Despite being outgunned, Ukraine keeps fighting like hell against the Russians. Here is a compilation of some of the expensive Russian assets they've destroyed over thr last 48 hours.
Russian SU-25 fighter jet shot down near Pokrovsky....
TOR-M2 SAM system destroyed by a HIMARS strike in in...
Really interesting geopolitical scenario between Ukraine 🇺🇦 and Hungary 🇭🇺. Although part of the European Union 🇪🇺, Hungary is alligned with Russia and Russian interests in the war. As such, they are currently blocking a $7.9 Billion usd tranche of aid from the European Peace Facility For...
Big development for Ukraine that I've been calling for. They have officially announced that they are going to allow foreign pilots and aircraft maintainers to join the Ukrainian Air Force. This is imperative to maximize the use of the F-16 fighter jets they're going to receive. As it stands...
A Kamala Harris / Mark Kelly ticket will demolish Trump and Vance.
Harris will hammer Trump on abortion and women's reproductive rights, which lost Republicans seats in Red states during the midterms. She'll also reinforce him being held liable for rape by a court. I think She'll better...
Biden endorsed VP Harris. She'll bring the black / minority vote and reinvigorate Democrats in this race... But her VP selection is most important. She needs to choose somebody that is going keep all of the traditional Democratic voters on board and who will draw in moderates / independents. The...
In reality, HAMAS chose to exchange the lives of 40,000'ish of their people for 1200'ish of Israel's (and counting). Seems like incredibly poor foresight to me.
It makes complete sense for Russia to target Ukraine's critical infrastructure. It's part of their goal in forcing the Ukrainians into capitulation. It's the West's responsibility, as Ukraine's ally, to help them defend their critical infrastructure.
On the other hand, Russian infrastructure is...
Big boy strike by Israel. That port receives 70% of Yemen's seaborn trade and it's temporarily crippled. Exactly the kind of highly damaging strike that was inevitable after the Houthis have spent months inserting themselves into the Gaza conflict and striking merchant vessels peacefully...
Britain 🇬🇧 has agreed loan Ukraine 🇺🇦 $2.6 Billion usd to purchase its own weapons. The Brits have all but admitted that they are running low on weapons to send Ukraine from their existing inventories, and would rather loan them cash that they can use to purchase weapons for around the world to...
Rarely do we get information regarding Ukrainian and Russian brigades being trained and what they're being equipped with. We hear about equipment donations, and Russian production, but we rarely know exactly who gets what. Here is rare example of a Ukrainian brigade that will be trained in...
Details of the $50 Billion usd loan to Ukraine that will officially be announced in the fall, have emerged. The loan will be repaid via interest collected from Russia's frozen assets. The breakdown of the loan is as follows:
USA 🇺🇸 $20 Billion usd
European Union 🇪🇺 $20 Billion usd
Britain 🇬🇧...
The Czech Republic 🇨🇿 have quietly delivered 30,000 RPG-75M to Ukraine. The transfers have not previously been announced and they are expected to continue into the future as the Czechs produce them domestically in large quantities...
Norway 🇳🇴 has agreed to transfer an IRIS-T SLM air defense battery to Ukraine in cooperation with Germany 🇩🇪. The battery will arrive in Ukraine during the fall.
While a step down from Patriot and SAMP/T, Iris-T is extremely accurate and easily intercepts Russian cruise missiles and drones...
Update on the delivery timeline for artillery shells to Ukraine purchased by the Czech 🇨🇿 led initiative. The initiative will procure 800,000 122mm and 155mm shells.
50,000 shells were delivered in June. 50,000 additional shells will arrive in each of July and August. 80,000-100,000 shells will...
Five new military aid packages for Ukraine have been announced over the last 24 hours at the NATO summit in Washington. USA 🇺🇸, Canada 🇨🇦, Denmark 🇩🇰, Australia 🇦🇺 and New Zealand 🇳🇿 have announced fresh rounds of aid.
The United States 🇺🇲 has announced a new $225 million usd aid package for...
I've got to call out Britain 🇬🇧 here for a moment. The British Government is prepared to commit $3.8 Billion usd worth of funding to Ukraine each year until the conclusion of the war. That might seem noble, but as one of Europe's leaders (despite leaving the EU) this is actually fairly paltry...
Look in the mirror man lol. Do you think that the Czech Republic 🇨🇿 gives a crap about what's happening in Gaza, half a world away, where they have no political or military influence?
They care about what's happening in Ukraine because it's virtually next door and they're a former Soviet...
For the record, Biden's "historic announcement" about air defense systems for Ukraine was partially, but not completely lame. NATO is going to deliver 5 additional strategic air defense batteries to Ukraine. 4 Patriot batteries and 1 SAMP/T battery... Here is the problem, all 5 of these systems...
Nope. Both are just self-interested parties and we choose sides based on which party better serves our own self interests. Anyone telling you anything to the contrary is full of shit.
