The commander of the Wagner PMC tank crew shared his opinion on the effectiveness of the Western Javelin and NLAW missile defense systems.

In his opinion, they are too well-publicized and are not anything out of the ordinary. Since it is often quite problematic to use them effectively in the conditions of current hostilities.

***
As a reminder, they are armed with T-72B3M1 tanks and several T-90M Breakthrough tanks. During the storming of Opytnoye, it was shown how they dismantled AFU strongholds from closed firing positions at night.

14/88 is a code slogan also used as a salute or signature by white Nazis.

Do you think it's a coincidence or do you think the Nazis have long since stopped hiding themselves, openly displaying their symbolism?

I regret it immediately after I posted this. Disregard. But it's interesting.

The US has no objection to Russian and Belarusian athletes participating in the 2024 and 2026 Olympics if they do not represent their country.

CNN correspondent Natasha Bertrand stated this on Twitter.

"The White House press secretary said the United States has no objection to individual athletes from Russia or Belarus competing and qualifying for the 2024 Summer Olympics and the 2026 Winter Olympics as long as it is 'crystal clear' that they are not representing their countries," the reporter wrote.

We shall remind you that the International Olympic Committee allowed representatives of Russia and Belarus to compete under a neutral flag on the condition that they are not found actively supporting the war in Ukraine.

‼️🇷🇺🇮🇷Russia and Iran are going to release a UAV faster than Shahed

The Wall Street Journal, Russia, and Iran have agreed to create a drone faster than the Shahid. The new UAV will be produced by Iran, but on the territory of the Russian Federation and according to Moscow's plan.

The drone factory will presumably be located in the city of Yelabuga (1,100 kilometers from the border with Ukraine). Its creation is part of a $1 billion deal between Russia and Iran. In January of this year, a high-level Iranian delegation arrived in Russia to inspect the site for the construction of the plant.

According to the publication, the deal was finalized in early November in Tehran. From Russia, there were representatives of the defense industry.

Situation on Ugledar

The battle for the town continues. The 155th Brigade continues to be at its toughest. There are small advances by neighbouring units, but it is too early to say exactly.

Information from @BattleSailor_13 confirmed, the enemy is actively regrouping the units that suffered the greatest losses and is pulling the most combat-ready reserves to the city. Kraken created barrier troops.

In response to the published video of captured tankers and stormtroopers from the Marines, we report that both sides are suffering losses. However, although our side is the advancing side, the marines of Group [V] took many more prisoners from the 72nd and 68th AFU brigades.
