⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Frontline #Summary for the Morning of 13 December 2023; pub. 08:01⚡️

🔹In the #Kherson-#Crimea Direction, the RF Armed Forces hit Ukrainian positions on the left bank of the #Dnieper River in #Krynki. It is worth saying that the fighting in this area has the character of a "seesaw". Periodically, the opposing sides are trying to seize the initiative. But they cannot make any significant progress.
💥 The AFU is under attack in #Veletinskoye, #Kherson, #Antonovka, #Pridneprovskoye, #Tokarevka, #Novotyaginka and #Tyaginka.
💥 The RF Armed Forces in Golaya Pristan, #Alyoshki, #Poyma and Cossack Camps. (Fig. 1)

🔹In the #Zaporozhye Direction, the RF Armed Forces attacked from the direction of #Novoprokopovka to #Rabotino and from the area of #Novofyodorovka.⚠️ The AFU held their positions.
📌 But it is evident that the Ukrainian forces have gone on the defensive. The RF Armed Forces are seeking to nullify the successes of the AFU in this area, achieved during their summer and autumn counteroffensive.
💥 Ukrainian positions in #Plavni, #Pyatikhatki, Malye Shcherbaki, #Novoandreyevka, #Orekhov and #Novodanilovka are under fire.
💥 Russian positions in #Zherebyanka, #Kopani, #Novoprokopovka, #Verbovoye and #Novofyodorovka. (Fig. 2)

🔹On the #Donetsk Front, after shelling, Russian forces continued their assaults near #Novomikhaylovka and in #Maryinka.⚠️ In the latter, the AFU is losing their last positions, but are not withdrawing. The RF Armed Forces, supported by long range weapons, attacked near #Nevelskoye and #Pervomayskoye. They also tried to advance towards #Tonenkoye and #Severnoye (a settlement west of Avdeyevka). The AFU fortification itself was attacked from the industrial zone from the southeast after artillery preparation, near the Coke Plant to the northeast. The RF Armed Forces, supported by artillery and aviation, continued their assault operations near #Stepovoye (not to be confused with the settlements of the same name in the #Zaporozhye and Ugledar directions).
▪️ The AFU attacked waste heaps northwest of #Gorlovka, trying to force some Russian troops to be transferred to this area. (Fig. 3)

❗️🇫🇷Politico: 'The end of governing': Macron faces France's ungovernability after shock immigration loss

President Emmanuel Macron stood like a dumbfounded man over the failure of a flagship immigration bill that shows how difficult it will now be to govern France without an absolute majority in the National Assembly.

On Monday, the National Assembly rejected his flagship immigration bill, which took the government by surprise. The defeat was made even more humiliating by the fact that lawmakers did not even debate the text but rejected it in a preliminary vote.

The shock shook the political establishment and raised questions about whether France had become ungovernable.
💬 "It could mean that we are approaching the end of his mandate faster than expected, that we are approaching the end of Emmanuel Macron's rule. He is running out of steam and it will be harder and harder for him to keep his MPs under control," said political analyst Chloe Morin.

💥🇺🇸 While Biden hands Zelensky another $200 million of U.S. taxpayers money, a new breakthrough is being cooked up at the U.S. border.

No wonder Republicans do not want to allocate any funds to Ukraine or Israel without taking care of the border at first. Put yourself in their shoes. All these illegals potentially will become US voters using legal or illegal means. And historically 70% of new immigrants vote Democrat. Cui bono? Who benefits from the invasion of illegal immigrants?

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Front #Summary for 13 Dec 2023 by 19:00⚡️

🔹In #Kherson Direction, our army has intensified its attempts to eliminate the AFU positions in #Krynki. Our military attacks from the west, south and east of the village. The AFU has slightly retreated from the eastern side deep into the village. More AFU boats were sunk on the #Dnieper, but one of the groups still managed to break through to the houses in the centre of the village. There are clashes on the islands in the #Dnieper floodplain.

🔹In #Zaporozhye direction, our forces continue to nullify the "successes" of the AFU counteroffensive. Based on reports from the field at a number of sites near #Rabotino, the AFU are again pushed back behind the first line of Russian defence. North of #Verbovoye, the AFU attacks are becoming less and less active.
Near #Novofyodorovka, our military are literally "gnawing" away at the enemy's positions under most difficult conditions. Mud, rain and snow, mines on the ground and artillery from above.

