Young Blood: Zelensky Bets on New Generation, Battle-Tested Officers for Top Army Posts

All five used innovative tactics to win critical battles and led some of the AFU’s most-respected units to victory. Zelensky’s idea is to promote charismatic field commanders to top army jobs.

Their backgrounds...

I mean it really did suck from a “western propaganda” standpoint

Putin didnt say anything that 90% of us in either side of this didn’t already know that Putin believed…other than him saying Hitler did nothing wrong and Poland was dressed like a slut.

There was a real chance there to nuke American support for Ukraine and he kind of made himself look like a nazi.

Interesting that top Russian talk show commentator, Vladimir Solovyov, is calling for China, Iran and North Korea to each send 100,000 troops to Ukraine because they are running out of Russians.

Where is the WeeWee clip of Solovyov?

The Saudis have made their own 155 mm SPH so now they have entered the big business time of military contractors. There’s lots of money being made from this war, as any war in history some people get filthy rich. But the Saudis use the French CAESAR so it will have to be a really capable system to beat the French gun which is one the best in the world.

You need to understand. Just like Poland brought in WWII, Ukraine brought in this war.
History is repeating itself.

And now we have the real reason for Russia to launch their special operation. It wasn’t the Nazis, it was the long lines.

Another stupid phucker. He told everyone that Russian tanks were going to roll from the Donbas due its all flat, and conquer Ukraine and that it was only a feint to Kyiv.

The problem with that statement is from someone who should know, the east is a series of north/south ridges with small rivers between them.

I have an investment opportunity for you. It's a snow ski resort in Cocodrie!!!

Media: NATO may start coordinating Ukraine aid instead of US

by The Kyiv Independent news desk February 10, 2024 7:38 PM

Ukraine's allies are considering a change of plan to the format of the Ramstein summits which would see NATO coordinating military aid instead of the U.S., German media outlet Handelsblatt reported on Feb. 9, citing sources.

The Ramstein-format summit of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group (UDCG) comprises over 50 countries, including all 31 NATO members, and has been meeting regularly since April 2022 to coordinate military support for Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.

The next meeting will be held on Feb. 14.

One of the alleged reasons behind this consideration is the possibility of Donald Trump's return to the White House, according to Handelsblatt.

The media outlet's sources allege that U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan and NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg came up with the plan, which was discussed among NATO members this past week.

France and the U.K. are allegedly supportive of the idea, as well as Ukraine's Eastern European allies. But Germany allegedly worries that such a move would feed into the Kremlin's propaganda narrative that NATO is at war with Russia.

Good news all, Zelensky has a new special weapons program that he hopes will finally turn the tide. Some of you guys should look into joining up, would be a good fit:

Stalin's Russification of Ukraine after the murder and forced famine that killed 5 or 6 million seems to have had some effect.

Moscow should have never stabled their cousins in Kyiv in the back when the Mongols invaded.

Key Takeaways:

Delays in Western security assistance may lead to significant Ukrainian air defense missile shortages that could allow Russian forces to bomb Ukrainian forces or even front-line cities more aggressively.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky appointed Major General Anatoliy Barhylevych as Chief of the Ukrainian General Staff, replacing Lieutenant General Serhiy Shaptala

Russian drone footage published on February 9 showed Russian forces executing Ukrainian prisoners of war (POWs) near Klishchiivka in the Bakhmut direction.

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov reiterated several Kremlin narratives aimed at justifying Russia’s war in Ukraine and threatening the West at a ceremony honoring Diplomats’ Day on February 10.

Kremlin mouthpieces reiterated ongoing Russian narratives blaming the West, specifically the United States, for the absence of constructive peace negotiations to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, despite numerous Russian statements indicating that Russia is not interested in good-faith peace negotiations with Ukraine.

 The Russian State Duma is considering a bill aimed at further censoring actors designated as “foreign agents,” likely aimed at censoring dissent from opposition media outlets and prominent information space voices.

Russian forces made confirmed advances near Kreminna and Avdiivka.

The relatives of mobilized Russian soldiers continue to protest throughout Russia despite previous Kremlin efforts to censor similar protests and suppress any possible resurgence of a broader social movement in support of mobilized Russian soldiers.

Russian and occupation officials continue to set conditions for the deportation of Ukrainian children from occupied Ukraine through educational and extracurricular schemes.

British Defence Intelligence
INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 11 February 2024

There are indications that Russia's war in Ukraine is contributing to a shortage of healthcare professionals across Russia. Shortly after mobilisation of the Russian military in September 2022, healthcare professionals were warned not to leave the country; however up to 2% of Russian doctors and healthcare professionals did leave the country to avoid the draft. Additionally, up to 3,000 medical staff have likely been mobilised to assist in combat medical care.

In November 2023, the Russian Ministry of Health stated that the medical sector lacked about 26,500 doctors and 58,200 nursing staff. There is a significant shortage of doctors in 22 regions, and in another seven it is assessed as severe. Another estimate from January 2024 suggests that in the previous 15 months, the number of doctors declined by 7,500 - with many blaming long hours and low pay. The Duma Committee on Regional Policy and Local Government noted in its report on the 2024 budget that poorer regions of Russia in particular would have problems financing medical salaries.

The heavy resource and financial burden of supporting Russia's war in Ukraine is negatively affecting a range of civilian sectors that serve the Russian population. There are no signs that the trend of reducing numbers of healthcare professionals in Russia will change during 2024.
