[Chernovec] Kherson: the situation at the Andreevsky and Berislavsky sections
as of 12.00 October 15, 2022
In the Berislav sector, early in the morning, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, with the forces of two battalion-tactical groups of 60 infantry and armored vehicles of 17 tank brigades, launched an offensive from Novaya Kamenka to the line of Dudchany - Mylovoe - Novogrigorovka with the task of cutting communication lines and gaining a foothold on the bridgehead.
▪️Fire support for Ukrainian formations is provided by cannon and rocket artillery crews from the position area in Petropavlovka.
▪️At present, fierce fighting continues. Servicemen of the 205th Brigade, 140th Regiment and 810th Infantry Regiment of the RF Armed Forces hold the defense in this area. Subdivisions of the 126th Guards Coastal Defense Brigade, reinforced by special forces from the 10th Brigade, are in reserve.
▪️In the area of Davydov Brod, the movement of personnel and equipment was also noticed. With a high degree of probability, the forces of the 46th Separate Airmobile Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will also attempt to storm Russian positions at the Sadok-Borozenskoye line.
At the same time, the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not use all the reserves to break through this section. Two armored personnel carriers are trying to penetrate the defensive lines of the RF Armed Forces before the main forces arrive.
Also, the option of a “false” strike to divert attention from the main direction, which could be the Nikolaevsky sector or Russian positions in the Zaporozhye region, is not ruled out.
❗️The Lukashenka regime has handed over at least 22 more tanks to Russia.

[Jpost] Belarus said on Friday that Russian troops would soon be arriving to take part in a "regional grouping" of forces to protect its borders.
"Troops from the Russian component of the Regional Grouping of Forces will start arriving in Belarus in the next few days," the Minsk defense ministry said.
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said earlier this week that his troops would deploy with Russian forces near the Ukrainian border, citing what he said were threats from Ukraine and the West.

[An Nahar] Russia has promised free accommodation to residents of Ukraine's partially occupied Kherson region who want to evacuate to Russia, a sign that Ukrainian military gains along the war's southern front are worrying the Kremlin.
The Moscow-installed leader of Kherson, one of four regions illegally annexed by Russian President Vladimir Putin ...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances... last month, asked the Kremlin to organize an evacuation from four cities, citing incessant shelling by Ukrainian forces.
Vladimir Saldo, the head of the Moscow-appointed regional administration, said a decision was made to evacuate Kherson residents to the Russian regions of Rostov, Krasnodar and Stavropol, as well as to the Crimean Peninsula, which Moscow annexed from Ukraine in 2014.
"We, residents of the Kherson region, of course know that Russia doesn't abandon their own, and Russia always offers a hand," Saldo said Thursday.
Russia has characterized the movement of Ukrainians to Russia or Russian-controlled territory as voluntary, but in many cases those are the only evacuation routes residents of occupied areas can or are allowed to take.
Reports have surfaced that some Ukrainians were forcibly deported to "filtration camps" with harsh conditions. In addition, an News Agency that Dare Not be Named investigation found that Russian officials deported thousands of Ukrainian children - some orphaned, others living with foster families or in institutions - to be raised as Russian.
Ukraine's recapturing of occupied areas in the country's east and south and an Oct. 8 truck bomb explosion on a prized bridge linking Russia to Crimea have led to domestic criticism of the Kremlin's handling of the war and increased pressure on Putin to do more to turn the tide in Russia's favor.

They have weapons, missiles and shaheeds," "which they use against Ukraine. They still have the opportunity to terrorize our cities and all Europeans, to blackmail the world. But they have no chance. And they won't. Because Ukraine is moving forward."
22:43 Western officials have begun secretly developing plans to prevent panic and chaos if the Russian Federation still decides to use nuclear weapons in or near Ukraine, a Western official said at a briefing on condition of anonymity, writes The Guardian. He stressed that the West still considers a nuclear crisis "highly unlikely", but Western states have decided to reconsider plans to provide emergency assistance and support to the population, which is afraid of nuclear escalation.
22:39 Estonia, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland sent proposals to the European Commission for the ninth package of sanctions, in which, in particular, they propose to introduce the same restrictions against Belarus as against Russia, Polish Radio reported citing the document.
21:53 The Insider writes that an FSB officer and a Wagner PMC mercenary fled Russia, asked for asylum in France and are testifying.

