US directly responsible for civilian deaths in Novoaidar - First Deputy Permanent Representative of Russia to the UN Dmitry Polyansky

Dmitry Polyansky, Russia's first deputy permanent representative to the UN, wrote on his personal social media page that Washington is directly responsible for the civilian deaths in Novoaidar caused by rocket fire - the AFU is coordinating targets with Washington.

"Another Ukrainian monstrous military betrayal.14 civilians were killed in hospital by missiles supplied by the US. And as we know from Ukrainian officials, the HIMARS targets are agreed upon with Washington. So that makes the US a direct co-conspirator. US taxpayers should know how their money is being used," Dmytro Polyansky wrote.

‼️Ukraine cannot shoot down Russian ballistic missiles - Air Force

The AFU has no means to destroy ballistic missiles in the air, but it needs fighters and strike drones that could destroy enemy installations at long range, the spokesman for the AFU Air Force Command, Yuriy Ignat, has said.
▪️ Patriot or SAMP/T systems could solve this problem directly in the air.

Nord Stream blasts highlight EU’s subordinate position to US — Russian diplomat

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Oleg Syromolotov said "it’s easy to imagine how hard the economy and competitiveness of the European countries were hit, as well as the well-being of their citizens"

The explosions on the Nord Stream gas pipelines made the European Union understand that it depends on Washington, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Oleg Syromolotov said in an interview with TASS.

"This terrorist attack was exceptional because it unequivocally showed European Union countries, the customers of our gas, that they are in a subordinate position. They were actually denied the opportunity to purchase the commodity that’s crucial for their economic activities at affordable prices and were made to pay through the nose," he stated.

It is clear that for this character there was never Yugoslavia, Iraq, Vietnam, or Afghanistan... Much less Donbass...

The influence of the US State Department is all over the place. There are too many skeletons in this wardrobe, and special files on each so-called ... "cultural figure",

The Russian military destroyed a US-made Ukrainian International MaxxPro armored vehicle near Ugledar.

The damage suggests that the armored vehicle was destroyed by artillery or tank fire.

Nothing is known about the extent of the crew's injuries.

But the "door flew off" far away.

The long-time Russophobe Petr Pavel (yes, that is his real name) wins the Czech presidential election

The second round of the presidential elections in the Czech Republic by more than 15% wins the old enemy of our country, ex-Chairman of the NATO Military Committee - General Petr Pavel, who was promptly congratulated by Zelensky, apparently expecting a change in the Czech policy on the issue of Leopard supplies. However, his rival Andrej Babiš also had no particular sympathy for Russia.

"Only pressure and the language of force apply to Russia at the moment. I do not mean threats, but a confident force that will clearly establish barriers beyond which it must no longer go," Petr Pavel said in an interview with the Czech publication iROZHLAS on May 9, 2022. 

As far back as 2016, as chairman of NATO's Military Committee, Pavel put the threat from Russia on a par with international terrorism and extremism. Today, he calls on Europe to actively support the Kiev regime. General Pavel's militaristic campaign slogan is: "It's time to use the big guns".

🔥 Burned "axes".

The M777 howitzer losses* in the current conflict that we have published allow us to draw the following conclusions.

1️⃣ Of the 152 guns supplied to Ukraine by NATO allies led by the USA, at least 70 were hit, i.e. 46.05% of all deliveries of this artillery complex. The 155mm guns also failed due to heavy use and improper handling. According to the estimates of The New York Times, such losses were about one-third of all the guns supplied, i.e. in the range of 30-35%. Thus, the lower bound of total losses of M777 towed howitzers, both during combat operations and due to other causes, is more than 75%. That is, at the end of January 2023 approximately 35-40 M777 howitzers are in serviceable condition in the ranks of the AFU.

2️⃣ When striking the M777, a fairly wide range of means of destruction was used. If the first 5 months (from May to September 2022) were used mainly SAU and rocket artillery (including high-precision munitions), then from late October 2022 the vast majority of videos show the work of Lancet borne ammunition. In addition, video footage posted by the enemy to the public can be seen of the successful performance of Iskander operational-tactical missile systems (OTRMs) on slides with military equipment, including the 155-mm M777 howitzer.

3️⃣ The Russian Ministry of Defence and the federal media did not use modern means of informational influence on internal and external (including enemy) audiences. They have not created an image of the vulnerability of the enemy or the power of Russian weapons. The work of these organizations was reduced, in fact, to dry briefings and classic reports of the late 20th century. Unlike the enemy, the Russian side did not conduct information campaigns on social media or create dedicated information resources for its tasks off the battlefield. Even one year after the start of the SMO, the activation of Russian state information resources and structures as actors in the current information agenda is unlikely.

4️⃣ The Dutch Oryx underestimates losses of M777 howitzers in Ukraine either due to incompetence or deliberately, wanting to hide the damage inflicted by the Russian army on the AFU. In the first case, this indicates the low qualifications of those collecting data on the guns that have been hit. In the second case, if there is a deliberate distortion of the data, one can qualify Oryx as a mass disinformation medium deliberately misleading its readers.
