RT @bradyafr: Russia painted decoy aircraft at Primorsko-Akhtarsk air base, new satellite imagery shows.

This base is one of several used by Russian aircraft operating over Ukraine.

However, 4 films from🇷🇺247 Air Assault Regt in 2nd half of DEC show🇺🇦retook the whole trench in twt 558-60 as shown here + RuAF are likely back at their early OCT lines.

@iron_redux @John_A_Ridge: Exaggerating them would only signal that Ukraine has enough air defenses. Making them less then they are causes a more urgent need for air defenses to intercept those missiles like Patriots for Kinzhals and Iskanders now

The propaganda victory is less important than air defenses

RT @cossackgundi: For people to understand how significant a risk the President took here, this route into Avdiivka stands as the most dangerous entry point along the frontline at present. This area is well within the range of FPV drones, artillery, and mortars, as the Russians maintain fire superiority on the route into the city. Again, this is an example of a leader; it's rare to witness the upper echelons of the government placing themselves in such situations. Normally, they make visits well behind the frontline. Since this invasion began, Putin has not once visited the frontline. This fact tells me all I need to know about leaders https://twitter.com/ZelenskyyUa/status/1740764893454778485#m

RT @ChrisO_wiki: 1/ A Russian analysis of the Ukrainian attack on the large landing ship Novocherkassk on 26 December has listed 38 fatalities, 29 injured, and extensive damage to harbour installations and other on-shore properties, as well as the effective loss of the ship. ⬇️

@x26457474 @SciSpen @simpatico771: The first claim was correct about Kyiv, but the second claim that they don’t have the range is incorrect. They do have the range, they were just not fired at the city of Kyiv and have not faced a Patriot which is why they were not shot down yet.

I think people are exaggerating the role of short-term considerations (e.g. Novocherkassk) to explain this strike. Russia has been building up its missile stocks all summer, and it was widely expected they would target Ukraine's infrastructure this winter as they did last winter. https://twitter.com/RALee85/status/1740664226988122434#m

I think this is more of a continuation of its previous campaign rather than an aberration. The large number and types of missiles and drones launched + number of cities targeted is a method designed to counter Ukraine's improved air defenses compared to last winter.

@John_A_Ridge: Whose production estimates?

Rob Lee (Twitter)

@OAlexanderDK: It is often hard to assess the exact targets from open sources, particularly if missiles are shot down far from their targets.

Rob Lee (Twitter)

Another point: open sources do not show you everything. If your analysis is based purely on open sources—and you do not accurately acknowledge uncertainty— your analysis will generally be at least partially wrong.