20:26 This week, Belarusian servicemen were informed about the ban on leaving the country, writes Nasha Niva. The exception is trips to the Russian Federation.

During the day, the police received information about four more burial sites.
19:16 Podolyak commented on the conflict between Ukrainians and Elon Musk: "Let's be frank. Like it or not, Elon Musk helped us survive at the most critical moments of the war. Business has the right to its own strategies. Ukraine will find a solution so that Starlink continues to work We expect that the company will provide a stable connection until the end of the negotiations."
At the same time, the adviser to the head of the Presidential Office spoke about the ideas of “reconciliation” between Ukraine and Russia: “We don’t want a world war,” says Emmanuel Macron. This is what Elon Musk says. But you definitely won’t stop the barbarians by tearing Ukraine apart! The Russian Federation only scales up the war, makes it endless, adds instability to the world. Evil must be stopped and punished. It's time to understand this."

The strategic initiative is in our hands, so the main thing is not to stop."
18:37 Russia has begun to gradually reduce its rhetorical threats of nuclear weapons, Podolyak said in an interview with Bild: "Today we see that statements about the nuclear threat have drastically decreased in Russian rhetoric - if you ignore propagandists and talk about officials. This is a pretty good sign. Russia recognized that it could wage war with conventional weapons, but any attempt to use nuclear weapons would lead to an immediate response."
18:28 The IRIS-T air defense complex is already operating in the southern direction , Yury Ignat, speaker of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, said on the air of the telethon.

He stressed that the Regional Grouping of Forces of the Union State is an exclusively defensive project.

17:45 The Ukrainian army has no problems with the payment of funds, with ammunition or winter uniforms, Reznikov said on the air of the telethon. According to him, today the winter uniforms are already being delivered - these are hundreds of thousands of kits that are distributed directly to units on the front lines. The minister clarified that, first of all, the front line units will be provided, and then the uniform will be transferred to the rear units.
17:37 The International Committee of the Red Cross said that it cannot "break through by force" to the Ukrainian prisoners of war illegally held by the Russian Federation, and "shares the disappointment" of Ukraine. The organization claims that it is "ready now and was ready before" to visit the colony in Yelenovka and any other place where prisoners of war are kept. However, in addition to providing access at the government level, this requires practical agreements to be implemented on the ground: "We cannot gain access by force to a place of detention or internment where we have not been admitted."

Russia stated that if it is not allowed to participate in the investigation, it will not recognize its results.
16:34 Putin allowed the termination of the grain deal due to the explosion on the Crimean bridge: "The FSB stated that, most likely, the explosives for the emergency on the Crimean bridge were sent by sea - but it is not yet known whether the grain carrier was used. If it turns out that the grain corridor was used for the preparation of terrorist attacks, this will call into question the grain deal, but so far there is no such information."
16:32 Putin commented on the detention of a man in Moscow for listening to Ukrainian music: "We resent attempts to abolish Russian culture and should not behave in the same way."
16:29 Power engineers managed to stabilize power supply throughout the country, now the power system is working stably, Shmyhal said. According to him, since yesterday there have been no rolling blackouts across the country. At the same time, the throughput capacity of the main energy networks is now reduced due to numerous destructions, the power engineers need time to recover. During this time, it is critical to reduce the load on the networks in order to avoid accidents, so the call remains relevant to voluntarily reduce consumption during the day, and especially during the morning and evening consumption peaks.
16:25 Putin said that now there is no need for massive strikes against Ukraine, "well, at least now, for now, well, we'll see there." According to him, seven out of 29 objects were not hit, as planned by the Ministry of Defense, "but they are getting there gradually."
16:11 Putin said that he did not set the task of destroying Ukraine as a state: "We do not set ourselves the task of destroying Ukraine. Ukraine blocked the water in Crimea. The troops had to go in and open the water in Crimea. This is an example of the logic of our actions. They wouldn't do it this action, there would be no opposition."
15:59 Putin said that within two weeks all "mobilization measures" would be completed. According to him, no new proposals from the Ministry of Defense on mobilization have been received and are not planned. He also stated that the line of contact with Ukraine is 1100 km, it is impossible to protect it only by contract soldiers, so they were forced to announce mobilization.
According to Putin, 222,000 of the planned 300,000 people have already been mobilized in Russia. At the same time, 33,000 mobilized are in units and 16,000 are already performing combat missions.

