Is Ukraine setting conditions near Tetkino? A Russian 2S43 Malva 152mm self-propelled howitzer was destroyed near Kalinina, and a Russian military truck was destroyed in Vesseloe. This is in addition to the 10 August 2024 reports of communications knocked out.

Russia has started building static defenses south of the E-38 Highway near Rassolovo and the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant. Construction on Unit 2 is suspended. Yes, both operational reactors are RBMK-1000s built before Chornobyl, but they have added safety upgrades.

Korenevo AO

There are conflicting reports about Snagost and Krasnooktyabrskoe. Reports on Snagost cover the spectrum from Ukrainian liberated, ongoing fight, and Russian control. We split the difference.

We moved Krasnooktyabrskoe back to Russia claimed

There was a small argument on the team that Russian info about fighting in Viktorovka was both the one by Mala Loknya and near Uspenovka - info was getting conflated. (e.g. Myrne vs Myrne)

We did not adjust the map, but the area by Uspenovka is lit up on NASA FIRMS.

We noticed that the media is quoting our work (with attribution). Thank you, and hello. There is more about us at the end of the thread.

We pulled back the Ukrainian advance in the direction of Snagost because, after multiple Russian claims, there's no evidence.

Ukrainian forces announced the capture of Sudzha and are visually confirmed in the village of Dmitriukov, 4.82 km from where Ukrainian troops made their capture claim at the Gazprom offices in Sudzha

Presidential Immunity

My wife was born, went to university, and started her career in a country where the government collapsed.

Years ago I asked her, what were the warning signs? What was going on in the months, weeks, and days before the government failed?

1/12
Her answer stunned me.

"Nothing."

You ate dinner, cleaned up, went to bed, woke up in the morning, and the news tells you the government failed.

No warning signs.

Nothing.

It just happened.

Yes, the news talked about the problems before, but collapse? Never.

2/12
In the immediate days that follow, you wake up, get dressed, make your tea, eat some bread and sausage, and get on the bus to go to work - or walk if it is a nicer day.

People talk about what's happening, but life goes on.

Until it doesn't.

The attempt to add amendments to HR 8035 exposed the pro-Putin Fifth Column in Congress. 12 congresspersons submitted 24 amendments that were based on or were pure Kremlin propaganda.

Say hello to the US House of Representatives Fifth Column.

🧵1/14 Image
Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia led with 10 of the 24. She touched on almost every Kremlin talking point and submitted at least 13 additional amendments.

Nazis, Christian persecution, biolabs which not even the Kremlin pushes anymore, Transcarpatha, Zelenskyy legitimacy

Coming in second place was Andy Ogles, a Republican from Tennessee. Ogles submitted 3 amendments based on pure Russian propaganda, Nazis, and more Nazis, and fed the narrative that the US is providing direct military support in amendments 2, 3, & 73

Three questions.

1) Does the Geneva Conventions/International Humanitarian Law consider oil refineries a civilian target?

2) Does established US Military doctrine consider refineries civilian targets?

3) Has The Hague or the UN ever considered the question?

A 🧵 1/11
The @ICRC is the keeper of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and is assigned by the Geneva Conventions as the international watchdog. IHL is published online, with the doctrine of dozens of miliaries and previous case law. Here is the link.

2/11

ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-i…
Rule 8 of IHL defines a military target. The original 1907 language was clear, but the Geneva Conventions added ambiguity by changing "military works" to "military objective" without definition.
