#AF_RF are forced to increasingly use drones to attack Ukrainian critical infrastructure as they run out of stocks of precision-guided missiles, /1 Image
analysts at the Institute for the Study of War say.

On the night of December 29-30, #AF_RF launched 16 Shahed-131 and -136 drones at targets in Ukraine. According to the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Ukrainian air defense systems shot down all these drones./2
The drone attacks came after a massive series of Russian missile and drone strikes on Ukraine's critical infrastructure on December 29, during which #AF_RF launched 23 drones, most of which were Shaheds.

ISW notes that the use by the Russian military of 39 drones over /3
the past two days, the use of 30 Shahed-131 and Shahed-136 drones on the night of December 18-19, and the use of 13 Shahed drones on December 14 indicate a significant an increase in the number of recent cases of the use of these systems by Russian troops in Ukraine.

Russian forces have likely increased the pace of drone attacks even further in an attempt to support their campaign against Ukraine's critical infrastructure, even though their stockpiles of precision-guided missiles are likely depleted./5
The Russian military will likely continue to use an increasing number of these systems to attack civilian targets in Ukraine in a false attempt to break the Ukrainian will to fight."

Vladimir Putins krig måste nog vara världshistoriens värsta militära misslyckande möjligtvis med undantag av sioux- och cheyennindianernas slakt av general George Custers kavalleriförband 25/6 1876 vid Little Bighorn.

Precis som i Ukraina var det en kombination av ett idiotiskt anfall som möttes av en smart fiende med segervittring och bra vapen. Resultatet blev en total katastrof för de anfallande trupperna.

New day. And again at 9 in the morning. A time when we remember our fallen warriors. Those thanks to whom our state is still holding on and will continue to hold on.
Today, along with others, we remember the Hero of Ukraine, Captain Oleksandr Voytenko.

He graduated from the Higher Command Missile and Anti-Aircraft School, served in the Air Force, then in "Alfa" of the SBU. And he went to the front in March 2018 - he wanted to support his friends who were in Donbas. /2
To carry out combat missions in the OOS zone, he was assigned to the 59th Military Brigade.

A few days before his death, the soldier fell ill. His wife convinced Oleksandr to go to the hospital, but he kept repeating: "I can't leave the boys. That's right, bunny."

1) Russia is a revanchist, imperialist, genocidal and fascist state that closely resembles Nazi Germany. The Russian-Ukrainian war dispelled our illusions about Russia moving towards some form of internal normality and external balance.

It is known that Ronald Reagan called the Soviet Union an "evil empire."

- The Russian Federation is a potential evil empire that could be even worse. Potential empires expand and start wars, while established empires tend to be content with the status quo.
