Two more Su-34s experience negative takeoffs.
There was also a rumor online that notorious bigmouth Russian TV propagandist Vladimir Solovyov was killed by a kamikaze drone while filming a report near Klishchiivka. Alas, it was just a rumor. But his day of accountability is coming.
Moldova needs air defense systems to be able to defend its own airspace against these violations by Russia.
The thing about these zombie charges is that Russia will keep sending them out over and over and over until eventually one of them breaks through or manages to hold a tree line. It it costs several hundred soldiers to do that, they don’t care.
Ukraine’s drone attacks on Russian refineries is taking a toll.
This is unusual because it is a kamikaze drone attack on troops inside Russia. This attack was near Belgorod.
WARNING: The video shows a soldier with a bloody face.
The shelling of Kherson goes on and on and on.
Confessions of a Russian looter.
This is long, but quite enlightening as to the reasons soldiers loot, how commanders have no control over it. This particular looter talks about how exhilarating it is to be able to do whatever you want and break in to any house you want. But then he talks about how wrong it feels to be going through peoples’ photographs and other private things and how “a barbarian wakes up in every person during the war.”
When we entered near Kyiv there was some kind of cockiness... Let's put things in order here! Let's calm down everyone who said something against the Russians! For the first time this all manifested itself in Zdvizhevka. At first, we carefully looked into the windows of the houses, looked at what was "useful".. We went to the store, but it was already turned inside out... The commanders poured alcohol into the street.
We were looking for something, so to speak, to eat... When we came in, they gave us 2-3 dry rations per person... Naturally, all this quickly went away, but there was still no supply. We wandered around the village. The comrades who were standing nearby found bags and picked up some potatoes. Then someone said that there were a lot of chickens nearby. We went together. He found a net for catching fish, and I armed myself with a hoe. Somehow he caught this rooster, and I beat him with this hoe with the words "Please, forgive me." We plucked it and boiled it with potatoes. It wasn't tasty...
A couple of days later, a local contacted our commander and asked to be escorted to a safe place with his family. They lived in a huge mansion. The commander said not to worry. He promised that the house would be intact and no one would go there. I personally saw how a foreign-made car was driving away, and our KamAZ was driving ahead... Within a couple of hours, our paratroopers and parachute companies climbed into the house.
Then our guys went here. It's an inexplicable excitement when absolutely anything is possible! You can break into doors, break out windows, turn someone else's life inside out... Then I collected some kind of USB-powered lamps, carabiners and a cable (the owner was fishing, there was an expensive boat in the garage)... The commander went around yelling at us, but still, over and over again groups climbed into the house in search of something new..
Then there were the Ozyora (lakes). There, during the first quiet days, everyone from the division prowled throughout the immediate area. We also went looking for a kettle to boil water, but all the houses were already turned inside out... I don't know what people were looking for, but everything was just turning inside out. Boxes were thrown onto the floor, everything was thrown out of cabinets. A jumble of children's toys, photographs, clothes and everything else underfoot... I admit, when there was no need, we still went "to the huts"
My friend and I decided to take a walk to a large red brick house We saw that a shell had landed on it... We went into the corridor, everything was already blown apart... And we heard that someone was rustling in the kitchen. We slowly approach it. A woman and a girl come out to meet them, and my friend puts a gun to their faces, "Stop!". Lord, how they cried... It turns out that they were the owners, mother and daughter... After the shell arrived, they lived with the neighbors and came to collect some things..
I was sick of it all. Trampling other people's lives. Looking at photographs of other people's families. But then we lived only in the present day... There is now, and that's it. Now I'm hungry. I want warmth. I want to wash myself... We broke into one of the houses, found a bathtub, heated water in it over a fire on the street, and carried buckets of water into the house and washed ourselves. I washed myself twice in a month. We turned out the closets just to find clean linen. At least socks...
Then it became the norm. You just go into any house you like, like in Popasna, where there were practically no civilians... Or you ask the locals where the owners of the house are, as was the case in the Kherson region, Zaporozhye and Kremennaya... If they say that they have gone to Ukraine or are fighting for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, then the door is knocked down and this house becomes ours... You can talk endlessly about the warrior- liberator, but a barbarian wakes up in every person during the war... And the more losses, the more you think that you are doing everything right. Near Kherson, to the question "What are you doing here?" I answered, "Shouldn't have touched the
Russians!". We have to live with this.
The Russian embassy in Oslo, Norway.
urn the sound on for this one.
Macron says he does not exclude the possibility of sending French troops to Ukraine.
1. That’s still a long way from actually sending troops.
2. This is a long way from Macron’s early war position of trying to negotiate with Putin.
Good riddance. Burn in hell.
I guess his big ass gun didn’t protect him.
Russian paranoia about Navalny knows no bounds.
The 70-year-old Orlov is co-chair of the Nobel Peace prize-winning human rights organization Memorial. He was sentenced to 2.5 years in prisoner denouncing the war in Ukraine.
About 15 countries have joined this initiative to buy artillery shells from other countries that have them and ship them to Ukraine. This war has clearly taught the West that in confronting Russia you have to have the capacity to produce a very large amount of artillery ammunition.
While Europe struggles to find shells to buy in other countries, North Korea sends 3 million shells to Russia.
It’s awful to see children having to run from missiles.
BREAKING: Secret CIA program codenamed Operation Mickey releases genetically modified rodent agents to infiltrate Russian lines and spread despair by drinking all their vodka.
You don’t mess with Mark Hamill on social media and come away looking good.
Dad’s home.
That’s an awesome mustache.
It’s cute how they protected the cat’s identity too.
A happy survival story.
