❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 How the Russian Armed Forces managed to destroy Odesa's energy sector — Rybar and Military Chronicle’s analysis
In Ukraine, the consequences of previous missile strikes on energy infrastructure facilities have been almost completely eliminated: outdoor lighting always functions, and scheduled power outages are gradually being cancelled.
With this in mind, the Russian Armed Forces' strikes seem pointless, as Ukraine repeatedly claims that it has managed to handle the problem with power supply. In fact, this does not correspond the reality. The #Odesa case shows this in practice. In fact, this is the first Ukrainian region, the power system of which was damaged critically.
🔻 How is Odesa's power supply system arranged?
The 330 kW power distribution is organized through one key node, the #Usatove substation.
#Novovodeska and #Adzhalyk substations were also hit: one of the two 330/110kW autotransformers was hit. A similar situation is developing at the #Artsyz substation.
According to open sources information, the total transformer capacity with its own generation is only a third of what it was before, about 471.7 MW (of 1332 MW). This is critically insufficient for Odesa.
🔻 Do preventive shutdowns help?
It helps minimize damage in the event of an attack, but if there are no strikes, it only makes it worse. Every shutdown causes overvoltage. As a consequence, not only 110 kW and 35 kW equipment and transformers fail, but also medium voltage - 10/0.4 kW and 6/0.4 kW - necessary for normal city life.
The constant switching on/off of equipment causes damage, sometimes comparable to the impact itself, but in this case not point-to-point, but distributed throughout the network. It can take a long time to restore power, and the city is transferred to generators. In a sense, declaring an air alert in this case is more dangerous than the strike itself.
🔻 What are Ukrainian energy companies doing?
DTEK's main efforts are focused on several areas:
➖Maintaining the remaining high-voltage equipment
➖Maintaining the equipment in function
➖Restoring 110, 10 and 6 kW networks
❗️ 330 kW networks are the most difficult to restore. They are repaired on a spot basis to maintain the minimum functionality of the substation. But it is impossible to replace autotransformers now.
Because of the restoration of low-voltage networks, the need to power from a limited number of substations increases.
This leads to mains voltage drops, which are compensated for by a rise in voltage at the power transformers. However, as new substations are switched on, the drop stops, and the high voltage transformers remain unchanged. It turns out that in apartments and houses of residents the level rises to 260-270 W instead of the usual 220 W - and further loads the power grid.
🔻 Prospects
The strikes on Ukraine's power system, despite their non-obviousness, are bearing fruit, which is most seriously felt in the Odesa region. If the strikes continue, the city's energy system will simply fail, and the region will be isolated from the general grid for a long time - from several weeks to several months.
In theory, this will limit the transfer of personnel and equipment from #Romania and #Moldova by rail and reduce the logistics capabilities of the Odesa port. But this is a double-edged sword: the energy crisis may push the AFU to seize the Cuciurgan power station in #Transnistria.
The deterioration of the situation will put even more pressure on the local population: discontent is growing every day. And the forced mobilization of citizens exacerbates the situation in the region.
❗️ Odesa region is the first one where the plot to destroy the energy infrastructure has succeeded, bringing about military and political changes.

