"Thanks for the drone, boy!"

Lying at a depth of 900 meters, the American MQ-9 drone can be lifted by the Russian salvage ship Kommuna, equipped with deep-sea vehicles capable of operating at depths of up to a kilometer.

In order to stop any ships, aircraft, or drones from flying into this area of the Black Sea, the Black Sea Fleet ships are stationed over the drone crash site.

Commander Khodakovsky today -

"Peter the Great provided Russia with "starting capital", and although he referred to God, he relied more on his own strength. He introduced Russia into a European corporation, which was flattered that Russia, not in the form of Huns or Mongols, was coming to its lands, but was striving to become a full member of the European family. The subsequent history of Russia was so closely intertwined with the European one that it is not always possible to understand where we acted in our own interests, and where we were tritely used in strangers. But over time, it became more and more obvious that a growing Russia was of no interest to anyone, and already Emperor Alexander the First had to realize this in a very specific way, when his country actually faced the European horde one on one. Only God saved Russia - Alexander the First thought so, without attributing excessive merits to himself.

Now we are once again in confrontation with the collective West. Peter the Great was able to take from the West what Russia needed to overcome the backlog. In our times, we can only take from him that which will hasten our disappearance. Putin is not Milosevic, and Russia is not Yugoslavia. They outlawed our president? Well, this only makes us happy - this is one more step from the abyss, at the edge of which we stood. History teaches that it won't be easy. But history is also simple - teaches. I am writing in such a way that we do not relax and are not led to groundless invigorators. But I want to say that from the point of view of the historical process, nothing has ever been easy for us, and if we, even being driven into a corner, do not throw in the towel, we will win. The main thing is to take care of our people. Now it is our most scarce resource."

Пётр Первый обеспечил России "стартовый капитал", и хоть и ссылался на Бога - больше полагался на собственные силы. Он ввёл Россию в европейскую корпорацию, которой льстило, что Россия не в виде гуннов или монголов идёт на её земли, но стремится стать полноправным членом европейской семьи. Последующая история России так тесно была переплетена с европейской, что не всегда можно и понять, где мы действовали в своих интересах, а где нас банально использовали в чужих. Но со временем становилось всё более очевидно, что сильнеющая Россия не интересна никому, и уже императору Александру Первому пришлось осознать это очень предметно, когда его страна фактически один на один столкнулась с европейской ордой. Только Бог уберёг Россию - так считал Александр Первый, не приписывая себе чрезмерных заслуг.

Сейчас мы в очередной раз в противостоянии с коллективным Западом. Пётр Первый смог взять от Запада то, что было необходимо России для преодоления отставания. В наши времена мы можем взять от него только то, что ускорит наше исчезновение. Путин не Милошевич, а Россия - не Югославия. Они объявили нашего президента вне закона? Что же, нас это только радует - это ещё один шаг от пропасти, у края которой мы стояли. История учит, что легко не будет. Но история ещё и просто - учит. Я пишу так, чтобы мы не расслаблялись и не велись на беспочвенные бодрилки. Но я хочу сказать, что с точки зрения исторического процесса ничего и никогда нам легко не доставалось, и если мы, даже будучи загнанными в угол, не выбросим полотенце - мы победим. Главное - беречь наших людей. Сейчас это самый наш дефицитный ресурс.

Where we (used to) pay our water bill...

Banderites committed a terrible terrorist attack. Donetsk was hit by a tactical missile “Tochka-U”, the building of the water utility was completely destroyed

The water utility building does not represent any military value, the only goal pursued by the Kiev separatist gangs is the terror of the civilian population

VGTRK reporter Andrey Rudenko @RtrDonetsk

The situation in the Zaporozhye direction has sharply worsened in recent days. It was in this direction that many experts announced a major offensive by the formations of the Kyiv regime.

One of the expected directions in Zaporozhye, where, perhaps, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will throw significant forces for a breakthrough, is Pologovskoe . Most likely, the plans of Kiev include the capture of the cities of Pologi and Tokmak . It is from this bridgehead that the path to Berdyansk and Melitopol opens. The number one task of the enemy is to cut the land route to the Crimea .