The appointment of the head of the Tula region to the leadership of the Ministry of Defense is being lobbied by a group of critics of Shoigu headed by Kadyrov. The replacement will take place in the event of continued failures at the front, Nestka writes, citing its sources in the Presidential Administration and the Caucasian embassy.
According to the publication, such a transition is already being discussed in the Kremlin. In a dispute in absentia between Kadyrov and the Ministry of Defense, the Kremlin sided with the Chechen leader, as evidenced by his quick promotion to the rank of colonel general. Now one Caucasian governor-general is pushing a Tula governor to the high post: Kadyrov calls Dyumin "elder brother."

Among them are commanders of batteries, platoons, vehicles and commanders of unmanned aircraft, as well as snipers.
14:40 Lukashenko said that during the next talks with Erdogan in Ankara he plans to discuss the topic of Ukraine.
14:37 The Russians still have about 300 Iranian drones left, Reznikov said on television. According to him, the Russian Federation plans to purchase another batch of several thousand such drones. The minister added that the Ukrainian military has learned how to shoot them down and is developing new ways to deal with kamikaze drones.
14:30 The Ukrainian military is using new tactics on the battlefield, according to a joint statement by the security and defense forces on the Day of Defenders and Defenders: "Today, our defenders and defenders skillfully use the most modern weapons, including Western-style ones. New tactics on the field combat, used by Ukrainian soldiers, not only gives the victorious results expected by the whole country, but also receives the highest marks from world military professionals.

Therefore, you should not cross those lines, as the Russians say, red lines. to cross them ... As for nuclear weapons, any weapon is a weapon created for something. If there is a weapon, it is clear that it is created for use. Russia has clearly outlined its position: God forbid there will be an attack on the territory of the Russian Federation, in this case Russia can, if necessary, use all types of weapons."
Lukashenko stressed that "never, including President Putin, the leadership of Russia has set itself the goal of using nuclear weapons in Ukraine. There is no such need."

13:03 Adviser to the mayor of Mariupol, Petr Andryushchenko, denied the information of the Russian propaganda media that the Armed Forces of Ukraine allegedly fired two rockets towards the port. In fact, according to him, air defense worked twice over Mariupol: over the Levoberezhny and Kalmiussky districts. Sources say that fragments of an air defense missile fell, in particular, in the area of a farm in the village. Sartana, resulting in a fire.
Andryushchenko stressed that all the air defense alarms were not even close in the Primorsky region and definitely not on the way to the port. In his opinion, in this way the propaganda is trying to create the illusion of "struggle and security" - just like yesterday another non-existent "Azovites" were caught.
12:56 Reznikov published statistics on the use of high-precision missiles by Russia in Ukraine. "The demilitarization of Russia. By using hundreds of high-precision missiles against civilian targets in Ukraine, the aggressor state reduces its ability to strike at military targets. Two conclusions: Russia's military defeat is inevitable; Russia is a terrorist state," the minister wrote.
12:53 Saldo said that there is no strict recommendation to leave the Kherson region, only if desired and possible. According to him, so far there are few people who want to leave the region.
12:51 Lukashenko said that a counter-terrorist operation was not announced in Belarus, but a "high terrorist threat regime" was introduced: "Due to the escalation, a regime of such an increased terrorist threat has been introduced. Therefore, we have begun procedures with the deployment of an allied group of troops, which is based on the army of Belarus , which is already being supplemented by parts of the Russian Federation".
12:48 The Armed Forces of Ukraine shoot down up to 90% of the Shahed-136 Iranian kamikaze drones produced by the Russian Federation, Danilov said on the air of Radio NV: “As for the Shahids. Unfortunately, yes, sometimes they break through. But the number of Shahids who shoot down our the military, our air defense forces, other units involved in this process, already reaches 85-90%, depending on the day. They launch a lot of them."
12:44 In the Kiev region, all educational institutions will continue to work remotely until October 21 - such a decision was made at a meeting of the operational headquarters of the Defense Council of the Kiev region due to the increased threat of rocket attacks, the IVA reported.

