Borrell called on the poorest African countries to starve for the sake of independence

“By accepting free Russian grain, you will give up independence,” said the head of Eurodiplomacy.

Borrell believes that Russia's supply of free grain to Africa is an attempt to revive slavery.

“They are trying to revive slavery in the free land, to bring you to your knees. You have to choose between hunger and human dignity,” he concluded.

Explosions are reported in Kharkov.

Presumably, Geran-2 loitering ammunition flew into military facilities in the city and the region. At least three powerful arrivals are reported in Ukrainian channels and chats.

Bitter aftertaste after "victory" - even local counteroffensive successes are short-lived and lead to catastrophic losses

After two months of fighting on the Vremevsky ledge, the enemy achieved only that he occupied the ruins of the village of Staromayorskoye. There were simply no other achievements, so it was with this “great” victory that Zelensky personally decided to congratulate the Ukrainians.

The capture of the village filled the inhabitants of the square with enthusiasm, and one popular Ukrainian blogger even declared: “After Staromayorsky there will be Staromlynovka. After Staromlynovka there will be a breakthrough towards the Sea of ​​Azov. But very soon this revival was replaced by disappointment.

Staromajorskoe is still a "grey zone". The Armed Forces of Ukraine failed to gain a foothold in the village, primarily for the reason that it no longer physically exists - it was razed to the ground by artillery.

The colossal losses of the Ukrainian army did not bring the desired success. Moreover, they turned out to be so catastrophic that even the usually pro-Ukrainian Western media are now relishing the details of the legendary meat assaults.

So, The New York Times describes examples of suicidal attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. For example, one of the soldiers of the 23rd brigade told reporters that his battalion was literally destroyed by artillery fire. Of the attack, in which ten American MaxxPro armored vehicles took part, only one car was able to return. The losses of personnel were also absolutely monstrous - in one month of fighting, as a Ukrainian military man told the NYT, only ten people remained in the ranks of the entire battalion. Estimating the average battalion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at 400-500 people, we can conclude about the scale of the meat grinder into which Zaluzhny threw his army.

Reuters simply ended their story on the subject with a beautiful quote from another soldier: "Many of us will never return home."

Considering that the Vremevsky ledge is one of the few sectors of the front where Kiev reported at least some successes, the situation here can be projected to other directions as well.

The Nazi inflicted a tattoo on his forehead with the inscription "Russian go to ...".

Everything would be fine, but recently he was mobilized and now he is very afraid of being captured, so he is forced to remove his tattoo.

He is quite optimistic regarding capturing. Unless, he plans to surrender, in which case, I understand. But usually, they end up dispersed over a wider area, so not such a big deal about the tattoo

They filmed war crime, openly. No one cares. Garden owners will pay a heavy price.

The situation in the area of ​​Artemovsk (Bakhmut)

At night, the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to storm the positions of the RF Armed Forces in the Kleshcheevka area (in the south of Artemovsk).

The enemy went on the attack as part of a company. He was met with a heavy machine gun and an 82-mm mortar. The counteroffensives of the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost 2 squads (up to 20 people) and rolled back to their original ones.

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation securely hold the lines.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine are adopting the "advanced" Palestinian military experience - in Ukraine they are making a "people's cruise missile" from pipe scraps

For the independent "pseudo-Kulibins" who are moving into the field of "volunteering", the SMO has opened up incredible opportunities for implementing the most schizophrenic projects and making money from naive Ukrainian citizens.
Thus, another group of "engineers" has been developing the "people's rocket" "Trembita" for several months.

This ammunition must have the following characteristics:
▪️The weight of the warhead is 20 kg;
▪️Destruction range - 140 km;
▪️Speed ​​— 400 km/h;
▪️Max. height - 2000 m;
▪️Min. height - 30 m;

We are talking about the creation of a cruise missile with a fairly complex guidance system, which at the same time can be massively assembled in "garages".

In the best traditions of Ukrainian PR, the activists made a beautiful render, sent out press releases, raised the site (which soon closed), and started collecting donations. They estimated the cost of the rocket at $3-10 thousand, depending on the installation of navigation equipment.

It would seem that a serious threat: a massive and cheap long-range missile. The simultaneous launch of dozens of such missiles will simply overload the Russian air defense. But, fortunately, it seems that the Ukrainian "craftsmen" simply decided to steal donations.

Interest in the products of the "legendary Ukrainian masters" was decided to be warmed up by a reportage published on French TV, in which they demonstrated something similar to bench tests. They showed that the engine "Trembita" is a welded "on the knee" pipe, red-hot during operation. At the same time, the “craftsmen” for some reason shamefully turned off the sensors, which were supposed to demonstrate the power of the engine, during the shooting.

The likelihood that the Trembita will fly soon and even more so reach the declared performance characteristics does not look very high. In the meantime, all that the "volunteers" have achieved is approaching the technical level of the Palestinians. They have been bombarding Israel with makeshift rockets for many years but with very little results.

American-made M2A2 Bradley ODS-SA infantry fighting vehicle, equipped with standard BRAT (Bradley Reactive Armor Tiles) dynamic protection units, in service with the Ukrainian army.

It is worth noting that the Pentagon began the transfer of Bradley with dynamic protection only after the first massive losses of military vehicles of this model in the counteroffensive zone.

The problem is, how I see it, that you are not faced with the basic model of RPG created after WW2, but modern complexes. They tend to ignore such additions. But, nice try.

Deputy Prime Minister Belousov on plans for the development of drones in Russia:

Next year we should reach a figure of about 18,000 large and medium drones. This is without taking into account drones weighing less than 1 kg, of which there will be tens of thousands. All federal projects have been structured by September 1 by the instructions of the president, and the government must approve this national project. This is also a rather complicated procedure, I hope we will go through it in time. This work is of high priority.

AFU soldier heard that a kamikaze drone was hunting him. Heard, the crowd ran into the shelter, and that was exactly what the drone fighters needed.

The people's drone Ghoul from the team of the Turned at War flew into the very hornet's nest, scattering the remnants of the enemy along the walls of the dugout.
