Incredible video of a Ukrainian commander of the 475th regiment without body armour rescuing two heavily injured Ukrainian soldiers with truck after their evacuation robot became damaged on the frontline from FPV drone attacks putting himself in grave danger.
Very brave.
I'm loving this.
The Iranian regime supplied Russia with attack drones and the technology that enabled Russia to scale up their mass production.
The North Korean regime openly sent troops to fight against Ukraine, while also supplying Russia with vast quantities of artillery ammunition, ballistic missiles, and self-propelled artillery systems.
The Belarusian regime allowed Russia to use its territory to launch the assault on Kyiv, handed over military stockpiles, and continues to host relay stations that help guide Russian drones striking Ukrainian cities every single day.
But GOD FORBID Ukraine strikes back and targets a single Iranian ship in the Caspian Sea as part of its campaign against Russian transportation infrastructure.
Now that's automatically WORLD WAR III!!!!!!!!!!!
The firing of Gen. Syrskyi and his replacement as commander of the Ukraine armed forces by the widely respected Gen. Mykhailo Drapatyi confirms what I wrote on Monday: that, even though it’s not possible to hold elections in wartime, Ukraine remains a democracy. Zelensky listens to, rather than represses, protesters. This is why Ukraine will win—because of the strength of its civil society. https://t.co/CTF79AudeC
A real shame to send the great Messi out with such a vulgar display of fouls, fights, and disrespect. It's a way of losing twice, instead just once on the pitch to a clearly superior side.
🚨 Roy Keane on Nico Williams disallowed goal against Argentina:
“I’ve just seen the biggest robbery of this World Cup. The ball comes into the box, nobody touches anybody, everyone goes up for it, then one Argentina player starts shouting. The next thing you know, two defenders are on the floor appealing,
Nico Williams has scored, and Emiliano Martinez … who wasn’t even touched… is somehow lying there as well asking for a foul.
The referee blows immediately. No VAR review. No replay. No check to see if there was actually any contact. Just disallowed. Apparently if enough Argentina players fall over at the same time, that’s now considered conclusive evidence.
If we’re being honest, Paredes shouldn’t even still be on the pitch after some of the tackles he’s made today. Yet somehow the only thing the referee managed to spot instantly was an invisible foul.”
Just imagine this: in 12 days, Ukraine, primarily its Unmanned Systems Forces, has struck 159 (!) Russian shadow fleet vessels.
‼️159 vessels in just 12 days.
Of those:
-117 were hit in the Sea of Azov
-42 in the Black Sea
Ukraine achieved this drones.
The video below shows one of today’s strikes on a Russian oil tanker.
“We’re isolating Crimea and closing the routes in, not the route out.
The bridge is still standing for one reason: so the occupiers can fuck off.
Tankers are burning. No fuel. No power. No future for russia’s war machine there.”
Commander UAV Forces is just getting started 🚨
Ukrainian forces released another epic video, showing 28 more Russian ships being hit in the Azov Sea. This makes 76 ships being struck in just 5 days.
It appears that Russian shipping in the Kerch Strait has collapsed thanks to this intense drone war.
Holy shit.
Madyar’s Birds took out 8 Russian tankers, 1 cargo ship, and 1 ferry from the shadow fleet in a single night (!).
At this point, Ukraine is effectively seizing control not only of the northern Black Sea, but of the entire Sea of Azov as well.
📏+🧠 Below are at least six reasons why Putin has not launched a nuclear strike against Ukraine:
Kursk Nuclear Power Plant: Approximately 100 km from the Ukrainian border, and about 40 km from the city of Kursk.
Rostov Nuclear Power Plant: Roughly 470 km from the Ukrainian border, and about 13 km from the city of Volgodonsk.
Novovoronezh Nuclear Power Plant: Around 340 km from the Ukrainian border, and about 45 km from the city of Voronezh.
Smolensk Nuclear Power Plant: Approximately 370 km from the Ukrainian border, and about 3 km from the city of Desnogorsk.
Balakovo Nuclear Power Plant: About 750 km from the Ukrainian border, and very close to the city of Balakovo.
Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant: Roughly 900 km from the Ukrainian border, and about 70 km from Saint Petersburg.
