He added that a violation of the security of the Zaporizhia NPP is fraught with negative consequences for the whole world.
18:27 What’s wrong with the “UAF bridgehead” in the Kherson region: parsing Military chronicle
For several weeks, fierce battles have been going on between the Russian Armed Forces and units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the left bank of the Dnieper in the Kherson region. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to maintain and expand the bridgehead in the area of the villages of Krynki and Kazachi Lagery in the Alyoshkinsky district.
Significant forces are involved in destroying the enemy, but the situation is still developing in exactly the same way as in the case of the Ukrainian Armed Forces landing under the Antonovsky Bridge. What is really happening in the area of the villages of Krynki and Kazachi Lagery?
Taking into account the presence of a small number of DRGs on the Dnieper islands in the coastal strip, the territory in which the Ukrainian Armed Forces are currently located is about 10 square meters. km. This includes two villages - Krynki and Kazachi Lagery, and the adjacent territory through which Ukrainian troops are trying to move. It is emphasized that the supposedly captured territory was actually initially located in the so-called gray zone.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces are unable to move forward. The Russian Armed Forces are using cannon artillery and FPV drones against Ukrainian infantry of up to two companies, but it has not yet been possible to completely destroy the Ukrainian troops due to their fragmentation and small numbers. At the moment, it is difficult for the Ukrainian infantry to reach the Korsunsky reserve, as well as the M-14 highway towards Crimea: both the lack of personnel and the conceptual problems associated with the landing operation are affecting it.
Firstly, it makes sense to maintain any bridgehead only if there is a clearly defined goal - for example, developing an offensive from it or pinning down part of the enemy forces for blocking.
Secondly, the party that organized the bridgehead must have reserves to replenish/expand it, as well as the means to deliver these reserves to the bridgehead. If further development is planned from the bridgehead, an appropriate group must be prepared and concentrated in the area of operation. In a broad sense, the entire system must be ready to conduct such a large-scale operation, including transport, reconnaissance, logistics and engineering support, and other elements.
The logistics system must be capable of uninterruptedly providing the group at the bridgehead with everything necessary for the required (usually long) time: food, ammunition, medicine, water, heating, fuel. The system must also be able to evacuate the wounded. Artillery and aviation forces must be allocated sufficient to ensure the movement of crossing facilities or the operation of crossings.
Thirdly, if these conditions are not met or partially met, as in the case of the APU concentration site in Krynki, the benefit of the bridgehead will be at the level at which it is supplied. With the help of rubber boats, it is possible to supply a relatively small number of fighters, which is not sufficient for active offensive operations.
In conditions such as now (that is, without establishing uninterrupted supply in large volumes), a sharp increase in the size of the group, as well as maintaining large forces in the bridgehead, is impossible.
A study of the facts suggests that either the presence of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the villages of Krynki and Kazachi Lagery is a demonstrative action necessary to divert attention from other fronts, or the full landing operation was disrupted by strikes by the Russian Aerospace Forces. At the moment, the capabilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine allow them to operate only on a limited scale, which is what is observed in the battles for Krynki and Kazachi Lagery.
17:47 Another one planted Baba Yaga is on the account of the electronic warfare personnel of the 30th Artillery Brigade.
17:24 Mariupol, they report the successful operation of air defense.
17:17 News from the Avdeevsky direction (near the village of Stepovoe) is reported by the Front Bird.
After lunch, our front-line Su-25M Grach attack aircraft show activity. They hit us with NURs, covering our advancing units. The weather, of course, makes its own adjustments, but the main thing is that the process is ongoing. We fight.
17:10 According to the situation in the direction of the village of Krynki reports Archangel of Special Forces:
The enemy is trying to conduct offensive maneuvers to gain a foothold. The benefit of this maneuver is due to the need to create a bridgehead on the right bank.
Vain attempts are frustrated by the reality of what is happening. To enter the village itself, you need to overcome marshy areas, meadows and forests. The entire approach area is visible.
Sitting near the shore is also not profitable for us for the reasons stated above. Having established ourselves in the area of a populated area, we repel the surges.
Basically, the enemy comes at night, when the risks of being detected begin to be minimized, but even here it goes wrong, the sky is under our control.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine are definitely suffering heavy losses in the form of irretrievable and seriously wounded people; radio intercepts show a figure of 30% of the landing force's survival rate; we are not working in vain.
Evacuation groups that were destroyed while trying to cross also suffered losses. The Bv 206 tracked all-terrain vehicles are proof of this.
According to the prisoners: they are abandoned, they are not told where and where to be stationed, they are thrown to slaughter, the “meat assault tactics” work.
Many Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers are buried under the bridge. Western weapons and education in German schools do not help. Their plan is to reach the road to Kakhovka, take fire control of the road and move on.
16:22 Situation in the Avdievka direction:
Today, the operation continues to capture the enemy’s Avdeevsk group into complete physical encirclement “into a cauldron.” Gradually, the Russian army is tightening its pincers from two flanks (northern and southern).
