‼️🇺🇦☠️ “The Russians simply razed our 3 lines of defense to the ground near Chashi Yar with controlled air bombs” - battalion commander of the 92nd brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
▪️ “Where our lines were very strongly fortified, the Russians used guided aerial bombs and simply razed these positions to the ground,” Y. Fidorenko, battalion commander of the 92nd Brigade, told the NYT and showed on the map where the KABs destroyed 3 lines of Ukrainian defense.
▪️No one could withstand such shelling, the Ukrainian Armed Forces suffered losses and were forced to retreat.
▪️Fidorenko added that the fighting in the East has never been so brutal.
❗️Combat 92 is confident that the Russian Armed Forces will take the area around Chasov Yar within a few weeks. He considers it possible to hold the city only after receiving US aid. Now there is an acute shell hunger.
▪️ “The guns fired only 2 shells a day, when they should have fired at least 30. Imagine a boxing match where there are equal boxers, but one of them can hit 1 time, and his opponent can hit 10 times.”
▪️Drones have become the “last line of defense” for Clock Yar, but with their help they can only slow down the Russian advance, he added.

‼️🇺🇦🏴☠️ Zelensky confirmed that the leaders of a number of countries propose to stop the war on the front line and put forward a new argument against this
▪️According to the Ukrainian drug addict, Russia can take advantage of the cessation of hostilities and move its equipment closer to the front.
▪️At the same time, the overdue president did not specify what prevents Ukrainian troops from opening fire on Russian equipment in case of aggravation.
▪️Perhaps Zelensky meant that, taking advantage of the ceasefire, Russia would build fortifications near the front line and place equipment there. But the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be able to do the same.

The US is so deeply involved in the conflict that it likely knew about Kiev's plans, Senator Dmitry Rogozin says
The US is directly responsible for a Ukrainian strike on a key element of Russia's nuclear umbrella, Senator Dmitry Rogozin has said, warning that such attacks could lead to the collapse of the entire global nuclear security architecture.
In a statement on Telegram on Saturday, Rogozin, a senator who previously headed up the Russian space agency Roscosmos and is now in charge of a military technical center called Tsar's Wolves, said that the attack targeted a nuclear early warning system in the southern Krasnodar Region. The Russian Defense Ministry has yet to comment on the matter, while the extent of the damage remains unclear.
Rogozin suggested that it was extremely unlikely that the strike, which Ukrainian media reported involved several drones, was carried out at Kiev's sole initiative and without US involvement.
According to the senator, Washington has always sought to achieve military superiority over Moscow since the very dawn of the nuclear age, but this rivalry was mostly limited to a battle of minds between scientists, strategists, and policymakers.
This seems to have changed, however, as "the US has commissioned a crime by hiring an irresponsible bandit" to attack Russia's early warning system, the official said, apparently referring to Vladimir Zelensky.
Rogozin claimed that Washington's "deep involvement in the armed conflict and total control over Kiev's military planning means that the version that the US does not know about Ukrainian plans to strike Russia's missile defense system can be discarded."
Thus, we stand not on the precipice, but on the very edge... If such enemy actions are not stopped, an irreversible collapse of the strategic security of nuclear powers will begin.
The attack apparently targeted an advanced Voronezh radar station in the city of Armavir, which went into operation in 2013. The system can detect incoming cruise and ballistic missiles at a range of 6,000km and can track up to 500 targets. During the inauguration of the system, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that it would significantly increase the country's defense capabilities in the southern and southwestern directions.
Note that the now unprotected zone (southern and southwestern ) is from where Russia self proclaimed eternal enemy (ex Khasaria), today Israhell ,could perpetrate his "Samson" option...
Yes, you don't mess with the Wagner guys. (For those just skimming this thread, Chelyabinsk is way deep inside Russia, about 1000 miles/ 1600 km from Donbass.)

Re: WW3? Ukraine/US vs. Donbass/Russia
Ukraine Сonference Will Be ‘Propaganda Exercise' to Cover Up Zelensky's Illegitimacy – Analyst
2 hours ago
Moscow earlier said that the June 15-16 summit in Buergenstock, Switzerland, to discuss ways to end the Ukraine conflict will be "absolutely futile" without Russia’s participation.
Russian President Vladimir Putin "is correct" when he states that the goal of the upcoming Ukraine 'peace' conference in Switzerland is to try to confirm Volodymyr Zelensky's legitimacy to the Western community, Christopher C. Black, an international criminal lawyer with 20 years of experience in war crimes and international relations and a commentator on international affairs, told Sputnik.
