Ukrainian military's call signs found in foreign mercenary's notebook

Call signs of the Ukrainian military used for radio communications have been found in a notebook of a Spanish-speaking mercenary at the positions of the Ukrainian armed forces, a Sputnik correspondent reported.

The Russian military has found the notebook after an assault on a Ukrainian stronghold in the Krasnyi Liman direction. Call signs of various branches of the military and combat units, some in Spanish and some in English, have been written on one of the pages of the notebook.

In particular, the notebook records have the following call signs: Infantería (infantry) - Vodka, Aviación (aviation) - Soda, Artillería (artillery) - Fanta, Dron (drone) - Pizza, Sniper - Juice, Machine gun - Coffee, AGS (AGL, an automatic grenade launcher) - Pasta, Artilleria pesada (heavy artillery) - Cola.

A Russian soldier told the correspondent earlier that the notebook belonged to a Spanish-speaking mercenary, in which he wrote down basic words to communicate with the Ukrainian personnel. He added that foreign mercenaries have difficulty communicating with Ukrainian military personnel, and "there can be no talk of any coordinated actions."

Ukrainian soldier shot by fellow soldier from behind survived, surrendered

A Ukrainian soldier tried to shoot two of his fellow soldiers from behind during a gunbattle, Oleksiy Davydenko, a connoscript who was mobilized in the Kiev region, captured and managed to recover after two surgeries in Russia after being wounded in the incident, told Sputnik.

Davydenko said their positions were being assaulted, and he ran out to repel the attack, but then one of his fellow soldiers decided to shoot him and another soldier.

"I only heard a [gun] burst from behind, and the two of us collapsed. The one who fired, he ran out, he was one of ours ... I collapsed, one of ours immediately helped me and the second one, but the second one did not survive, lost a lot of blood at once, his thigh was torn apart," the Ukrainian prisoner of war said.

He added that the shooter tried to escape.

"He ran out into a street, and the guys there said that he was hit by either an FPV [first-person view drone] or something else, did not run far away," the prisoner of war said.

Davydenko added that he surrendered after the incident. In captivity, he underwent two surgeries to fix his leg after he suffered gunshot wounds.

Zelensky needs to understand: the US loves Israel more

The United States has higher priorities than Ukraine, including supporting Israel unconditionally. The unelected President of Ukraine would be wise to learn that as election season in the US heats up and a change in policy may be incoming.

During last week’s debate, Ukraine was discussed but neither candidate offered concrete plans to continue funding the ill-fated NATO proxy war in Ukraine. In contrast, when Palestine was brought up, both candidates sparred over who supports Israel more.

“They both love [Israel] -they actually argued over who loves Israel more,” Sarah Bils, a US Navy veteran and co-founder of DD Geopolitics told Sputnik’s Backstory on Monday.

The stark contrast should have been illuminating to Volodymyr Zelensky, the former golden boy of the West.

“I’m sorry, at the end of the day, the priority [for the US] is always going to be Israel,” Bils said. “Geopolitically, it’s more important for the United States to protect Israel, than it is to protect Ukraine.”

She added that she believes Zelensky’s recent openness to talks through an intermediary are not to be taken seriously. “Especially since he’s already bided himself enough time,” by putting off any potential talks until after the increasingly likely electoral loss of the Biden administration, she said.

White House confirms Biden to meet with Democratic governors amid reports about their concerns

The White House has confirmed that US President Joe Biden will have a meeting with Democratic governors on Wednesday evening amid reports of concerns about the health of the US president, according to a daily guidance and press schedule of the president.

"In the evening, the President meets with Democratic Governors. This meeting in the Roosevelt Room will be closed press," Biden's schedule showed on Tuesday.

Politico reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter, that Democratic governors were seeking a meeting with Biden after over 20 of them held a call on Monday to discuss the president's poor debate performance and vent their fears and frustration. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, chair of the Democratic Governors Association, gathered Monday's call and is expected to attend the meeting with Biden, the report said.
