Today is gunner/artillery day in Ukraine, so that probably explains this video.

Originally Posted By Fund_GARISSON: You do realize that if North Korea and Iran start attacking, the US will respond View Quote I dont believe a major war now is on their timeline. Too soon for their plans...Thanks to Ukraine, the West has kinda, sorta started to wake up and realized that enemies still exist and have been plotting, preparing, scheming, and working together and now acting decisively. Many leaders and governments have been exposed as actively working for the enemies while many thousands, maybe millions, of their sympathizers have been exposed massing in Western capitals. Iran doesn't have nukes yet, or at least not many and no good delivery systems (hopefully) so starting the smackdown with Israel is pre-mature. China will make a move on Taiwan but even the half-hearted response by the West in Ukraine, combined with the incredible overmatch between 30 yo US weapons and "modern" Russian systems must make them take a pause. Norks will do what they are told by China but the fact they are shipping ammo to Russia tells me they dont want to open up the Korea front now. It certainly IS possible that the enemies will act bigly before the West completely awakens from their slumber and/or a strong, uncompromised leader get elected in the USA. If they had waited another few years, I think there would have been little to no chance, at the rate Western societies are weakening. Now...who knows. |

It was not a surprise therefore, to me or the Russians, that the AFU followed up with a missile strike today against targets either in occupied southern Kherson or Crimea. This is not the first time this has happened and is just another example which confirms a pattern I reported on previously in which AFU drones are use to attack and/or activate Russian air defenses to either destroy them or locate them prior to a missile strike. FYI: Sometimes it is what you can't see that matters the most. View Quote |

On the left bank of the Dnieper.
There are 3 small bridgeheads firmly under the control of our fellow marines, and over 5 small areas under varying degrees of control with a very dynamic situation. "The terrorists are constantly working at the deployment sites with aircraft, artillery, and drones. Over the past few days, they have reacted very nervously and redundantly to any movement on "their" coast, covering the area immediately just in case or dismantling the building if there is a suspicion of entrenchment , therefore the situation is quite difficult and dynamic" (Information from brothers from the left bank). https://t.me/odshbr46/1360 |

I think we might see the Bayraktar's show up again, which would be a good sign that something has changed. |

Much more in link, specific companies and their roles in helping Russia are listed. WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) continues to disrupt the networks and channels through which Russia attempts to sustain its beleaguered military. Today’s sanctions focus on individuals and entities abetting Russia’s unconscionable war against Ukraine by providing Russia with much-needed technology and equipment from third countries. Additionally, these actions take aim at Russia’s domestic industrial base, which is seeking to reinvent itself as the maintainer of Russia’s war machine. With these designations, Treasury is disrupting producers, exporters, and importers of nearly all of the high-priority items identified by the international coalition imposing sanctions and export controls on Russia. “Russia is dependent on willing third-country individuals and entities to resupply its military and perpetuate its heinous war against Ukraine and we will not hesitate in holding them accountable,” said Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen. “Our global sanctions coalition has choked off Russia’s access to key inputs for its military industrial complex and has undermined the Kremlin’s ability to wage its unprovoked war. Today’s actions demonstrate our further resolve in continuing to disrupt every link of Russian military supply chain, and target outside actors who would seek to support Russia’s war effort.” The U.S. Department of State is also issuing nearly 100 sanctions today targeting Russia’s future energy production and revenue, metals and mining sector, defense procurement, and those involved in supporting the Russian government’s war effort and other malign activities.

Guarantee that 1.5 billion people no longer care the slightest think about Ukraine now that war has opened between Israel & Palestinians, and it's affecting other nations too as the Palestinian diaspora rises up cheering violence & hate in every major city - Berlin, Paris, London, New York, Chicago, etc, etc. Not to mention, the war in Ukraine is stuck - neither side is able to gain an advantage and move forward. Ukraine had their offensive that fizzled, now Russia is having theirs. We'll see if anything significant changes before winter. It would be attention-grabbing if Ukraine was able to move in force across the Dnieper or toward Azov; or if Russia started making major gains again, but that would not be the attention you want. |

Let's say that somehow they did managed to cut that land bridge. That means the line of contact just got a whole lot longer. They're barely able to defend the current line. It's unclear what might happen if the lines suddenly expanded. I don't know if it would be more likely to break Russia or Ukraine. |

Truths that are going to be hard to change. Russia now has a manipulated war economy and is using this to push/encourage men to join the military in order escape debt and provide some money to their family. If russia can somehow come up with enough people, they can have enough soldiers to have a breakthrough force while maintaining defensive forces through the rest of the battle line. They are trying, but I doubt they can do it without a much more aggressive and overt draft. But they are trying. |
