โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆโš”๏ธ Russian Defence Ministry Report on the Progress of the Special Military Operation (16โ€“22 March 2024)โšก๏ธ

๐Ÿ—“ Today, the RF Armed Forces carried out a long-range air-launched, sea-launched, ground-based and unmanned aerial attack against power facilities, military industrial complex, rail-road hubs, arsenals, deployment areas of AFU troops and foreign mercenaries.

๐Ÿ’ฅ The strike disrupted the functioning of the manufacturing enterprises involved in issuing and repairing weapons, military hardware and ammunition.

โ—๏ธIn addition, foreign military equipment and weapons delivered to Ukraine from NATO countries have been destroyed, the transfer of enemy reserves to the frontline has been disrupted, and AFU and mercenary units have been neutralised in reconstitution areas.

๐ŸŽฏ All targets have been achieved!

๐Ÿ—“ From 16 to 22 March 2024, in response to shelling of Russian territory, attempts to break through and to capture Russian border settlements, the RF Armed Forces carried out 49 air high-precision strikes, including Kinzhal hypersonic missiles, missile systems, and unmanned aerial vehicles.

โš”๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ’ฉ Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment by US Influencers of "Institute for the Study of War" (ISW):

๐Ÿคฅ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ: The ISW Trolls are once again attempting an assessment, nonsense of course.๐Ÿ”ธThe offensive potential of the Russian and his reserves is directly related to the defensive capabilities of the Ukrop, increasing if the latter waste his resources on senseless offensives and counteroffensives.๐Ÿ”ธIn addition, the US Influencers are complaining again about the lack of support from the West as usual.๐Ÿ”ธIt is striking that the Minus Milbloggers still portray the failed AFU offensive in the north as the actions of the Russian traitor terrorists, which is simply a lie.๐Ÿ”ธThe military information is again beneath all dignity when you look at the embarrassing boilerplate.๐Ÿ”ธThe Ukrowehrmacht is more modern in its command structure than the RF Armed Forces, but that's about it. The actions themselves will only be taught at military academies as negative examples.๐Ÿ”ธThere were chances in 2022, but Zaluzhny did not receive the support needed to attack additionally in Zaporozhye.๐Ÿ”ธNow the capable AFU commanders have been exchanged with morons. The Kiev Regime should listen to the Pope!๐Ÿ”ธISW probably continues to drink the blood of deported Russian children, according to a well informed source not wishing to be named.๐Ÿ”ธ

โš ๏ธ Warning! ISW is a troll entity linked to the US Regime. The henchmen spread propaganda and disinformation instead of providing a picture of the situation on the front, which is evident from the mostly fruitless frontline information.

๐Ÿ’ฌ The Text is quoted verbatim, including the often horrifying misspelling of localities. The respective source is linked in the footer.

๐Ÿ”ป March 21 Key Takeaways ๐Ÿ‘ป

โ–ช๏ธ The Russian military command appears to be forming reserves capable of sustaining ongoing offensive operations in Ukraine, but these reserves are unlikely to be able to function as cohesive large-scale penetration or exploitation formations this year.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian offensive tactics will likely increasingly pressure Ukrainian defenses as long as delays in Western security assistance persist.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian forces conducted a larger series of missile strikes targeting Kyiv City on the night of March 20 to 21.

โ–ช๏ธ NATO Military Committee Chairperson Admiral Rob Bauer stated that neither Ukraine nor NATO prompted Russia to invade Ukraine and that Ukrainian forcesโ€™ adaptations and innovations have in part changed modern warfare.

โ–ช๏ธ The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) announced on March 21 that Vice Admiral Konstantin Kabantsov became acting Commander of the Russian Northern Fleet.

โ–ช๏ธ Bloomberg reported on March 20 that an unspecified source close to the Kremlin stated that the all-Russian pro-Ukrainian incursions into Belgorod Oblast are forcing the Russian military to divert forces from the frontline to Belgorod Oblast, although ISW has not observed such claims.

