❗️An Israeli mercenary complains about hardships in the Ukrainian army, while asking for money and weapons through social networks, Sputnik has discovered.

Ariah Ben Yehudah, 58, a retired Israeli police officer, decided to join the Ukrainian army's Foreign Legion unit in March 2022. However, his posts on social networks suggest that he may not be fully satisfied with his current situation.

The British-born Israeli mercenary often appeals to his subscribers for support, complaining about insufficient funds to maintain his vehicles (photo 1). He also encourages them to “put pressure” on governments assisting Ukraine for more military aid (photo 2). For instance, he recently requested that US President Biden provide 500 Abrams tanks to the Ukrainian army, emphasizing the “urgency” by asking "how many orphans does the West need?” (photo 3). In addition, he conveyed his frustration about the vulnerability of the vehicles he operates, saying he was "sick of flying around in these paper thin war horses" (photo 4).


When the conflict between Israel and Gaza broke out in early October, he left for Israel (photo 5). However, on November 1 he wrote that he had returned to Ukraine (photo 6).

🇮🇶 Day in history: Iraqi President Saddam Hussein captured by US military 20 years ago (13.12.2003)

The US forces found Hussein in the Iraqi city of Ad-Dawr during numerous searches as part of the course of the US invasion in Iraq. While being captured, Hussein did not resist, but only announced: “I am Saddam Hussein, the president of Iraq, and I am ready to negotiate.” Three years later, a court in Iraq sentenced Hussein to death.

The US launched its invasion based on alleged evidence that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction, presented by then-Secretary of State Colin Powell at the UN Security Council in 2003. However, a CIA report submitted to Congress a year later concluded that there were no WMDs in the country at the time of the invasion.

Not long ago, an excerpt from an interview with Vladimir Putin, recorded in 2007, went viral online. In it, the Russian president talks about Hussein and what happened next in Iraq.

“I don't see Ukraine surviving too long into 2024. The days of the West turning over hundreds of tanks, armoured fighting vehicles, and artillery pieces is over. We just don't have any left to give. So, the best Zelensky can hope for is penny packets of armor, infantry fighting vehicles, some ammunition, and maybe an F-16 or two,” Scott Ritter, former US Marine intelligence officer, former UN weapons inspector, told the New Rules podcast.

AI ranks Putin as one of the top three global power players

According to artificial intelligence evaluations, Putin’s command of an extensive military and pivotal role in the world energy market cements his position.

Also in the top league are Joe Biden, Xi Jinping, Narendra Modi, and Mohammed bin Salman. The surprise entry? Greece's Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis - a real dark horse in this high-stakes list.

But who's missing from the spotlight? Volodymyr Zelensky, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, British PM Rishi Sunak, and Turkiye's President Erdogan didn't make the cut.

Who do you think deserves the top spot? Let's get the debate rolling!

🤔 No money for Ukraine this year? Why Zelensky's charm hasn't worked on Congress

US lawmakers don't seem willing to pour more money into the black hole of Ukraine's war effort without oversight, strategy and prospects to win.

"Ukraine is losing all along the front," Dr. Jack Rasmus, a professor of economics and politics at St. Mary's College in California, told Sputnik's Critical Hour podcast. "And throwing bad money after bad is pretty obvious. But Biden is desperate. He's got to get some money out of Congress to at least get through the next couple of months because they will run out of money for Ukraine in the next couple of months."


Europeans also appear to be in a deadlock concerning next year's $54 billion in Ukraine assistance over Hungary's opposition.

"Zelensky's days are numbered and everybody knows that," Rasmus said. "And everybody knows that there's no new offensive that Ukraine can put up."
