Zelensky Spins Disaster into ‘Victory’ Again: The Kursk Offensive | w/ Mark Sleboda
We’re bringing back military analyst and professional cynic, Mark Sleboda, to dissect the Ukrainian forces' latest ill-fated 'weekend blitz in Kursk'—a total disaster that Ukrainian leadership has just forgotten (or pretends like it didn’t happen). Plus,…

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Oleksandrivka-Kalynivka direction: Russian forces advance in Dzerzhynsk
Situation as of 3:00 PM, January 12, 2025
Russian forces continue to successfully advance in several sectors within the boundaries of Dzerzhynsk. Over the past two weeks, the resistance of Ukrainian formations in the area has significantly weakened, allowing them to occupy most of the urban development and reach the industrial zone on the northern and northeastern outskirts of the city.
❗️In the 12th microdistrict, fighters from the 4th company of the 3rd rifle battalion of the 109th separate rifle regiment have raised the unit's flag on the slag heap of mine No. 10, confirming the stable control of the Russian Armed Forces over the nearby surroundings. North of the slag heap, assault groups are gradually approaching the slag heap of mine No. 12 and the industrial site of the "St. Matrona of Moscow" mine.
▪️In the Fomiha microdistrict, Russian units have been spotted on Volynska Street near the eponymous slag heap. It is unknown whether the fighters managed to establish control over the dominant height, and the status of the "Toretska" mine, on the outskirts of which fighting has been going on for the past few weeks, remains unclear. With its capture, one can state the almost complete liberation of Dzerzhynsk.

🇮🇷🇷🇺 Brigadier General Ali Shadmani, who currently holds the position of Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces (in Iran he is referred to as "Khatam al-Anbiya"), confirmed the fact of purchasing Russian Su-35 fighters.
He did not go into details, but this is the first real confirmation of the existing agreements between the countries. Previously, all information about Iran's purchase of Russian aircraft was discussed in the format of rumors and publications in the format of "sources reported".
➖ ➖ ➖ ➖ ➖ ➖
📌Given that Shadmani has finally made this information public, we can expect the appearance of Su-35s in Iran in the near future. Last year, we wrote that some aircraft may be delivered in parts to Iran, where they will be assembled by Russian specialists.
➖ ➖ ➖ ➖ ➖ ➖
This is an important step within the strategic partnership between Russia and Iran, which will further strengthen the relations between the countries. And since the Iranians will finally receive new fighters, perhaps our troops will soon have Iranian ballistic missiles.

🇷🇺🇺🇦✈️ The Orion UAV - a means of combating USVs in the Black Sea
The Ministry of Defense has published footage of the Russian Orion UAV operating in the Black Sea: this is, in fact, the first documented use of our combat drone to counter Ukrainian unmanned surface vessels.
This is precisely the way to fight USVs that we and many of our colleagues in the industry have repeatedly called for testing in the troops.
➖ ➖ ➖ ➖ ➖ ➖
📌Of course, it should be noted that drones have been used by the Black Sea Fleet to monitor the waters since the beginning of 2023, but this was chaotic and unsystematic. As they say, when the rooster pecked, then reconnaissance drones were launched into the air.
➖ ➖ ➖ ➖ ➖ ➖
The matter, as always, is in the notorious bureaucracy, which led to the fact that a whole squadron of Iranian "Mohajer" drones simply stood idle at the airfield in Taganrog.
❗️The fact that drones have finally been deployed to the Black Sea is a positive sign that creates a reason for cautious optimism. After all, it's much easier to send a "soulless" Orion/Mohajer than to send a helicopter against armed USVs.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Ukrainian public pages are spreading false information about an alleged Russian air strike on civilian infrastructure in the Sudzha area.
❗️It is reported that the Russian Aerospace Forces conducted an airstrike on a local boarding school. The enemy claims that up to 95 people are under the rubble.
🔻However, according to data from August, no more than a hundred residents remained in the occupied city, making it unlikely that they were all in one building.
▪️The images of the destroyed building published by the enemy were indeed taken in the area of the school, but they do not reliably assess either the scale of the destruction or the number of casualties.
▪️Most likely, the strike was carried out by Ukrainian formations in order to get rid of undesirable persons whom they had to maintain. And in this way, they also attributed the responsibility to Russia.
In fact, there were no flights of Russian aviation in the Sudzha area at that time. A week earlier, the accumulation of Ukrainian equipment and members of Ukrainian formations was detected near this school, which were engaged by the UAV operators of the Russian Armed Forces.
Thus, it becomes quite obvious that the enemy in the city is using the civilian population as cover, trying to avoid air strikes. Such actions are a provocation by the AFU and are aimed at further discrediting Russia's reputation in the eyes of the international community.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kursk Direction: Successes of Russian Forces in the Sverdlikovo Area
While Ukrainian formations are trying to conceal their involvement in the missile strike on Sudzha, the Russian forces continue to engage in fierce battles and gradually reduce the territory of the part of the Kursk Region occupied by the AFU.
Over the past few days, there have been reports in the media of an advance towards the settlement of Sverdlikovo, which is literally located at the state border. Assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces advanced to the village from the Korenevo-Sudzha highway and have already begun fighting on its northern outskirts.
It is noteworthy that Sverdlikovo was one of the border settlements through which the AFU invaded the territory of the Kursk Region on August 6 last year. At the same time, its liberation is not only symbolic, but also necessary for the offensive on Sudzha from the west through the 38K-030 highway.
