๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Author of analytical Telegram channel Balkan Gossiper @balkanossiper exposed the lies about Serbian arms deliveries to Ukraine

The past week was marked by a sensation: in the Russian segment of Telegram was full of rumors that Serbia had been supplying weapons to the Kiev regime. For several days in a row, authors of major channels published "evidence" of the arrival of the shells in Ukraine, and the Serbian leadership was hit with a barrage of angry comments from indignant Russian patriots.

It all started on February 27, when a major Russian news website published a video of 3,500 Serbian Grad MLRS rockets, allegedly destined for Ukraine, in a warehouse in Bratislava. And if you look closely at the export permit, you can see the inscription in Serbian, which reads: โ€˜Under the terms of the contract, the items are intended exclusively for the use of the Turkish defense complex.โ€™

Images of the warehouse quickly started circulatin on the web. Of course, they were accompanied with scathing comments about the "traitor brothers who supply weapons to the Ukrainian armed forces.โ€ Representatives of the Serbian arms factory were forced to deny the rumors: the official statement of Kruลกik said that the company was in no way connected with the sale of weapons to the end user from Ukraine and found itself at the center of the scandal because of the journalistsโ€™ unprofessionalism.

However, a large-scale campaign against the Serbian authorities has already been launched on the Web. In pursuit of sensationalism, information was spread from all the channels that "Defense Minister Vucovic" had allegedly confirmed supplies to Ukraine, and that Serbia had done that under pressure from the EU. None of the authors were confused by the fact that there is no Minister Vucovic in Serbia. His name is Milos Vucevic, and he did not make such statements.

The non-existent minister is by no means the only blunder of the hype fans. Literally the day after the release of the video from Bratislava, "irrefutable evidence" appeared on the Net that Serbian ammunition had already been delivered to Ukraine. The arrival of Kruลกik products to Ukraine was "confirmed" by the first image that popped up in an English-language search engine when searching for "missile. Moreover, the photo taken by Madeline Kelly had already been used in a completely different context by the German and Spanish press in the design of their news materials.

As for the documents published by Mash, not only Kruลกik representatives had doubts about their authenticity. A close examination of the "export authorization" revealed that it was issued by the Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Telecommunications, although a special government commission issues permits for arms exports in Serbia. In addition, the document contains a code that corresponds to the export of flour to Montenegro.

The Turkish mediator Arca Savunma Sanayi Ticaret in Serbia also raises many questions. The legal address of the office in Belgrade is unheard of, and the person in whose name it is registered died back in 2021.

Thus, the telegram "experts" have forgotten the main journalism law: check the sources and reliability of the information published.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Many people know that Serbia is a friendly state for Russia. Of course, there were no arms deliveries from Serbia to Ukraine: there is no evidence of this, and the statements attributed to the non-existent Serbian Minister of Defense have been fabricated.

But the level of elaboration of the fake and the coordinated information campaign in the Russian segment of Telegram convinces us that this is almost certainly a special operation of Ukrainian and British intelligence.

The goal is the same โ€” to make countries quarrel with each other and deprive Russia of another ally in Europe. Hopefully, the fact that Russian journalists and readers realized this in time will prevent the damage that this action could cause to bilateral relations.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆโ˜ ๏ธ The Web continues to discuss the Attack by Ukrainian Saboteurs on the Border Villages in the #Bryansk Regionโšก๏ธ

โ–ช๏ธ One point is striking - yesterday, Mikhail Podolyak, advisor to the head of the Ukrainian presidential office, denied accusations against the Ukrainian authorities of organising the attack. He claimed that the #Bryansk region had been attacked by some Russian partisans and that the AFU was not attacking civilians.

โ–ช๏ธ But here's the problem, the British Financial Times later published a fragment of an interview with one of the attackers, Denis Kapustin. The far-right militant said that the raid had been agreed with the Ukrainian authorities. According to him, without the agreements with the AFU, the group simply would not have been able to reach the border.

๐Ÿ“Œ We previously wrote that members of the Russian Volunteer Corps are closely linked to the AFU and are under the full patronage of the GUR.

Against the background of yesterday's statements by Podolyak, the interview with Kapustin only confirms that Ukraine is simply using the militants as a pads on which crimes against Russian civilians can be pinned and suspicion diverted from itself.