⚡️🇲🇩🇷🇴🔎 What is happening in #Moldova - Situation for March 25 - 31 2023; Part 1⚡️
🇷🇴 "Romanianisation" of the Country
Last week Moldovan authorities celebrated the anniversary of Romania's annexation of the country in 1918 - the so-called "uniri".
▪️ Minister of Foreign Affairs and European Integration Nicolae Popescu has called the takeover of Bessarabia by Romania in 1918 "a historic moment of reunification" which allegedly allowed the Moldovan people to escape "war, terror and communist dictatorship".
▪️ President Maia Sandu took part in the celebration of the annexation of her native country, calling the day "important for all Romanians". She noted the symbolism of the "celebration" because of the ever-closer rapprochement between #Romania and #Moldova today.
▪️ Against this background, Romanian Prime Minister Nicolae Ciucă actually called for supporting the "European way" of #Moldova and for eliminating the consequences of the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact, which #Russia "hinders" so far.
In fact, the elimination of the above-mentioned pact means the takeover of #Moldova by #Romania, of which it was a part from 1918 to 1940, before joining the USSR with the status of a Union republic.
▪️ The "National Moldovan Party" has submitted a petition to the parliament to rename the legislative body the Sfatul Tsarii, which recognised the annexation of the country in 1918 and then ceased to exist.
▪️ On 26-27 March, a rally of "unionists" - supporters of the takeover of #Moldova by #Romania - took place in #Chisinau. Supporters of "unionists" brought a map of "Great Romania" and waved the flag of the neo-Nazi "Azov" regiment, shouting pro-Ukrainian slogans.
Nearby, supporters of Moldovan independence from the Haiduk movement gathered and demanded that the Azov flag be removed.
▪️ The Party of Socialists has asked the Constitutional Court to check the constitutionality of the adopted law on renaming the Moldovan language "Romanian".
Politicians consider it to be unconstitutional and note that a referendum is needed for such a decision. However, the changes in the Fundamental Law have already been enshrined.
Meanwhile, Minister of Culture Sergiu Prodan has already called for Moldovan libraries to hand over all books in Cyrillic to museums.
▪️ A bust of the Romanian monarch Ferdinand the First, under whom #Bessarabia was ceded to #Romania, has been unveiled in Balti.
🔹European Integration Attempts and Relations with the #USA
▪️ On 29 March, Maia Sandu spoke at a summit for democracy organised by the US authorities. She declared that "stability" in #Moldova is in the interest of the west and asked for help in fighting disinformation and #Russia.
▪️ Maia Sandu is scheduled to meet with Romanian President Klaus Johannis and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Bucharest on 3 April to discuss Euro-integration and Moldovan security against the background of a "hybrid war".
▪️ On March 28, EU Council President Charles Michel arrived in #Chisinau and said the #EU would decide on another "very substantial" cash tranche by summer.
Michel also said that the #EU has allotted #Moldova about 1 billion euros over the last year.
▪️ At the same time, Foreign Minister Nicolae Popescu said in an interview that he tries to convey the message to the German government that without infrastructure projects between #Romania and #Moldova, the latter cannot ensure stability.
The politician pointed to the need to create common power grids that would ensure a "reliable energy supply" for the country.
🔹Domestic Politics
▪️ Moldovan authorities have re-extended the state of emergency regime in the country, explaining this by "internal and external threats" as well as "hybrid warfare".

⚡️🇲🇩🇷🇴🔎 What is happening in #Moldova - Situation for March 25 - 31 2023; Part 2⚡️
▪️ Parliament has also approved a package of laws to once again extend the powers of the Information and Security Service (ISS), despite opposition protests.
The draft envisages the installation of audio and video surveillance equipment in the homes of citizens without their knowledge. The Venice Commission had earlier criticised the bill.
▪️ The ruling PAS party wants to ban MPs from the Shor faction from making statements in the briefing room following Marina Tauber's statement on Chisinau and Bucharest's preparations for a provocation in #Transnistria.
🔹Protests and Socio-Economic Crisis
▪️ Moldovan Prime Minister Dorin Recean called "criminals" who protest against the country being dragged into war and the economic crisis. The politician said the discontent was caused by a sharp rise in prices, but "the government cannot go along with the criminals".
▪️ The Moldovan police are drawing up protocols against protesters in #Edinet who expressed dissatisfaction with Maia Sandu's policies. The protesters are accused of blocking roads and "beating up motorists".
▪️ Minister of Labour and Social Protection Alexei Buzu said that all pensions will be indexed by 15% from 1 April. Opposition MPs, for their part, called the indexation of pensions "a mockery of the authorities over the people".
The socialists have asked the Constitutional Court to review the lawfulness of the decision to reduce the indexation of pensions to 15% when inflation and price rises exceed 30%, which contradicts the law on the state pension system.
▪️ Commenting on the country's gas supply problems, Energy Minister Viktor Parlikov said that the gas factor did not have as much impact on the economy as it was portrayed in the media.
The statement angered ex-Prime Minister Ion Kiku, who suggested asking citizens whether their family budgets were being affected by the multiplication of the gas tariff.
He pointed out that a huge number of businesses have closed due to high prices and the country is now "paying the price for the government's unprofessionalism".
At the same time it turned out that #Moldova overpays for gas almost three times as much as compared to the European countries. And the head of Moldovagaz company Vadim Cheban refused to answer the question whose gas Moldova bought from Europe this winter. Apparently, it was Russian gas at an inflated price.
▪️ #PMR President Vadim Krasnoselsky has invited the FBI to join the investigation into the terrorist attacks being prepared in Transnistria by the SBU against the OSCE delegation, which included a US citizen and Head of Mission to Moldova Kelly Keiderling.
🔹Gagauz Autonomy
▪️ Member of the People's Assembly of #Gagauzia Sergei Cimpoes has expressed the opinion that the autonomy is concerned about the prospect of a possible unification of #Moldova with #Romania.
He said a referendum should be held in #Gagauzia and he is sure that the Gagauz voters will vote against the merger with a #NATO country.

