Kursk, day 2

According to Russian channels, the density of air defenses prevents them from using air power

That's interesting 🤔

🧵Short thread on tank vulnerabilities and mobilization in Ukraine

Let me share two interesting discussions: one with a Swiss Major General and one with an executive of a large US companies operating in Odesa The Swiss General has a long career in the military intelligence. For those who do not know, the rank of General does not exist in Switzerland in peace time.

Because he was deployed abroad (yes, I know...) and for reasons of etiquette a received the rank of General, He is technically a "Divisionär".

BREAKING ‼️ There are strong rumors that General Teplinsky and/ or Russian milblogger '13' died in the Kherson area when the Ukrainian aviation struck their command point on a ship





13 had over 220K followers on Telegram

I think he is dead

Russians have analyzed a Magura naval drone from Ukraine

The russians claim that the build quality is low. the frame is thin and according to them explains why the drone is prone to wash ashore



The engine compartment is in aluminum, integrated into the boat using construction polyurethane.

Between the engine and the outer top cover there is a space that is divided. There are boxes with equipment there. This solution simultaneously cleans the engine from fuel vapors and reduces the thermal heating of the boat cover = thermal visibility.

More about the downed Russian A-50

This is the analysis of Ukrainian analyst Alexander Kovalenko, a few major points: The situation is unique: losing TWO AWACS in a short period of time in the rear airspace is a historic first time!

Today's photos from the test site near Volnovakha, where the Himars rocket arrived.
The Russians lined up and waited for some commander, who apparently was on his way to give awards or a review.

By the way, the commander never arrived.
😂

ATM I can't be sure of the authencity of those pictures, but here we are as reported


There is a lot of cube meat

🧵A small thread with a few videos of the failed Russian attack on Avdiivka today and yesterday per reports

The tactic is reminiscent of Vuhledar. This morning Ukrainians have announced staggering losses for Russia over 30 tanks and over 90 APV

#Avdiivka

Staromlynivka ‼️

It seems that the battle for Staromlynivka has started. This is a very key point for the Russians and the Ukrainians. Please refer to previous tweets for more context.
The Russians have understood it and they are calling on Shoigu to send reserves that he does… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

"The crucified boy in panties"🧵

If you follow Ukrainian channels, you would have noticed that the Russians are sometimes called the "boys in panties"
This thread gives you the context, it is a story about antisemitism and Russian fakes (@11Knuk123 FYI ) The crucified boy (Распятый мальчик) is a Russian fake about Ukrainians from 2014 when Ukraine was fighting on its own the Russian invasion.
On July 9, 2014, the famous Dugin wrote a story about Ukrainian atrocities in Donbas against "ethnic Russians" and then broadcasted

Antonovsky bridge & Kherson front UPD‼️

1. Recap
For the past week or so, a group of Ukrainian soldiers occupy the Antonovsky bridge on the left bank of the Dnipro river (east). Per Russian sources, this grouping varies between 50 to 120 members and allegedly 3 tanks ... ...have also crossed.
the grey zone extend into the Dachi area up to the entrance of Oleshki (I published several tweets about it, please check it for more information)

Russians do not manage to knock out the Ukrainians thanks to arty and potent EW by UA

Bilhorod People's Republic UPD ‼️ 🧵

Russians do not have artillery on the border, Russian helicopters were used today instead.

Russia has few electronic warfare systems on the border. Ukrainian drones can easily fly and direct the fighters on the ground. There are no special personnel in the border area, except for patrolmen.

The communication between the lower level and the high command of the armed forces of the Russian Federation is lame. It took a lot of time for the Russians to react

Another propaganda fake 🤣🤣🤣
In Russia, the "crash of the Ukrainian plane in the Bryansk region" was reported and showed a photo of the "pilot"

#Russia He flew allegedly on that blue plane, and he was armed with an AKS-74U

🤣🤣🤣👇
I have a couple of followers who are Russian propagandists like Vladlen Tatarsky who died today.
Among them, @Romanov__92 who has a TG channel with 78K followers.
On his channel he has a chat bot where anyone can send him tips or coordinates of Ukrainian positions..

https://twitter.com/StaticCityRec/status/1642483825853845508

One of the Ukrainian channel I follow took advantage of that.
You know the Moscow boys are obsessed with HIMARS, right? They claim to have destroyed dozens of them, but how many photos have you seen of a destroyed HIMARS?
So the Ukrainians send him a picture of a destroyed...

‼️The Russian urban combat cheat sheet👇

A few days ago, Ukrainians made a small breakthrough in the Zaporozhye area and took over the Russian checkpoint. They found the 10 rules of urban combat for Russian soldiers. Some of them are maybe surprising, like "When moving in pairs or triples, in no case should the enemy be wedged between the fighters. If this happens, you should shoot in the direction of the enemy, regardless of the presence of your comrades in the house sector."
Or
