Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on Modern Warfare continues with the aftermath of the first phase of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine in 2022 (youtu.be/yBZPE9o2gHU). This set up the second phase of the war battle of Donbas. We covered the events of April of 2022 (youtu.be/K2N_fHKrWIg) and the war of attrition in May (youtu.be/D93q4GMFT0) and continued with Russia's best month in June (youtu.be/SIm4mQihHdA). In the July 2022 video we talked about the arrival of the HIMARS systems which strengthened Ukrainian positions and changed the war (youtu.be/WS0D0X8V6rg), while this video will focus on the events of August, as we will see how Russian logistics and manpower problems were worsened by the HIMARS strikes, the risk around the Zaporizhia Nuclear Powerplant and the long expected beginning of the Ukrainian counteroffensive in Kherson (youtu.be/2hZoQ4xebGw). Previously we discussed the Kherson counteroffensive in the first 2 weeks of September and showed how the Ukrainian counteroffensive in Kharkiv Oblast BalakliyaIzium counteroffensive succeeded, pushing the Russians across Oskil and Lyman (youtu.be/gJRjKuss_Co) In the second half of September, Ukraine liberated even more territory in Kherson (youtu.be/S7usqwTty4), while this video will talk about the events of the beginning of October, including the attack on the Crimean Kerch bridge (youtu.be/i4gebic_Wnc). In the second half of October, positional and attritional warfare continued to dominate, still Ukraine managed to attack the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol and the Grain Deal was almost cancelled (youtu.be/wUAzOsvaX7k), while in the beginning of November, Ukraine finally liberated Kherson (youtu.be/sYr5mTNljN8). In the second half of November, winter took over, making the military operation more difficult (youtu.be/8r0JfS6WTWs), while in the first half of December, the stalemate continued (youtu.be/OOpew0MbJtg). In the second half of December and first half of January, Russia advanced around Bakhmut, taking Soledar (youtu.be/TmpWByOr6JQ), while in the second half of January, Russians regained initiative on the Kreminna axis and gained ground around Bakhmut, while the West announced that Ukraine will finally receive tanks alongside more armoured vehicles (youtu.be/eoIbUUPCkKg). Next we talked about the possible Russian attack vectors and deduced what is the Russian plan for winter 2023 is (youtu.be/oOGgRgWzElA). In the first half of February, Russia continued advancing around Bakhmut, but its Vuhledar attack ended in a disaster (youtu.be/uazg6oc1U4), while in the second half the battle of Bakhmut continued (youtu.be/T19EjO6JTZM). In the beginning of March, the battles for Bakhmut and Avdiivka continued (youtu.be/riQOPfoPwDs), and by the end of March, Russia occupied 0.01% of Ukraine (youtu.be/bRxjOJSv8Bg). In the first 2 weeks of April, Russian advance slowed down even more, while Ukraine was preparing for a counteroffensive (youtu.be/i_qpQI29Io), while in the second half of April, a stalemate resumed (youtu.be/W_D9XZV5Qls). In the first half of May, the battles around Bakhmut continued and the Wagner crisis began, as Prigozhin continued playing his own game (youtu.be/rXyonEl1uzQ), while in the second Bakhmut finally fell, while the Ukrainians started conducting raids to the Belgorod oblast (). In the beginning of June, Ukraine started its counteroffensive, while the Wagner crisis continued to be a problem.
