Bad for Russia. I wonder how many Ukraine recruited and lost over the same period. I wonder because the data are not released, are they?

It is not very useful to know how badly Russia is suffering while not knowing how badly Ukraine is suffering.

Burning to the ground: A Russian LNG tanker is on fire in the Mediterranean Sea after being attacked by "unknown" individuals.


"Under the cover of the hot phase of the US-Israel war with Iran, which is beginning to spread throughout the Middle East, a flashpoint of confrontation and tension is flaring up much further afield, in the Mediterranean Sea. Of course, not without the help of Ukraine and its current puppeteer, Great Britain.

The Russian liquefied natural gas tanker Arctic Metagaz caught fire in the Mediterranean Sea en route to Egypt, and the fate of its crew is unknown. It was carrying cargo from the Arctic LNG 2 project and was attacked by allegedly "unknown" drones, according to Reuters.

Greek media reported that the ship was possibly attacked by unmanned drone boats around 04:00 a.m. local time, followed by several explosions. Judging by the footage from the scene that has flooded the internet, the ship and its cargo are expected to burn to ashes. Western media are "timidly" avoiding the subject of the culprit of the disaster, which looks more like political a terrorist act, although the signature is more than recognizable.

According to one theory, the LNG tanker may have been attacked by Ukrainian drones from Libyan territory, where Ukrainian special forces are said to be operating," - writes Russian Reporter

It would be interesting to know how many 'draft dodgers' are in Ukraine and how many are in other countries.

A side effect of the Iran war/conflict/special operation is that it may give Russia the opportunity to increase crude sales. I hear that a large number of shadow fleet tankers were loaded and left Russia with no buyer for their cargo. I presume that none of them need to pass through the straits of Hormuz to deliver their cargo.

Footage of the attack by the Russian FPV drone "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky," controlled via fiber optic cable, on a Ukrainian military tractor BAZ-6953 in the Kherson region. This is the first footage of the destruction of a BAZ-6953 during military operations in Ukraine. The BAZ-6953 artillery tractor was produced in the USSR from 1987 to 1993; its specifications are shown on the screen. The BAZ-6953 is designed to operate in road trains with a gross vehicle weight of up to 45 tons and tow artillery systems and trailers with a gross vehicle weight of up to 15 tons. As a result of the strike by the FPV drone "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky," the Ukrainian BAZ-6953 was destroyed.

Ukrainian military personnel unveiled a 2S22 "Bogdana" self-propelled howitzer on a Tatra chassis, equipped with a homemade "Mangal" anti-drone system. Currently, this is the most effective anti-drone system, and the Russian army also uses it.

By the evening of the first day of the Karabakh War, the Russians began joyfully shouting, "The Azerbaijani blitzkrieg didn't work!" :rolleyes:

But the Russian blitzkrieg in Ukraine seems to have worked perfectly :ROFLMAO:
War turned into attrition war.But it's not a laughing matter.It's extremely dangerous.

The only footage released from three angles shows the impact of a Russian FAB-3000 aerial bomb on a building housing a temporary Ukrainian military base in the village of Liman. The attack was carried out by a Russian Su-34 frontline fighter-bomber.

Footage of the Russian Lancet kamikaze drone being used in combat in Ukraine in February and March. This isn't the only example of the drone's use. The Lancet-51 kamikaze drone is used most frequently, while the Lancet-52 kamikaze drone is used much less frequently. The video shows Lancet kamikaze drone strikes against Ukrainian military equipment in the Donbas and Ukraine.

A battle took place in the village of Novohryhorivka on the border of the Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhia regions of Ukraine. Groups of Ukrainian soldiers reportedly broke into Novohryhorivka during a counteroffensive. Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers attempted to disperse throughout the village. After the battle and strikes by Russian Lancet drones, one group of Ukrainian soldiers took refuge in a house. Upon noticing this, Russian troops destroyed the building with a grenade launcher.

While Hungary 🇭🇺 is temporarily blocking the $105 Billion usd loan to Ukraine as Orban continues acting as Putin's puppet, the Scandanavian and Baltic countries are set to step in with a $35 Billion usd bilateral bridge loan, designed to cover Ukraine's military and budgetary needs between April-August. The loan will cover the money Ukraine would have received from the EU loan during the same time period.

This strategy is designed to allow elections to happen in Hungary later this spring, in hopes that Orban is ousted from power, allowing the new government to drop the Hungarian veto, freeing up the entirely of the massive EU loan for Ukraine.

Again, the Europeans have found a way to keep their support for Ukraine intact and get around Putin and his Allies' attempt to neuter the Ukrainian war effort.

The EU needs to reform itself and get rid of the unanimity system. Decisions should require only a qualified majority (like at least 60% of countries representing at least 60% of EU population). The current system is broken. It is not meant for rapid decisionmaking required in times of war.
