In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Our troops' successes in Russia. The Russians were deceived," the speakers discuss the operational situation along the front line in Ukraine for the past few days. The night was relatively calm, with no significant missile or rocket attacks on Ukrainian territory. However, there were 82 military engagements along the front line, with the enemy conducting two rocket and 19 aerial strikes, as well as 68 artillery barrages against Ukrainian positions and populated areas. The civilian population and infrastructure were adversely affected, with fatalities and injuries reported. The enemy's artillery shelling affected the border areas of Chernihiv, Sumy, Harkiv, Donetsk, Zaporizhia, Dnepropetrovsk, and Mykolaiv regions. The situation is more complex on the Northern and Slobozhansky directions due to enemy activity trying to infiltrate Ukrainian territory. Active fighting between both sides has resulted in armed clashes, with the enemy attempting to penetrate Ukrainian territory and Ukrainian forces trying to prevent it. Despite this, the enemy maintains the presence of their troops along the Ukrainian border and continues to fortify their lines of defense, with mining of border areas on their side. Ukraine responds in kind by strengthening its defensive position and engaging in counter-battery fire against enemy weapons. The Cuypinske direction, which is part of the front line, has seen a modest decline in enemy activity. Overall, the enemy continues to maintain its presence on the border, fortifying its positions, and conducting sporadic attacks against Ukrainian positions.

In this section of the video, titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Our troops' successes inRF; scammers fooled", the speaker discusses recent military actions in the regions of Terny, Teravorca, and Avdeevka. The enemy attempted multiple unsuccessful attacks on Ukrainian positions, with Ukrainian forces effectively counter-attacking and pushing the line of defense forward. The most challenging front was Avdeeves, where the enemy continued attempting to encircle Ukrainian forces but failed to make significant progress. The enemy's most active assaults were toward the northern outskirts of Avdeevka, including New Bahmutovka and Stepanovka, where six enemy attacks were repelled. On the southern side, near Peremaiski and Nevelski, ten enemy attacks were also successfully thwarted. Despite these successes, some significant events occurred in Avdeevka, especially regarding the positions of Tsar Skita, Zenit, and the Ninth Quarter, which require further explanation. This week's events in Avdeevka warrant clarification, particularly regarding the actions of the Cossacks and the incident involving the pipe. The Deep State team has prepared a detailed report on these developments, which they will present in chronological order. The hostements began around January 18, as the enemy took advantage of poor weather to launch intensive assaults on a bridge and its nearby positions, including a private housing area.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: our troops' successes in Russia, but deceived by the Russians," the speaker discusses how poor weather and visibility led Russian forces to unexpectedly attack in a private sector, where they found and gained access to a communications collector. The speaker expresses surprise that the Russians knew about the existence of this collector and had planned to exit the area there. The attack resulted in the encirclement and partial losses for the Ukrainian defending forces at the position "Царская охота." The situation remains complex for both sides in the private sector and near "Царская охота," with ongoing attempts to gain the initiative and control the area.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое успехи наших войск. В рф зеков обманули," the speaker discusses recent military developments near the towns of Avdeevka, Vernobove, and Terny. The enemy had set up defensive positions despite the absence of Ukrainian troops or enemy forces in the area. They waited until Saturday before beginning their retreat, which resulted in heavy losses for them as Ukrainian forces engaged with artillery and drone operators, ultimately defeating the enemy column. The enemy continued their attempts to damage Avdeevka using tactical methods like scorched earth and firing over 60 attacks on the Mariinka direction without success. The situation remained the same in other areas, with Ukrainian forces facing marginal attempts to attack their positions. However, they managed to recapture a significant enemy outpost near Verhovere and leveled the front line. The focus of operations for the Ukrainian forces remains securing their operational and strategic group's zone of responsibility, particularly in the Odessa and Hersonsk directions.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Our Troops' Successes in Russia; Deception," the speaker discusses the continued fighting on a Ukrainian stronghold, referred to as a placard, where six Russian attacks were attempted over the past day but all were repelled with significant losses for the Russians. The speaker emphasizes the stability of the situation, despite the challenges in organizing and conducting military operations. Russians have also begun to call this area the "Skim direction," recognizing its threat to their forces. A new type of grenade containing the banned substance chloracetophenone, a choking agent, was used by the Russians for the first time in December 2022, and the situation at the front is cause for concern as Ukraine documents the violation of international law by Russia. Additionally, Ukrainian forces reportedly inflicted losses on the enemy, including 990 personnel, 16 artillery systems, and eight tanks, within the past day. The military situation remains tense on all operational fronts and along the line of contact from Svatove to Oleshkiy. The speaker also briefly touches on the broader military-political situation in Ukraine and the surrounding region.