🔹In #SouthDonetsk Direction, a fierce assault on #Novomikhaylovka is underway. The defense of the AFU from the south is “cracking.” This, accordinf to iindfo drom the field.
▪️ From #Marinka, it can be stated that there are no AFU left within the town. The hardest months-long battles are ending under our tricolor. Now comes the cleanup. There is no place for the AFU to defend behind it. Our army goes towards #Ugledar and #Kurakhovo, which is a little more than 10 km away. South of #Maryinka, our military has recaptured another large fortified area and is attacking near #Pobeda village.

🔹In #Donetsk Direction, on the southern #Avdeyevka flank, our attempts to advance near #Tonenkoye and #Severnoye have not brought any clear success. The AFU are still holding the defence. Ours are also attacking the southern outskirts of #Avdeyevka from the industrial zone. Heavy battles are ongoing. On the northern flank, our Russian military are taking the same actions near Coke Plant and in #Stepovoye. The AFU actions northwest of #Gorlovka were unsuccessful.

🔹In #Bakhmut Direction, our forces have retaken the dachas, which were Positions of the Wagnerians in May. On the northern flank, ours are developing success at #Vesyoloye and west of #Bogdanovka. On the southern flank there are battles near the heights in #Kleshcheyevka.

🔹In #Svatovo Direction, positions in #Sinkovka are changing hands. The fighting is not abating. To the east of #Ivanovka, our military took up positions along the forest belt and advanced in the #Serebryanskoye forestry.

❗️🇺🇸🇺🇦 A bit of straight talk from the U.S. senators to whom Zelensky traveled to bow:

🖕 Senator Lindsey Graham, an unequivocal supporter of Ukraine: "He [Zelensky] will fight to the last man." Hello to anyone hoping the Ukromobilization nuts will loosen. True, Graham still prioritizes US domestic problems (perhaps he is aiming for some secretary of state positions in the near future).

🖕 Senator Tommy Tuberville: I never thought Ukraine could win a war. And the talk that Russia is supposedly going to attack countries in Europe.... I never believed in that scenario. It's just a good excuse to give Kiev more money.

💥🇺🇸A very meaningful (given the beginning of the US election campaign) trailer of the upcoming movie "Civil War" has been released.

According to the plot of the movie, in the United States CIVIL WAR began. And, in the very near future (judging by the frames).

It was filmed in 2022-23. The slogan of the movie: "All empires will fall".

It should be released in the middle of 2024.

Except I don't quite get it yet. Is the movie supposed to be released in the U.S. at that time, or ... on the streets of the United States? Just kidding. 😉

P.S. Maybe this movie is a warning, or maybe a prediction. Anyway, we'll see soon enough...

⚡️🇪🇺 Clare Daly, a Member of the European Parliament on the hypocritical position of the head of the EP:

For 10 minutes this morning at the European Parliament session in Strasbourg, Ursula von der Leyen eulogised the war in Ukraine.

But for all the crocodile tears she still can't mention the victims of genocide in Gaza. She's unelected & has no power to make foreign policy. It's past time for Member States to put her in her place.

❗️🇫🇷🇷🇺French Radio: Putin will win the election, we should prepare for negotiations.

During a French “Sud Radio” broadcast, the participants recalled the tales they used to tell their audience about President Putin: that Putin was dead, that Putin was very sick and he would die within two months... While Western propaganda was feeding people with tales about Ukraine defeating the "ill-equipped" Russian army and the Russian President Vladimir Putin's days being numbered, it turned out that the Russian government was only gaining strength. Eventually, the French have realized that Putin is still strong and he will win the election. They will have to negotiate with him.

❗️🇺🇸🇺🇦 In America, Zelensky was asked if he wanted to usurp power

Fox News host Bret Baier "interrogated" Zelensky over allegations that he is trying to "consolidate power" through arrests, canceling elections and increasing control over the media, Mediaite reports.

There are critics who say you are trying to consolidate power. There are headlines about an Orthodox leader placed under house arrest in Kiev, that you have consolidated Ukrainian TV channels, that you are ruling out elections next spring and calling for unity. And then the mayor of Kiev says that you are turning the country into an authoritarian state. How will you respond to this criticism? What do you say to the critics who say that? - Bayer asked.

To this, Zelensky advised his critics to think about the current conflict, not to travel around the world, but to go to the front instead.

Is his reply convincing? 🤔

Do you think Zelensky is
a dictator 🤬
or
fighter for freedom and democracy 👍?
