The awe felt by the leaders in the USA &#8211; NATO &#8211; Europe is also transferred to the reports of the Western press, which is dumbfounded following the stormy developments on the Ukrainian front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Russian Armed Forces have recaptured 50% of the territory in the Kursk region and are about to launch a major offensive in Zaporizhia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Kiev official says Russia&#8217;s next target could be a major attack on a major industrial center in southern Ukraine. Russia has already regained up to half of the territory previously seized by Ukraine in Kursk and is also advancing on some areas in Zaporizhia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Zaporizhia and Dnepropetrovsk regions are of strategic importance to Ukraine&#8217;s defense, far greater than Donbass, military analysts point out. At the same time, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stubbornly insists on sending a reserve to Kursk to keep some pieces as long as possible, since 2024 is shaping up to be a tragic year, both for him and for the Ukrainian armed forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Zelensky&#8217;s obsession with Kursk is murderous<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ukrainian losses in Kursk on a daily basis are unimaginable and Zelensky&#8217;s obsession to hold on to some territory in the Russian border region is proving murderous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the last 24 hours, the Ukrainians lost more than 280 military personnel and 13 armored vehicles, as announced on Wednesday (23\/10\/2024). During the day, Russian troops repelled two Ukrainian counterattacks in the direction of Plekhovo and Pokrovsky settlements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In total, during the hostilities, the losses of the enemy amounted to more than 25,943 soldiers, 175 tanks, 92 infantry fighting vehicles, 103 armored personnel carriers, 989 armored fighting vehicles, 681 vehicles, 224 guns and 38 missile launchers, including 9 US built HIMARS and 6 MLRS. Cumulatively the Ukrainians have lost 1,359 armored vehicles of all types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The logistics of the Ukrainians have been completely destroyed<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia is unaccountably destroying the logistics of the Ukrainian forces, military expert Vasily Dandykin points out. As military analyst Vasily Dandykin notes, Russia almost every day creates a &#8220;nightmare&#8221; for the long-range logistics of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The expert clarifies that this is particularly noticeable in Odessa and Nikolaev, where the Ukrainian army is losing missiles, drones, boats, ammunition and manpower in Black Sea ports. According to Dandykin, this affects Ukraine&#8217;s ability to resist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russian aircraft are as effective as possible, and NATO admits this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Military expert Oleg Glazunov said that the most vulnerable part in the defense of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is Donbass. According to him, after these lands, Kiev has no fortifications until the Dnieper. In this field of military operations, the Ukrainian armed forces have two last strongholds &#8211; the large cities of Kramatorsk and Slavyansk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The collective West is in awe of the highly successful tactics of the Russian army on the Ukrainian front, which translates into continuous territorial&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27650,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2362,7,3830],"tags":[58,1156,1976,3395],"class_list":["post-21145","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-military-science","category-research","category-war-in-ukraine","tag-russia","tag-ukraine","tag-war","tag-war-in-ukraine"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21145","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=21145"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21145\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27672,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21145\/revisions\/27672"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/27650"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=21145"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=21145"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=21145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
