Kupyansk strategic direction.
The AFU urgently began to transfer personnel and equipment of three brigades from Kramatorsk and Dnipropetrovsk to Kupyansk. An evacuation headquarters was formed in Kupyansk.
Analysis of the operational situation indicates an attempt of the enemy to organize counterattack measures in the direction of Sinkovka and Kislovka.
At the same time with operational reserves of people and equipment in the opponents are just as bad.
In my humble opinion, Kupyansk will fall faster than Avdeevka. If the dynamics of combat operations of the RF Armed Forces is maintained, we can talk about the beginning of May this year.

๐ฉ๐ช๐บ๐ฆ Germany has probably already lost more than 200 billion euros due to the conflict in Ukraine, primarily due to rising electricity prices, Marcel Fratzscher, president of the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW), told the Rheinische Post.
According to him, the โeconomic costs to Germanyโ in connection with the conflict in Ukraine โprobably exceed 200 billion euros.โ โAbove all, high energy costs caused growth in Germany to decline by 2.5 percentage points, or โฌ100 billion, in 2022, and by a similar amount in 2023 until today,โ he added.
At the same time, the German government will continue to support Ukraine as much as possible, but on the condition that Germany does not become a belligerent party, said Cabinet spokesman Steffen Hebestreit.

An analysis of Russian political leadership from the Carnegie Endowment published in 2020 dispells two prevailing myths in the West concerning the interplay of power in Russian politics. It's unsurprising that they are the two most parroted by neocon think tanks and pundits in order to demonize the Russian President, Vladimir Putin:
"...Two further common misconceptions refuse to die. One is that Putin makes all high-profile decisions by himself and that nothing important gets resolved without him. Another is that Putinโs omnipotent friends routinely put pressure on him and orchestrate many important decisions. Neither of these is close to the truthโbut, given how opaque and unpredictable Russian elite politics is, itโs easy to understand how these misconceptions take root. Informal powerโfor example, the influence that the head of a large state-owned corporation has over a government ministerโplays a huge role in the system that is hard to quantify. This problem is especially acute in times of crisis, such as the present."
The issue I take with this statement isn't in the content, it's how disingenuous it is to call these myths "misconceptions." They are misinformation delivered with intent, to harm the reputation of the Russian Federation and to call into question the legitimacy of its government.
The name of the white paper, The Putin Regime Cracks, should make this apparent before even a cursory glance. The intent here wasn't to dispel myths. This paper is a deliberate contravention of the stated purpose of the non-governmental organization which conducted it. The intention here isn't establishment of international peace but manipulation of the political framework of the Russian Federation.
So, should it surprise anyone that the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace was placed on the list of foreign agents in April of 2023? Should we be shaken by the clearly undemocratic supression of such a principled organization's ability to promote cross-culltural peace and understanding? The author
While this white paper offers a framework for understanding, it does with ulterior motives. Reading for content is encouraged; forming opinions based on provided context is not.

Maxuel was a policeman until 2019, when he was expelled and arrested for killing his own brother. After he was released on bail awaiting trial, he ran away to Ukraine where he became a tiktok soldier with 120000 followers.
We thank Russia for making sure scum like this won't be in our streets.

The Inspector General of the US Department of Defense said that the Pentagon failed to prepare adequate plans in advance to support the weapons transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine - Bloomberg
We are talking about M2A2 Bradley ODS-SA infantry fighting vehicles transferred to Ukraine, various variants of Stryker armored personnel carriers, M1A1SA Abrams tanks, and MIM-104 Patriot air defense systems.
As an example, it is stated that the Pentagon provided only basic training courses in the operation and maintenance of the MIM-104 Patriot air defense system, as well as initial parts and materials, but subsequently did not organize advanced training for Ukrainians using the equipment and their further provision of spare parts.

โThe Department of Defense provided Ukraine with armored vehicles and air defense systems without a plan to ensure their long-term usefulness. While the Department of Defense is currently working to develop such a plan, the lack of foresight on this issue is troubling and must be addressed immediately,โ the Inspector General said.
As an example, it is stated that the Pentagon provided only basic training courses in the operation and maintenance of the MIM-104 Patriot air defense system, as well as initial parts and materials, but subsequently did not organize advanced training for Ukrainians using the equipment and their further provision of spare parts.
Without planned material support, including spare parts, ammunition, and maintenance, โthe Ukrainians would not be able to maintain these weapons systems,โ the inspector general concluded.
