@sidd_sharma01 #ShilpaChaudhary is part of the IW team of US Army. Recruited specifically to shape the war narrative of Indians favourably (aligned to USA). Who better suited for the job than someone who claims to be your own….

@pavannair “Ethos isn’t diminished by shared push-ups; it’s reinforced by leadership that can still lead from the front. For the first time, the Chief isn’t just preaching standards — he’s physically meeting them.”

#Russia using vintage tanks as Artillery. With drones to provide correction, they are a potent replacement to the Artillery Gun Systems. Much more agile and responsive. #UkraineRussiaWar

General "Armageddon" Surovikin published a video calling Wagner to "obey the Supreme Commander".

"I have just returned by the order of the Ministry of Defence from the zero line, where our forces, our commanders, our soldiers, volunteers carry out the objective, fighting the superior enemy forces to death, take casualties, but stand on their positions.

I appeal to the leadership, commanders and fighters of PMC Wagner: Together with you, we walked a difficult path. Together with you, we fought, we took risks, we took losses, but overcome together. We are of the same blood. We are warriors.

I call on you to stop. The enemy is waiting for our internal political situation to aggravate. We shouldn’t play into the enemy’s hand in this difficult time for the country."

It needs to be done before it’s too late: to obey the will and order of the people-elected President of the Russian Federation. Stop the columns, and return them to their permanent positions and places of concentration.

To solve all problems with civil means only under the leadership of the Supreme Commander of the Russian Armed Forces.

He is being slowly joined by other high-ranking commanders of the Russian army in similar videos.
