#Ukraine #Zelensky reckless gambit in #Kursk region
🇺🇦TG:
Military expert and analyst Oleg Starikov stated that the danger for Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region is that the Russians are using counter-terrorist tactics, not military ones.
According to the expert, the advanced detachments of the Ukrainian Armed Forces infantry are at risk of being surrounded.
On the second day, on the 7th (of August), a counter-terrorist operation was declared in those territories. That is, not the military, because for them the bridgehead is small, but special forces units will be deployed against the forward units. So, the most important thing: you can't go far, because as soon as you break away, you can be immediately destroyed.
Starikov said that it is necessary to systematize actions at the front, but the authorities, instead of paying attention to extremely important issues, are engaged in PR for the Kursk campaign. According to the analyst, after Zelensky's dubious comments recalling the tragedy of the Kursk submarine and Irina Vereshchuk's statements about a humanitarian corridor for residents of the Kursk region, the second stage of the operation began.
I don't understand the military goal, but I do understand the political goal. So we achieved the initial stage and now the second one is underway - this is a political victory. Because war is not a war on the LBS itself, war is a big concept, including politics, diplomacy.
He believes that Ukraine has demonstrated its desire to resist and, in essence, by going on the offensive on Russian territory, has changed the paradigm and altered the information background.
Now the dangers that exist: I see and fear, I always say this, that this dizziness from success and euphoria are one of the reasons for our failures! I now notice that the top political leadership, the military - no, the political leadership has already begun to observe this. If you underestimate the enemy and engage in "over-confidence", this can lead to the same consequences that are now in other parts of the front!
Starikov emphasized that the military leadership is minding its own business and everything that the military has achieved at the cost of their lives will be turned into a senseless waste of human resources by the ill-considered decisions of the political leadership.
Because three brigades entered, do you think they didn't die? That's stupid! Because look how many combat vehicles, tanks were destroyed! Consider that 2-3 people burned in each one, and that's only for combat vehicles, and how many more?!

Russian MFA Spox Maria Zakharova: Together with the US, the UK has claimed the role of the mastermind behind what they called the Russia containment policy.
They were also the ones who launched a crusade against Russia’s sovereign assets.
Truth be said, they learned to target other countries with these measures as well by stealing and illegally confiscating things which do not belong to them.
This is what their ideology is all about. They have done this many times without anyone offering them any resistance.

#Ukraine #Pokrovsk
Three companies of the second battalion of the 15th operational brigade of the National Guard, led by their commanders, refused to carry out combat missions near Pokrovsk.
A fighter from one of these units, Vladislav, told Strana about this.
"In mid-August, our second battalion was transferred to Pokrovsk. We immediately took up positions. But the problem is that we arrived to Pokrovsk with a huge personnel shortage. After a week of fighting, there were even fewer of us left - 10-13 people in a company, including commanders (the average staffing level of a company is 80-100 people - Ed.). Having taken up positions near Pokrovsk, we were faced with the incompetence of the command: there is no communication with neighboring units, the connection is extremely poor, there is no clear understanding of the positions, whose they are. It got to the point that we are ordered to move to positions, but no one knows who is in them. Sometimes these positions are already occupied by the Russians. We simply physically cannot hold the defense at positions with such a shortage of personnel: for every one of ours there are 30 Russians! The Russians are constantly attacking, going out to storm battalions with the support of heavy equipment. And in a week of fighting, we only had one armored personnel carrier go out to support us once fire. The Russians are advancing in a continuous stream along the railway in the Mirnograd area. In the planting, they are visible only from 30-40 meters, everything is very densely overgrown.
The extremely poor coordination and lack of communications is evidenced by the fact that one of the units covered us from the flank, but they retreated under the pressure of the Russians, without informing us. As a result, one of our groups was never able to leave the battle. Now we do not know where they are - were they killed or captured. Therefore, three of our companies from those transferred to Pokrovsk refused to carry out combat orders. The authorities arrived and suggested that those who refused to carry out the BR (combat order - Ed.) take a step forward. Everyone who remained, led by the commanders, took a step. The authorities filmed it on video and left. Now we do not know what will happen next, we are waiting for the consequences. At the same time, all the refusers have been fighting since the beginning of the war, all are battle-hardened, combat-ready. But there are simply too few of us left,” the soldier said.

#Ukraine #Zelensky wonder weapons/game changer and his reckless gambit in #Russia #Kursk region.
Military Watch Magazine reports:
20 of the 31 Abrams tanks delivered by the US to Ukraine have already been destroyed, and their replacement is unlikely.
The publication reports that an M1A1 Abrams tank, which is in service with the Ukrainian army, was destroyed in the Kursk region of Russia.
Previously, Abrams tanks were used in the Avdiivka area, and in the Kursk region, its destruction was the first in the region.
Since the delivery to Ukraine at the end of 2023, the total losses of Abrams tanks have reached 20 out of 31, and all losses occurred in the last six months.
At the same time, it is noted that the replacement of Leopard tanks comes from all over Europe, primarily from Spain, but it is unlikely that the United States will make further deliveries of Abrams tanks.
The publication also writes that Ukrainian servicemen are dissatisfied with the technical characteristics of the tank, including vulnerability to Russian fire.

Wow! Didn't expect it from western media!
Zelensky's recent military incursion into Russia marks a departure from the realm of diplomacy and into the territory of strategic blunder.
This reckless gambit, more akin to a desperate stunt worthy of a second-rate actor than a seasoned statesman, diverts critical resources from the primary battlefield while offering negligible strategic gain.
More critically, this diversion of forces from the main theater of war is a huge strategic miscalculation

▪️Western media admits Ukraine has dangerously overextended itself through its Kursk incursion;
▪️Western media claims Russia is unable to use glide bombs in Kursk because of poor “air-control systems,” however, glide bombs are used primarily to break heavy fortifications which the Western media admits Ukraine is not building in Kursk;
▪️Despite claims that Russia’s response was “disjointed,” Ukraine’s Kursk operation has become a liability, costing it irreversibly lost territory along the actual line of contact;
▪️The more territory Ukraine attempts to hold in Kursk, the more troops and equipment it must divert from the actual line of contact;
▪️Western media reports admit that Russian progress in the Donbass has accelerated since the Kursk incursion began;
▪️Ukraine is not building the type of fortifications required to hold onto Kursk in the long-term with Western officials/analysts admitting that once Russia brings in sufficient reinforcements, uprooting Ukraine is inevitable;
▪️US military assistance to Ukraine continues to shrink, with the most recent package featuring the same items (without quantities noted) as previous packages, suggesting the US is drawing from its insufficient monthly production;

Pavel Durov has been quite open about being targeted by intelligence agencies from various countries, as he discussed in his recent interview with @TuckerCarlson. In response, Telegram's leadership has devised a specific plan of action in case Durov himself is arrested.
This plan was agreed upon by Durov and his deputy, Dmitry Butkin. Should they be arrested by French authorities in Paris, the plan will automatically come into effect the following morning.
The plan ensures that Telegram's development team will make the necessary decisions to keep the company operational and continue to fulfill its objectives.

Tucker Carlson (X):
Pavel Durov left Russia when the government tried to control his social media company, Telegram. But in the end, it wasn’t Putin who arrested him for allowing the public to exercise free speech. It was a western country, a Biden administration ally and enthusiastic NATO member, that locked him away. Pavel Durov sits in a French jail tonight, a living warning to any platform owner who refuses to censor the truth at the behest of governments and intel agencies. Darkness is descending fast on the formerly free world.