โ–ช๏ธ US sanctions continue to influence the financial sector in post-Soviet countries, as two banks in Kazakhstan recently banned the use of Russiaโ€™s โ€œMirโ€ national payment system to prevent secondary sanctions.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian forces recently made confirmed advances near Bakhmut and in east (left) bank Kherson Oblast amid continued positional engagements along the entire line of contact on March 21.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian officials continue to highlight the work of Russiaโ€™s defense industrial base (DIB) in supporting the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

"The destruction of French troops in Ukraine will be a priority and glorious task of our Armed Forces,โ€ said Dmitry Medvedev.

โ€œIt will be very problematic to hide a couple of French regiments, and therefore the issue of their systematic destruction will not be the most difficult, but extremely important task.โ€

โ€œBut for the roosters from the French leadership, this will be tantamount to the guillotine. They will be cut into pieces by angry relatives and evil representatives of the opposition, who were taught that France is not at war with Russia. And for other restless idiots in Europe it will be a good lesson.โ€

RECENT AFRICAN AND WEST ASIAN DEVELOPMENTS IN HUMAN TRAFFICKING AND SLAVERY


โœ๏ธ Written by Hikaru Kitabayashiโœ๏ธ

Human trafficking and slavery are inter-connected, and often thought of as the same thing. But, writing as a person whose confirmation bias is influenced by having slaves as well as slave-owners and slave-traders as ancestors, I do not find them so.

Slaves are real estate. Human trafficking is trade. The boundaries are blurred, but the distinctions are real.

A slave tends to be seen by the owner as a part of that individual's personal wealth. And, where a person's treasure lies, we can find a person's heart. If the slave-holder's heart is a good one and the slave's personality compatible, then the slave will become a much loved part of the slave-holder's unofficial extended family. On the other hand, if the slave-holder's heart is satanic, then the slave's life can easily become pure hell. Slavery has no moral defense, but, on the individual level, the results are highly variable.

With regard to Africa, extra-legal slavery can still be documented as still existing in Mauritania. However, because it has a several thousand year history, we find the pattern of self-perceived extended family membership of slaves being still quite common. Of course, the number of slaves is decreasing year-by-year due to owners having no property right protection. Nevertheless, some technically free people still designate themselves as the slave of a prominent person because of the respect others give them due to the perception that, if they are or once were that person's slave, that automatically means that they have a type of recognized extended family membership in a socially high-ranking group.

Though the situation is complicated in Mauritania, in Libya it is quite different. There, slavery is a recent phenomenon. It developed as a result of American-led NATO intervention. With the chaos that ensued with Qaddafi's assassination, slavery, as an institution, re-established itself on an extra-legal basis and public slave auctions started appearing in Libyan cities. We must presume that here conditions are much less benign than in Mauritania.

On the other hand, human trafficking, being the commodification of human misery, almost never serves the best interest of the person whose misery is being commodified. Being international in scope, human trafficking afflicts the whole world with Africa primarily being a net exporter to Europe. It is in this manner that part of the market demand in Europe for human body parts, prostitutes, children put up for adoption, and ultra-cheap, ultra-exploitable, extra-legal labor is supplied.

It should be emphasized that Ukraine is another human trafficking exporter. And, due to decades-long foreign destabilization efforts, various West Asian nations are, too.

However, human trafficking to Europe must benefit its organizers. Fingers have not only been pointed at privately organized criminal organizations, but also at national intelligence agencies. As in the case of the drug trade and a significant part of the crypto-currency market, some have maintained that human trafficking for some groups making up these deep-state institutions is a part of their business model, providing them a lucrative source of off-budget income that can be used for whatever purpose they might wish. On this basis, we can assume that foreign destabilization efforts in Africa and West Asia will not soon end.

African and West Asian countries, therefore, should not seek outside protection. No member of the Collective West would actually do more than just pretend to give assistance, because there would be no profit from actually helping. Salvation has to come from within, not without.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท French deputy mayor suspended for observing Russian presidential election denounces "a political trial"

The French Republican Party has initiated expulsion proceedings against Cyril Gaucher, deputy mayor of Talant, a commune in eastern France, after he served as an international observer at last week's presidential election in Russia, Gaucher told Sputnik Africa, adding that the party threatened to "call his career into question and throw him lower than dirt."

