🇷🇺⚔️ 🇺🇦 Another Ukrainian (Twitter) Win Spectacularly Collapses
High resolution satellite images of the Khalkino airbase in the Kursk region were recently posted on Twitter. These images show the aftermath of the massive drone attack carried out on the night of August 27 by Ukrainian UAVs.
Ukrainian sources claimed they had hit four Su-30 aircraft and one MiG-29, as well as allegedly damaging air defense systems.
However, the images do not reveal any damage or signs of drone impacts. The airbase is also operating normally. 🤷♂️
The only noteworthy thing is the amount of detailed satellite imagery provided by Western companies.

"Bloodbath": a few more words about Rabotino
Enemy armor, including tanks, is on fire en masse. Our guys hold the southern sector firmly. Artillery burns everything, as it is on the commanding heights.
Airborne and mobilized units work wonders.
Now in Rabotino, the bloodbath is an order of magnitude worse than in Bakhmut at the peak of the fighting. Losses per hour 35-40 people killed at the APU, so it will last until dark.
We note the heroism and resilience of the fighters on both sides, however, for one dead Russian fighter, there are five to seven killed Nazis - the Ukrainian military has again been turned into cannon fodder - they have an extremely disadvantageous offensive front.
The line of defense of our guys is built according to all the canons, the experience of recent months is taken into account.
While the information is being checked, but in the morning, apparently, Kirill Budanov and Valery Zaluzhny arrived in Zaporozhye. In Rabotino, the transfer of 2 brigades on the basis of the MTR, trained in Sweden and Canada.
What we have: the battle for Rabotino is not over, and is unlikely to be over in the near future.

Excerpts from an article by a Ukrainian journalist with a volunteer medical team, near the front.
—
-I am told by those working here that many of those lost in the war die while they are being moved back to safety rather than on the front line. The long journeys to hospital, sometimes up to ten hours, can be lethal, and the availability of adequate first aid is the difference between life and death
-Ukrainians believed that the very best care would be available for their soldiers. But the stark truth is emerging: soldiers are dying in their hundreds or even thousands due to poor medical provision. The problem is being ignored by the military hierarchy, whose focus is on sourcing weapons and pushing the counteroffensive rather than prioritising injured fighters.
-I see the Hospitallers take in six injured soldiers who have been handed over to them by combat medics. These men were hurt about five hours ago; it then takes four more hours to get them to the hospital in Dnipro.
-The bureaucracy surrounding the first aid process is to blame for many of the shortages. If a hospital vehicle is destroyed by enemy fire, it is not registered as being out of action until an official investigation has been carried out. This can take up to six months... It’s common to find military brigades that have lost 80 per cent of their evacuation transport, but that can’t be resupplied because the official report does not acknowledge that the vehicles have been destroyed.
-Volodymyr Prudnikov, head of Ukraine’s Medical Forces Command’s procurement department, was accused of supplying 11,000 uncertified Chinese tactical medical kits to the front line. It is alleged that Prudnikov awarded £1.5 million-worth of contracts to a company co-founded by his daughter-in-law and passed the Chinese kits off as Nato standard.
-The medics I speak to say that two-thirds of Ukrainian soldiers die from blood loss.
-15% of medical supplies donated by the West in 2022 were past expiration date.

