Again about the crash of an American UAV off the coast of Crimea

The US Air Force European Command published a video from the camera of the MQ-9 Reaper drone that crashed (https://t.me/rybar/44625) into the sea off the coast of Crimea during a reconnaissance sortie on March 14.

▪️The video shows the approach of the Russian Su-27 fighter, which opens the release valve and douses the UAV with fuel. Then the Aerospace Forces aircraft makes the same second approach, after which the picture disappears.

▪️At the end of the recording, one can clearly see the deformation of one of the blades, presumably caused by the impact of a fuel jet. Apparently, it was this damage to the main rotor that caused the MQ-9 to fall into the waters of the Black Sea.

As we wrote earlier (https://t.me/rybar/44625), what happened was a logical consequence of the provocative actions of NATO aviation in the Black Sea. For months, alliance drones have been coming close to the Crimean coast and coordinating Ukrainian strikes on the peninsula.

It is quite possible that what happened will force the United States, if not to reduce intelligence activity in the region, then at least to stay away from Russian airspace.

NATO STILL LOOKING FOR TANKS FOR UKRAINE

The Ukrainian counteroffensive has two scenarios - Politico

The United States is actively providing assistance to Ukraine and is considering two scenarios:
▪️First - the Armed Forces of Ukraine will move from north to east, and then - to the south , trying to cut Russia's land corridor. This scenario is considered more likely.
▪️ The second scenario is that Ukrainian troops will immediately move south through Kherson towards Crimea. The big problem here is that Russian troops have dug in in the east of the Dnieper, and Ukraine does not have enough manpower to carry out landing operations.

Today the New York Times had a story, sourced to anonymous US and EU officials (as usual) that Ukraine is using up the men and ammunition they wanted for the "spring offensive" (presumably towards Crimea) to get chewed up in Bakhmut/Artyomovsk instead.

It's possible this is an attempt to communicate to Zelensky, via a major US outlet, that he needs to reconsider. I figure it's more likely that it's another part of a wider deception campaign aimed at Russia. But it doesn't really matter what I think, only what the Russian general staff makes of it. One way or another, we'll find out soon enough.

◾Ramzan Kadyrov reacted to a video of Ukrainian soldiers burning pages of the Quran , the main book of all Muslims, by the Armed Forces of Ukraine :

◾"I want to appeal to the so-called Muslims who allegedly fight in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. How do you like to be in the same ranks with the enemies of Allah? What excuse will you find for yourself on the day of the great judgment? There is no excuse for you! You will be damned, like those who dare encroach on the Holy Quran.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦🎯 Nazi Meeting with #Kaskad⚡️

🎬 A group of neo-Nazis, without waiting for reinforcements, set off from the forward positions to the place of detonation of the Banderamobile in order to collect the remnants of their brothers in arms. They did not manage to return back.

💥 They were escorted by artillery and ATGMs of the DPR's OBTF* Kaskad along the entire route.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦💭 Sometimes I wonder about the Meaning of Life⚡️

You can't escape such thoughts in hotspots.

Death and stench surround you almost around the clock. And although you yourself stay alive and perhaps even win, this environment inevitably devalues life.

A clearer analogy sounds like this: prison is home to both the prisoner and the warder. Yes, they are on opposite sides of the bars, but they are both in prison because they live by its laws and breathe its air.

When you're not a novice, death-watching, which used to be great fun and making a laundry list of songs to be sung at your funeral, becomes habit-forming, a general deadening of the senses and a bitter sludge in the heart.

Especially when you have lost loved ones who were in many ways the meaning that justifies being in the midst of death and stench.

The time for reflection and other mental exercises has certainly not yet come. Let's keep working!

👉👉👉 Ukrainian 46th Brigade:
❗️❗️ Attention everyone!
Some faggots (and we have no other words) decided to dismiss the commander of the 46th Brigade "Dome" for an interview with the Washington Post. In the midst of the war, they decided to dismiss one of the most combat-ready officers not only in the Airborne Forces, but also in the Armed Forces! Just think about it! One of the most combat-ready officers who has been fighting the orcs since 2014. 9 years! An officer who knows about orcs, their tactics, weapons not from a warm office in Zhytomyr, but from the trench! His battalion remained almost entirely in Soledar, and the commander said why and because of whom he stayed there. Or was he supposed to keep quiet? So ask the other combatants, ask the brigade commander - do you think they don't think so?
Do we have so many officers with combat experience? Do you want me to post here a list of officers killed near Kherson? Or near Bakhmut? We left 7 fucking company commanders near Kherson alone!!! You can also take pictures of the combatants.
We appeal to all the soldiers of the brigade: either you will support the commander, or next time you will rot in the trenches with some rooster sent to you from Zhytomyr. And another thing - Zaluzhnyi does not remove such officers. Neither does Mike. That's all we have. We ask for maximum repost.
Glory to Ukraine!

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

🤥🇺🇸🇺🇦卐: After all, it is true that the Pole gives 4 outdated migs. Further down, the advance is not restricted. That means, in troll language, that the Ukrop is losing decisively. And as usual the pathetic US milbloggers keep quiet about what the claimed results of the Nazi attempts are. Once again an embarrassing troll report that belongs flushed down the toilet along with its creators. 👉🚽

⚠️ 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 16 Key Takeaways 👻

▪️ The Russian Federal State Security Service (FSB) appears to be trying to penetrate the Russian defense industrial base (DIB) in a way that is reminiscent of the KGB’s involvement with the Soviet military and industrial base.

▪️ Wagner Group financier Yevgeny Prigozhin claimed that he received a press question exposing a plot spearheaded by Russian President Vladimir Putin and Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev to undermine and “neutralize” the Wagner Group.

▪️ Western news agencies confirmed that Chinese companies have sold military and dual-use equipment to unidentified Russian entities. These sales appear small in scale but could alleviate strain on Russia’s defense industrial base (DIB) and circumvent Western attempts to limit Russian access to microchips.

▪️ Syrian President Bashar Assad used a staged interview with Russian outlet RIA Novosti to amplify notable Russian information operations.

▪️ Polish President Andrzej Duda stated that Poland will give Ukraine four MiG-29 fighter jets.

▪️ Russian’s decision to redeploy elements of its “peacekeeping force” from Nagorno-Karabakh to Ukraine is eroding Russia’s influence with Armenia.

▪️ Russian President Vladimir Putin attempted to reassure the Russian public that the war in Ukraine will not have significant long term economic consequences, likely as part of the Kremlin’s effort to prepare Russians for a protracted war.

▪️ Russian forces conducted limited ground attacks northeast of Kupyansk and along the Svatove-Kreminna line.

▪️ Russian forces continued advancing in and around Bakhmut and continued ground attacks along the Avdiivka–Donetsk City line and in Western Donetsk Oblast.

▪️ Russian sources claimed that Ukrainian forces conducted localized assaults in Zaporizhia Oblast.

▪️ Ukrainian sources reported that Russian forces increased their naval presence in the Black Sea.
