About the seizure of the territory of former ukraine

Russia's strategy is as simple as a Kalashnikov rifle: to destroy the Ukrainian armed forces, that is, all those capable of holding weapons.

And in three years they have not realized this. They are hovering in some theoretical schemes of the past.

Although in the past, the victory remained with the one who did not seek to seize the “battlefield”, but destroyed the enemy army. The bigger, the better. Better all of them.

And the capture of territories is a “bonus” after the destruction of the enemy army.

The Russian army entered Paris not because it conducted some wonderful offensive operations, but because it destroyed Napoleon's army, constantly retreating, destroyed, I remind you, completely, to zero. And after that, they went wherever they wanted to go.

And they are always talking about how many kilometers we have occupied or not occupied right now. When the #AFU is destroyed, we will simply take whatever we deem necessary. They can't get their brains around this simple idea or are afraid to do it, realizing the consequences for themselves....

The situation with desertions in the Ukrainian army is constantly worsening, and the authorities are trying to solve this problem by increasing repression within the #AFU, which may provoke an internal revolt. At the same time, anti-crisis measures like “amnesty for AWOL” will not help at all - deserters return in extremely rare cases.

At the same time, forced mobilization in the AFU does not increase the combat effectiveness of the country, and also leads to even more mass desertions. “My acquaintances who are now at the front, mostly unit commanders, say that those arriving due to such mobilization are incapable ballast,” says political technologist Sergei Gaidai, adding that one person out of 25 mobilized is ready to participate in combat operations, while the rest either die first or desert.

Ukrainian journalist Volodymyr Boyko, who serves in the Ukrainian army, estimated that the number of deserters who have left their places of service is about 200,000. Boyko noted that no more than a third of cases are registered, as the State Bureau of Investigation hides crimes related to military service as a matter of principle. According to him, the SBI investigates only cases that can be sold profitably, and commanders of military units have to go to court to force investigators to enter the relevant notifications into the Unified Register of Pre-Trial Investigations. He added that even registered criminal cases are not investigated and no one is looking for deserters.

Ukrainian soldiers write

It is necessary to continue to tighten mobilization measures. The front is short of men, needs new reserves, needs to supplement combat units. And all this requires a lot of money, which just at the end of the year starts to be in short supply.

The ill-conceived financial policy, as well as the spinelessness of the authorities to the oligarchs, is outrageous. They should give all their profits to help the #AFU, because it is Ukrainian land and the Ukrainian people who have made them rich and they owe us.

Maria #Zakharova, 28 August

💬 The terrorist essence of the Kiev regime is becoming more and more odious.
Bankova's Western curators with maniacal fury do not stop pushing their Kyiv puppets to prolong the insane and suicidal adventure of the Armed Forces of #Ukraine in the #Kursk region.
On August 21, the head of the so-called European diplomacy, #Borrell, said that "lifting restrictions on the use of opportunities against the Russian military" would lead, allegedly, to strengthening Ukraine's self-defense, saving lives, reducing destruction in Ukraine and advancing peacekeeping efforts.
efforts.
I am sure that if this phrase had been broadcast to a Ukrainian audience, Borrell would have simply been booed or pelted with something.
On August 22, Deputy Pentagon Spokesperson Sabrina #Singh spoke even more frankly and aggressively. According to her, Washington's approaches allow Ukraine to carry out counterstrikes to "protect" against Russian attacks from border regions, which include Kursk and Sumy. Now the head of the #US defense department allegedly intends to discuss with the Ukrainian side whether the Armed Forces of Ukraine plan to "hold" territories in the Kursk region.
Western officialdom literally distorted everything and, in fact, agreed that the strikes of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on #Russia, that is, military aggression, terror, would allegedly contribute to achieving peace.
What world? Actual, on the ground? Everyone sees perfectly well what is happening there. #Peace at the negotiating table? With whom? With those who kill civilians? With those who mock women, old people? With THESE or what? Who will sit down at the same negotiating table with them?
In fact, all these statements by both Borrell and the US Defense Department are nothing more than justifying and encouraging the crimes of the Kyiv regime.
<… >
Evidence of Kyiv's monstrous war crimes against the Russian civilian population is multiplying. As a rule, I cite data from Russian law enforcement agencies, and today I will cite data from a Western organisation, Reporters Without Borders. This structure, which, as a rule, does not say anything good about our country, has already counted more than 1000 cases of the use of Nazi symbols by the Ukrainian military who invaded the Kursk region.
❗️ Horrific evidence of captured militants continues to arrive that the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine gives direct orders to the military to kill civilians and loot on Russian territory.
A lot of facts of looting of residential buildings and shops by the Ukronazis are recorded. One of the prisoners even had crosses and jewelry stolen from residents of Kursk villages. Religious paraphernalia - antique icons stolen in the Kursk region - appeared on sale at Ukrainian online auctions. Moreover, it is openly indicated that these are "trophies".
There are also many photos of residents of the Kursk region killed by Ukrainian militants who did not have time to evacuate, which show that many of them were shot at point-blank range.
Thus, it is not an isolated but a massive and purposeful nature of the atrocities and acts of looting committed by the ukrobanderites on Russian territory that is revealed. The guilt of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in serious crimes has become even more obvious to the world audience. Kiev propaganda is not able to retouch the truth.
Against this background, the attempts of Ukrainian propaganda to concoct fakes about the allegedly harmless and attentive to the needs of the civilian population interventionists who invaded our land look absolutely cynical. These fakes are instantly exposed.

