A QUESTION
I loathe football and the World Cup is nauseating, especially this year. But how did a Somalian referee get a work visa into the US to act as one of the main referees for the tournament and then get blocked from entry because Somalian is on the list of states the regime disapproves of?
The oil pumping stations around Moscow were also a target, aggravating fuel supply shortages in the capital. It’s just more bad news and it’s going to be like this until Russia leaves Ukraine.
HUGE US DEFENSE BUDGET PUBLISHED BY HOUSE COMMITTEE
It’s the largest ever peacetime budget and there’s more to be added by other means. Even so naval construction is low compared to China, notable extras are 15 new KC-46 tankers replacing those lost in Iranian attacks. More F-15EX’s which partly
too late. If the Russians push hard in one position the Ukrainians bend like a reed to let it play out then the positions snap back in another spot to undermine what Russia has achieved.
Russian recruitment is said to be struggling to make up for losses. Nobody wants to sign up now it looks like
rather areas of overlapping zones of control. These flex like bubbles and the most resilient bends and reshapes to match the pressure placed upon it. Ukraines operational tactics give it more flexibility and manoeuvre. The Russians continue to complain they rarely see a Ukrainian soldier until it’s
Ukraine sends against Russian towns with industries that aid the war. Everyone sees and hears about what happens even with censorship. Flamingo missiles did a massively successful job of hitting a microelectronics factory that supports the drone industry. It was gutted- their best success so far.
the war is never going to be won. It would mean dying for nothing and the Russian army still essentially uses a modernised meat wave system to make gains. Their tactics are moribund and unimaginative even now. They have no way forward.
The lack of recruitment is also linked to the domestic attacks
RUSSIAN FORCES GAIN GROUND IN KONSTATINIVKA: BUT SO DO THE UKRAINIANS
This is Russias primary area of operations and from time to time they expend sufficient resources to make small gains. But they do so at the expense of the Ukrainian forces taking back other areas. There is no solid frontline,
make up for losses, and a huge ammunition boost to make up for what was lacking and what was used up.
