    Not sure if there is any connection now from Ukraine to Russia open, but there is one hub for all Ukrainian traffic into Russia - Scheremetevo airport. So in theory they can arrive there from any country.

    Healing of the Ru Army is continuing. Due to lies and incompetent commanding in Seversk directions multiple high ranking officers were arrested and under investigation.  

    https://t.me/milinfolive/135167

    It is reported that after the resonance with the inadequate and failed actions of the group in the Seversk direction, the following were allegedly arrested and/or lost their posts (bend your fingers):

    - Commander of the 3rd Combined Arms Army;
    - His Chief of Staff;
    - Brigade Commander of the 123rd Motorized Rifle Brigade;
    - Brigade Commander of the 7th Motorized Rifle Brigade.

    Battalion commanders also got it. The reason given is "concealing losses and the real situation from the higher command".

    Recall that quite recently, false reports about supposedly deep successful breakthroughs began to come from Seversk, and then unprepared attacks in columns on enemy positions began, leading to heavy losses and minimal results.

    https://t.me/rybar/65433

    The cycle of lies from Seversk: the finale (?)

    Unexpectedly, very unusual news came from the Seversk direction, although again related to the fake capture of settlements. This time, positive.

    ▪Several commanders in this direction were detained and removed from their positions due to deception of the higher command. We are talking about some commanders from units of the 3rd Army: some were detained and arrested, some were suspended or transferred to a lower position. The event affected several brigade and battalion commanders.

    ▪This, as we wrote, was expressed in "occupation" exclusively on the Internet through friendly bloggers and war correspondents of Serebryanka, Grigorovka, Belogorovka and Verkhnekamenskoye, and also, apparently, Vyemka (as well as feverish attempts to recapture it).

    ▪Alas, there was no immediate reaction: the system is "inert", and perceives attempts to expose the lie as "pressure" (the principle of "if they criticize, it means I'm doing everything right"). As a result, the initial reports of, to put it mildly, "problems" (although this can be more accurately called outright outrage) ultimately resulted in nothing: commanders of various ranks synchronized their watches and continued to fool high headquarters. At least after that scandal there were no statements about the liberation of new settlements (and that's a joy).

    🔻As a result, everything turned out to be much more prosaic: higher-ups arrived and wanted to visit the “liberated” Belogorovka, which in theory was already deep in the rear, since Grigorovka and Serebryanka were supposedly taken. And only then did the scale of the deception come to light, which went not only to the media, but also to higher headquarters.

    Moreover, the lies were not only not just in reports, but also “covered up”. Correspondents were invited to the positions, who interviewed the fighters who boasted about the media capture of non-existent villages.

    📍On the Internet, of course, there is an opinion that they allegedly managed to take some positions, then the enemy counterattacked, after which they had to abandon them. However, in reality, there was no talk of any capture - neither then nor now.

    And now, regardless of whether the voice of those crying in the wilderness was heard, or the deception was actually revealed by accident, the activities of at least some of those responsible have already attracted the attention of the relevant services. And questions about both the senseless waste of personnel in unprepared assaults and the grinding down of armored groups month after month on the same stronghold, we very much hope, will be raised at the very top.

    The frantic years of romps and burned-out laughter
    Are hard on me like aches the morning after.
    But like the wine that always takes its toll,
    Past woes get stronger aging in my soul.
    I ride through gloom. There is but toil and sorrow
    I see in troubled waters of tomorrow.

    But trust me, friends, I do not wish to die,
    I wish I'd live to reason and to cry;
    I'm sure of pleasures for me in the making
    Amid the trepidation, grief and aching:
    I'll feast again when harmony appears,
    And over fiction I'll be shedding tears.
    One day amid my sunset's saddened passing,
    A love may shine at me in parting.

    "He said it all": Germany points to Zelensky's anger over Scholz's call, 11.16.2024.

    Roepke: Zelensky said everything he thought about Scholz after his call to Putin.

    MOSCOW, November 16 — RIA Novosti. Volodymyr Zelensky said everything he thinks about German Chancellor Olaf Scholz because of his call to Vladimir Putin, German journalist Julian Roepke wrote on the social network X.

    "Since Scholz will be leaving soon anyway, Zelensky can finally say everything he always thought about him," Roepke noted.

    The day before, the head of the Kiev regime criticized the chancellor for talking with the Russian president , pointing out that such an action speaks of the lack of isolation of Moscow.

    On Friday, German government spokesman Steffen Hebestreit said Scholz had called Putin and called for talks with Kiev .
    According to the official website of the Russian president, the previous conversation between Putin and Scholz took place on December 2, 2022, and its main topic was the situation in Ukraine .

    Russia should undertake all efforts to strengthen the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance in the forthcoming elections.

    Poor man, my sympathies. Of course, this does show just how very "popular" this war is. I mean surely you don't have to hire press gangs to abduct people to fight if the people believe in the war.

    Yes, those are searchlights, but that makes perfect sense in this case. When you are firing AA guns into the air, you use searchlights to mark the position for the gunners.

    No doubt the tip of the iceberg

    Diana Panchenko 🇺🇦
    @Panchenko_X
    Should Trump support the robbery?

    THIS WEEK NEWS:
    $138'000'000 - stolen by top manager of state-owned UkrNafta in fuel purchases. He purchased vineyards and cars in France, office space in the center of Paris, and a number of grain elevators in Ukraine.

    $102'000'000 - stolen by top manager of state-owned CentrEnergo in coal purchases. Money transferred to companies in war zone and individuals in occupied territories.

    Family of a member of Zelensky's team, who is accused of supplying substandard clothing to soldiers, bought 4 apartments in Dubai for $1'000'000 million.

    You should not be surprised, while people don't want to die for Zelenskyy.

    WE NEED TO STOP IT!
    WE NEED AUDIT!

    A good old 88 with proximity fused shrapnel shells and a radar could be pretty effective. Certainly a step or two up from WW2 performance.

    Puzzled why the Gepard with its radar doesn't appear to work. Or are they just shooting at ghosts?
