LOL. ROFL. No, @GirkinGirkin is not actually Igor Girkin any more than Darth Putin is actually Vladimir Putin.
@GirkinGirkin is an anonymous account from someone who is likely in the Ukrainian military.

Wow, someone here is going to be upset.
Only place I’ve seen it reported that these are coming within “days” is in that Turkish website which was itself just reporting what Z said at NATO so I doubt it is true. I read Poland sent them five yesterday. Thats not going to go very far. Fact is the global supply is critically depleted and there’s no amount of PR that can change that.

I saw it on TD, and I knew you’d be upset.

One thing he kinda glossed over are FABs, which are absolutely decimating Ukrainian defenses. Big dumb glide bombs with a GPS guidance kit was and will remain a real problem for any Ukrainian defense.
Yeah, Ukraine has to be able to engage the planes dropping those bombs. That's part of why Ukraine continues to attrit Russian air defense, and when Ukraine gets Gripens with Meteor missiles, those Russian bombs will likely get dropped much further back, reducing their accuracy.
I asked ChatGTP how much further back:
quote:
A reasonable estimate would be:
Today: many Su-34s can release from roughly 50–70 km behind the front.
With a credible Meteor threat: they might choose to operate another 30–80 km farther back in many sectors.
So instead of releasing bombs 60 km behind the front, they might prefer 90–150 km, depending on circumstances. That's enough to reduce the effectiveness of many existing glide bombs. Some targets near the front could still be hit, but deeper Ukrainian positions would become much harder to reach without newer, longer-range glide bomb variants.

Except nobody made you a linguistic expert on written English and how would you know what a Slavic "construction" of phrases would sound like. It's a rhetorical question, I DGAF. Your depression laced passive aggressive quips are boring.
That’s a remarkably agitated response for a “rhetorical question” you’re pretending not to care about. You jumped to personal attacks far too quickly to retreat into smug dismissal now.
You care because you know you’ve been exposed, and your weekly beet ration depends on maintaining the pretense that you’re just another American poster.
Native English speakers do not say “a social turmoil,” “all minor and major towns,” or “subsist in denial.” Those are obvious translation artifacts. Insult me all you like, but you cannot insult your clumsy Slavic sentence construction into sounding like native English.

Russian gasoline production has fallen to about 65% of seasonal demand after Ukrainian drone strikes on refineries, Reuters reported. The daily shortfall is 40,000-45,000 tons, or about 35%, up from an estimated 25% deficit in June. The NORSI and Omsk refineries, Russia’s two largest gasoline producers, are offline, while the Saratov refinery has also halted production.

Ok, now it's reported that the fire at the Moscow refinery was not due to an accident.

The count on the Great Azov Sea Turkey Shoot is now 76, with another 28 vessels hit last night. Satellite data indicate there are another 45 - 50 vessels at anchor off Crimea that have yet to be hit.
Hard to believe but then... it's not hard to believe.

Whup, make that 82 vessels hit, 34 last night. The Ukrainians are not letting the biggest opportunity of the year pass by.

Remember that smug 2015 ribbon-cutting for the "energy bridge" from Russia to occupied Crimea? Last night it finally got the memo and joined the growing pile of scrap. One less power line from Kuban means one less way to keep the lights on for those trophy apartments in Yalta that Moscow loudmouths bought cheap after the land grab. No electricity, no fuel, just the sound of trolleys that wont run and summer homes nobody can brag about anymore.
We have hit fifty energy nodes and thirty-five tankers and cargo ships this month alone. The pattern is clear: every time they try to consolidate the loot, the bill arrives in precision strikes. This is not random payback. It is the slow, methodical isolation of their prize, exactly what happens when an empire pretends it can steal territory and then bill the victim for the infrastructure.
The useful idiots in the West still whisper about "negotiated settlements." Tell them to look at the concrete foundations now cratered by the sea. That is what imperial overreach looks like when someone finally stops appeasing it. Moscow cannot hold what it stole if it cannot power the theft. And we are only getting better at making sure it never will.
The favor runs the other way: every ruble we force them to spend on repairs is a ruble they cannot spend on new aggression against the next neighbor. Keep arming the only force in Europe actually burning down the logistics of a revanchist empire. The math is brutal, relentless, and working.

Crimea will soon have to be completely evacuated of all Russian civilians. Russia simply cannot supply it, and humanitarian conditions there will soon deteriorate.

Agree. I believe that is why the Kerch bridge is still standing. Ukraine is giving the squatters an exit ramp.

RPT Russia halts Don-Azov channel shipping, affecting grain trade, after Ukraine attacks
By Reuters
July 10, 20263:02 PM CDT
Summary
Shipping halt could affect almost one-quarter of Russian wheat exports
Border guards tell shippers that Kerch Strait ?passage requests had been halted from 6:10 pm local time
Euronext wheat ?rose as much as 4% to a six-week high on market talk about shipping halt
MOSCOW, July 10 - Russia temporarily stopped shipping through the Don-Azov Channel, a navigable waterway linking the Don ?River with the Sea of Azov, three grain export industry sources ?said on Friday.
The move followed a Ukrainian attack on 13 Russian vessels ?in the Sea of Azov on Friday, including 10 tankers. Market analysts note ?that up to one-quarter of wheat exports from Russia, the world's largest exporter ?of the grain, pass through the Sea of Azov.
One of the sources said Russia's border guards notified shipping companies that all requests for passage through the Kerch Strait, which links ?the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea, would not be accepted from ?6:10 p.m. local time on Friday. The border guards report to the FSB security service. ?The ?notification did not say when the halt would be lifted.
Russia's leading grain-producing regions, Rostov and Krasnodar, lie along the Sea of Azov. The country's second-largest port in the Black Sea region is located on the Kerch Strait.
Russia's agriculture and transport ?ministries did not ?respond to a ?request for comment.