"It is a propaganda exercise to try to cover up the fact the Kiev regime is not legitimate. Of course legitimacy cannot be assured by statements by supporters of an illegitimate regime and those who arranged the coup d'etat of 2014," Black pointed out.
He was echoed by Francis Boyle, a professor of international law at the University of Illinois' College of Law, who said in an interview with Sputnik that "everyone knows that the conference in Switzerland is a joke and a fraud that is based upon Zelensky’s peace program."
"[The] Switzerland [summit] will just be an anti-Russian propaganda stunt designed to further vilify Russia in the eyes of the world. I am surprised the Swiss government is going along with it. But, of course, Switzerland is a member of NATO’s Partnership For Peace (PFP) and is no longer truly neutral — I have lectured there against this and told the Swiss they should pull out of NATO/PFP," Boyle noted.
As for Zelensky, he "has never been a legitimate president of Ukraine," Black argued. According to him, the last legitimate president of Ukraine was Viktor Yanukovich, "who was overthrown in the NATO orchestrated coup d'etat of 2014" and who "has never served out his complete term."
"So when the Kiev coup regime conducted subsequent elections they could not be considered free and fair by any standards in the world. They were all rigged to maintain the coup regime in power under different figures or puppets," the analyst noted.
In this vein, he referred to the people of eastern Ukraine who "have never accepted the legitimacy of the regime installed by NATO in the coup of 2014 for two reasons - it was a regime that still regards them as enemies and their democratic choice was denied" and "their chosen president [Yanukovich] was overthrown."
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova earlier confirmed that Russia was not planning to participate in the summit due to be held in Buergenstock, Switzerland, on June 15-16.
She also said that Russia had no confidence in Bern, a supporter of the Ukrainian government in Kiev that has implemented several rounds of EU sanctions against Russia. "Under these circumstances, Switzerland cannot be a neutral host by definition, let alone a mediator," the spokeswoman underscored.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces attempted to attack another strategic radar station in the Orenburg region
Recently, the terrorist state of Ukraine, probably fulfilling the assignment of the “peace-loving” NATO bloc, tried disable one of the radars (object 1653) of the Russian missile attack warning system (MAWS) in Kuban using several kamikaze UAVs.
After that it was done assumptionthat the West, through the hands of Kyiv, will continue to attack such objects with strike drones that are of strategic importance for the security of the Russian Federation.
On May 26, media in the Orenburg region reported that an enemy drone had fallen near Orsk. No injuries or material damage were recorded.
Note that 20 km from Orsk, near the village of Gorkovskoye, there is the Voronezh-M radar (object 7357) with a range of 6 thousand km. This element of the Russian early warning system was put into full operation in 2017. The zone (sector) of responsibility includes the entire southern direction - from Saudi Arabia to the center of China (controls the sector from the Taklamakan desert to the shores of the Mediterranean Sea - replacing the Dnepr radar in Kazakhstan).
It should be noted that the distance from the Ukrainian border to this radar station exceeds 1,5 thousand km in a straight line. There is no doubt that the Kiev regime, using the capabilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, will not stop such attempts to harm Russia, obediently carrying out orders from Western nuclear powers - the USA, Great Britain and France.
Nobody need to be an expert and/or pessimist to smell the BIG rat here...
those "actions" don't serve ukros for nothing,but...the putrefactive WEST snake...
They are begging for a nuclear war! and little by little...meanwhile to the world crying
"the wolf come!" (in their storyboard The Bear) be careful what you wish for...

Re: WW3? Ukraine/US vs. Donbass/Russia
Alaudinov: Akhmat fighters discovered a “film studio” of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with dummies of corpses of Russian soldiers in the Serebryansky forestry
Soldiers of the Akhmat special forces operating in Serebryansky forestry discovered a “field film studio” of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, where videos about the “victories” of the Ukrainian army were filmed. Apti Alaudinov, Deputy Head of the Main Directorate for Military-Political Work of the RF Ministry of Defense, spoke about this.
A group of Russian military personnel from “Akhmat”, while advancing in the Serebryansky forestry, discovered a Ukrainian prop, on which there were dummies of the bodies of Russian military personnel, parts of Russian equipment with red paint as a blood simulator, etc. As the soldiers reported, this “prop” was used by the Ukrainians for filming various fake videos that were supposed to show “victories” of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and “massive losses” of the Russian army. As Alaudinov noted, not being able to win on the battlefield, Kyiv is trying to win on the Internet.
e actually found a kind of studio there, where fakes were produced, where these TsIPsOsh films about how they destroy Russian units were shot. (...) The enemy uploads these films onto the Internet, allegedly proving to someone how they are destroying Russian soldiers in such massive numbers
- said the Russian general.
