Not a wild guess that several hundred UA soldiers perish each day, only along a part of the Donbass front. And they keep sending in more.

Yesterday some OSINTers said that UA started sending "territorial defense" troops to the east. Those people correspond to the "home guard" in many EU countries. My fellow Europeans know the rest and its implications.

I think UA lost over a thousand soldiers in the past 24 hours.

The 'International legion of the territorial guard of Ukraine' database was leaked
Names, nationalities, numbers, DOBs of every foreign member. Several hundred people in total.

Won't post the link as it's personal details at the end of the day, regardless of whose side they're on.

Lots of people from Belarus, Britain, Georgia, Israel, Canada, France and Sweden in particular.

Another Brit. He was only the driver of the cook, of course.

Wonder what Zelensky is going to do at G20 summit? Guard the coats or something? Then keep the wallets with you!

He will get the bags with the 33 Bill. $ from the american printing press there. Saw a nice comment from a russian about the money. He said 32,999 Bill. will be stolen and 1 Mio. will be used to produce a film how wisely they used the money from the west. Most of the million will also be stolen, of course.

Nice to see Kh-59 at work Smile I wonder how many were produced so far?

Gepard can be used effectively to combat russian helicopters, drones and especially infantry, including lightly armored vehicles.

Except Gepard uses radar which makes it easy to find and its 35mm guns reach out to about 3-4km while Russian helicopters carry a range of anti tank missiles with Vikhr for example reaching 10km targets, but even the simplest cheapest Shturm and Ataka have 10 times more penetration than they would need to defeat the Gepard, and being radio command guided the helicopter that launches them can fly around in a random pattern while the missiles streak to their target at supersonic speed...

Putting Ukrainian soldiers into German armoured vehicles just makes them easier to see and easier to kill... so keep it up.

U ve to operate with Gepard then u would understand what beast it is. Tunguska is hopelessly outmatched by Gepard

Obviously someone who has never seen Tunguska... two twin barrel cannon firing 2,500 rpm with a 30 x 165mm cannon shell... but also with 8 surface to air missiles that use command guidance that can't be stopped by DIRCMS or Flares or Chaff and can reach 8km in their early models and 10km in the later versions which outranges most western helicopters anti armour weapons means Tunguska... even from the 1980s is vastly superior to the Gepard.

Do they even have Gepards in service these days?

Clearly posted om MoA by a Slovac who is a wee bit confused regarding history.

Gepard is completely outdated. The Dutch variant, originally named PRTL (Panter Rups Tegen Luchtdoelen - Tracked Armored Vehicle against Air Targets) had already a better Holland Signaal radar, after that they modified it into the Cheetah. In 2004 (18 years) it was disbanded from active use because it was obsolete and not up against modern(EW) systems. So the effectiveness of the Gepard.....

Back then in the eighties they already had special Mi-8 EW variants specially for surpressing the FCR/TAR of this SPAAGs.

Same with the Leopard 1, even with training ammunition (normal steel penetrators) you could punch a hole anywhere on the front hull or turret and it ended in the engine or back out of the turret.

Sincerely
Lesley

I have heard analysis that the Kiev regime is not expending its best troops first but sending in the reserves.   This makes sense
to me.  

Which units would that be? Maybe some units that were stationed around Kiev. Bulk of paratroopers and mechanized infantry are already in Donbas and around Kharkov.

And now several TG people say around 1000 are trapped in Oskil, and another 1000 in Oleksandrivka (Kherson oblast), and are being systematically annihilated.

Obviously can't vouch for the veracity, but they say UA sources are confirming.

If true, this weekend sounds like the bloodiest one yet.

One can hope they surrender, even though that violates Kievs orders.

That would be funny, if not true

Intelslava is the only one that claims 1000 around Kherson. I think that he might be wrong.

Today there was a guy with his family who left azovstal after supposedly he found a radio and heard that there is a humanitarian corridor. People found his photos on vk from 2012 and 2013.

Interesting things are being revealed.

The lend-lease bill (the supply of weapons to Ukraine) was submitted to the US Congress on January 19 - more than a month before the start of the special operation in Ukraine.

And this once again confirms that Ukraine was armed purposefully, regardless of Russia's actions.

It looks like a pirate convention to me. I told you guys. The plan of HATO against China was the nuclear attack submarines to sink their surface fleet then do commerce raiding on their merchant ships.

They probably think they can do the same to Russia.

And what will happen to American aircraft carriers, destroyers, amphibious assault ships if China uses DF-21 and DF-26?
You seem to have forgotten that ...

Brief summaries of yesterday and today as I have no time and energy to write a full complete report. I commented on Cassad report to add a little original content

Serbian volunteer sniper in the DNR, Dejan Beric, published a summary of the situation on the Izyum front. I presume he was from the contingent of DNR forces which was sent to the Kiev and Kharkov regions. Makes for interesting reading, and he appraises the situation on some other fronts as well and on the whole

Give this map to the collective West "international community" leaders

In the last days more and more sources claim that the big push hasn´t started, despite the progress. The big push could really be aimed at Dnjepropetrovsk and Zaporoshyie.

By suffocating them one by one?

A = shot down UKR drones reported
B = shot down UKR Tochka-U missiles
C = missile strike against UKR ammunition depot
D = missile strike against a UKR Buk-M1 anti-air system
E = unconfirmed reports of UKR National Guard & AFU units being encircled

All hits against substations

Welp, so much for the UN Secretary-General's plan of evacuating civilians with the involvement of the Red Cross
