RT @shashj: I’ve written a lot about open-source intelligence, long before the war & in the run-up to it. This interactive piece is about how it’s been used in wartime—how it can illuminate, but also confuse and distort. A jigsaw puzzle with no box & infinite pieces. https://www.economist.com/interactive/international/2023/01/13/open-source-intelligence-is-piercing-the-fog-of-war-in-ukraine?fsrc=core-app-economist

"Iran will receive a number of Russian Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jets by March as part of a military order that includes defense systems, missiles and helicopters, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported, citing an interview with a lawmaker."

@escortert @suessmeyer Respectfully, after researching there's unfortunately currently no geo-locatable film or pics to back these claims up at the moment, although IMO Dibrova + Chervonopopivka are likely contested. Some of the mentioned reports come from non-reliable accounts.

@suessmeyer:
@escortert There are various reports that AFU are fighting in the western outskirts of Kreminna and in the city center. Dibrova&Kuzmyne are under AFU control as well as forrest south of C130514 and Chervonopopivka. Pischane north west of Kreminna is contested. Your maps are not up-to-date.

Local residents of Berdiansk report no less than five explosions, as well as air defense activity over the city.

@escortert @suessmeyer As an afterthought by knowledge of the geography I also think its possible that UAF have fire control over the Pischane, so in that sense yes it could be contested. From other research yes UAF are close to Kreminaa's SW outskirts, but no evidence fighting has started in the town.

@haynesdeborah:
Interestingly on this latest aid package for Ukraine, Ben Wallace says the tanks and the AS90s + ammo will come from UK stocks but “a significant number of the other donations are being purchased from the open market or from supportive third-party countries”.

@Klaus_Roehl @akbullpup @Teoyaomiquu @domenpresern No it did not. There is nothing in the videos indicating top attack.

#Ukraine: The final ShKH Zuzana 2 155mm self-propelled howitzer has now been delivered to the Ukrainian Army from 🇸🇰Slovakia, bringing the total deliveries of this type to eight. These are modern and well regarded by Ukrainian crews.

Worth noting: This is the final of the batch of eight that were purchased by Ukraine.

There are a further 16 units that were ordered by Germany, Norway and Denmark, which will be delivered later.

#Ukraine: The amount of NATO-pattern artillery in UA continues to increase- an image showing two of four Slovakian ShKH Zuzana 2 155mm self-propelled howitzers that have been delivered to the Ukrainian Army recently- eight are to be delivered in total. https://t.co/ALnvihEnLw