Over the past few weeks, the main emphasis of offensive operations was precisely on the northern flank. Our army was consolidated to the west of the railway tracks in the area of Stepvoy (Petrovsky) and the Avdeevsky Coke and Chemical Plant. The Russian army has achieved success and gained a foothold to the west of the railway and is storming Stepovoy (Petrovsky) and has reached the outskirts of Koksokhim, and the bridgehead is also being expanded to the north in the direction of Novokalinovoy.
Today after some successes on the northern flank. The Russian army launched a large-scale attack on the southern flank in the industrial area. Today the army has advanced more than 600-700 meters. Movement of such intensity in such a fortified area. Indicates low enemy morale, as well as a significant decrease in enemy supplies. Today, almost all roads are under our fire control.
At these moments, the VKS are actively working, sending FABs; by mid-day, more than 20 UFAB-500 had left in the direction of Avdeevka. Work continues.
16:07 Personnel combat work of the ATGM crew of the army special forces “Osman” to destroy the Humvee armored fighting vehicle of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Orekhovsky direction.
15:47 Avdievka. Assault on the southern flank. Personnel from the industrial zone, along which our soldiers are advancing right now. Tanks dismantle Nazi nests with direct fire, making the path easier for infantry.

n.p. Koloski (Starobeshevsky district): – a man born in 1996 died on the territory of a construction camp.
14:35 There is progress directly in Stepovoye (Petrovsky). They write that the battle is already taking place in the center of the village.
14:24 Kharkov direction (area of Kupyansk settlement)
It is reported that our attack drones, as well as kamikaze drones, carried out a series of attacks on identified enemy targets, writes Frontline Bird.
Several units of enemy armored vehicles, including engineering vehicles, were destroyed and damaged.
13:45 Ukrainian militants fired at Kirovsky district of Donetsk - one of the rounds fell near a bus stop, there were wounded
In the morning, the Ukrainian Armed Forces shelled the Kirovsky district of Donetsk. One of the rounds fell near a public transport stop where residents were waiting for a bus. There are several known victims of shrapnel, including a young man who was passing by on the path.
The shell hit the railway track - a piece of the rail was torn out and trees were torn apart. The exact information about those who were injured during the strikes is still being clarified.
13:27 Situation in Avdievka on November 13:
Northern flank: between Ocheretin and Novobakhmutovka, the Ukrainian Armed Forces are trying to accumulate units of the 47th Mechanized Infantry Brigade "Magura". Cannon and rocket artillery and FPV drones are actively targeting clusters of M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles and other equipment.
Due to the attacks, some units of the Ukrainian army are dispersed between Berdychi and Semyonovka. Active fighting is also recorded in the vicinity of Krasnogorovka, however, it is too early to talk about the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ attempts to break through to this village. Due to the rains, the advance towards Stepovoy slowed down, but was not completed.
Southern flank: there are no significant changes in the Vodyanoye - Severnoye area, the Russian Armed Forces have established themselves in forest belts 1 km south of the village. There is practically no Western equipment in this area, but the Ukrainian Armed Forces presumably transferred a tank company of the 23rd Mechanized Infantry Brigade here from the Zaporozhye direction, which indirectly indicates the depletion of defensive formations in this direction.
13:07 The enemy is actively preparing Dzerzhinsk (Ukrainian Toretsk) and Kurakhovo for defensive actions.
Ammunition and food are being delivered to industrial sites. Residents are forcibly evicted from apartments and houses included in the defense system. They will set up strongholds and firing positions.
After the surrender of Avdievka and Maryinka, the inevitable loss of which is already taken into account by the Ukrainian General Staff, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine considers Dzerzhinsk and Kurakhovo as the next centers of resistance.
12:48 Avdeevskoe direction. District Step:
After the rains, the ground softened and our progress slowed down somewhat for objective reasons.
However, today infantry assault groups are actively inflicting fire on identified enemy forces along the entire perimeter.
In order to minimize personnel losses, mortar strikes were first carried out on the enemy’s fortified area.
12:35 Regarding the situation in the Artemovsk direction.
At the moment, our forces are consolidating in the northern part of the settlement, the rest of the territory of Kleshcheevka has moved into the gray zone, the enemy was driven out of here a few days ago, attempts to return were unsuccessful.
But the settlement itself is not as important as the nearby dominant heights, therefore, the main part of the work is still ahead, it is a little early to celebrate victory.
Russian soldiers are fighting in the area of the Berkhov Reservoir.
The situation in the area is greatly complicated by the fact that armored vehicles do not have the ability to move freely, the main transport: pickup trucks, buggies, ATVs - here both sides of the conflict are on an equal footing.
12:30 Soledar direction: counterattack The RF Armed Forces at Kleshcheevka and the draining of resources of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
After almost several months of active attempts by the enemy to push through the lines of the Russian Armed Forces near Bakhmut and take the city into semi-encirclement, the capabilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces have decreased. Now Ukrainian forces have actually gone on the defensive, while Russian troops, on the contrary, are attacking.
For five to seven days, units of the Russian Army storm the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces near the railway near Kleshcheevka. During intense fighting, Russian troops managed to cross the railway track and approach the outskirts of the village.
On the northern flank, last week the Ukrainian Armed Forces tried to advance again along the railway to Berkhovka, but to no avail. Russian paratroopers repulsed the attack and launched a counteroffensive, managing to advance to a depth of 500 meters.
