Military training has started in Zaporizhzhya Region for the first volunteers from Serbia in a volunteer battalion

"In Ukraine, too, our Slavic brothers, but unfortunately, they are occupied and are actually a weapon in the hands of the West against Russia. We will be here as long as it takes - until victory," the Serbian volunteer said.

For the Russian soldiers, their arrival was a significant boost to their spirits.

"The guys have arrived, and we can already see the team spirit. A couple of training and we'll be full-fledged combat units," said a Russian soldier.

🛢 Bloomberg: Russia's oil shipments by sea rise to a record high for the week

Russia's offshore oil exports rose to 3.8 million barrels per day, reaching the highest level in a week since April 2022.

Bloomberg writes that Russia overcame the "blow" of EU sanctions and the famous embargo. Moscow simply diverted the crude to friendly countries.

😄 At the same time, Europe was affected by the ban on Russian oil imports, to put it mildly, negatively.

Yevgeny Prigozhin comments on the rumors about the capture of Kleshcheevka by the Wagner PMCs

"Klescheevka has not been taken. Heavy battles are going on. Indeed, we have had some success. As I said before, the crowds of chatterboxes running ahead of the locomotive is very bad for the guys who are losing their lives. So at the moment, a large part of Kleshcheevka is under the enemy. When the units of the Wagner Cheka liberates it, I will inform you about this in detail.

Based on this comment and the scrappy tweets of the Czech mercenary, one can assume that some part of the village has been taken out from AFU, and heavy fighting is going on for the remaining territory under the control of the Ukrainian army.

Ukrainian president’s office relieves Arestovich of his duties as aide

Ukraine’s presidential office has accepted the resignation of top Zelensky aide Alexey Arestovich, spokesman for the Ukrainian leader, Sergey Nikiforov, told Ukrainskaya Pravda on Tuesday.

The newspaper quoted Nikiforov as saying that "Maria Vitushok, who heads the staff of the Ukrainian president’s office, has signed off on instructions to relieve Arestovich of his duties."

Earlier on Tuesday, Arestovich announced that he was stepping down. In a written notice of relinquishing his position, he said that he would like to set "an example of civilized behavior" as he admitted to having made "a fundamental error."

On the evening of January 14, Arestovich said that part of a residential building in Dnepropetrovsk had collapsed because a projectile shot down by Ukrainian air defenses fell on it. Following this, he was sharply criticized by Ukrainian society.

On Monday, Ukrainian legislator Alexey Goncharenko reported that a petition to fire Arestovich was launched. The lawmaker accused him of high treason for his remarks about the causes of the building partially collapsing in Dnepropetrovsk.
