Neocon warmonger Marco Rubio blows a gasket about Macron's recent statements that Europe must seek to be more sovereign and stop being the vassals of the US, to decrease dependency on USD and to stay away from conflicts that are not theirs.

Ukraine’s missiles and ammunition could run out “within weeks,” according to a large leak of classified military documents.
One of the documents marked “Secret” shows how Ukraine’s Soviet-era S-300 air defence systems will be depleted by 2 May if the Ukrainian forces continue to use the ammunition at the current rate.

Zelensky has indicated that they have had to change some of their military plans.

Admin note: Russia needs to consider that everything coming out of the West is propaganda to suit an agenda.

In Artyomovsk, a powerful arrival was caught on footage recorded by a Ukrainian militant.

❗️The head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin spoke about the upcoming counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. He noted that the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is expected by forces of about 200-400 thousand people. He indicated that it should not be underestimated.

The Ukrainian BTR-4E suddenly got hot.

The footage shows how an armoured personnel carrier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, embraced in flames, explodes ammunition.

Shoigu flew to Belarus and met with Lukashenka.
Issues of ensuring the security of Belarus, the threat of possible aggression against Belarus and the combat coordination of the Russian-Belarusian joint military group are discussed.

The Ministry of Defense of China publishes new footage of large-scale exercises in the Taiwan direction, during which aviation fired electronic missiles at targets on the island.

The crew of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Artemovsk left the car and is filming how our artillery smashes it.

Wall Street Journal opinion on the cost of all natural resources by country.

If anyone had any doubts about what this war was about can doubt no more…

The accuracy is impressive and for the Ukrainians on the receiving end it came out of nowhere.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Arrival of a guided bomb to Ukrainian positions on a waste heap near Avdiivka.

Decomposed into molecules ACS 2S3 "Acacia" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, presumably the work of shock UAVs "kamikaze"

🇷🇺🇺🇦 It is reported that the commander of the Bakhmut grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Syrsky reported to Zelensky about the loss of control over two more blocks adjacent to the Bakhmut railway station, they will be able to hold the city of the Armed Forces of Ukraine for another week, there will simply be no further opportunity. Russian troops are simply leveling the fortified area in the west of Bakhmut, which was created by the Armed Forces of Ukraine in high-rise buildings, with the ground, which leads to heavy losses among the personnel. Syrsky himself complained about this earlier.