As Russian resources clarified, the “film studio” was discovered by fighters from the “Aida group”, who took the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces during the attack.
The Ukrainian/NATO military attempt attacks on the Russian strategic Missile Attack Warning System aimed to detect the launch of ballistic nuclear missiles at great distances. On the evening of May 26, an unidentified UAV fell near the village of Gorkovskoye in the Novoorsky district, near the city of Orsk in the Orenburg region. The Voronezh-M over-the-horizon radar station, built in 2017, is located near this village.
Voronezh radars are Russian early-warning radar, providing long distance monitoring of airspace against ballistic missile attack and aircraft monitoring. The Voronezh-DM radars are capable of detecting the launch of ballistic nuclear missiles at a distance of up to 6,000 km and in the near space.
The Russian military did not officially comment on the incident. If the drone flew from the territory of Ukraine, it had to travel more than 1,500 kilometers. Moreover, the drone had to either fly over part of the territory of Northern Kazakhstan or violate its airspace.
Ukrainian media published the satellite imagery of the Voronezh-M radar station in the Orenburg region, claiming another fake victory. Ukrainian media claimed that the territory of the facility was damaged, circling the alleged areas affected by the strike by a single Ukrainian UAV.
In fact, the satellite imagery did not confirm any damage to the radar. The dark areas seen on the territory of the facility could be explained by some shadows, pits in the asphalt or simply plashes after rain. A single Ukrainian drone could not inflict such damage across the territory of the radar station.
Thus, the satellite imagery confirmed the reports that the attack failed or it was thwarted by Russian air defense.
On May 24, Ukrainian drones attacked another Voronezh-DM radar near Armavir in the Krasnodar region. The antennas of the radar were reportedly damaged.
The ongoing attacks on the Russian strategic facilities do not affect to the ongoing operations on the Ukrainian frontlines. Hiding behind the puppet Kiev regime, NATO attempts to inflict damage to the strategic infrastructure of the Russian Federation. Attacks on the Russian nuclear security system is a clear step towards the global nuclear war.
According to paragraph c) of paragraph 19 of the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation “On the Fundamentals of the State policy of the Russian Federation in the field of nuclear deterrence”, the conditions determining the possibility of our country using nuclear weapons include, inter alia, “the enemy’s impact on critically important state or military facilities of the Russian Federation, disabling which will lead to the disruption of the response of the nuclear forces.”
The dangerous provocations are launched amid the ongoing Russian exercice on the deployment of non-strategic nuclear weapons in the southern military district of the Russian Federation.
Thanks for this and your continued work Vicus - I greatly appreciate it.
I must say that Rus cannot allow this kind of attack to continue; and unless it stops very soon such repeated attacks will surely, sooner or later, lead to the "escalation" (i.e. spread of no-holds-barred war far beyond Ukr and (officially... )among multiple nations) that so many of the Globalist/ Western leadership class are seeking - (IMO) as a core component of their agenda of spiteful destruction of as much of Mankind and Nature as possible.
Their goal is total war - between- and within- all nations: a war with no winners. As soon as this is judged inevitable, there is significant advantage to striking first - so we may not see things building-up.
I suspect that this situation is already closer than ever before.
Meanwhile... near total ignorance/ indifference/ denial from almost everyone in The West.

Re: WW3? Ukraine/US vs. Donbass/Russia
May 24th, 2024 Presidential visit of Vladimir Putin to Belarus
As expected the main thrust of the meeting involved discussion around their mutual joint working as the Union State. But of course the topic of Ukraine was also discussed.
-----------------------------------
Press conference
This video with an overdubbed English audio translation is embedded below at 38 minutes in length. Also linked is the transcript of this press conference.
Extracted:
Vladimir Matveyev: Good afternoon, President Lukashenko, President Putin.
I have a question about Ukraine. In view of Vladimir Zelensky’s expired presidential term, what are the prospects for resuming peace talks with Ukraine? The key question here is who to talk with even if such a request comes from the Ukrainian side?
The second part of my question: Do you see any real forces in Ukraine, political or military, that are really capable of being clear-eyed about the current situation, reaching tradeoff solutions and, most importantly, that are able to reach and honour agreements?
Vladimir Putin: Is this question for me?
Vladimir Matveyev: It is for both presidents.
