🧵/ The fourth day of fighting in the Kursk region. During this time, the fighting has spread to more than 600 square kilometers of Russian territory. I give a detailed account of the fighting and publish an English-language interactive map. 1/ I'll give a link to the map right away if you don't have time to read the whole thread - it's more or less regularly updated.
🧵/ African trap for Wagner PMC in Mali. Wh @pustota and @kromark we gathered all the available information, talked to ex-Wagner PMC fighter. Now I will explain how the battle near Tinzaouaten became the largest defeat of Russian mercenaries in Africa. 1/ I won't go deeply into the details of Mali's territorial delineations —you can read more about that in our article. Briefly: government forces control only the south and part of the center of the country, while the rest is predominantly controlled by Azawad, JNIM and ISSP.
