There's a report that a BAE ammunition plant in Wales have caught fire. Coincidence? After the one in the US got burned? Makes 155mm shells?

Nice excuses to not supply enough ammunitions... but higher production rates also bring up the risk of incidents.

Lack of money doesn't help too...

Footage of combat operations in Ukraine has been published, with the participation of the maximum drone-protected Russian T-72 tank, also called the Tsar Tank. Despite the fact that the tank was previously damaged by Ukrainian artillery, judging by the video, it continues to be used. The Tsar tank T-72 was spotted in Krasnogorovka, where it was hit by cluster shells. And he was almost destroyed by a Ukrainian artillery strike, as shown at the end of the video. For some unknown reason, the tank drove to the factory building in the center of the village and returned back. Later it was reported that the tank delivered a group of military personnel.

That jammed turret tank is a punching ball more or less. It probably don't carry ammo for the main gun and just coaxial gun ammunition and ECM package. Would be interesting to sse the underside and the front to see if the driver compartment is reinforced too.

Looks like US Globahawk played a role in destruction of s400 battery and aircraft

Are the Russians really that scared of Biden administration? Are they afraid that if they shoot down an unmanned drone this administration would retaliate? Russians should call their bluff and I guarantee the US will do nothing but savage Russia with a strong worded letter/speech at UN.

Has the S400 destruction been confirmed?

They're nuclear superpowers. They should act very carefully around each other, especially when it comes to military matters. This makes the US's reckless behavior somewhat bizarre. One quick explanation I can think of is that the leaders perceive that they're declining and slowly getting desperate so they're willing to push the boundaries. Pray that the Russians stay coolheaded because otherwise, the situation could easily escalate and become extremely dangerous for the entire world.

No significant damage can be confirmed.

Red blanking out of supposed locations in the satellite photos are very suspicious. If there's real damage, show it. This isn't corpses, no need to censor it.

Pic of wrecked S-300 system can be archival, or even Ukrainian. It is not the first time, pictures of Ukrainian destroyed items were passed off as Russian.

High quality satellite images should not be hard to produce. They did it with the hits on the Russian sub and landing ships.

Dima of Military Summary YT channel has back tracked from the damage claims.

Previously he posted this. He did say the S-300 reports were unconfirmed.

Should be aware that to be fair, both sides use a healthy amount of decoys especially in the airfields. If you can see it in an airfield, maybe it is intended to be seen.

And so, Russian forces are now in the outskirts of Ochertino. Unconfirmed report that the AFU brigade defending that area, the 151st, disintegrated, possibly surrendered en masse just like the 25th and the 67th did recently.

Explosion in the BAE plant felt like an earthquake, according to a witness. Previously the site has been a target of pro Palestinian demonstrations, as it was making 155mm shells for the Israelis.

Or US doesn't give a crap and doesn't see Russia as a conventional power after two years of war against a neighbor Russia should have steamrolled. That could be one explanation.

Shooting down a drone aint escalating anything just ask the Iranians what the consequences were for shooting down a US drone.

Just call out US bluff...

No one killed in this video footage of a night action. Russian paratroopers assault this Ukrainian fire group, who immediately surrendered without a fight. This in the Artemovosk sector so near Chasiv Yar.

Ukrainian ammo depot and transhipment point gets hit by four FABs.


2S4 Tyulpan of the 238th working on Krasnohorivka. The 240mm shell has some impact which makes this Soviet era weapon highly desired in the battlefield despite the slow rate of fire and short range.


Shot by an ATGM of the 200th Brigade, this T-64BV ends up sliding backward and driving into the lake.
