Tbilisi is now in full color revolution script. The government did the absolutely stupidest thing imaginable and gave in to "protester" demands, "unconditionally" withdrawing the foreign agents bill. Did that stop the demonstrations? Oh hell no — they're back again this evening. Because now nothing short of regime change will do, obviously.

The thing about color revolutions is that they hinge on the government — or rather, its inherent psychological weakness. The entire point is to browbeat the rulers to blink and surrender. If they don't, the coup-by-proxy fails. The Kiev events of 2014 were actually an aberration in that the US-backed Nazis employed overt violence when the script failed.

Unfortunately, the Georgian Dream lost their nerve as well, it seems. Imagine declaring that “The machine of lies was able to present the bill in a negative light and mislead a certain part of the public,” as they said in a statement, and then giving in to the said machine?

The ColRev monster smells weakness like sharks smell blood. This isn't over, and it's going to get worse now.

Ukraine's first use of the "smart bomb" JDAM — Ukrainian Army strikes Bakhmut

The first footage of the use of the "smart bomb" JDAM near Bakhmut, near Kurdyumivka, has appeared, the Ukrainian publication Strana reported. The bomb was dropped by aviation.

Earlier, it had been reported that the new US military aid package for Ukraine would also include high-precision airplane bombs, but it was not reliably known whether they had been transferred or not. Now we are seeing the results of US "support" sponsoring terrorism and Nazism.

◾"Ukraine denies". -

- Ukrainian authorities denied any involvement every time there was a terrorist attack or a war crime carried by their own troops, or a strike in an EU country by their own missiles...

◾It's so often in the western headlines that something has to start resonating in the brains of the general public.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 By trial and error: how the West is preparing the AFU for the wrong type of war — Military Chronicle and Rybar's analysis

In October, the head of the European diplomacy Josep Borrell said that by the end of March it is planned to train more than 11 thousand Ukrainian soldiers at the training grounds of NATO countries. Up to the end of 2023, this number may exceed 30 thousand people: the British have already trained 10 thousand people since June 2022; it is planned to train 15 more in other European countries.

The editorial staff of the Military Chronicle and the Rybar team looked into the subject and explained what is wrong with the training of the AFU according to NATO standards.

🔻The main problem

It is difficult to apply the acquired skills on the battlefield: numerous prisoners of war, trained in NATO countries, have repeatedly questioned the effectiveness of training according to Western methods. According to them, at best, the training was superficial and did not guarantee an advantage on the battlefield.

🔻 What's wrong with the training?

Western nations have not participated in high-intensity conflict since the Vietnam War or since World War II. Instructors of various specialties have just participated in local operations. People are being trained along the lines of the wars in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan.

The experience of fighting against militant groups in the Middle East and Africa is barely applicable to the Ukrainian conflict. Infantry units are mostly trained not to fight in forests and fields, but to clear houses and residential areas.

🔻Trial-and-error method

The other side of the problem is the lack of real experience in live firing of various complexes. The NLAW, Panzerfaust 3, or Gepard anti-aircraft systems have been used in limited numbers only during exercises before the SMO began.

NATO instructors do not have the necessary experience and knowledge to properly use these weapons in combat. Now NATO is actively gaining the experience of Gepard for the new training program, but it will take years to implement it.

The AFU are quite capable of mastering the whole range of weapons under combat conditions - and in a much shorter time than at Western training ranges. But training is often conducted almost by trial and error.

🔻 And what about the training base?

For effective training of Ukrainian units in the West, there is not enough equipment, weapons and material base. The personnel is being taught to operate NLAWs or Javelins on special simulators: real ammunition is out of the question. Before the beginning of the SMO in the West such simulators were ordered exactly as many as it was necessary to train the regular number of cadets. At the moment, there are not enough such complexes for everyone.

The automatic rifle firing during training abroad often does not exceed two cartridges, and weapons for that are brought from the nearest units.

