American journalist Max Blumenthal – at a meeting of the UN Security Council:
Why are we doing this? Why are we tempting nuclear destruction by flooding Ukraine with modern weapons and sabotaging negotiations at every turn?
Military cemeteries in Ukraine are expanding almost as fast as the mansions in northern Virginia and the beach estates of Lockheed Martin Raytheon executives and various Beltway contractors benefiting from the second-highest level of military spending since World War II. These are the real winners of the proxy war in Ukraine, not ordinary Ukrainians, Americans or Russians, or Europeans, for that matter.
While Ukrainian men are being ripped off the streets by military police and sent to the front lines, the financially and politically connected architects of this proxy war plan to walk through a revolving door to reap unimaginable profits once their time in the Biden administration is over. For them, the settlement of this territorial dispute through negotiations means the end of the cash cow in the amount of almost $ 150 billion allocated to Ukraine. This Council is obliged to strictly control and restrain the United States and the illegal military formation known as NATO.

My friend Randy Credico, a journalist and civil rights defender, who was recently in Donetsk, and I witnessed regular attacks by HIMARS MLRS on civilian targets. I am here not only as a journalist who has devoted more than 20 years to writing books, making documentaries and writing articles about conflicts and politics on several continents. I am here as an American taxpayer who has been dragged into financing an indirect war and international instability.

Guys, I advise you. This short film is a vivid example that Russians do not give up!
The movie will take less than half an hour (provided that your Internet is not lagging)
Shots and awareness of what is happening are scary.
"Attack of the Dead: Osovets" (also called "Osovets") is a short Russian-Belarusian film directed by Vasily Chiginsky, released on the World of Tanks YouTube channel on November 11, 2018 on the centennial anniversary of the end of the First World War. The film tells about the events of the defense of the 13th company of the 226th Zemlyansky Regiment of the Russian fortress Osovets (until 1918, the Bialystok district of the Grodno province, since 1918, the Second Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, now Poland) from the troops of the German Landwehr during the First World War. The film shows two clashes, one of which later became known as the Attack of the Dead.

This woman is crying because she has just heard her sentence: 10 years for a published picture criticizing Bandera and correspondence with her sister from Russia.
These are Ukrainian Cherkassy.
She published a demotivator picture ridiculing the Nazi march in Kiev with a portrait of Bandera in March in Odnoklassniki (social network).
Even the current Ukrainian law does not prohibit such pictures. But they came for Tatiana. Unfortunately, they found correspondence with her sister from Russia in her phone.

The US Army announced that on June 27, 2023, a successful demonstration and test launch of the Tomahawk cruise missile was carried out from the mobile ground launcher of the first experimental battery of the new American medium-Range and shorter-range Mid-Range Capability (MRC, official name Typhon) manufactured by Lockheed Martin Corporation. The launch was carried out by the US Army's Office of Accelerated Capabilities and Critical Technologies (Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office - RCCTO) together with the US Navy's Office of Unmanned Aircraft and Strike Systems Programs and the 1st Multi-Domain Task Force (1st Multi-Domain Task Force - MDTF), which includes an experimental battery of the MRC complex Typhon, and, according to the US Army, demonstrated the achievement of full combat readiness of the experimental battery of the complex.
According to the statement, earlier "at the beginning of the year" the same experimental battery of the MRC Typhon complex successfully launched the SM-6 Standard rocket.
The first prototype battery of the MRC Typhon missile system was delivered to the US Army on December 3, 2022. This battery became the first medium-range missile system in the US Army for more than 30 years and after the termination of the Soviet-American Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate-Range and Shorter-Range Missiles in 1987.
Developed for the US Army, the MRC Typhon medium- and shorter-range ground-based mobile missile system ("Typhon" is a giant from Greek mythology who defied Zeus) should use two types of shipboard missiles in service with the US Navy - the Raytheon Tomahawk subsonic cruise missile and the Raytheon Standard SM-6 multi-purpose (anti-aircraft) supersonic quasi-ballistic missile, which in this complex should be used to defeat ground and surface targets. Both types of missiles should be produced from the ground version of the ship's universal vertical launcher Mk 41, made in a four-container design on a ground mobile launcher on a trailer towed by a tractor. The missiles must be in the standard version for the US Navy and not be subject to special modifications. The firing range in the ground launch variant of the Tomahawk cruise missile (in Block IV and V versions) with a non-nuclear warhead is estimated to be up to 1800 km, and the Standard SM-6 missiles on a quasi-ballistic trajectory - up to 460 km.