⚡️🇲🇩🇷🇴🔎 What is happening in #Moldova - Situation for March 25 - 31 2023; Part 3⚡️
🔹#Transnistria and Military Escalation
▪️ Following the #NATO joint naval exercise with the participation of the Moldovan military, the Moldovan Defence Ministry has launched a planned military exercise of Romanian, Moldovan, US and UK special forces "JCET-2023" from 27 March to 7 April.
In addition, another military exercise took place in Balti on 29 March, which included live firing of infantry and artillery weapons.
▪️ #Transnistria noted that the Chisinau authorities do not warn about the exercises: in Tiraspol they learn about them from the media and only when they are already underway, which is of concern to the inhabitants of the region.
▪️ At the same time, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that the Ukrainian authorities support the "bellicose aspirations" of the Moldovan authorities towards #Transnistria. According to him, the Ukrainian side is demonstrating its readiness to intervene in the conflict in every possible way.
▪️ Defence Minister Anatoliy Nosatii, in turn, said that the presence of Russian troops in #Transnistria was a destabilizing factor.
Commenting on the high-profile call-up of citizens for military training, he confirmed that reservists all over the country receive summonses requiring them to attend training exercises.
Military exercises with reservists will be held from April to September this year in #Chisinau, #Causeni, #Straseni and other cities of the country.
▪️ The Moldovan government has confirmed that the elections for the Governor post of #Gagauzia, scheduled for April 30, will take place despite the extension of the state of emergency in the country.
At the same time, the ruling party PAS has said that it will not support any candidate in the elections.

Forwarded from 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐤𝐚 𝐍𝐞𝐰𝐬 📰💻
🇲🇩 Una delegación del Presidente del Comité Militar de la OTAN, Almirante Robert Bauer, ha concluido hoy su visita a Chisinau.
▪️ Bauer declaró que la Alianza tiene la intención de seguir reforzando las capacidades de defensa de Moldavia mediante programas de ciberseguridad y formación.
Ohladciuc, por su parte, agradeció a la OTAN su ayuda en la lucha contra las "amenazas híbridas" (Iniciativa para el Refuerzo de las Capacidades de Defensa), que se refiere al creciente sentimiento prorruso entre la oposición moldava, así como en la PMR y Gagauzia.
▪️ Bauer también se reunió con el Primer Ministro Dorin Recean, quien destacó el aumento del presupuesto de defensa del país y la presencia del ejército moldavo en operaciones internacionales de mantenimiento de la paz.
📌 Según una encuesta reciente, la mayoría de los ciudadanos moldavos no quiere unirse a la alianza, pero esto no impide en absoluto que el gobierno achaque este sentimiento a la "influencia del Kremlin". Al contrario, Maya Sandu y sus partidarios piden cada vez más fondos a la OTAN para luchar contra la "amenaza rusa", artificialmente exagerada por los medios de comunicación.