Kasparov: Ukraine's drone revolution is the equivalent of gunpowder ending feudalism.
A townsman trained with an arquebus could take down a knight from 50 meters — and the entire medieval vassal system collapsed. What we're witnessing now is a shift of the same magnitude. 1/
Garry Kasparov: The Army That Enters Ukraine Will Not Return to Russia
Putin will use any ceasefire in Ukraine to prepare for an invasion of NATO countries.
Russia is preparing for war. The goal of such an attack, according to Kasparov, would be to demonstrate that NATO no longer exists as an effective alliance. The statement was made by one of the leaders of the Russian opposition, Garry Kasparov, during an interview on the YouTube channel Forum of Free Russia.
> “I don't know how much it would affect the overall geopolitical situation, but for Putin it could become the achievement he currently lacks,” the politician said. “NATO is gone. It doesn't work. We crossed the border, and they're over there doing something.”
> “The Americans are not really in the game here, so I would consider this scenario very likely. And this isn't just my opinion. It's what everyone is talking about—if not publicly, then at least behind the scenes at conferences. It has long ceased to be a theoretical threat. It is now a threat that must be taken into account in practical terms.”
Russia is actively expanding its military infrastructure along NATO's borders. This is evidenced by satellite imagery showing the construction of new military bases, weapons depots, and the deployment of large quantities of military equipment. After the war in Ukraine, Russia reportedly plans to station 115,000 troops near NATO borders.
Analysts identify several regions where these forces could be concentrated. According to expert assessments, the number of Russian ground troops near Finland's border could increase to 80,000 personnel. Within a matter of weeks, Russia could transfer hundreds of thousands more troops from other parts of the country to its western frontiers.
Another major concern is military reform. Instead of relying on small combat groups, Russia is creating large divisions of up to 10,000 troops and is actively studying lessons from the war in Ukraine, including the mass use of drones.
> “We've been saying this many times, and you don't have to be a great researcher to understand one simple fact: the army that leaves Ukraine will not return to Russia,” Kasparov said. “That means any ceasefire in Ukraine, if one becomes possible, does not mean Russia will transition to a peaceful footing.”
> “Maybe I've missed something. Maybe I need new glasses or even a microscope to find any sign that Putin's Russia is preparing for peaceful life. Everything happening—in finance, the economy, propaganda, and education—is geared toward war, and specifically a long-term war. And that war is not against Ukraine. It is a war against the free world.”
Russian attacks like the one on Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a UNESCO world heritage site and one of Ukraine’s most significant cultural and religious sites, show just how desperate Putin's become. He’s losing on the battlefield, so he resorts to terrorism. Ukraine is winning.
Most of Ukraine’s industry was built on the “wrong” side of the country, near the border with Russia, at a time when it was assumed the enemy would come from the west https://t.co/XjRsU4OOtU
O'BRIEN: Trump believed Ukraine had no cards, that he could bully Ukrainians into giving Putin very good deal.
He didn't understand that Ukraine was developing their own capabilities and their willingness to fight.
So, Trump failed for two reasons. First, Ukrainians adapted, and that wasn't expected by him.
You can see there have been some changes in his rhetoric lately, where he has to grudgingly admit that Ukraine has actually done better.
The United States completely underestimated Ukrainian resilience.
Secondly, Trump thought Europeans would bully Ukraine along with him because they would be afraid of United States leaving NATO.
He thought he could use NATO to push Europeans to force Ukraine to take a bad deal. Europeans eventually helped Ukraine more than he thought.
They seem to understand that it's actually better for them to have Ukraine fight the war the way Ukraine wants.
Trump didn't understand what Ukraine was capable of and he misjudged what Europeans would do.
Ukrainian forces using drone and missile strikes on bridges have completely shut the entrance to Northern Crimea forcing Russian forces to use pontoon bridges for logistics:
-Chonhar bridge has been hit twice with traffic closed
-Bridge on Arabatskaya damaged with traffic severely restricted.
-Perekop Bridge severely damaged.
-Bridge at Armyansk automobile bridge badly damaged.
Two bridges across the North Crimean Canal Preobrazhenka and Myrne damaged traffic restricted.
