics really only work with air superiority and without that they become very very difficult um right as uh some commanders even in svar uh said that the forces in the area are more in need of ammunition than Manpower and that mil and zalinsky himself said that some of this equipment is taking too long to arrive at the front now that’s not entirely on the west right because the West can only get it to Lviv beyond that it falls on the ukrainians and that is a military task and some and a task that Russia is committed to interdicting Russia wants to watch wants to and is hitting Ukrainian ammunition Depots uh convoys and Transit they’re doing everything they can to disrupt this equipment getting to the front um and of course it’s hard because when you have this uh these supplies kind of being slow walked they end up going to where they’re needed most which is in units actively equipped actively in the fight but that also needs to at some point go to these Reserve brigades right who need to be stood up and to do that they have to have training ammunition they also have the ammunition so that if they get thrown in the fight they could fight and this is a huge problem again because many of the Ukrainian brigades um H that are currently fighting are exhausted and this sort of um as they point out this monthlong delay exasperated it and and it think of this think of logistics any Logistics chain really as being a little bit like traffic uh if you’re driving on a highway right you’re driving along suddenly a car in front of you goes oh is that a deer and they stop short the car behind them stops short again the car behind them stops short and suddenly you’ve created a traffic jam despite the fact that maybe that car that stopped it wasn’t a deer it was a trash bag they stopped for a moment and kept driving there’s no real obstacle it’s simply a um a wave effect caused by that initial disruption well this is what you’re seeing on kind of the logistics side where you get this whiplashing effect where these long delays and then sudden push of of PA in creates an additional like Gap right the the logistics system works best when there’s a steady consistent flow that’s been built up over time and this will happen just like you know traffic jams don’t last forever but they last a lot longer than the initial issue and this initial issue right was basically from February to nearly April uh so you know this is a real um this is going to take a long time to smooth out right and of course as you guys know Putin’s counting on this right this is his big offensive um that the ukrainians are fighting now he know Putin knows that by the time 10 new brigades are stood up that the the logistics uh Aid gets smoothed out it’s going to be a very very different War for him and it’s going to be much more difficult to make these kind of advances so he’s trying to really get in while the getting’s good anyway guys that is all I had for you a huge thank you to the colonel tier members Ardell Klein n no spam Dennis 1 uh GES Maring Nathan Kirk waganer uh Terra zimic mil miles Tom tomaron and Raul Vega to name a few and a huge thank you to all the colonel tier members guys I appreciate you so much and