Except that in this interview the militants themselves indicated that they were working in close cooperation with the AFU.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆโš”๏ธ Boris Rozhin on the Situation in and around #Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut) in the Evening of 4 Feb 2023; pub. 20:29โšก๏ธ

๐Ÿ”น Based on the enemy's actions today, we can say that the enemy is not only pulling some units out of #Artyomovsk, but is also preparing for a gradual withdrawal to the western parts of the city (hence the undermining of the remaining bridges).

๐Ÿ”น The reserves transferred to Chasov Yar are used for counterattacks at #Krasnoye and towards #Kleshchiyevka to regain partial control of the Chasov Yar - #Krasnoye #Artyomovsk road.
โž– At the same time, retaining control over #Khromovo and #Bogdanovka enables the AFU to retreat in small groups, which is important as the defence line in the city itself shrinks.

๐Ÿ”น The fact that this line of conduct would be used by the enemy was pointed out back in October when plans for the defence of #Artyomovsk were discussed.

๐Ÿ”น The success of these actions by the enemy depends on holding #Bogdanovka, #Khromovo and #Krasnoye, the loss of even one of these three settlements would be a disaster for those AFU forces that remain to the east of them. Therefore he will not surrender them without a fight.

๐Ÿ”น The mechanized reserve concentrated near Chasov Yar acts as an "insurance" and "fire brigade" in case events accelerate and a terminal scenario threatens the AFU forces in #Artyomovsk.

โš”๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ’ฉ Analysis of the Situation in Ukraine by US Milbloggers of "Institute for the Study of War" (ISW):

โš ๏ธ It is difficult to endure the pathetic texts. So, the Bryansk attack, in which civilians were murdered by Nazi terrorists, was carried out by smurfs. On the military situation, the amateur bloggers have failed again. Simply embarrassing filth, what the US Nazi supporters are able to produce.

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

๐Ÿคฅ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆๅ: Here is the result of the "marginal territorial gains". A short while ago, the amateur troll milbloggers wrote that they see no danger for Bakhmut. Otherwise they bore us with much smoke for nothing, as usual. ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿšฝ

๐Ÿ”ป March 3 Key Takeaways ๐Ÿ‘ป

โ–ช๏ธ Ukrainian forces appear to be setting conditions for a controlled fighting withdrawal from parts of Bakhmut.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian officials continued to release limited information about the March 2 incursion in Bryansk Oblast but failed to provide clarity about what actually transpired.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian President Vladimir Putin did not address the reported situation in Bryansk Oblast in an emergency meeting with the Russian Security Council according to the meetingโ€™s readout.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian authorities continued efforts to portray Russia as the only safe operator of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), likely to constrain the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) presence at the ZNPP and compel the de facto recognition of Russian ownership of the ZNPP.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian forces continued offensive operations along the Kupyansk-Svatove-Kreminna line.

โ–ช๏ธ Russian forces continued ground attacks along the Donetsk Oblast front line as Ukrainian forces appeared to prepare for a controlled withdrawal from at least parts of Bakhmut.

โ–ช๏ธ The Kremlin continues efforts to increase government oversight of the Russian defense industrial base (DIB).

โ–ช๏ธ Russian occupation authorities continue to prepare occupied territories for the September 10 Russian regional elections.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Despite the endless talk about freedom and the European option, the Ukrainian reality shows again and again exactly the opposite picture. Square has long become a country of total censorship, where any point of view that differs from the approved "party line" is immediately suppressed. Since 2 March, a centralized system for automatically blocking Internet resources starts working in #Ukraine.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆโš”๏ธ Military Expert Boris Rozhin on the Situation in the #Artyomovsk (#Bakhmut) Sector on 4 Mar 2023; pub. 21:57โšก๏ธ

๐Ÿ”น1. At the Moment
, a cauldron has not yet been formed near #Artyomovsk. The enemy is still able to exit the city. Video confirms that the AFU is carrying out a controlled withdrawal of some units.

๐Ÿ”น2. There is a Build-Up of the AFU grouping in the area of Chasov Yar. Additional forces from the #Slavyansk - #Kramatorsk agglomeration are being redeployed. For the time being, these forces will be used to deter attacks by the Wagner PMC in the direction of the road through #Khromovo and for counterattacks in the direction of #Kleshchiyevka and on the Chasov Yar - #Krasnoye - #Bakhmut road.