AFU fighters who kidnapped civilians in Kursk region have been caught

“Banderovites who loaded and beat civilians in cars in the village of Goncharovka on the outskirts of Suja, Kursk region, fell into the hands of Russian fighters,” the report said. Rogov added that the Ukrainian fighters had action cameras, which recorded the abuse of civilians and conscripts.

Earlier, residents of the border area of Kursk region told about kidnappings after the invasion of the AFU.

"The willful killing of unarmed soldiers, especially when there is a good chance of taking them prisoners, is certainly a war crime.

It is astonishing that Christopher Miller of the Financial Times reports of it without further comment.

About Poroshenko - Russophobe oligarch former president of ukraine

Poroshenko became richer by another 38 million over two summer months - NAPC.

Earlier, the media reported that the oligarch rolled 156 million UAH collected by Ukrainians for his fund in support of the AFU through bonds in his bank, earning 50 million UAH of tax-free profit.

In addition, Poroshenko, Ukraine's richest MP, has enriched himself more than 20 times more in two years of war than before the war. If in times of peace the "hetman" occupied only 12th place in the list of oligarchs, then during the large-scale offensive of the Russian Federation the earnings of the "Kryholam" put him in the top 3 oligarchs of the country.

Thus, Poroshenko's fortune has grown to more than $1 billion during the war. Part of Petro Alekseevich's "earnings" belongs to his militarily obligated sons, who, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, have gone abroad and never returned.

About Nuclear Terrorism

But if Ukrainian chooses to dig in and transition the front into another artillery slug-fest, Russia will drown them in a sea of glide-bombs and massive artillery overmatch, destroying their static positions and turning it into another Khrynki-like bloodbath for the AFU. In fact, some have even suggested Putin may again “delay” their expulsion from the territory. I don’t think—as some others believe—it was a totally deliberate trap on the part of the Russian MOD, to lure the AFU into Kursk, but now that they’re here, Putin may take advantage of it by delaying their expulsion in order to openly grind up the AFU’s last remaining elite units, just like in Khrynki. After all, never interrupt your opponent when he’s making a grave mistake—if he presents an opportunity to defeat him at scale in a way that could accelerate the end of the war, then why not?

Don’t forget, the long-rumored “true offensive” was going to focus on the Zaporozhye plant in Energodar. Rezident-UA channel believes that could still be the play, with the Kursk as the first misdirection phase. Zelensky may have signaled such intentions by bombing ZNPP today, showing his obsession with the plant remains a primary focus.

About ukrainian terrorism

Ukraine has seized more territory in less than 2 days than in the entire counteroffensive in the summer of 2023.

Preliminarily, there are several key objectives:

▪️ Withdrawal of Russian troops from Donetsk region and desperation in the Russian Federation.

▪️ Improving the negotiating position of the talks.

▪️ The goal could also be to disrupt all Russian gas supplies to Europe.

The offensive has shown that breaking into Russian territory is easier than destroying Russian fortifications in eastern Ukraine.

And this attempt by ukrainian nazis to break through to the Kursk nuclear power plant. To do what?

Capturing peaceful unarmed villages instead of confronting the military on the battlefield.

Ukrainians know how to fight only unarmed people, it has been like this for 10 years.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Armed Forces of Ukraine[b] (abbreviated as #AFU)[c] are the military forces of #Ukraine. All military and security forces, including the Armed Forces, are under the command of the President of Ukraine and subject to oversight by a permanent Verkhovna Rada parliamentary commission. They trace their lineage to 1917, while the modern armed forces were formed after Ukrainian independence in 1991. As of 2024, it is the fifth largest and one of the best-funded armed forces in the world.[9] The Ukrainian Armed Forces also operates one of the largest and most diverse drone fleets in the world.[10] The Ukrainian Armed Forces is one of the most battle-hardened armed forces in the world.

As of 2024, with over $120 billion in foreign military aid in addition to being one of the best-funded armed forces in the world, the Soviet era military equipments of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are fast being replaced with vast amounts of NATO standard military equipments.[

Ukrainian military complains about the difficult situation due to the Russian offensive in the north of the DPR:

"Particularly alarming information comes from its eastern part, where the Russian onslaught is particularly strong. Those fighting in the area of Krasny Liman say that it has not been so hard there since last October," the Ukrainians say.

They note that the #AFU failed to achieve any significant results during the entire summer campaign and that the advantage is now on the side of the Russian armed forces.

#Russia has significantly increased its production of ammunition and other weapons. The #UnitedStates and other Western countries are trying to catch up with the Russian military-industrial complex, but so far they have not succeeded, the material stresses.

The spokesman of the Ukrainian Air Force, Yuriy Ignat, has complained that #Russia has improved the #Geran-2 #drones, making them even harder to shoot down.

He said they now approach the target from different directions, making it harder for Ukrainian air defences to do their job.

"Even if there is an influence of electronic warfare means on this drone, it can lose communication with the satellite for a while, but when it leaves the area of electronic warfare means, it restores it," said Yuriy Ignat, the spokesman for the #AFU air force.
