โช๏ธ The RF Armed Forces occupied more advantageous positions in the #Donetsk and #SouthDonetsk directions, and in the #Avdeyevka direction they improved the position along the frontline;
โช๏ธ #Germany is preparing for war with #Russia, Medvedev said, commenting on a published conversation between the German military. According to him, attempts to present the conversation of Bundeswehr officers about the strike on the Crimean Bridge as a game of โmissiles and tanksโ are a malicious lie;
โช๏ธ Discussion of a settlement in #Ukraine is impossible without the participation of #Russia and taking into account its interests in the field of security, the Russian Foreign Ministry said following a meeting between Deputy Head of the Department Galuzin and Li Hui;
โช๏ธ The remains of Ukrainian military personnel who died in the Il-76 crash may be transferred to #Ukraine in the near future, Moskalkova told RIA Novosti;
โช๏ธ The use of Russia's sovereign assets for #Ukraine poses legal and economic difficulties, Meloni said.

โก๏ธ๐ท๐บ๐บ๐ฆโ๏ธ Battle for #Novomikhaylovka - Situation until 20:00 on 3 March 2024โก๏ธ
๐นIn the #SouthDonetsk direction, Russian troops are gaining a foothold in the central part of #Novomikhaylovka. Footage is actively circulating on the internet showing assault squads from the 155th Marine Brigade planting a unit flag on the ruins of one of the buildings.
โช๏ธ Part of Shevchenko and Sobornaya streets came under the control of Russian soldiers. The Church of the Archangel Michael, located on the AFU frontline of defence, came under the control of the RF Armed Forces.
โ๏ธHowever, the territory of the temple itself is being shot at from the school buildings and the Palace of Culture to the northwest, so it is not yet safe to be there. The enemy has concentrated units of the 79th Assault Brigade and is trying to cling to every house.
โช๏ธ To the east, the situation remains questionable, without information from there. We have no clear evidence of the AFU retreat from this part of Shevchenko and Sobornaya streets they control.
โช๏ธ A little further south, the enemy was thrown back several hundred meters along Academica Timiryazev Street. The territory of the Sintezprodservice LLC industrial zone was completely taken by Russian marines. Meanwhile, in the area of the โโfarms across the road, the presence of Ukrainian formations still remains.
โช๏ธ In the northern part of #Novomikhaylovka, according to some reports, the enemy began to withdraw some troops from Mira Street to the western outskirts, but there is no objective evidence of this yet.

โก๏ธ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ต๐ธโ๏ธ Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone until the End of 3 March 2024โก๏ธ
๐นIn the north of the #Gaza Strip, fighting continues in the southwestern region of Az-Zeitun. After advancing to Al-Sikka Street, the Israelis were unable to expand the zone of control deeper into Gaza. In turn, the Palestinian forces were also unable to push back the IDF units beyond the border areas.
๐นIn the central part of the Enclave, the Israeli Air Force launched a series of massive strikes on Deir al-Balah, killing more than ten people and injuring at least 20. One of the hits hit a truck carrying humanitarian aid on a section of the Ar-Rashid motorway.
๐นIn the south of the #Gaza Strip, Israeli troops reported the defeat of more than 50 Palestinian targets last night. And already in the morning, the Israelis advanced to the outskirts of the Hamad residential complex. At the moment, its residents are evacuating towards Rafah, and IDF units are preparing to carry out a cleansing operation.
๐นOn the border with #Lebanon, the exchange of strikes continues, but its intensity has decreased somewhat compared to yesterday. Hezbollah fighters traditionally reported the defeat of IDF military targets, while Israeli troops bombed the outskirts of border towns in southern #Lebanon.
๐นMeanwhile, the possible conclusion of a truce between Israel and Palestinian forces in Cairo is being actively discussed on the Internet. At the same time, neither side has yet made concessions: Hamas is demanding the return of refugees to the north of the enclave and an increase in the volume of humanitarian aid, while the Israelis insist on handing over a list of hostages.

๐นRussian troops launched a series of attacks on the territory of the so-called #Ukraine. In the occupied part of the #DPR, two temporary deployment points of the AFU have been hit in the area of two schools in #Mirnograd. And in the #Kharkov region, the impact hit the GRU training center in Verkhnyaya Pisarevka.
๐นOn #Crimea, meanwhile, one of the most massive Ukrainian drone raids in recent times was carried out. Most of the UAVs were shot down by air defence systems on approach to #Feodosiya. However, one of the drones fell on the territory of an oil depot, and the other on a section of the Tavrida Motorway.
๐นIn the #Bakhmut sector, Russian units expanded the zone of control to Voronezhskaya Street in #Krasnoye (#Ivanovskoye), and also repelled attacks by Ukrainian assault groups to the southwest of the village. And near #Avdeyevka, the RF Armed Forces destroyed at least the second #US American Abrams tank. A โGhoulโ kamikaze drone was used to demilitarise it.
๐นIn the #SouthDonetsk direction, Russian troops were able to advance in the central part of #Novomikhaylovka, establishing control over part of Shevchenko and Sobornaya streets, as well as the Church of the Archangel Michael. Meanwhile, Ukrainian formations maintain a presence at a nearby school and the Palace of Culture.

