The war in Ukraine is not only taking place at the front, but also far behind it. In this video we analyse the decisive battle for artillery, logistics and drones. Disclaimer: This research is based, among other things, on images of the war in Ukraine that appeared on social media. The images have been combined into an aggregate of data, spread across the various domains that appear in the video. We used the work of the Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) community to compile the data. In addition, we searched for images on social media ourselves and verified them by finding both the geolocation and the time of recording. Not everything that happens in the war in Ukraine appears on social media. There are various reasons for this. The dataset is therefore not a pure reflection of the situation at the front. We must therefore be careful about drawing comprehensive conclusions about the course of the war based on the available images. However, it does offer us insight into what happened at the front over the past three months. We collected images based on descriptions on Twitter, Telegram and Facebook. But also via OSINT maps such as those from GeoConfirmed, Rybar and DeepstateUA. For example, to compile the artillery losses we used the terms: MSTA-S, MSTA-B, D-30, 2S4 and other labels for Russian artillery guns. For attacks on logistics we used terms translated into Russian and Ukrainian such as: railways, storm shadow, HIMARS, truck, ammunition depots and other terms that in combination with image and description indicate an attack on Russian supply lines. With regard to attacks behind the lines on Russian logistics we had to take into account two considerations. First, our definition of logistics. We define logistics as all actions that have to do with the supply of soldiers and equipment at the front. The data we compiled consists of attacks on trucks, ammunition depots, warehouses and supply lines such as railways and bridges. But also attacks on headquarters, fuel depots and the actions of partisans. Second, the OSINT community does not use rigid labels for interpreting attacks on logistics. We compiled the data from open source maps such as GeoConfirmed using filters that are part of the maps, and then tested the descriptions of events against our definition of logistics. Sometimes it is obvious, such as a verified attack on the Crimean Bridge. Other times it is not necessarily clear. For example, it is sometimes unclear what a truck is carrying when it is attacked by the Ukrainians. We did include these types of examples in the dataset, by testing the situation against our definition of logistics. #ukraine #russia #war 00:00 Intro 00:46 A long-awaited offensive 03:31 The artillery war 09:00 Logistics 13:31 Drones in Russia More videos?