Here he said bluntly: If you arrive at the place and say something is wrong here, they immediately shoot. Without trial and without investigation. "
12:35 In Zaporozhye, the number of those killed from an enemy strike on a high-rise building on October 9 has increased. Two more people were released from the rubble - a total of 13 dead are known, search work continues, said Anatoly Kurtev, secretary of the City Council.

"An anti-terrorist operation has not been carried out on the territory of the Republic of Belarus and is not currently being carried out. The information disseminated on the Internet is unreliable," BelTA writes, citing a source in the KGB. According to the newspaper, “planned training events are currently taking place in Belarus in order to maintain a high level of readiness of the subjects of the fight against terrorism to carry out tasks as intended.”
11:38 Lithuanian Defense Minister Arvydas Anusauskas announced that the repaired PzH 2000s are returning to Ukraine.

10:43 With every day of the war, Russia is weakening, and its stock of precision-guided missiles is decreasing, said NSDC Secretary Alexei Danilov in an interview with Radio NV: "Our intelligence works flawlessly. We know with a mathematical error the number of missiles remaining on the territory of the Russian Federation. We are talking precisely about high-precision ones, which give us the greatest concern. As for other, Soviet samples, for example, the S-300, there are few of them, but already much less than it was on February 24. " Danilov clarified that approximately 25-28% of the missiles remained in the arsenal of the Russian Federation from the total number that they had on February 24.
10:28 In Ukraine, the head of one of the departments in the Moscow government, 28-year-old Alexei Martynov, died. He was mobilized with zero combat experience on September 23, and already on October 10 he died, said Natalya Loseva, deputy editor-in-chief of the RT propaganda channel.
10:24 The court of Simferopol arrested for two months, until December 8, five defendants in the case of the explosion on the Crimean bridge, Russian media write.
10:18 The General Staff announced the approximate losses of the enemy on the morning of October 14th. The enemy suffered the greatest losses in the Kramatorsk and Bakhmut directions.
personnel - about 64,300 (+500) people liquidated,
tanks - 2521 (+10),
armored combat vehicles - 5172 (+5),
artillery systems - 1566 (+10),
MLRS - 362 (+5),
air defense systems - 186 (+3),
aircraft - 268 (+0),
helicopters - 240 (+0),
UAV operational-tactical level - 1199 (+17),
cruise missiles - 316 (+0),
ships/boats - 16 (+0),
automotive equipment and tankers - 3944 (+9),