00:25:00
In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Our troops' successes in Russia are lies.," the speakers discuss recent developments in military support for Ukraine. The Italian parliament approved the continuation of military aid to Ukraine, and Italy has committed to providing Ukraine with air defense systems, self-propelled howitzers, and other military equipment. The European Union plans to release 5 billion euros from frozen Russian assets for Ukraine's aid and also intends to provide an additional 50 billion over the next four years. Hungary, initially opposed to this move, may now support it. Additionally, the US Senate Committee has approved a bill to confiscate frozen Russian assets, which could translate into $61 billion in funding for Ukraine, with portions potentially going towards the war effort and reparations. Germany's Minister of Defense has stated that the war in Ukraine has reached a standstill, and the process to seize and transfer these assets to Ukraine has begun.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Our troops' successes in Russia deceived.," Pan Pistorius discusses Ukraine's successful defense, particularly in the southern and eastern parts of the country. He emphasizes the concern of the West due to the immense and inhumane efforts Russia is making, especially in the eastern regions. Pistorius also hinted at the upcoming supply of weapons to Ukraine in 2024, which includes systems RIST and Leopard tanks, as well as artillery and various support vehicles from Germany. This equipment will be delivered throughout the year, with around 10,000 Ukrainian military personnel set to be trained on it. Hungary was previously an obstacle in Sweden's NATO membership, but it officially ratified Sweden's accession on the same day as Turkey. Despite Hungarian politicians' attempts to justify their opposition, the fact remains that Hungary was the last European country to approve Sweden's entry into NATO. Additionally, Hungary and other political issues led to a financial aid controversy for Ukraine.
00:35:00
In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Our military's successes in Russia deceives the scoundrels," Ukrainian officials express their displeasure towards NATO General Secretary Jens Stoltenberg and the Swedish government. They accuse Stoltenberg of pushing Hungary to ratify Sweden's entry into NATO instead of urging Sweden to expedite the ratification process. Despite the conflict's origins, the Hungarian government now demands apologies from Ukraine over the delay in ratification. Assistant Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman made a statement that Ukraine's offensive will take place in 2024, primarily around the Black Sea and Crimea. She mentioned the potential for US and European financial aid to strengthen Ukraine's military capabilities for a successful counteroffensive. A European Union summit on February 1 will contain a vote on providing 50 billion euros in aid to Ukraine. James O'Brien, Assistant Deputy Secretary of State for Europe and Eurasia, also shared that Ukraine's military strategy in 2023 is to defeat Russia. He noted that Ukraine's economy grew by a third in the previous year and expects similar growth in 2023, boosting their chances for a successful counteroffensive. The US believes that Ukraine will be stronger and in better position to define its future by the end of the year due to American support. However, the US Congress needs to pass legislation for financial aid to Ukraine (61 billion dollars), and the EU is also preparing to provide financial assistance to Ukraine. The New York Times reported that North Korea might attack South Korea soon, but this must be taken seriously, as Pyongyang increased its hostile rhetoric towards its southern neighbor. In contrast, Ukraine is competing to recover its lost territory from Russia, with Russia offering unofficial channels to discuss a settlement while also preparing for conflict, raising concerns about their military capabilities.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Successes of Our Troops. Deception in RF," The Economist reports that Russia is open to discussing security measures for Kyiv and ending the war, even if it means overlooking Ukraine's intention to join NATO and the EU. The Kremlin understands the potential economic crisis brewing in Russia and the risk of a financial and economic catastrophe if it strikes. As a result, the Kremlin is trying to assert control over territories they have seized, specifically 18% of Ukraine currently under their control. Despite claiming to be open to discussions, they are not prepared to discuss Ukraine's neutral status. Russian spokesperson Dmitry Peskov has hinted at the beginning of a diplomatic process but only on the condition that Russian forces withdraw from Ukrainian territory within the 1991 border. The European Union plans to provide Ukraine with 5 billion euros worth of military aid imminently, likely to fill the financial gap in Ukraine's ongoing war efforts. The United States has reportedly agreed to Europe's decision to continue supporting Ukraine.