The War in the Ukraine

A scene from the BARS-Crimea mobile air defense group. The Bars-Crimea mobile group has been defending Crimea from Ukrainian drone attacks for two years. The unit uses foreign-made pickup trucks armed with machine guns, including one captured Ukrainian armored vehicle. With such weapons, the mobile air defense group can engage drones at a distance of up to 200 meters. Thermal imaging cameras are used to detect drones at night. Ukrainian drones are typically launched from Odesa and Mykolaiv, with dozens to hundreds flying daily. It's worth noting that it's physically impossible to repel all attacks, but their number can be reduced. Thanks to foreign satellite reconnaissance and Starlink systems, Ukrainian drones bypass air defense zones and attack Crimean infrastructure and military facilities from various directions.

Trump and Kremlin agreed to Feb 1. Zelensky was the only one saying it starts Jan 30.