๐Ÿ”น3. The Obvious Plan of the AFU command is a gradual controlled withdrawal of troops from #Artyomovsk, with intermediate positions in the western quarters of the city and near the AZOM plant. The success of these plans depends on how effectively the enemy reserves can counterattack our advancing forces and retain at least partial control of the roads and terrain west of #Bakhmut to enable withdrawal of personnel if no equipment can be withdrawn.

๐Ÿ”น4. The Ground and Terrain are heavily muddy - some of the equipment can only retreat along the one road the enemy has left. It is under fire. According to Ukrainian sources, it is possible to drive there at night.

๐Ÿ”น5. Our Troops are striving to establish tighter fire control over the road and to strengthen fire control over the area west of #Bakhmut in order to prevent the withdrawal of some units. The enemy is betting on holding the defences in the city for as long as possible by units of various "Volkssturm", mercenaries and other rabble.
โž– They will try to draw the most useful units for future operations out of the city (UAV units, special forces, etc.). "Volkssturm" and mercenaries can be sacrificed by exchanging them for a while.

๐Ÿ”น6. Our Forces have not entered #Khromovo yet. The enemy retains the ability to defend in #Khromovo and hold the neck of a potential #Artyomovsk cauldron while maintaining supplies. They are playing a completely dangerous game here, because with our breakthrough in #Khromovo anyone remaining to the east of it will be trapped and unlikely to be able to retreat.

๐Ÿ”น7. The AFU has the option of unblocking strikes at the expense of reserves near Chasov Yar and mechanized units, at least up to two tank companies and artillery, which can be transferred from #Slavyansk and #Kramatorsk.
โž– But the enemy is not yet ready to fully invest in deblocking operations, because the situation for the AFU north of Seversky Donets in the direction of #Torskoye is deteriorating. They have to keep part of their forces to cover the front sections near Krasny #Liman and #Yampol, where fighting will resume soon enough.
โž– The enemy is seeking to dose its forces near #Artyomovsk, but if the crisis develops faster than the Ukrainian command expects, it will have to make more efforts for operations against Wagner to the west of the city.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆโš”๏ธ Battle for #Bakhmut - Situation until the End of 4 Mar 2023; pub. 22:36โšก๏ธ

๐Ÿ”น Fierce Fighting
continues in and around #Bakhmut. Assault squads of the Wagner PMC, supported by the RF Armed Forces regular army, are breaking through the defences of the Ukrainian grouping.

โ–ช๏ธ Over the past 24 hours, control has been established over 20 AFU strongholds in various areas. "The "Wagnerians" advanced towards #Bogdanovka (in the NW), #Khromovo (in the W), and Ilyinovka, Sobachevka and Budenovka areas in #Bakhmut.

โ–ช๏ธ As of yesterday, the command of the AFU grouping in #Bakhmut began a partial withdrawal of forces from the town along the countryside roads between #Khromovo and #Krasnoye - the road from #Khromovo to #ChasovYar is under full fire control of Russian units.

โ–ช๏ธ During the night, while trying to withdraw from #Krasnoye, two groups of various formations have been destroyed, including AFU units from the 24th, 54th, 110th Mechanized Brigades, 81st Air Assault Forces' Separate Airmobile Brigade and 113th Territorial Defence Brigade. Casualties amounted to 26 killed and 64 wounded.

โ–ช๏ธ The Ukrainian 93rd Mechanized Brigade's command is now conducting counterattacks, supported by Ukrainian Forces of Special Operation detachments on the road sections to Chasov Yar and #Konstantinovka to deter the "Wagnerians" and gain time.

๐Ÿ”น The AFU is withdrawing its forces from the central and western districts of #Bakhmut. For the time being, the most combat-ready formations are withdrawing from the combat zone.

Meanwhile, individual units are resisting and conducting sorties, creating a corridor for troops to retreat under artillery and aviation strikes by Russian forces.

๐Ÿ“Œ These efforts are aimed only at buying time and delaying the Russian units as much as possible. The battle for #Bakhmut is nearing its conclusion.
