"In 2023, the army received approximately 540,000 contract soldiers
In 2024, it was 440,000.
In 2025, recruitment fell to 400,000.
The forecast for 2026 gives a range of 320–350,000 people.
A decrease of 35–40% in three years is not a fluctuation; it's an exhaustion of resources.

Financial incentives and one-time payments – everything that worked in 2023–2024 – no longer attracts recruits.

Those who were willing to go for money have already gone. Those who remain are soberly assessing the risks.

The campaign of pressure in universities – signing contracts under the threat of expulsion – is no longer voluntary recruitment. It's a hidden forced mobilization, but without a decree."

Loomer: I spoke to Trump about two days after interviewing Zelenskyy.

He told me he likes President Zelenskyy very much, but he also likes Vladimir Putin. He says he gets along with both. I do plan to meet with Trump when I get back.

👑 Putin Is Building a Fortress in the Heart of Russia

According to OSINT analysts, Moscow is rapidly being transformed into a multi-layered fortress. Four defensive rings have already been built around the city, with the largest — the outermost ring — now nearly complete.

🔵 The scale is striking. In just a couple of months, more than two dozen new towers for Pantsir air defence systems have been erected around Moscow.

🔵 The first defensive ring stretches roughly 40 kilometres from the city centre, with additional positions protecting oil refineries, electrical substations, Vnukovo Airport and, naturally, Putin's residence.

🔵 Air defence systems are even being installed on rooftops across the city.

🔵 Analysts have identified around 250 air defence and radar positions in the Moscow region, though they estimate the real number exceeds 350.

🔵 Moscow is clearly getting top priority when it comes to air defence systems and missile supplies.

Meanwhile, many other Russian regions are left with little or no protection, as their air defences are being redirected to shield the capital.

The most important point, however, is that even such an exceptionally dense air defence network is failing to stop Ukrainian drones from reaching Moscow.

By the mid-1960s, the U.S. Navy's EA-1F Skyraider was an old warhorse, a piston-powered aircraft in the jet age. It wasn't fast or glamorous, but it carried the Navy's primary electronic warfare mission during the first half of the Vietnam War. It was during those days that EA-1F pilots received very unusual and disturbing instructions... 1/2

“The Ukrainian campaign knocked out more than 30 and 45 per cent of Russia’s actual and nominal capacity, respectively, triggering the worst fuel crisis in the petrostate since the collapse of the Soviet Union…

Ukraine’s targeted campaign, aided by US and French intelligence, has helped trigger a severe fuel crisis in Russia, with sales restrictions in nearly every region and long queues at filling stations.

Russia had restored some refining capacity, helped by a resumption of operations at Omsk, said Daniel Evans, global head of fuels and refining at S&P Global Energy. But much capacity remains offline, making supply to Russia’s otherwise balanced domestic market “very challenging”, he added.”

An interesting op-ed from a Ukrainian serviceman:

"Let's be honest: ordinary society is currently almost completely unprepared to meet those who are doing everything so that, in the thirteenth year of the war, Ukraine continues to exist and fight. I'm not talking here about the families and loved ones of servicemen, but about the millions of citizens and their families who are evading military service, for whom war is something far away...

Analyzing how the civilian world in Ukraine's rear is preparing for mass demobilization and the return of servicemen, another historical experience comes to mind — the U.S. circa the 1970s, right after the end of the Vietnam War. This parallel is the most frightening, because we risk repeating someone else's social catastrophe while having our own, even more complicated starting conditions...

But American society back then pushed away not only evaders — it also pushed away its own veterans, because of deep rejection of the war itself. Coming home, soldiers faced aggressive protests, accusations, and complete disregard for their trauma.

Our war is existential; in many cases servicemen are respected only in words. It's an abstract, "remote" respect that works flawlessly on social media and collapses instantly on contact with reality. The isolation of Vietnam veterans arose against a backdrop of social hostility. Ours risks growing not out of hostility, but out of institutional incapacity and civilian fear of the hard experience of war. These are different diseases, but the result could prove equally destructive."

レアアースは精製工程の9割超を中国が握り、磁石に不可欠なジスプロシウムはほぼ100%中国産という日本産業の「急所」でした。今回の出資は、この急所を突かれない体制づくりの具体的な一歩です。注目すべきは対応の速さです。2月の政府間協議からわずか5か月で出資を決め、来年度の生産開始まで見据えるスピード感は、従来の資源外交にはなかったものです。中国が対日輸出規制を強める中、JOGMECを通じた官民一体の調達多角化は経済安全保障の要諦を押さえた動きで、南鳥島沖の海底資源開発と並ぶ「脱・中国依存」の両輪として高く評価できます。 https://t.co/YZsWXYsCqK

In the strike on Radushne, for the first time in a while, the Russians used a North Korean missile, according to preliminary data. Of course, more examinations will follow, and everything will be verified, but as of now – it is a North Korean ballistic missile. The alliance between the Moscow scumbags and the deranged regime in North Korea exists for the sake of missiles, North Korean troops on our borders here in Europe, and killing our Ukrainian children.

Of course, many around the world condemned this strike today. There were many expressions of sympathy over the loss of life. European countries also made many statements because a Russian missile flew into Polish territory and exploded somewhere in a field near Lublin. What matters most, however, is not mere sympathy and condemnation, but air defense missiles and pressure on Russia that can stop this dumb Russian war. Air defense missiles – for Patriots in the first place, but also for NASAMS, IRIS-T, HAWK, and our other systems – are the key priority.

I hope that all of our partners – above all our American partners, as well as our friends in Europe – will feel that real human lives depend on whether they help us.

Ukraine has been launching more long-range drones at Russia than Russia has been launching at Ukraine for the fourth consecutive month.

This is according to military analyst Clément Molin.

According to his assessment, Russia’s vast territory helps disperse production but at the same time makes it more difficult to protect facilities.

Drones can bypass air defenses via concealed routes and strike targets deep behind the front lines.
