Another brilliant analysis from the Master of wrong predictions. "There are always gas shortages in Crimea, it's the tourism you guys!" From the creative mind of the infamous 'wet explosions'
This is kind of an aside, but I love how the Ukrainians time their cope drone campaigns to coincide with maintenance and economic cycles so they can claim they caused some (actually) cyclical shortage.
There's always gas shortages in Crimea in summer. It's tourist season.
In light of President Trump’s recent statement that Russia wants to make a deal and that Ukraine will have to move, I want to give you an update on the current state of affairs for Russia.
1. Severe infantry shortages. Over the last couple of months, Russia has struggled to carry out any meaningful or tactically significant assault operations. A key problem is the low quality of recruits, which results in understaffed assault units.
2. Last year’s tactical successes around Pokrovsk and Hulyaipole were achieved largely because of severe fog, which exposed a number of weaknesses in Ukrainian defensive tactics that have since been mostly addressed.
3. Ukraine is currently conducting several successful counterattack operations in the south and rolling back Russian gains.
4. The Russian troop strategy is “complete the task and die,” according to a friend who is fighting. It is a borrowed-time strategy, and that time is running out.
In summary, Russia is bashing its head against the wall of Ukrainian defenses, and moving to appease Russia makes zero sense now.

Hello everyone. I am fundraising for engineering equipment for Ukraine and I need your help, so I’m asking you to donate, repost, comment, and hit like on this message. (Donation link at the end.)
I’d like to show the effectiveness of the aid we provide in a short video shared by a friend of mine whose unit we have been supporting.
In this video, you can see a Krab SPG hideout after more than 30 FPV drone strikes.
We provided this unit with an excavator to build the hideout and additional cage protection for the howitzers themselves. Thanks to these combined efforts, this howitzer survived over 30 FPV strikes.
Although damaged, it was sent for repairs and will soon be back in service.
A howitzer like this costs more than 12 million dollars, while the excavator plus cage protection cost us only 60,000 dollars combined, and they supported multiple howitzers, not just one.
So I’m asking you to help me finish this fundraiser. We have already collected 85k out of 120k. Please like, repost, and donate.
I would also like to note that we have an anonymous donor who agreed to match up to 20,000 dollars. All you have to do is donate and post a screenshot. Thank you.

Witting or unwitting doesn’t always matter. In many cases, the Russian services prefer it if you *don’t* know you’re working for them. The least trustworthy assets, historically, are those who do it for the money—if they’re your targets, it is best to hide who you are precisely because of their mercenary (i.e. duplicitous) nature.
Hello my friends. This new video was shared by my friends from the 🛡️ 5th brigade to help us with the fundraiser and bring awareness about the war against Ukraine.
Unfortunately, the ammo shortage is very real and these brave 🇺🇦 warriors have to be very efficient with whatever they have. Making a mistake is not an option and costs us lives.
Please, RT, like and comment, it helps greatly with promoting the tweet 🙏.
I am starting a new fundraiser today to help multiple brigades, including the 5th. The drones that we buy will help Avdiivka, Bakhmut, Kupyansk and Mariinka axis.

I greatly appreciate the support that we are getting from everyone.
God bless you, and Slava Ukraini.
@polidemitolog Let's hope there isn't more sinister play where Trump offers blocking Ukraine aid for election interference, Kremlin help and financing. Johnson being just useful idiot.
Much depends on the U.S. and European countries resourcing Ukraine's war effort, but it is important to articulate a vision for how those resources might best be used to rebuild Ukraine's advantage. Written with my good colleagues @RALee85 and @MassDara. https://t.co/7yx7MP3ggA
For Russia, "peace agreement" only means "time to rearm". We are dangerously close to missing the opportunity to end centuries of the Kremlin's imperial aggression and secure the future of multiple continents. Our children will curse us in the trenches we are digging for them.
