(ჩემთვის) გასაკვირი:
1) კინჟალები საკმაოდ არაზუსტიაო
2) დღეში სადღაც 1კ სვეჟი ორკი აწერს ხელს კონტრაქტსო (რა ვი და 2022-ში რატომ არ გამოსდიოდათ?

Russian Objectives in 2024:
- One of the strategic goals of Russia is to capture the whole of Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts.
- The second goal (and we can already see this from the documents that we have at our disposal) is to retain the newly occupied territories: Kherson, Zaporizhzhia and part of the Kharkiv region.
- Another priority is to destroy Ukraine's air defense systems, aviation, and military-industrial complex facilities to prevent the increase in production and strengthening of the capabilities of AFU. These are the objectives that Russia sets itself for this year.
Russia-China-North Korea-Iran:
- Iran is developing military-technical cooperation with Russia because Tehran is interested in Russian weapons. Iran hopes to receive modern aviation from Russia, for example, Su-34, training aircraft, and radar stations. Negotiations continue.
- The most active supplies of ammunition from North Korea were carried out during September, October and November. The main ammunition supplied from the DPRK is 122 mm and 152 mm shells. According to our estimates, one million such artillery shells were delivered to Russia.
- HUR is collecting information on DPRK providing ballistic missiles to Russia.
- The problem is that – almost 80% of components, especially electronics – come through the territory of China. In most cases they are not even made in China, but in other countries.
On Russian Missile Attacks:
- Russia is focused on destroying Ukraine's military-industrial complex, headquarters, control systems and individual units that are located on the front line.
- The weapons particularly the Kinzhals are very inaccurate and do not achieve the goals that Russia pursues.
- Russian Military intelligence likely conducted an analysis of Ukraine's energy facilities in 2022-2023. The Russians have identified the most critical objects that can be hit by missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles.
- Russia continues to regularly take satellite imagery of Ukraine's energy system to carry out missile attacks, if possible and if they need it. Therefore, the threat to Ukraine's energy system remains.
On Russian Military-Industrial Complex:
- In the summer of 2022 Moscow adopted several laws and government decrees. The laws set defense-industrial enterprises into wartime production.
- The number of working days per week has increased. Some businesses even operate three shifts. This does not mean that everything is fine in Russia's defense industry.
- The main efforts are now focused on restoring equipment that was damaged or destroyed on the battlefield.
- Another issue is the restoration and preparation for combat use of weapons and military equipment that are removed from long-term storage warehouses, bringing them to normal condition and sending them for combat operations in Ukraine.
- The third task is the production of new weapons, primarily artillery systems, armored vehicles, armored personnel carriers, and infantry fighting vehicles. The fourth mission is the production of ammunition and missiles.
- Everything that is currently produced by Russia is immediately sent to the front and used against Ukraine. Therefore, we do not see Moscow significantly increasing the number of weapons and the volume of production of weapons and military equipment.
On Shahed Drones:
Russia produces around 330-350 Shahed drones per month. After the first contract with Iran, Russia started producing Shahed drones in Yelabuga. Most of the components come from other countries. Moscow's goal is to reach a closed cycle of production by 2026.
On mobilization:
- Putin will not announce mobilization before the elections. Around 1,000–1,100 people join the ranks of the Russian armed forces every day. Russians are motivated to join the army due to wages, especially in crisis regions.
