Russians say nothing to see here.

2/ Valery Aleksandrovich Glyzin of the 80th Guards Tank Regiment (military unit 87441), which has recently been fighting near Pokrovsk, recorded a video accusing his commanders of crimes. He says that his own execution had been ordered in retaliation for writing a complaint.
3/ Glyzin says that he signed an army contract on 26 September 2024 in Chebarkul in the Chelyabinsk region. He was being treated in a hospital in Brianka for an unspecified ailment and was due to be sent to the rear for a military-medical commission (VVK) to evaluate his fitness.
4/ Instead, he says, he was sent to the front line for complaining about the illegal actions of his company commander, Dmitry 'Kemer' Kemerov:
5/ "I wrote complaints to everyone about the company commander, so I was lying in the medical battalion, on Monday they were supposed to take me to the VVK, they put me in category “G” [unfit for service]. They found out that I was writing complaints, they immediately took me to the front."
The anti-drone cloaks didn’t work.
And the backpack full of ammo/fuel didn’t help either.
WARNING: Video shows Russians burning up.
The post doesn’t say what the liquid is. Any ideas? Napalm?

Russians have started adding a viscous liquid to Shaheds that burns even when mixed with sand.
Additionally, the Shaheds have been spotted with a Chinese protected 8-channel GPS antenna designed to resist Ukrainian electronic warfare systems.

The account Killed in Ukraine, which tracks confirmed reports of Russian officers killed in Ukraine, has published an update that shows 6,483 officers gone. But it was only published here on Twitter.
I and others have complained to him/her that the updates are not also posted on Bluesky, where Killed in Ukraine has an account and used to post regularly, prompting this reply:
Russia upgrades the Shaheds.

Russia is now using a new Iranian Shahed-136 variant in Ukraine, marked “MS”. It’s a step up from the older models, with upgraded satellite navigation and a camera connected to an Nvidia Jetson module for visual target tracking. The engine and warhead appear unchanged.

This is one of the main lessons of this war — quality vs. quantity.
x
While Western nations pour billions into cutting-edge weapons, Ukrainian soldiers are winning battles with fishing nets, garden wire, and drones built in garages – exposing a fatal flaw in how we think about modern warfare.

Similarly, a million low-tech drones can sometimes achieve more than 1,000 high-tech ones, especially when smarter systems are scarce, expensive, and slow to produce. The ability to flood the battlefield with simple, practical tools can overwhelm even the most advanced defenses. A 50-year-old Soviet-era tank or a Toyota pickup that can reach the front in five days is often more useful than a main battle tank equipped with the latest technology that takes two years to deliver.
Another lesson of the war — it is quite difficult to enforce economic sanctions.