"It says a lot about democracy in France today," the official said. "People [...] realize that France, whether in its colonial days or today, has often tried to impose its own vision of things, and that the world today is multilateral."


Gaucher also denounced the ostracism of which he considers himself a victim.

"There is a strong resistance in France against a certain 'pensรฉe unique,' which mainly concerns the political world and the media," he said.


Regarding the Russian elections, which took place from March 15 to 17, he described "a very calm climate." "It wasn't a make-up, it wasn't an illusion," he explained.

This comedy sketch describes perfectly the role of people like Karine Jean-Pierre, Kamala Harris or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, bought and paid mouthpieces to portray a sense of diversity but most important to shut all dissenting voices calling out the Democratic party for what it is, a corrupted, warmongering, pro pharma and anti working class families nest of rats.

Mass shooting at Moscow concert hall called a terrorist attack

This Friday a shooting occurred at the large Crocus City Hall concert hall in Moscow, leaving numerous victims. Several people dressed in camouflage clothing opened fire inside the facility.
The Russian Investigative Committee opened a criminal case into the terrorist attack after a mass shooting occurred this Friday at the Crocus City Hall concert hall, located in Moscow province.

The organization indicated that an operational investigative group from the central apparatus of the Investigative Committee went to the scene of the events.

Several people in camouflage clothing and armed with rifles broke into the Crocus City Hall concert hall and opened fire on visitors.

According to preliminary data, 40 people died and more than 100 were injured, reported the Federal Security Service (FSB, for its acronym in Russian) of Russia.
A strong fire broke out at the scene and the roof collapsed.
Why Ukrainian military industry is on its knees

The Ukrainian military industry is incapable of filling the gap left after Western aid dried up. The hefty $60-billion package for Kiev remains deadlocked in the US Congress as the Ukrainian military is running out of weapons and ammunition. Why can't Ukrainian arms-makers catch up with Russia?

๐Ÿ”ถ Most of Ukraine's industrial might deteriorated soon after the collapse of the USSR due to endemic corruption and power struggles in Kiev, military analyst Alexei Leonkov told Sputnik.

๐Ÿ”ถ Ukraine can assemble drones and produce a few mortar rounds and Soviet-standard 122mm and 152mm projectiles, but it cannot make 155mm shells for NATO-grade arms, let alone air defense systems or high-precision missiles. "To build such a production, decades must pass", a director of the National Association of Ukrainian Defense Industries told the Washington Post.

๐Ÿ”ถ Ukrainian officials told the WaPo that the nation's budget is not enough to ramp up the production of weapons, while the West avoids investing in Ukraine's military industry. The US is uninterested in building Ukraine's industrial sector since American contractors already have a production hub in Poland, Rt.Col. Anatoliy Matviychuk, a Russian military expert, told Sputnik.

๐Ÿ”ถ A worldwide shortage of explosive chemicals caused by the crises in Ukraine and Gaza have disrupted supplies of gunpowder and rocket propellants to Ukraine.

๐Ÿ”ถ Bureaucratic red tape and rampant corruption in Ukrainian ministries amplify production stoppages.

๐Ÿ”ถ Russian air strikes on Ukrainian production facilities have curtailed Ukraine's ability to manufacture arms. Some production has been relocated outside Ukraine and other processes moved underground; production stages have been broken up and duplicated. All of that diminishes an already anemic output.

Medvedev:

To the families of those killed in the terrorist attack - sincere condolences, sincere strength to all the loved ones of the victims.

Terrorists understand only retaliatory terror. No trials or investigations will help if force is not countered by force, and deaths by total executions of terrorists and repressions against their families. World experience.

If it is established that these are terrorists of the Kyiv regime, it is impossible to deal with them and their ideological inspirers differently. All of them must be found and mercilessly destroyed as terrorists. Including officials of the state that committed such atrocity.

Death for death.