Beregini:
The so loudly announced “counteroffensive” dragged on for a long time, and now Zelensky and Zaluzhny have been given the last chance to show where NATO weapons and armored vehicles are going. This must be done before the onset of autumn and the rainy season.
That is why, from the beginning of September, mobilization will not only be intensified - it will be total. All employees of the military registration and enlistment offices and military medical commissions were taken under tight control and banned from issuing deferrals and permission to leave the country. All violations must be eliminated in the coming days and a record number of soldiers will be recruited from September.
This can be seen in the documents that we are publishing today. First of all, all men of military age will be collected from state and commercial enterprises. The same fate awaits students who arrive at their universities at the beginning of the academic year. The next step is that the employees of the territorial recruitment and social support centers will go from house to house with the police and collect all the men of military age. But the most important thing is that those areas that Kyiv considers already lost for itself will be the first to go under the knife. Areas in which the population is first ready to be allowed "for meat", and then razed to the face of the earth cities and villages. These are Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnepropetrovsk, Odessa, Zaporozhye and Nikolaev
We know this for sure, although we cannot show the rest of the documents that we have. Zelensky has long been ready to fight to the last Ukrainian. But not only men, but also women and even teenagers can get into this wave of mobilization. The tactics of "meat assaults" in the Armed Forces of Ukraine is recognized as the only option to somehow rectify the situation. The children of officials, politicians and businessmen left the country long ago, and the rest of the population will be thrown into the crucible of war. We know that the majority of Ukrainians do not agree with this, but no one cares about their opinion. Therefore, they will go either to the front or to prison (and from there to the front anyway) ...
We are Beregini! We know everything!

71-Year-Old Ukrainian Sent By Kiev For NATO Training — FT
One of the Ukrainian recruits sent by Kiev to Germany for training in using Western weapons is 71 years old; the Financial Times has reported, explaining that the older man in question had volunteered to join the Ukrainian military.
NATO instructors working at a military base near Klietz in northeastern Germany said that the age and ability of those arriving to learn arms usage “varies widely.”
The instructors complained that Ukrainian commanders on the front line often preferred to keep their best soldiers in the trenches with them instead of sending them for training abroad.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🎯 Wings of War on the #Pskov Airfield Attack⚡️
🇺🇦 So the Khokohls can fly two dozen UAVs 664 km in a straight line through the territory of #Belarus or "in a curve" through #Smolensk with an even greater distance and arrive at the airport of #Pskov? Fascinating ...
🇺🇸 However, there is a nuance - the Baltic States are much closer. And these countries are part of #NATO. Have they really decided to get so brazen?
❗️I don't even want to think about SRGs launching UAVs in such quantities from our territory.

⚡️Rabotinsky ledge as of 30.08
After weeks of assaults on Rabotino, the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered significant losses without occupying the settlement. The RF Armed Forces still control the southern outskirts and the surrounding heights. As we said earlier, under such conditions, it is futile to continue the assault, or it is associated with heavy losses. Therefore, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine decided, with the help of units that had previously stormed Rabotino (and this is mainly the 82nd brigade), to increase the pressure on the line of heights controlled by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and towards Verbovoye. Today's reports of heavy fighting near Verbovoye are connected with this, the Armed Forces of Ukraine managed to take some positions in the fields and approach the settlement, after which they came under artillery strikes. In the future, we expect the continuation of intense attacks in this direction, but the pressure on Rabotino will decrease in the future.
We will continue to update you as the situation develops.

According to the Financial Times, the EU has imported a record volume of liquefied natural gas from Russia.
The NGO Global Witness analyzed industry data for the first 7 months of this year and found that China, Belgium, and Spain were the top buyers of Russian LNG.
Overall imports have increased by 40 percent compared to the same period in 2021, prior to the commencement of the SMO and the imposition of additional sanctions.
The value of LNG imported between January and July, based on spot market prices, was €5.29 billion.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 An attempt to strike Feodosia with a Strizh drone
Late in the evening, Ukrainian formations again tried to strike at the Crimea : Feodosia once again became the target. The head of the Republic of Crimea, Sergei Aksyonov, said that a cruise missile was shot down, but this is not the case.
For the first time in a long time, the Armed Forces of Ukraine used the Tu-141 Strizh jet drone (the last time was on May 7) . The UAV was struck by the calculation of the 31st Air Force and Air Defense divisions, and the power line was damaged by shrapnel.
Judging by the place where the debris fell, the target of the Ukrainian formations was a substation in the city, which is not accidental. In this city, not only large oil reservoirs are located, but also a power plant that connects all the power lines of Crimea.
❗️The attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the peninsula have become more intense - sometimes SRGs, sometimes kamikaze drones, sometimes ballistic missiles. But the appearance of Strizh indicates that the enemy’s stocks of this type of drones have not yet run out, but they are used only for important targets.
