The Russians got beaten very quickly by Finland in a 1939. The result was Germany soon invaded the incompetently run Soviet Union. In 2023, Russians are again showing that they are incompetent, but because it will take years for Ukraine to beat sense into Russians, rather than only months for Finland to beat up Russians, NATO won't be invading Russia soon.

Russia's domestic production of artillery shells, supplemented by increased ammunition imports from North Korea, will likely allow Russian forces to sustain sufficient rates of artillery fire in Ukraine in 2024, albeit at a relatively lower level than during 2022. Estonian Defense Forces Intelligence Center Head Colonel Ants Kiviselg stated on October 20 that Russia still has around four million artillery shells remaining, which Russian forces can use for "low intensity" warfare for an additional year.[1] Kiviselg noted that there are reports that North Korea has shipped up to 1,000 containers of ammunition to Russia, each containing between 300-500 pieces of artillery ammunition.[2] Kiviselg estimated that North Korea may have therefore provided between 300,000-500,000 pieces of ammunition to Russia, which can last up to one month at the current daily rate of consumption of around 10,000 shells a day.[3] Ukrainian military analyst Colonel Petro Chernyk reported on October 23 that Russian forces are currently firing between 10,000-15,000 shells a day, significantly lower than rates of fire in summer 2022 of 45,000-80,000 shells per day.[4] However, Western sources and satellite imagery have confirmed that North Korean deliveries, likely mostly comprised of artillery shells, have drastically increased since Russian and North Korean authorities likely began more official military-technical cooperation in September, as ISW previously reported, and North Korea is likely to provide further deliveries.[5] Based on Western estimates of Russian artillery production capacity and continued North Korean artillery exports, Russia will likely be able to maintain generally sufficient rates of fire in the foreseeable future. While an overall decrease in Russian fire rates could impede the ability of Russian forces to conduct large scale offensive operations, Russian forces are unlikely to face widespread shortages which would chronically undermine defensive operations, and the drop in the rate of fire will not inherently provide Ukrainian forces an advantage. The degree to which Ukraine’s international partners sustain Ukraine’s ability to sustain an effective weight of fire relative to Russian forces will be a key determiner of respective capabilities in 2024.

The Russians are repeating their experience in WWII of fighting incompetently:

20,000,000 to 27,000,000 Russians died in WWII. For comparison
6,900,000 to 7,400,000 Germans died and
419,400 Americans died.

In WWII, the Russians didn't even know how many of them died plus/minus 3.5 million. They waste themselves and can't count, even in 2023.

Meanwhile, in REAL NEWS...

Russians captured the slag hill just outside of the Avdiivka coke plant, an important position bc it's THE vantage point over Avdiivka and surrounds. Russians also captured two rail lines leading into Avdiivka from the north. Apparently they switched tactics, from tanks and armored vehicles to drones.

Also, in addition to unleashing their new air-to-air missile (R37M) which has accounted for a dozen or so kills of Ukrainian military aircraft in the past week, Russia has also unleashed their third version of the Geran drone, with a range of 120 km and a 17 kg explosive charge.

Russian official accuses CIA, MI6 of involvement in Crimean bridge drone attack

Nate Ostiller, The Kyiv Independent news desk
Tue, October 24, 2023 at 7:38 AM CDT

A Russian official in occupied Crimea claimed that the CIA, MI6, and Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) collaborated to attack the Crimean bridge with naval drones, Russian state-run media Ria Novosti said on Oct. 24.

Vladimir Konstantinov, a Russian proxy official in Crimea, alleged that the July 2023 strike directly involved the U.K. and U.S. intelligence agencies, claiming that Ukraine could not have carried out the attack on its own. The SBU took credit for the attack in August, saying that 'Sea Baby' experimental marine drones had been used to damage the bridge.

Konstantinov cited the Oct. 23 article by the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), which detailed the SBU's high-profile assassinations of Russian targets, as evidence.

The WSJ article said that the attack on the Crimean bridge used "naval drones that were developed as part of a top secret operation involving the CIA and other Western intelligence services."

However, Konstantinov neglected to reference the earlier part of the paragraph, which says that U.S. officials were notified in advance of the attack, and raised concerns that it could cause an escalation. It does not say that either the CIA or MI6 were directly involved in either planning or carrying out the drone strike.

U.S. sources consulted for the WSJ article said that U.S. intelligence also had no involvement in the assassinations carried out by Ukrainian agencies and that their cooperation focused mainly on developing skills in gathering intelligence.

"We never involved our international partners in covert operations, especially behind the front lines," a former senior Ukrainian security official reportedly said.

Konstantinov disputed these aspects of the article, saying that it was just trying to hide that Ukraine only follows the orders of its Western allies.

The SBU declined to comment on the WSJ article, saying it "would be possible to discuss details regarding its special operations only after Ukraine's victory over Russia."

Why did 27 million Russians die in WWII? In 2023: “It was pure chaos, the amount of troops they were sending into the assault was pretty ridiculous. It doesn't seem like the Russians even knew what they were doing, it doesn't seem like it was planned out very well, at least the ground troops didn't have a clue.”

If Russia has tens of millions of retards to sacrifice to the war gods, as it had in WWII, victory is assured. But in 2023, if Russia does not have tens of millions of retards, victory is uncertain . . .