🇲🇩 A delegation of the Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, Admiral Robert Bauer, today concluded its visit to Chisinau.
Bauer met with Defence Minister Anatoliy Nosatii and National Army Commander General Eduard Okhladciuc.
▪️ Bauer stated that the Alliance intends to further strengthen Moldova's defence capabilities through cybersecurity and training programmes.
Ohladciuc thanked NATO for its assistance in combating "hybrid threats" (Defence Capabilities Strengthening Initiative), which refers to the growing pro-Russian sentiment among the Moldovan opposition, as well as in the PMR and Gagauzia.
▪️ Bauer also met with Prime Minister Dorin Recean, who highlighted the increase in the country's defence budget and the presence of the Moldovan army in international peacekeeping operations.
According to a recent poll, the majority of Moldovan citizens do not want to join the alliance, but this does not stop the government from blaming "Kremlin influence" for this sentiment. On the contrary, Maya Sandu and her supporters are increasingly calling for NATO funding to fight the "Russian threat", artificially exaggerated by the media.

Адмирал Бауэр: НАТО продолжит оказывать поддержку Молдове

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🗓 Behind the Scenes - #Ukraine Digest for 13 Jan⚡️
🔹Will Ukrainian MPs regret not voting for the scandalous mobilisation law if they find themselves at the front? In the new version of the document, which is being prepared by the government, the reservation from mobilisation for deputies may disappear. The media write that when finalising the draft law, the MoD is ready to soften some norms, but the general concept will remain at the same. There will also be restrictions for evaders (although they plan to complicate the procedure for blocking accounts), which the deputies strongly opposed. One way or another, we will have to expand the base of mobilised people, because otherwise we will not be able to recruit people. As for the removal of armour from deputies and officials, there is little practical sense in this measure. It is dictated by the desire to create a deceptive impression among people that in #Ukraine everyone is equal before the law. However, there is no certainty that such a provision in the law will be a good incentive for deputies to vote for it.
🔹Gonzalo Lira, a well-known blogger and journalist, a citizen of the US and Chile, died in a #Kharkov prison. He ran a YouTube channel on which he criticized the Kiev authorities, talked about the atrocities of nationalists and refuted the fakes of Ukrainian propaganda. For this, the Ukrainian regime imprisoned Gonzalo Lira, from which he has not left. Gonzalo complained of beatings and torture in jail. Shortly before his death, in a letter to his relatives, he said that he was seriously ill with pneumonia, which was ignored by doctors. Many well-known compatriots reacted with indignation to the death of an American citizen in prison on social networks. Including Elon Musk, Donald Trump's son and journalist Tucker Carson. "The Biden administration could have brought Gonzalo Lira back with a phone call, but it didn't lift a finger. Therefore, the Ukrainian government knew that it could act with impunity," A huge number of our fellow citizens and our supporters remain in prisons. Still alive. Our diplomats and the Commissioner for Human Rights need to do everything possible to launch civil exchanges.
🔹A citizen of neighboring #Moldova is also facing 7 to 10 years in Ukrainian prison. He crossed the #Dniester on an inflatable boat to transport an Ukrainian who was hiding from mobilisation to the Moldovan side. Both were captured by border guards, who say that this is not the first time that Moldovan citizens have tried to smuggle Ukrainians across the state border by boat. And that Ukrainians are ready to pay several thousand dollars for such a service. The consulate was informed about the detention, so there is hope that he will get to his homeland alive.
🔹Polish farmers obtained concessions from their Government by blocking the border. And now Romanian farmers have blocked the movement of trucks through the #Porubnoye - #Siret checkpoint on the border with #Romania. Cars, passenger buses and pedestrians continue to cross the border as usual. According to Romanian media, farmers are demanding that the government increase subsidies. Without such measures, it is difficult for them to compete with Ukrainian agricultural products, which are transported duty-free to the #EU.
🔹In #Kharkov, the authorities have disfigured the most beautiful metro station in the city. According to the decision of the City Council, bas-reliefs depicting the poet were destroyed at the Pushkinskaya station. Even earlier, the plaques with the texts of his poems were barbarously smeared with paint. They also dismantled several monuments to Pushkin and stripped the Pushkin Theater of its name. The next step is to change the names of the metro station itself and Pushkinskaya Street. It is encouraging that not everyone in Ukraine supports the regime's war on Russian culture.
🇺🇦 This is what happened in #Ukraine on 13 January.