10:09 Last night, Russian invaders launched a missile attack on the Kholodnogorsk district of Kharkiv, hitting the road surface was recorded, there were no casualties. An infrastructure facility was damaged by four rocket strikes in the Chuguevsky district. Previously, one person was injured, Oleg Sinegubov, head of the OVA, said.
10:01 Military from the air command of Skhid destroyed four kamikaze drones over the Dnieper and Nikopol regions tonight. In the Sinelnikovsky district, the enemy fired at the Mezhevskaya community, one person was wounded. Also, the enemy fired at the Nikopol district with Grads, heavy artillery and drones, people were not injured, said the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military District, Valentin Reznichenko.
09:42 In Nikolaev, emergency rescue work continues in a five-story residential building after night shelling on October 13. In total, five people were released from the rubble, the rescued 11-year-old boy died in the hospital. As a result of yesterday's massive missile attack on Nikolaev, the number of victims is seven people, said the head of the OVA Vitaly Kim.
09:38 British intelligence reports that over the past three days, pro-Russian forces have launched a tactical offensive in the direction of the center of the city of Bakhmut, Donetsk region. Parts of the 2nd army corps of the pro-Russian militia of the Luhansk region, probably advanced into the settlements of Opytnoe and Ivangrad to the south of the city. There have been few, if any, other settlements captured by regular Russian or separatist forces since early July.
At the same time, analysts note that the forces led by the Wagner PMC have achieved some success in the Donbass. Russia likely views the capture of Bakhmut as preparation for an offensive against the Kramatorsk-Slavyansk region, which is the most significant in the Ukrainian-controlled part of the Donetsk region. Russia continues to conduct offensive operations in the center of Donbass and is moving forward very slowly. However, the overall operational plan is undermined by Ukrainian pressure on its northern and southern flanks, as well as an acute shortage of ammunition and manpower.
09:31 British Defense Minister Ben Wallace accused Macron of violating one of the principles of nuclear deterrence - non-disclosure of his plans. So he commented on the statement of the President of France that Paris would not use nuclear weapons if Russia uses them in Ukraine. "This reveals President Macron's cards," Wallace said.
09:25 Over the Left-bank district of Mariupol, the air defense of the invaders worked, said the adviser to the mayor of the city, Petr Andryushchenko.
09:07 In the Donetsk region on October 13, law enforcement officers found the bodies of four previously dead civilians - two in Liman and two in Yakovlovka. Six more people were injured yesterday, Pavel Kirilenko, head of the OVA, said.
09:04 Zelensky congratulated the defenders of Ukraine on their holiday: "You are fighting for Ukraine, independence and freedom for all future generations. Absolute heroes. People with a capital letter."
08:54 The American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) believes that Russia, inflicting missile strikes on Ukraine, "calms" Russian nationalists and its supporters in this way. Meanwhile, public reports of the first deaths of ill-trained mobilized Russian troops in Ukraine have sparked a new wave of criticism of the Russian military command. And the deterioration in morale, discipline and combat effectiveness of Russian troops could lead to a temporary suspension of offensive operations in certain areas, experts say.
Analysts also note that Russian forces are likely using Iranian Shahed-136 drones to strike critical Ukrainian infrastructure due to their low effectiveness in active hostilities.
08:05 Over the past day, units of the Defense Forces repelled enemy attacks in the directions of the settlements of Terny, Experienced, Veseloye, Nevelskoye, Odradovka, Ivangrad, Bakhmut, Novaya Kamenka and Dry Pond, the General Staff reports in the morning summary .
06:31 This morning, the enemy hit Zaporozhye with three S-300 missiles. Infrastructure facilities were damaged, fires broke out. According to preliminary information, there were no casualties, said the head of the OVA Alexander Starukh.
03:15 SpaceX Ilona Musk asked the Pentagon to take over the cost of maintaining Starlink in Ukraine, since he can no longer pay for them, writes CNN, citing documents. Musk sent a letter to the US Department of Defense at the end of September. The letter indicates that by the end of the year this amount will be more than $120 million, and over the next 12 months - another $400 million.
02:23 Lukashenka decided to carry out covert mobilization, the Belarusian media outlet Nasha Niva writes: "The decision to mobilize in Belarus has been made. It will be held under the guise of a military fitness test." The publication adds that Lukashenka made a fundamental decision to carry out covert mobilization to increase the staffing of combat units.
01:52 A "counter-terrorist operation" regime has been introduced in Belarus, the armed forces and special services "are ready to rebuff any provocations from neighboring countries," Foreign Minister Vladimir Makei told Izvestia. "There was information that some neighboring states were planning provocations related almost to the seizure of certain sections of the territory of Belarus," he said.
00:44 According to Western military estimates, Ukraine can regain control over the western bank of the Dnieper in the Kherson region as early as next week. More details - in the material of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, getting closer to Kherson .
00:12 Strategic bombers capable of carrying nuclear warheads were deployed to the Russian airbase Olenya near the border with Norway, the Norwegian edition Faktisk reported, citing satellite images from Planet Labs. Apparently, this is due to Russia's nuclear blackmail against the backdrop of its defeat in Ukraine, journalists say.
[NYPOST] Elon Musk said he can no longer pay for his Starlink satellite internet service to operate in Ukraine — less than two weeks after a Ukrainian official told Musk to "F—k off" over his controversial proposal for peace with Russia.
Musk had offered the SpaceX-owned service to Ukraine in February after the Russian invasion disrupted the country’s local internet services. SpaceX has since installed thousands of terminals to keep the Ukrainian military online.
On Oct. 3, however, Musk drew heavy criticism from Ukrainians for suggesting they should end the war by conceding Crimea to Russia, as well as doing a UN-supervised "redo" of elections that Russia staged to annex several regions of the country last month.
In response to the proposal, Ukraine’s ambassador to Germany wrote on Twitter: "F—k off is my very diplomatic reply to you @elonmusk."
Early Friday, Musk replied that he is now "just following his recommendation" in a Twitter thread about the Starlink shutdown.
Mercutio gives us a slightly more pungent take in the story:
[OTP] Elon Musk apparently has run out of patience with Ukraine. His SpaceX firm announced it no longer can afford to donate satellite internet service to Ukraine.
Musk said he was spending about $20 million monthly to help Ukraine, and noted that competitors such as Lockheed and Boeing are the beneficiaries of tens of billions of dollars from the Pentagon.
Musk’s decision doesn’t appear to be solely about money. Musk recently suggested a peace plan, which was harshly criticized by Ukraine President Zelensky and others.
Most memorably, Andrij Melnyk, the Ukrainian ambassador to Germany, replied to Musk: "F*ck off is my very diplomatic reply to you. The only outcome is that now no Ukrainian will EVER buy your f*cking Tesla crap. So good luck to you." Ukes were the beneficiaries of good communications via Starlink, which Musk donated. Do Svdanya.

