    Posted by sashimi on November 11, 2022, 9:48 pm

    Update on Russian military operations in and around Ukraine for November 11,
    2022.

    * Russia completes withdrawal from Kherson city to east bank of the Dnieper
    River;

    * Ukraine has lost its last major opportunity to corner and destroy/capture
    large numbers of Russian forces/equipment;

    * Russia continues stated process of de-militarizing Ukraine;

    * US aid to Ukraine becomes increasingly unrealistic - Hawk missiles designed in
    the 1960s and unused for 2 decades are being "refurbished" for a lack of
    better options;

    * "Avenger" systems to be sent in small numbers (4) which are essentially
    Stinger missiles attached to a Hummer - after training for Ukrainian operators
    is completed;

    * Dwindling amounts of basic ammunition continue to be sent to Ukraine,
    prolonging the conflict, but not in quantities to even allow Ukraine to hold
    what it has;

    * As Russian forces withdrew from Kherson city, they advanced elsewhere in
    southern and northern Donbass.
