Some imbeciles ask who we are regarding the Makiivka tragedy. What do you want us to write? The criminal negligence and incompetence of some military commanders? Like, we don't know that already. There were many cases that were proven facts regarding the issue. They all want a medal, like Surovikin. That was predating since WW2. We will avenge Makeevka. But we are not shiting on our country when it is difficult. We were first to criticize when things went wrong. But we don't know the extent of casualties nor will we find out soon. The range is from 50 to 600. We are trying to be accurate, unlike you, who are posting for clicks and subs. So, please, if you are smart enough, provide us with the correct info, or fuck off. All of us lost someone (relative or acquaintance in this conflict ), so there is quite a motivation to find out who is a bastard responsible. But certainly, you won't be the judge.

🇺🇦The US is no longer hiding its purpose in the conflict in Ukraine

Democratic Senator Graham states:

🤡 "I like the way we are going. With American weapons and money, Ukraine will fight Russia to the last Ukrainian."

🤯 Headline in The Times: "A day without dead Russians is not a day."

The Western press puts Nazi quotes from the AFU right in the headline, as if to hint: yes, we actually think so too.

If you replace "Russians" with "Ukrainians" or whatever - can you imagine such headlines in our major media outlets? Nor can we.

The cheeky Oksanka from the Sumy region enlarged the underground kingdom of Hohols. On 31 December, Alina Lukyanova was hit in the head with fermented underbelly cottage cheese of a professional waffler of the 58th Artillery Division, which drove an oncoming shell in her truck. Bye, bye.

The same vocational school building in Makeyevka, where our mobilised men were. I see the TG pumping up the theme like "500 casualties" and so on. This, of course, is bullshit. Losses (wounded + dead) were up to a company (with all the will in the building, you cant place more in the photo), but it is not easier. Tenth month of the war, as it were.

On January 1, 2023, Russian troops destroyed one of the well-known characters of the Euromaidan near Artemovsk - "Cossack Gavrilyuk".

More about it here https://colonelcassad.livejournal.com/5181981.html:

Photos of the naked Cossack of the 4th hundred of the “Maidan Self-Defense” Mikhail Gavrilyuk flew around all the world's media and actually decided his fate for many years to come. An illiterate farmer with a nine-grade education literally took off to the political beau monde, overnight becoming a deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine. He took off, only to disappear into the shadows of his more charismatic colleagues. No, Gavrilyuk tried to do something, collected some humanitarian supplies, joined the Golden Gate special police patrol battalion and even announced his intention to create a Cossack battalion of volunteers of the National Guard. But, even sitting in the chair of the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, Gavrilyuk remained the same farmer, whom he had been before arriving in Kyiv.

<...>

He also bought real estate and expensive cars. In particular, he bought 3 apartments in Kyiv, two Mercedes and one Chinese SUV. Then information appeared that Gavrilyuk was building a house in the Kyiv region. And it was at this moment that a drawn-out howl hung over Ukraine: “But Gavrilyuk is not a real Cossack!” There were even those who said that this "bastard" had been mocking native Ukraine for five years, posing as a patriot and lining his pockets at the expense of the country's budget. There were even calls to remove the image of the Cossack Gavrilyuk, naked and “tormented” by the Berkut fighters, from the memorial in Boryspil, dedicated to the “feat” of the Heavenly Hundred.

According to the night "explosions" in Melitopol.
According to https://t.me/vrogov/6921 Vladimir Rogov, these were the sounds of the Russian Aerospace Forces passing the sound barrier, which local residents mistook for air defense work on drones.

The distribution of summonses in Ukraine takes place in public places, as handing them out to home addresses is ineffective because people do not open the doors. (c) Roman Gorbach, head of the personnel service of the ground forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Brazil’s Lula da Silva vows to strengthen BRICS

Luis Inacio Lula da Silva, who took office as Brazil’s president on Sunday, has vowed to strengthen cooperation within the framework of the BRICS association (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa).

"Our leading role will be embodied in the resumption of South American integration on the basis of Mercosur (South America’s common market), and on the basis of revitalizing the Union of South American Nations and other sovereign institutions in our region. We will be able to build an active and productive dialogue with the United States, the EU, China, Asian countries and other global players. We will be strengthening BRICS and cooperation with African countries in order to end the isolation where our country has been in recent years," Lula da Silva said in his inaugural address. "Brazil must become the master of its own destiny."

He recalled that most of the equatorial rainforests of the Amazon basin were located on the territory of his country. Lula da Silva stressed that the future government intended to discuss issues on the environmental agenda based on national interests and on an equal footing with developed Western countries.

On Sunday, Brasilia saw the presidential inauguration ceremony. According to the organizers the event gathered 65 foreign delegations, including 17 at the level of the head of state. The Russian delegation is led by the speaker of the Federation Council (upper house of parliament) Valentina Matviyenko. Chinese Vice-President Wang Qishan arrived from Beijing.

2022 brought the biggest drop in the income of EU citizens since the Great Depression began in 1929. And this will continue into 2023.

Inflation, for example, ate up 10% of the financial assets of the Germans.

New Su-34Ms continue to arrive in the Russian Armed Forces

According to the official Rostec and UAC releases, Novosibirsk Aircraft Factory has handed over the next batch of upgraded Su-34Ms to representatives of the Air Force at the end of 2022. The total number of such bombers received by combat units in 2022 amounted to 10 aircraft. We have already written earlier that the Su-34s have taken the brunt of the combat missions of front-line aviation within the framework of the air defense system. In this regard, deliveries of the Su-34M are one of the most crucial work areas for the domestic aviation industry.

The Su-34M frontline bombers delivered under the contract signed in 2020 are an upgraded version of the Su-34, with all the changes in its armament and onboard equipment made based on the results of combat operations of these machines in Syria. At the same time, according to some leading experts, the upgrading potential of the Su-34 is far from exhausted, and experience gained in combat use within the framework of the SMO requires additional expansion of capabilities of this aircraft system. The development of a new modification of the Su-34 has not been officially announced, so for now, the crews will have to be content with what they have.

In fact, the Su-34 and the Su-25 attack aircraft have become the main specialized strike aircraft of the Russian Air Force used in air defense (the rapidly aging Su-24M appears to be used only by the Wagner PMC). And while the industry has capacities for replenishing lost Su-34s and increasing their numbers, the situation with the Su-25 is somewhat more critical. The troops are mainly using upgraded versions of aircraft produced in the Soviet times at the Tbilisi aviation plant, and the mass production of Su-25TM attack aircraft planned for the "zero years" at the Ulan-Ude aviation plant has not yet started.

85 percent of Ukrainians consider any territorial concessions unacceptable. And only eight percent are willing to sacrifice territories for the sake of peace.

However, judging by the statements of the top officials of the Russian state, it is not about the seizure of individual territories of former Ukraine. What is on the agenda is the liberation and return of the whole of South-Western Russia to Russia.