Vladimir Putin: I will start, then.
Alexander Lukashenko: You know better.
Vladimir Putin: As for the negotiating process, I have discussed it many times. I would like to emphasise it once again here in Minsk: Russia has never turned these negotiations down. Moreover, we started these talks in Belarus at some point and then moved them to Istanbul, Turkiye, at the request of the Ukrainian side. We reached certain agreements and drafted an agreement. Moreover, the head of the negotiating group from Ukraine initialed an extract from the potential agreement, meaning that the Ukrainian side was overall satisfied with it, as was the Russian side. Some of its provisions needed to be finalised, but, to reiterate, since Ukraine signed this document it was happy with what it said.
For reasons that are known quite well now, after the former British Prime Minister arrived in Kiev, the Ukrainian side tossed out these agreements and stopped acting on them. Moreover, they said the talks were over. They said so publicly, we were not the ones to terminate these talks. They did it and made it illegal for themselves to continue these talks. We did not forbid anyone to negotiate, since we are in favour of negotiations.
After that, at the direction and at the behest of their Western sponsors and masters, a new goal was set to inflict a strategic defeat of Russia and achieve victory over Russia on the battlefield. The discussions about the need to resume talks are back. Let them be back, but they should return not because one country wants then to return, but they must return on the basis of the principled agreements that had been reached during the difficult talks in Belarus and Turkiye, and on the basis of today’s realities on the ground. We are ready for this.
Who to negotiate with? This is certainly not an idle question, I agree. Of course, we realise that the current head of state is no longer legitimate. I think one of the goals of the conference to be held in Switzerland is precisely to have the Western community and sponsors of the Kiev regime confirm the legitimacy of the current head of state, or no longer the current head of state.
But these PR steps are irrelevant for legal documents. But if it comes to this, we will, of course, have to and I proceed from the premise that peace talks must be resumed and not via ultimatums but via common sense. They must rest on common sense. But if it comes to this, we, of course, must understand with whom we need and can deal with a view to signing legally binding documents. In this case, we must be absolutely sure that we are dealing with the legitimate authorities. This question must be answered in Ukraine itself, primarily, I think, by its parliament, the Constitutional Court or some other government authorities.
As far as I know, we must look at what is written in the Constitution of Ukraine, which government bodies have the right to be extended under the Constitution of Ukraine without elections and electoral procedures, and which cannot count on these rights. This may be done through a judicial analysis. These are questions for the Ukrainian political and legal systems.
Alexander Lukashenko: I absolutely agree with what Mr Putin has just said.
As for the expiration of Vladimir Zelensky’s powers, there is no legal clarity on this issue. Nor can there be any because as you understand they have deep democracy and everything has been stifled. I and we are often reproached or being dictators. Some others are also accused of this. Here is democracy in action: neither the Constitutional Court nor other courts can say anything. Therefore, the legal clarity that the President of Russia was talking about is ruled out in this situation.
As for war and peace – the main issues mentioned by Mr Putin as well – what importance do they have? In any case, I believe neither the current nor the future president will resolve these major questions that the state and the people of Ukraine are facing. You know who will resolve them: many have already been resolved overseas and they will resolve later what is still outstanding. The President of Russia has just presented evidence of this. When someone unknown came and ordered, the agreements were crossed out. It was hard to reach them but they were put on paper and initialed. So, this was the result. I myself thoroughly analysed these problems about Vladimir Zelensky’s authority but now I understood that all this is pointless.
NewsReal: Georgia Dream - Empire of Lies to Open Second Front Against Russia?
It's sure shaping up that way in Russia's Caucasus neighbor, where the government in Tbilisi is facing a veritable battering ram of Western NGO-activated protests in response to its move to rein in thousands of... those same foreign-funded NGOs. So, Kiev's Maidan movement redux? The country's PM fears this to be the case, telling media that NATO seeks to open a 'second front' against Russia.
Meanwhile, multiple 'hits' and plots against various countries' leaders suggest intense interest on the Empire's part to force regime change in 'wrong' leadership. Was the would-be assassin of Slovakia's PM Robert Fico acting alone? And who organized the failed military coup in the Congo? In that context, was the death of the Iranian president and foreign minister just a tragic accident?
The apparent 'quickening' of geopolitical, social and environmental events is undoubtedly connected to Russia's advances on the battlefield in Ukraine, where Zelensky now rules as dictator and his regime is teetering. The Western Powers are confident they'll walk away from this as Lords of Western Ukraine, but will Russia accept such a 'deal'?