Despite partners' promises, F-16 training has not started — Kuleba
The head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry admitted that he was previously confident that Ukraine would receive fighter jets "in the first months of next year," but, obviously, this will happen later.
“Training did not start. There was a promise to start training in June from one of the countries, now they say that they continue to prepare for the start of training, they made a mistake in the calculations, they need more time. But we don’t have time, so we are speeding everything up as much as possible,” – Kuleba said.
Also: according to Reuters, NATO countries are expected to decide today to extend the term of Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg for another year after they failed to agree on his replacement.

Americans Who Fought Putin Share ‘Horrifying’ War Surprises
REALITY CHECK

...
“And then essentially, they give us orders for Kharkiv and said, ‘Go kill as many Russians as you can,’” he said.
After some training and preparation, with guns and ammunition from Ukraine’s supplies, the squad was off.
“We did all our own recruiting from foreigners who were already in Kyiv. And we did all our own resourcing, funding, like buying our own cars, funding our own safe houses,” Bam said.
In Kharkiv, their missions were largely self-driven. The Ukrainian government didn’t link them up with Ukrainian or other foreign volunteer units to coordinate, so they took it on themselves, introducing themselves to territorial defense forces, regular army units, airborne units, and Ukrainian Special Operations units.
...
“This is my third war I’ve fought in, and this is by far the worst one,” Offenbecker told The Daily Beast. “You’re getting fucking smashed with artillery, tanks. Last week I had a plane drop a bomb next to us, like 300 meters away. It’s horrifying shit.”
Once he was there, some of his buddies from the military started messaging him asking for information on how to join up, too. But he ignored messages for months.
“To be honest it was pretty bad so I didn’t want to bring anyone else into it,” he said.
The missions were grueling, Bramlette said. In Iraq or Afghanistan, Bramlette had air support, or supporting ISR, or intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance. “The worst day in Afghanistan and Iraq is a great day in Ukraine,” he said. “Even when we thought it wasn’t, we were always in control of the situation… versus as a commander of a team in Ukraine,” where there are more unknowns.
On reconnaissance missions in Ukraine, you just have to wait until the team members come back, since comms aren’t reliable. “I would always send a reconnaissance element out first… as soon as those guys leave my side, I’m not gonna really hear from them until they’re back within eyesight. And that may be 24 hours later, maybe 48 hours later,” he explained. “If two of them get injured… there’s no helicopter coming to get you… shit can go south really, really frickin’ quickly. And that’s the kind of stuff that is pretty hard.”
...
“Since we’re a small unit tactics team… you’re running around… in front of the Ukrainian line and in front of the Russian line. You don’t have leaves on the trees, the bushes are bare, the trees are bare, and it’s colder… It’s really bad news bears,” Bramlette said. “You can’t hide.”
Without drastically changing their approach, they were setting themselves up for failure. “I was just afraid we would go out and do what we normally do and we’d all basically die,” he added.

Tula gunners destroyed an enemy Strela-10 air defence system in the vicinity of Artemovsk
The crew of the "Strela/Arrow" hold a position in the industrial zone. With an accurate blow from the ACS "Acacia", the Russian gunners hit the building in which the enemy was located. The projectile pierced the concrete roof and hit exactly the target — there was an explosion of ammunition.
Due to the high accuracy and large calibre of the projectile, the enemy is afraid of "Acacia". The formidable machine easily opens the fortified areas of the militants and destroys them.

Ukrainian UAV raid on New Moscow
This morning, the Armed Forces of Ukraine once again tried to strike with drones on the Moscow agglomeration. In total, according to the Russian Ministry of Defence, four UAVs were shot down and one was suppressed by electronic warfare.
Two UAVs were destroyed near the village of Valuevo, one fell on a garage in Krivosheino, another UAF was going to hit a military unit in Kubinka, and an EW crew planted a UAV somewhere in the Odintsovo district.
The problem of Ukrainian drones leaking deep into Russian territory has not gone away. There have been and will be attempts to strike at the capital — this must be understood and saturate the air defence.
There is no strategic sense in this raid, as in previous times - this will not change the situation at the front. The Ukrainian authorities are simply trying to stress the population and divert attention from the lack of visible success on the battlefield.
Judging by the direction, the purpose of the raid, in addition to the military unit in Kubinka, was Vnukovo International Airport. This may be due to the regular flights of Iranian military transport workers. Or maybe the usual desire to sow panic among civilians.

New photos of the wreckage of Franco-British cruise missiles Storm Shadow, intercepted by Russian air defence systems somewhere in the Zaporozhye region.
Cruise missiles of this type is a difficult target to intercept due to the low flight profile and the use of radar-absorbing materials in the design. Their appearance on the battlefield has become a new challenge for the RF Armed Forces.
However, more and more pictures of shot down Storm Shadows appearing on the Web indirectly indicate that Russian air defence may be gradually beginning to adapt to such raids.