โThe bypass route increases the number of ships calling at South African ports,โ and therefore strengthens South Africaโs position in BRICS.
India also won: it is now more profitable for the Persian Gulf countries to supply oil there than to send it to Europe,โ reports columnist Brad Dress.

๐ท๐บ๐บ๐ฆ About the night attack on Dnepropetrovsk
Today, around 3 a.m., residents of Dnepropetrovsk heard a loud explosion in the southern part of the city. In the morning, local authorities confirmed the fact of the attack, but there were no further clarifications apart from the resulting fire.
๐ปAfter a detailed analysis of the information received from various sources, the approximate affected area was established: 48.3773039, 34.9311456
โช๏ธAt the moment, it has been established that the attack hit a Pokrova electronic warfare system, which was developed and improved by AFU after the start of the air defense system. No more than 8 of these systems are known to have been adopted and used by AFU in various cities of Ukraine. The exact extent of the damage to the facility is unknown, except that it is currently unable to operate.
โช๏ธIn addition, it was learned that it is in this area where the electronic warfare company of the Dnipropetrovsk air brigade operates.
๐ What we managed to learn about the Pokrov electronic warfare system based on information from open sources:
- Its work is based on the "spoofing" method, when the signal is not blocked, but modified. As a result, the attack or reconnaissance UAV changes its flight path;
- the system is capable of influencing the satellite navigation of missiles throughout their flight path - the thing is that the missile guidance system accumulates errors and, at the final stage of the route, fails;
- the aiming error ranges between 1 and 10% of the missile's flight range. For example, if a rocket flew 1000 km, then 1% is an error of 10 km.
๐Based solely on this information, we can conclude that the Pokrov system is theoretically capable of jamming or deceiving a cruise missile, turning it from a high-precision weapon into an ordinary target with explosives (the same goes for unmanned aerial vehicles of stroke) . But the Ukrainian side is not interested in where they will fall more in the countryside or in residential development; so to speak, there will be another reason to blame Russia and beg the West for money/weapons, distorting reality.

โ๏ธ A lawsuit against the German officers who planned the attack on the Crimean bridge....
...is submitted to the Office of the Attorney General of Germany. It was filed by representatives of the party "Free Saxony", because the negotiations of the Bundeswehr officers fall under Article 13 of the International Criminal Code of the Federal Republic of Germany ("Crime of aggression").
"An attack on the Crimean bridge with German participation would start a war of aggression against Russia. And possibly would be the starting point for World War III," the statement said. And all this, for a second, makes the threat of retaliatory military action against Germany quite real.

Zelensky blames West after botching โcounteroffensive that should have never taken placeโ
โI think heโs just looking for the reasons to point fingers at [now former military commander-in-chief] General Zaluzhny. He was trying to divert the blame,โ retired US Lt. Col. Earl Rasmussen told Sputnik, commenting on remarks by Ukraineโs president on Saturday accusing the West is playing โinternal political gamesโ instead of providing much-needed arms aid to Kiev.
Ukraine became critically dependent on Western arms aid in at least the 2014 coup, the observer added, recalling NATO training of Ukrainian troops, the CIA sites set up across the country, the biolabs, the weapons systems delivered to Kiev, and the gradual destruction of Kievโs own defense industrial base thanks to the conflict in the Donbass, the disruption caused by cutting off defense ties with Russia, and the loss in capabilities to Russian strikes after the 2022 escalation.

Earl Rasmussen told Sputnik, commenting on remarks by Ukraineโs president on Saturday accusing the West is playing โinternal political gamesโ instead of providing much-needed arms aid to Kiev.
โThe counteroffensiveโฆshould never have taken place. The Russians had established a multi-tier, defensive line, dug in, had superiority as far as artillery, as far as air defense. There was no air support capable to be even provided to Ukraine. Manpower as well as another factor there. It was an impossible task. It should never have happened,โ Rasmussen said.

โThey have no industrial base. Their industryโs been completely destroyed. They cut off their trade relations before the conflict with Russia, essentially, and going into this stupid EU cooperation agreement. And they don't meet the standards for selling into the EU to begin with. So their industry was falling apart, corruption was rampant, just a horrible situation. And then you're going to go against one of the best militaries in the world? Not, not a good idea. [But the] West kept poking them,โ Rasmussen said.
