The War in the Ukraine

3 days and 30% of Ukraine's energy infrastructure are gone. At this rate another week and it will be back to Kievan Rus.

I'm skeptical about the effects of this on the battlefield given military installations will have their own on site power supply, but it's going to hit the general running of the country big time. Ukraine is not exactly known for infrastructure development to start with.

Video of the inspection of the bomb truck:

The guy that inspected was a Ukrainian agent.

"The Russian security services published a video of the truck that exploded on the Crimean bridge, and explained that the one who searched it was a Ukrainian army intelligence agent, who impersonated a security inspector.
The security services also explained that the accused used a virtual phone number purchased on the Internet, and called himself "Ivan Ivanovic."
As part of the criminal case regarding the bombing of the Crimean bridge, 5 citizens of Russia and 3 citizens of Ukraine and Armenia were arrested, all of whom participated in the preparation of the crime".

Russian security thwarted terrorist attacks with "Igla" missiles in the Moscow region and its suburbs

According to Russian intelligence, among these actions was the use of "Igla" man-portable air defense systems.

A statement issued by the Russian security said: "The preparation of the Ukrainian secret service to carry out acts of sabotage and terrorism using high-precision weapons in the Moscow region was prevented. Against this background, a Ukrainian citizen born in 1972 was arrested."

According to the available field information, the above-mentioned man, on the instructions of the Ukrainian Security Service, secretly transported the Igla missiles in a car from Kyiv through Estonia to Russia, to be used in carrying out terrorist acts, and after arriving in the countryside of the Russian capital, he hid them in a secret location.

The Russian security service added: "The detainee confessed his guilt and asked for forgiveness and is currently cooperating with the investigation."

During the search, the security men found in his possession the discarded weapons as well as modern communication devices to communicate with the Ukrainian intelligence.

It will knock out most of the rail network and this is how large amounts of men and equipment are still moved around. More importantly it is how fuel and ammunition is moved to the front. Even supply trucks will be useless if the fuel trains stop running.

There are some noises now on the Russian side of telegram saying Wagner has made it inside the Bakhmut and advancing, they city may change hand soon. 93rd AFU brigade broadcasting that evacuation of government officials and civil servants are now under way.

A loaded M113 getting hit by RPG's or something similar.


Captured drone. The design doesn't seem like a DJI drone or what you can typically find on TaoBao or AliBaba.


Edit: its a british Malloy T150 cargo drone

Anti-aircraft missile missed target which was apparently a Kalibr

Attacks on electrical power centers continue

I would let them do repairs replace transformers etc, watch them and when they are done, strike it again until they have have exhausted their spare parts supply

Also that German radar is one ugly thing, jeeze

Turns out Musk has indeed been disabling the Ukranian's Starlink comms. Twitter shills and bots insulting him won't make things any better, either.

On Twitter, Musk said he could not comment on battlefield conditions, saying "

." But speaking to Eurasia Group political analyst Ian Bremmer in late September, Musk appeared to confirm that the satellite service was being intentionally disabled.
