China has been fueling Russia's war in Ukraine: customs data shows

Ukraine releases video appearing to show Russian troops beating own wounded officer

Ukraine has released extraordinary video footage that appears to show Russian fighters dragging their badly wounded commander away from the battlefield, and then beating him violently with what appear to be shovels.
A Ukrainian drone captured the incident near the eastern city of Bakhmut, where intense fighting has been raging for months. Four soldiers from Russiaโ€™s Wagner mercenary group carry their colleague through a landscape of ruined houses, holding his arms and legs.
They then dump him next to a barn. A second video appears to show three men then hitting him repeatedly with shovels. The fate of the injured commander is unclear. But the episode tallies with persistent reports of low morale among Russian mercenary units.

The video can be seen inside the article.

In a statement shared on the Wagner Group's VKontakte page, Prigozhin made the claim while responding to a CNN inquiry asking why the paramilitary organization had decided to stop recruiting prisoners.
Prigozhin said that the decision was made because a recent Wagner Group recruitment ad "aimed at the American audience" had been a huge success, claiming that the ad had inspired millions of U.S. citizens to "fight against NATO."
"We received more than 10 million applications from US citizens wishing to join the Wagner [Group] to fight against NATO," Prigozhin claimed. "At the moment, we are considering about a million American citizens for employment. Therefore, we temporarily suspended the recruitment of volunteers from Russian prisons."
[...] a purported Wagner Group video aimed at recruiting sympathetic U.S. veterans did recently appear online, although it was unclear whether the clip was the same as the ad mentioned in Prigozhin's statement.

"The main goal of Russian troops remains to achieve at least some tactical success in eastern Ukraine," the Ukrainian official added.

This is Prigozhin's claim, not a credible source, he is just begging for Russian media attention. But it's still good to have confirmation.

Report says Russian government is operating network of camps where it has held thousands of Ukrainian children since start of war

The report contains disturbing new details about the extent of Moscowโ€™s efforts to relocate, re-educate, and sometimes militarily train or forcibly adopt out Ukrainian children โ€“ actions that constitute war crimes and could provide evidence that Russiaโ€™s actions amount to genocide, it said.
The report was produced as a part of the work of the US State Department-backed Conflict Observatory by the Yale Humanitarian Research Lab. The Observatory was established last year to gather evidence of Russian war crimes in Ukraine. [...]
โ€œConsider this report a gigantic Amber Alert that we are issuing on Ukraineโ€™s children,โ€ he said.
The report found that found that more than 6,000 children โ€” ranging in age from mere months old to 17 โ€“ have been in Russian custody at some point during the course of the nearly year-long war, although the โ€œtotal number of children is not known and is likely significantly higher than 6,000.โ€
It identified 43 facilities that are a part of the network, which โ€œstretches from one end of Russia to the other,โ€ including Russian-occupied Crimea, the โ€œeastern Pacific Coast โ€“ closer to Alaska than it is to Moscow,โ€ and Siberia, Raymond said.
โ€œThe primary purpose of the camps appears to be political reeducation,โ€ he said, noting that at least 32 of the facilities identified in the report โ€œappear to be engaged in systematic re-education efforts that expose children from Ukraine to Russia-centric academic, cultural, patriotic, and in two cases, specifically military education.โ€

At least 6,000 Ukrainian children detained in camps by Russia for political re-education. In some cases, children receive Z military education.
Of course, Russia denies doing so.

[Video on Twitter] - Nine TOS-1 heavy flamethrower systems have been lost by the Russian fascist invaders since the broad offensive began, including this one destroyed by Ukraineโ€™s 72nd Separate Mechanized Brigade. (๐Ÿ“น Command of the Land Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine)

The video shows the destruction of one of the rare Russian thermobaric rocket launchers. Thermobaric weapons, also known as 'vacuum bombs', use oxygen to create a high-temperature explosion. A second charge ignites after the initial explosion and can have a "devastating" impact. TOS-1 and TOS-1A 220 mm artillery systems can launch between 24 and 30 thermobaric rockets.


๐Ÿ›ธ Russians are still fond of bullshit prophecies
[Video on Twitter] - If you thought Russian propaganda shows were strange, here is an ad for a TV program that aired on Russian TV.


Russia Has 97 Percent of Army Deployed in Ukraine: U.K.
"We now estimate 97 percent of the Russian army, the whole Russian Army, is in Ukraine," British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said on Wednesday.
"If 97 percent of the Russian Army is now committed to Ukraine, with an attrition rate very, very high, and potentially their combat effectiveness depleted by 40 percent, and nearly two-thirds of their tanks destroyed or broken, that has a direct impact on the security of Europe," Wallace added.

Also, it seems that Russia can't launch a major offensive. Russian offensive in eastern Ukraine "more aspirational than realistic," Western officials say

On Russia's weather talk

  • The Russians prophesied that the Europeans would freeze, but it didn't happen
    [Video on Twitter] - "Europeans didn't freeze, and we really hoped for that" - Russian propagandist Skabeyeva.
    General Frost that Russia had such high hopes for, never entered the battle.
  • [Video on Twitter] - And how will Western people warm themselves when nuclear winter comes? - asks a Russian meteorologist, leading specialist of the FOBOS Weather Center, Tishkovets.
    We were shocked too
    If a nuclear winter were to happen, the whole world would be impacted, Russia would not be spared.
    ( Nuclear winter is a severe and prolonged global climatic cooling effect that is hypothesized to occur after widespread firestorms following a large-scale nuclear war. )

The internet has a memory
[Video on Twitter] - Exactly one year ago, on 16 February 2022, Maria Zakharova, representative of Russian ministry of foreign affairs, has indignantly denied the possibility of a Russian invasion in Ukraine and demanded apologies.


[Video on Twitter] - Anna Dolgareva, Russian propagandist, says: "denazifying means they all need to be killed, all adult population of Ukraine who resist - physically destroyed. And their children raised in Russian spirit."
Also, the Russian propagandist claims that Ukrainian adults who do not resist by taking up arms will be deported to Russia to be "denazified", which in the mouth of the rashists means re-educated.
Aren't Russians lovely?

๐Ÿค”The Russian puppet region near Moldova is likely to disappear in the near future.
Will all the "Russian enclaves" disappear before the Crimean Peninsula?
It looks like the Russians have changed commanders' heads again. It also seems that Russian tanks have been cut by about half.

In any case, Russian citizens will be treated better and supported better if they get out of there as soon as possible.
A week ago, a Russian journalist who interrupted a live broadcast with a placard "against the war" successfully escaped from Russia.(ะœะฐั€ะธฬะฝะฐ ะ’ะปะฐะดะธฬะผะธั€ะพะฒะฝะฐ?)
