Archangel Spetsnaz:
We clear the forest from the enemy.
According to the classics, fighters are completely unmotivated for active defense. This is not the first time we use one trick, after which they surrender in entire squads.
And please note that the majority go on foot, there are certainly wounded, art training has done its job, but basically everyone is safe.
Airborne soldiers know a lot about persuading the enemy to lay down their arms and leave the senseless slaughter.
We work further.

๐ท๐บ ๐บ๐ฆ Orekhovsky area
situation as of 16.00 August 3, 2023
๐ปEarly in the morning, enemy infantry groups under the cover of two forest belts north of Rabotino tried to rush through the minefields, where they were met by marines of the 810 Marine Brigade of the RF Armed Forces . As a result of the ensuing skirmish, the Ukrainian formations retreated.
Otherwise, the situation along the contact line has slightly stabilized. This is due to really large losses in manpower. One of the units of the 47th brigade of the 9th AK of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was withdrawn to Novgorod-Volynsky for restoration.
๐ปAt the same time, the transfer of reinforcements to the forward positions continues. Columns of military equipment were noted near Orekhovo , Malaya Tokmachka , Belogorye and Krasnaya Krinitsa .
Also, closer to the front line in Tavriyskoye and Zheleznyanskoye, self-propelled and howitzer divisions of 116 and 117 mechanized brigades of 10 AK were pulled together. The movement of artillery to the LBS indicates an imminent intensification of hostilities.

โก๏ธ Report about a series of explosions in Kherson.
Apparently, the artillery of the RF Armed Forces and aviation continue to destroy the ammunition depots of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and places of temporary deployment on the right bank of the Dnieper. There are also reports that Russian tactical aviation is also operating in the Berislav area.

The first export effect of Russia's withdrawal from the grain deal was not long in coming. Egypt purchased 300 thousand tons of Russian wheat at a price of $250 per ton (FOB). At that, Russian grain accounted for five out of six batches purchased. The sixth was Romanian grain from Viterra at $249.
The price turned out to be pleasant for everyone. After Russia's withdrawal from the grain deal, quotations rose, and the discount on Russian grain relative to competitors decreased, which cannot but please domestic exporters. The deal also turned out to be favorable for Egypt, as it was possible to buy wheat at the lower end of the market range. For example, prices for French wheat at the tender of the state-owned company GASC started from $270, and for Ukrainian grain from Romania - from $269.

Confidence is waning: The US credit rating has begun its downward march (source: ).
๐น Rating agency Fitch has downgraded the long-term ratings of the US from "AAA," a "premium" rating, to "AA+." The agency's report explains that they expect the budgetary situation to deteriorate over the next three years. Washington has allowed high levels of debt in the public administration sector to persist and grow. There has also been a decline in the quality and standards of governance compared to countries with comparable "AA" and "AAA" ratings over the past two decades. This includes an extremely heightened debate on the public debt ceiling, last-minute decision-making, a lack of medium-term fiscal space, and a complex budget process. Interestingly, Fitch expects a moderate recession in the US economy.
๐น Reading this report reminds us of old, very old, and more recent posts about the crisis of the expert community in the West, the incompetence of managers, and the presence of hardly nominal people in politics.
By the way, the passage about the deterioration of the quality of governance over 20 years implies one extremely unpleasant thing - for these two decades, Washington has been relying on the credit of trust from rating agencies and the fact that the dollar is the world's reserve currency.

The Bank of Great Britain, as expected, raised its key rate to 5.25% today.
It warned that its fight (smile) against inflation may require it to tighten borrowing conditions for an extended period. The current rate level is a 15-year high.
The Bank has cut its growth forecast for the next two years and raised its medium-term inflation forecast, signaling a gloomy backdrop for the next general election due in early 2025.

The Energy Ministry announced that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will extend the voluntary production cut of one million barrels per day that took effect in July for another month, including September.
And perhaps it will extend it further. And perhaps it will deepen it.
In fact, the Kingdom's production in September 2023 will be about 9 million barrels per day. This cut is in addition to the voluntary cut previously announced by the Kingdom in April 2023, which will last until the end of December 2024.

The rapprochement between Russia and Niger is causing the West to become more dependent on Moscow.
According to Bloomberg, if Niger falls into Russia's sphere of influence, the world will be even more reliant on Moscow for nuclear energy.
Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan are among the world's leading uranium producers, accounting for about half of the world's uranium reserves. If Russia and Niger are included, their combined share would increase to 60 per cent or more.
Moreover, Russia itself possesses uranium deposits and controls almost 50% of the world's uranium enrichment capacity.

Hmmm... what's up with these all of a sudden? Are the watchmakers on strike?
The Swiss industrial activity index has collapsed. They promised 44, but it ended up being 38.5.

๐ท๐บ US recognizes Russia as an example
Russia's ability to withstand sanctions imposed by Western countries will be the subject of analysts' scrutiny in the future, the Wall Street Journal reports.
"How Russia managed to avoid collapse and achieve some growth during the year despite an economic blockade by the West will be a case study in the future for analysts pondering when sanctions make sense as a policy tool," the publication says.
Nicholas Mulder, a professor of history at Cornell University, said the West's attempt to impose sanctions on a country as large as Russia could be an instructive example in the long run.
"Russia's sheer size makes it impossible to cut it off from the global economy. It remains a major source of raw materials for developed economies, and for developing countries it is the most important supplier of food and fertilizers," the newspaper quoted Mulder as saying.

Russia has repeatedly said it will cope with the sanctions pressure. Moscow has noted that the West lacks the courage to recognize the failure of sanctions against it.
Note: uh. Americans... there's this.... here's the thing. Your Secretary Blinken was a young man who studied the sanctions war between the US and the West against the USSR.... and yes, he must have known the past experience of sanctions.

The Economist's May 2022 cover reads, "THE COMING FOOD CATASTROPHE," accompanied by illustrations of ears with skulls to enhance the effect.
As some might say, the Western world brought this upon themselves due to their greed and arrogance.
-However, can someone explain why none of the Russian guarantees were fulfilled or addressed?

situation as of 17.00 August 3, 2023
For several days, intense fighting has been going on in the Novoselovsky area. The units of the Russian army are attacking enemy strongholds, operating from Kuzemovka and trying to take up important tactical positions to advance deep into the defense.
According to unconfirmed reports, Russian troops were able to advance north of Novoselovsky. Clashes also continue to the south near the plantations adjacent to the village.
At the same time, advanced reconnaissance groups of the RF Armed Forces are conducting raids on the lines of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the village itself. The line of control in this area is not known for certain due to the fog of war, at the moment the fighting continues.
