Prospects for achieving peace in Ukraine are declining, the likelihood of further escalation is growing, said the UN Secretary General

Zin Note: Hmmm, curious... Who'd have thought waging an endless proxy war would be bad for peace?

Polish defense minister created scandal during a visit to Kiev

Poland has been angered by the fact that Polish Defence Minister Blaszczak laid a wreath at a memorial with a flag of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) on it.

The occasion was in Kiev, which he visited at the end of last week. Moreover, Blaszczak knelt while laying flowers.

Poles in social networks were outraged not only by this act but also by any lack of explanation for what had happened. After a while, the Polish military office found nothing better to do than to simply delete the photos from the state websites and social media profiles. The authority's Twitter post describing the ceremony with Blaszczak's participation also disappeared. After a while, the photos reappeared on the Internet, but they had already been edited and did not show any nationalist Ukrainian symbols. Already on Saturday, the Polish Defense Ministry began to claim that Blaszczak neither laid flowers nor kneeled down in front of the UPA flag, but simply that the graphics were placed on the adjoining part of the wall.

Situation Report—February 6, 2023

Maryinka—Reports indicate that Maryinka has finally been taken, together with a large number of Ukrainian POWs. Absent an unexpected and substantial counterattack from the Ukrainian forces, and after final clean-up, we can expect complete liberation within the next two days at most, likely much earlier.

Krasnaya Gora has been liberated by the Russian Army (Wagner PMC units), with the area abutting Paraskoveevka expected to be cleaned up overnight.

Krasny (Ivanonskoye) settlement, south-west of Artyomovsk (Bakhmut), straddling the route from Artyomovsk to Chasov Yar, has been bypassed and taken into semi-encirclement. The last remaining solid supply highway to Artyomovsk is now physically cut, and the city is operationally enclosed. The path through Chromovoye is insufficient for the purpose of maintaining the defence of the city, though it may be sufficient for a retreat, under the artillery fire of the Russian army.

This in addition to the earlier liberation of Dvurechnoye and Gryanikovka, northeast of Kupyansk, and the advance of the Russian forces to Sin’kovka, on the Oskol direction.

The Ukrainian forces have been bled and depleted of reserves and resources. They are having a very hard time finding fresh troops to throw into battle, unable to counter Russian pressure on multiple directions. The liberation of Artyomovsk May now be a matter of a week. The Ukrainian defence will continue tearing where it is weakest, and the weak spots continue to multiply.

The goal is to maintain—and increase—this pressure until the material fatigue and breakdown starts becoming an avalanche, leading to the crumbling of the Ukrainian front lines in multiple areas at once.

One major push may transform everything at the front. I don’t believe in “15.02.23” (likely intentional misinformation) but I believe that a global offensive is coming very soon.

APU lost 150 soldiers trained abroad in Zaporozhye: what is the reason

From January 25 to February 5, during several attempts to conduct reconnaissance in force in Zaporozhye, units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered heavy losses, the commanders and personnel of which were trained according to NATO standards in the UK in October and November 2022.

Regular Ukrainian servicemen were trained by instructors from the UK, Australia and New Zealand, but instead of a full (two-year) retraining course for regular military personnel, Ukrainian officers passed only the initial stage.

According to preliminary information, after passing a three-week course on interaction with units at the platoon-company level, the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were subsequently sent to the Zaporozhye sector of the front.

In the area of the settlement of Krasnoe in Zaporozhye, officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine received reinforcements from soldiers mobilized without combat experience and who survived the battles from the 102nd and 128th territorial defense brigades.

On the morning of January 26, units of the 102nd Territorial Defense Brigade received an order to conduct reconnaissance in force and open the positions of the RF Armed Forces in the area of the settlements of Krasnoe and Malinovka in Zaporozhye. During the combat exit, the group was detected by Orlan-10 and Orlan-30 drones and 35 minutes after the start of the movement, it was hit by 300-mm Tornado-S systems. Having lost about 80 people killed and wounded, the Ukrainian troops retreated to their original positions.

On the morning of February 3, under the cover of the 15th artillery and 3rd tank brigades, two battalions of the 128th territorial defense brigade tried to conduct reconnaissance in force on the border of the DPR and the Zaporozhye region, near the villages of Olgovskoye and Poltavka. However, from the air, a column of armored vehicles MaxxPro, Wolfhound and Kirpi of sandy yellow color was discovered by the pilots of the Su-25 duty link.

After the strike of the Su-25 attack aircraft, the losses of the 128th brigade amounted to more than 80 people killed and wounded. According to prisoners from Ukrainian units evacuated from the battlefield by special forces of the RF Armed Forces, after the first approach to a convoy of attack aircraft, commanders of platoons and companies of the Armed Forces of Ukraine who were trained in the UK left their wounded subordinates without communications, medicines and ammunition and fled in an unknown direction.
