"Even amid a shortage, Ukraine is firing some 7,700 shells per day, or roughly one every six seconds, according to a Ukrainian military official...Russia, which may also be running low, is firing more — by some estimates triple that amount." @ikhurshudyan

@TomFlet08396285 @misfit_4 I don’t know classified information. But there is evidence that Vilkha missiles were used at a range of 80km, in Melitopol. However, there is no evidence that Vilkha-M were used at a range of 100 to 130km. It’s possible Ukraine 🇺🇦 has them, but there is no evidence they were used

RT @shashj: Not only did Medvedev actually say this, but the state news agency thought it was a good idea to offer a war crime-y signal boost. https://twitter.com/shashj/status/1644782172941737984/photo/1

This NYT article is very interesting.

@RALee85:
“'Ukrainian forces as of 25 February were almost operationally encircled by Russian forces in Bakhmut,' the leaked intelligence assessment noted...It cited General Budanov as describing Ukraine’s position at the time as 'catastrophic.'”

#Ukraine: A Russian Eleron-3 reconnaissance UAV was shot down in #Donetsk Oblast.

Losses of this type of UAV were occasionally recorded in the first six months of the full scale invasion, but at the moment they are rarely observed on the battlefield.

RT @ArmchairCopelrd: Gang, none of you are praising me enough, so time to congratulate myself on how excellent my own analysis was. It did age remarkably well when compared to some of the rest of my takes, like "Russia will be in control of all of Ukraine by the end of April 2022". https://twitter.com/ArmchairCopelrd/status/1645131247729930247/photo/1