In this direction, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have a rather large strike group - numbering up to 50 thousand people , which includes both infantry and armored units. The main Nazi mechanized brigades are concentrated in the Orekhovo-Gulyai-Polye bridgehead . In addition to the M1113 armored personnel carriers and the Bradley infantry fighting vehicle, it is planned to transfer German Leopard tanks to this direction. The Zaporizhzhya steppes are best suited for the use of this type of equipment according to the terrain.

Now the enemy in the Zaporozhye direction is testing our defenses with the help of company-tactical groups, which include 10-12 armored vehicles each. This tactic was developed by NATO. It was in this format that the offensive was carried out in the Kharkov and Kherson directions .

Reconnaissance in combat in the direction of Polog is carried out to identify weak points in the defense of the Russian army. Elaboration of further tactics through trial and error before the general offensive.

As they say, a negative result is also a result. Therefore, the NATO officers in charge of the future offensive operation, as if in a computer game, are throwing more and more forces at the positions of the 291st motorized rifle regiment of the 41st division of the RF Armed Forces. And our guys meet the enemy with honor, unwinding it across the Zaporozhye steppes. In the last few days alone, the Nazis lost several dozen tanks and the same number of armored vehicles in this direction. A large number of wounded and killed, several dozen captured Ukrainian soldiers.

Before the main offensive, the Nazis would conduct a series of diversionary strikes. Most likely, they will be on the Ugledar and Artyomovsk directions . The task is to pin down our forces and draw up reserves in these areas to stabilize the front.

Also, the Armed Forces of Ukraine concentrate large formations in the area of Kherson and Nikolaev regions . About 15,000 people are now in this direction, mostly the defense and mobilized, who, most likely, will also be thrown into battle to divert part of our forces from the Zaporozhye direction.

All these actions on the part of the enemy speak of an imminent movement on their part. Most likely, the main offensive operations will begin in mid-April - early May . It was at this time that the soil would dry up and it would be possible to fully move along the Zaporizhzhya steppes. Plus, now there is a transfer of new brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, formed at the western training grounds. In the meantime, in this direction, the enemy will increase pressure every day by trying to probe our line of defense in the hope of finding a weak link for a breakthrough.

Just got back from checking the scene of the latest NATO/UKROP NAZI terrorist attack on another civilian area in Petrovsky District of Donetsk. It was 100% for sure a ukrop Tochka-U, and I have the proof, including photos of the serial number. Photos and video coming soon. So stay tuned...

Мобилизованные, от которых ничего не ждали, и которые показали себя. Начинали войну с советскими вещмешками и в стальных шлемах, на школьных автобусах и мобилизованных ЗиЛках коммунальщиков. От мальчишек, призванных из институтской общаги, до дедушек, помнящих советскую армию. Над ними смеялись и свои, и чужие. А они шли вперёд, став одним из символов войны. Этот арт про ребят, которые честно выполнили приказ, не спрятавшись за чужими спинами. Они не хотели на войну, но не побежали, когда настал момент.
@Lunay14

Mobilized, from whom nothing was expected, and who showed themselves. They started the war with Soviet knapsacks and steel helmets, on school buses and mobilized ZiLka public utilities. From boys called up from the college hostel to grandfathers who remember the Soviet army. They went forward, as one of the symbols of this war. This is about the guys who bravely followed the order without hiding behind other people's backs. They did not want to go to war, but they did not run when the call came. ✊🏻

🇷🇺 Donbass reconstructs memorial on the site, where Nazis executed 75,000 people

On the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Donbas, a memorial to mine 4/4-bis will be reconstructed. In 1942-43 the German occupiers executed 75,000 people there.

📝 "We have visited the site of the monument with Sergei Kirienko [First Deputy Head of the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation] and Vladimir Medinsky [Assistant to the President of the Russian Federation]. We discussed the concept of reconstruction, which will take place under the auspices of the Russian Military Historical Association. Funds will be allocated from President Vladimir Putin's reserve fund", said Denis Pushilin, head of the DPR.