🔻 What does this imply?

Despite loud statements about the huge number of Ukrainian units trained to NATO standards, there are problems in the effectiveness of training. They are accumulating, because in the West they rely on training the maximum number of people in a short period of time. There is no point in talking about the quality of training in such conditions.

The training program for the AFU infantry units has already been cut to three, and in the case of the combined arms units to two.

Probably by Oct-Nov, the number of Ukrainian units trained according to NATO standards will really reach 30,000 men. But claiming to be trained according to NATO standards and commissioning fully combat-ready units that can turn the tide of war are different things.

After returning to the battlefield, soldiers and officers of the AFU face real conditions that are strikingly different from the theoretical ones.

The pattern of use does not change - "human resources" packed in a Western wrapper and costing much more, are used to plug the gaps and try to buy time in the future.

⚔️🇺🇸🐮💩 Analysis of the Situation in Ukraine by US Milbloggers of "Institute for the Study of War" (ISW):

🤥🇺🇸🇺🇦卐: Besides the usual rants, US amateur milbloggers are also spreading conspiracy theories today. The rags seem to have no shame barrier at all. 👉🚽

⚠️ 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.

💬 The Text is quoted verbatim, including the often horrifying misspelling of localities. The respective source is linked in the footer.

🔻 March 10 Key Takeaways 👻

▪️ US intelligence warned that individuals with ties to Russian intelligence may be planning to attempt to instigate an insurrection in Moldova.

▪️ Russian forces continue to establish defensive lines in areas in rear areas far from current frontlines and areas in Russia that will likely never see fighting.

▪️ Russian Commissioner on Children’s Rights, Maria Lvova-Belova, confirmed that the Russian government is using a variety of schemes to deport Ukrainian children to Russia in a comment that was apparently meant to disprove Western allegations of the illegality of these actions.

▪️ Russian sources claimed that Russian forces conducted limited ground attacks along the Svatove-Kreminna line.

▪️ Russian sources claimed that Wagner Group forces entered the built-up AZOM industrial complex, and frontal assaults on the complex will likely be costly for Wagner Group forces.

▪️ Russian forces made gains in Bakhmut, are clearing eastern parts of the city, and have advanced to new positions in northwestern Bakhmut within 800 meters of the AZOM metal processing plant.

▪️ Russian forces continue reconnaissance activity near islands in the Dnipro River delta.

▪️ The Wagner Group continues to expand efforts to recruitment efforts in Russia.

▪️ Russian officials and occupation authorities continue to announce new infrastructure projects to increase connectivity between the Russian mainland and occupied territories.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦💡 Strikes on a Non-Operational Power Unit at #KrivoyRog TPP⚡️

💥 On 9 Mar 2023, Russian troops launched 👉 massive strikes against energy infrastructure in #Ukraine. One of the targets again was the 👉 Krivoy Rog TPP in #Zelenodolsk. Unlike the last attack, when the plant's engine room was damaged, this time the missile did not reach its target.

The thing is that the shell hit the eighth power unit, which had been out of service for several years already. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukrainian industry and population shrank significantly, and since 2014 coal stopped coming from #Donbass. As a result, both energy consumption and the ability to maintain generation of coal-fired thermal power plants decreased. Therefore, some facilities were simply shut down.

Such a fate befell the eighth unit at the Krivoy Rog TPP, but several others are still operational. Among those that have survived previous shelling and are generating power are the first and second units, which are located at the other end of the building.

Taking them out of service would deal a serious blow to power generation in #Dnepropetrovsk region, and in particular in the industrial and mining-rich Krivoy Rog district.

▪️ Coordinates of the operating power units:

47.544900, 33.658107; 47.545147, 33.656716

▪️ Impact Location: 47.543945, 33.658367

📌 Earlier, our team compiled a list of key enemy infrastructure facilities whose removal would accelerate the collapse of #Ukraine's energy system.