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Russia's conscripts deceived again," the speaker discusses recent developments regarding Ukraine and Russia's ongoing conflict. He notes that European countries have financed Ukraine's weapon purchases to ensure successful military actions against Russian aggression. The speaker then reveals surprising information about Russian conscripts, known as Storm Z, who were promised full rehabilitation, a clean slate, and monetary rewards after completing their contracts. However, the Ministry of Defense reportedly paid them only half the promised amount and classified their status as typical contractors. Additionally, the Russian State Duma has passed a bill toughening penalties for discrediting the army. The new law includes fines, imprisonment, and asset forfeiture. The speaker criticizes the Russian government for suppressing dissent and punishing individuals for expressing views that do not align with official narratives. He concludes by addressing viewers' questions and inviting them to subscribe to his channel. The speaker also indirectly comments on the ineffectiveness of the Ukrainian military's tactics, comparing it to the state of the Russian government.

In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое успехи наших войск. В рф зеков обманули," the speaker discusses the issues with commanders in Ukraine's military not reporting accurate information on the ground and their consequences. According to the speaker, the absence of reforms in the military structure and the lack of checks and balances lead commanders to take reckless actions, such as gathering their troops and charging at enemy positions without considering the loss of lives. The speaker expresses disappointment that such behavior is not punished effectively and calls it a criminal offense. Additionally, the speaker discusses the ineffectiveness of using shrapnel shells against drones, as the trajectory and timing must align perfectly for the shell to hit the drone. Instead, traditional hunting cartridges could be used to damages the drone's motor or fuel tank. However, the soldier operating the weapon needs advanced marksmanship skills to effectively hit the drone.
00:55:00
In this section of the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Our troops' successes in Russia; they were deceived," the speaker discusses the effective use of German Leopard tanks in the armed conflict. These tanks are equipped with a radar station that continuously measures the distance to the target and a shell that is programmed to explode upon reaching that distance. The shrapnel from the shell creates a cloud of shrapnel that can damage or destroy the target, even if there is no direct hit. The speaker also mentions the use of pump-action shotguns for anti-drone defense, as well as Russian preparations to take control of Zaporizhzhia in March 2023. However, the intensity of military actions has decreased, and it is unclear what will remain of the Russian forces on other fronts, as they continue to suffer losses. Putin has reportedly signaled a willingness to engage in peace talks with the United States, as they are unable to build up their forces on the Herson front for a possible offensive. The speaker emphasizes that there is currently no indication of increased armed groups forming in the Zaporizhzhia region for the anticipated March offensive. Instead, February, the shortest month of the year, remains a probable option for military action. The speaker also notes that Russian propaganda continues to emphasize their claim to the Zaporizhzhia and Herson regions, as stipulated in their constitution, in an effort to justify their military presence on those territories.
01:00:00 - 01:20:00
In the YouTube video titled "26.01 Терны, Авдеевка и Вербовое: Our Army's Successes in RF: Scam on Russians," the speaker discusses Russia's disinformation efforts about the war in Ukraine and their military activities. The speaker raises concerns about the lack of defensive measures against Russian missiles and the difficulty of locating mobile missile launchers. In another section of the video, the speaker touches on recent military developments, such as the use of drones to target Russian military storage facilities, the decrease in direct combat, and Putin's efforts to increase the production of strategic bombers. The speaker also reflects on the historical significance of the Soviet Union's occupation of the Baltic States and the current tensions. Throughout the video, there are reports of attacks on Russian bases and discussions about Russian deception tactics. Despite the challenges, the speaker remains optimistic about the potential for peace talks and invites viewers to subscribe to their channel for ongoing coverage of the military situation in Ukraine.
