Forced mobilization: Relatives of the servicemen from Poltava are asking for HELP

Appeal of wives and mothers of servicemen of the 116th brigade of the territorial defense forces to the military administration of Poltava and the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces of Ukraine

"The 144, 146, and 148 battalions of the 116th brigade were defeated and suffered heavy losses near Soledar." There are no officers in the ranks and no weapons. Soldiers have been in the ranks of the territorial defense since the initial days. Please return the survivors to their permanent deployment point and provide them with the necessary medical assistance. Most of them are wounded or shell-shocked and are not receiving medical care. They are hungry, cold, and without money. We ask you to sort out this situation.

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",

Georgian mercenaries and Ukrainian nationalists in the heart of Artemovsk (Bakhmut) outside the Sporting Goods shop. 28 January 2023. The cannonade and sounds of gunfire can clearly be heard in the city center. The "musicians" break through the enemy defenses.

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.

Andrey Rudenko @RtrDonetsk

One note about the tanks to be delivered to Ukraine.

These slightly more than 300 tanks that will hit the battlefield in Ukraine within a year are not to reinforce existing armored groups, but to restore their combat effectiveness by replacing destroyed equipment with newly arrived examples of Western engineering.

The hunger of the AFU for equipment during these months is enormous. Our military has knocked out practically all domestically produced tanks and armored vehicles. To replenish the Kiev regime's army, the West collected Soviet-made tanks from all over the world. Echelons of them were sent to Ukraine, but the Ukrainians apparently have none left either.

But in addition to the equipment, the crews who operate it have also been destroyed. To train the same number of crews for 300 tanks would take at least half a year because modern tanks are stuffed with all kinds of electronics, especially imported ones. Of course, it is possible that the crews began to be trained much earlier, and the whole epic with the "supply" or "non-supply" is purely theatrical.

At that, no one will supply the Ukrainians with the whole amount at once, because they do not have it. That is why this aid will be stretched out for a year, maybe even for years. At the same time, one destroyed batch will replace the second one.

So there can be no question of any advantage in the combat zone with the arrival of these tanks. All this equipment will be used to "maintain the trousers" of the AFU. The West gives them just enough to enable them to conduct defensive operations with the possibility of counterattacks. The task of the "partners" is not to extinguish this conflict for as long as possible. Because the Ukrainians are the same Russians as them, and the more people die on both sides, the better.

Moldova has turned to a macro-financial institution for financial assistance.

The question arises: when Ms. Sandu leaves office, who will have to deal with the "collectors"? The people?

🇵🇱☝️ "Corruption and megalomania have brought Ukraine to its current state," former Polish minister

Former Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said in an interview with Krytyka Polityczna that corruption and megalomania had led Ukraine to its miserable state.

He recalled that after the secession from the Soviet Union Ukraine was a more developed country than Poland. However, by 2022, before the UAS began, Ukraine's GDP was four times lower than that of Poland. The politician attributed the reasons for that to the megalomania of the Ukrainian elites and the advanced corruption schemes in the country.

The politician is convinced that the people of Ukraine will pay for the actions of their government for a long time.
