Because I speak Ukrainian and Russian, I find key war details published in the local #Ukraine's media that is often inaccessible for the western press due to the language barrier. Here is a quote from the April 28 news report from #Uman city by the website Apostrophe. Locals said… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
2/ One of the top #Ukraine's military experts Olexiy Melnyk from the Razumkov Center think tank in his April 28 comment for the Obozrevatel website said that the Russians had a special interest in targeting #Uman city: "A part of the intercepted missiles could aim at the other… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
3/ The Russians could target #Uman to kill families of the #Ukrainian pilots (and pilots too) who can potentially be trained there to fly F-16s. I found a news report dated in 2017 in Liviy Bereg (Left Bank) news website that the Ukr. government fully restored the abandoned Uman… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Facebook reminded me that on this day 8 years ago my #Ukrainian military comrade Lt. Col. Volodymyr Sarychev was released from the Russian captivity where he spent 77 days after the battle for Debaltseve. That time I lived in #Ukraine and served in the Ukrainian army. With my… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
2/ The story of the capture and the release of my comrade Lt. Col. in February 2015 is interesting in the historical perspective comparing to the current, second, and ongoing Russian invasion of #Ukraine. He was captured in his car on the major supply road Debaltseve-Artemivsk… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
3/ After 8 years, the tactics of the Russian invaders is the same: having really poor army, they rely only on the Air Force and Navy with cruise missiles and PWC Wagner (with support from regular Shoigu army). Wagnerites penetrate the cities and strongholds (Donetsk airport &… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

1/ The retreating Russian forces mined the Kahovska dam across the #Dnipro river that holds a large reservoir, as Zelensky warned. If RAF blows up the dam, up to 80 settlements down the river incl. #Kherson city (that Ukraine is going to liberate) would be flooded. [Thread⬇️]
2/ By blowing up the Kakhovska dam to slow down the #Ukrainian offensive on #Kherson, the Russians will shoot themselves in a leg ➡️ the canal Dnipro-Crimea that brings water to the occupied Crimean peninsula may drain as well. (Photo is from social media and illustrative)
3/ By blowing up the Kakhovska dam, the Russians will also drain the large Kakhovski reservoir on the #Dnipro river. It may cause an emergency shutdown of the occupied Zaporizhzhya #nuclear power plant due to lack of water supply for cooling.(Photo is illustrative)

"Currently, any coup in Russia is impossible. The system there built in a way that people in power are interested to keep it as is. They have their assets & their world vision," explained Andriy Cherniak, a representative of Intel Directorate of Ukraine's MoD for RBK-Ukraina.
2/ "There are adequate people among them who realize that situation in Russia is critical. But they won't become locomotives of any shifts," said Cherniak.
3/ "But those who think differently - they are merely canceled or they are too afraid to take any radical actions," said Cherniak.

"By the end of spring, all of this will end. By the summer all will be finalized," said the chief of #Ukraine military intelligence Gen. Kyrylo Budanov in his interview for the #Ukrainian Obozrevatel news website. [Thread⬇️]
2/ Gen. Budanov said that by the end of this year #Ukrainian Armed Forces will greatly move forward: "Those will be significant victories. You'll see them soon. I hope that it will be #Kherson."
3/ As Gen. Budanov said, after the war's end, "a very serious political process will start that relates to changes inside Russia and certain regions will split."

1/ Everybody knows Chief Commander of the UAF 4-star Gen Valeriy Zaluzhniy. I’d like you to know more about who is enabling the success of #Ukraine military by providing correct intelligence. Meet the chief of the Intel Directorate of MoD Major General Kyrylo Budanov [on a photo]
2/ Kyrylo #Budanov is the youngest 2-star military General in #Ukraine. He became Gen. in 2021 when he was just 35 years old. Prior to that, he earned full set of 3 medals For Bravery for participating in secret UA operations against RU troops in the Donbas and Crimea.
3/ In Aug 2020, President @ZelenskyyUa appointed Gen. Budanov as a chief of military intel. On this post, he succeeded Col. Gen. Vasily Burba [on a photo] who planned to capture a group of Russian mercenaries of Wagner PWC but this operation failed & caused political scandal.
