RT @AndrewPerpetua: Every small donation helps a lot. In fact, if everyone who sees this tweet donates $1, it would probably finish the fundraiser within minutes 😃

We are fundraising to provide Khartiia with critical transport vans. Logistics keeps the front moving. Please support the mission below.

You can donate here: https://www.paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=RJR9RTMJSAULN

Vehicles are a commodity. We've tracked vehicle losses in Ukraine for years, including light-skinned vehicles such as vans and pickup trucks. Those who follow us know and understand the attrition rates.

The scale is immense. In the first 22 days of April alone, we tracked 931 losses in this category (cars, pickups, SUVs, and vans, combined).

As our followers know, video analysis captures only a fraction of the total losses. While some of these vehicles are ultimately recovered and repaired, many are abandoned, stripped for parts, or destroyed. This is the reality of war.

Support for Ukraine means funding and supplying these vehicles.

Why Vans? Cargo In → Casualties Out
Inbound: Vans protect sensitive cargo, such as electronics, from dust, mud, and rain.

Outbound: Once goods are delivered, these vehicles provide a protected, enclosed space to evacuate the wounded for treatment.

The Goal: $100,000
We are raising funds to purchase, repair, and prep vans for Khartiia and another secret special unit.

The budget covers the purchase price, mud tires, spare parts, and technical preparation required for front-line deployment.

This is the first fundraiser spearheaded by my data collection and mapping project, Ukraine Daily Update, in association with volunteers at Tochnyi. To ensure total transparency and professional logistics, we are partnering with Liberty Ukraine, which will handle the backend and 501(c)(3) status.

We know our audience understands the scale of this need. We hope those who are able will donate to help us get these vans to the front as promptly as possible.

The New Iran's Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA):

The Islamic Republic of Iran has defined the regulatory jurisdiction for the management of the Hormuz_Strait as follows:

“The line connecting Kuh-e Mubarak in Iran to the south of Fujairah in the UAE at the eastern entrance of the Strait, to the line connecting the tip of Qeshm Island in Iran to Umm Al-Quwain in the UAE at the western entrance.”

Transit through this area for the purpose of passing through the Hormuz strait requires coordination with, and authorization from, the Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA).

Ukrainian Defense Forces are scaling up deep strikes on Russian logistics at ranges of 100–150+ km, and for some reason, the Russians aren't too thrilled about it. https://twitter.com/wartranslated/status/2057201959875096780/video/1

Iran’s new definition of “managing” the Strait of Hormuz effectively extends its claimed regulatory zone into parts of UAE and Omani waters.

Israeli Minister of National SecurityBen Gvir is under fire, both domestically and internationally, over a video showing him visiting a detention center where the Gaza Freedom Flotilla members were being held and processed. The video shows him arguing with detainees while also seemingly smiling at the rough handling of many of the detainees. World leaders and decision-makers from nations around the globe, including Italy, the U.S., Qatar, the Netherlands, and others have condemned the video and Minister Gvir himself. Additionally, a number of nations have summoned the Israeli ambassadors in their respective countries over the treatment of flotilla members from their countries.

Israeli officials say Iran cannot quickly rebuild its missile arsenal due to heavy damage to launchers and production facilities. While Tehran is working to reopen tunnels hit by Israeli strikes, a senior Israeli official warned Iran may eventually accelerate missile production, potentially forcing Israel to strike again, according to Ynet.