Aaaaah. Get your wittle fewweings hurt? Fuck off dickhead. After the murders, torture chambers and rape rooms you get no say in how Ukraine handles its affairs. You are willing to sentence not only Ukrainians to genocide but millions of Taiwanese as well for the almighty dollar?
I'm confused - that's exactly what he's doing. He was told in no uncertain terms to fuck right off and take his bullshit with him.
Elon: "Your terms are acceptable."
It's not like this is going away. It's amazing how people are so quickly fooled by propaganda. He's just saying he's not going to be publicly abused and then provide a service to those abusers for free. Would you do the same?
What, is Ukraine too poor or something? They have tens of billions of our tax dollars, they can find the cash for a few hundred internet service plans.

This Larry Johnson:
As someone who worked first hand on the CIA’s Afghanistan propaganda campaign in 1985-86, I feel somewhat qualified to comment on the scale and scope of the current propaganda campaign intended to whip up support in the West for Ukraine and galvanize international outrage against Russia–it is titanic and it is out of control.

It's rather simple. His assist to UKR forces wasn't some philanthropic largesse to a David fighting Goliath. It was just a test, to see if he can function as a preternational [sorry I can't think of another word] mercenary C4ISR facilitator whilst maintaining he is just another rich adventurist.
Test performed to satisfaction and he helped the forces win a few. Think of it as the free sample of tofu the crazy lady brings around to make you think of going vegan. He was never going to use Starlink for any noble purposes anyway.

I like how everyone is missing Musk's point in his original comment. Which was, Russia already has the breakaway regions, they are majority Russian-speaking and identified with Russia more even before 2014, Ukraine is as corrupt as Russia, and the whole damn country isn't worth NUCLEAR WAR. The latter part took up alot of consideration.
But pointing out Ukraine isn't worth a nuclear WW3 wasn't very popular among some people. And he's right about that. It's not like this is Kosovo, Ukraine is right on Russia's doorstep. With Finland joining NATO, well, Russia isn't the US when it comes to borders.

It’s my understanding that the Russians had no compunction “turning off” the purely civilian Starlink satellites over Ukraine - but as Pentagon funded units they would be more reticent to do so.
And of course as a naturalized citizen Musk isn’t eligible for the presidency or vice presidency

Former CIA Analyst and Counter-Terrorism Special Forces Trainer Larry Johnson yesterday:
NATO is playing a dangerous game that poses a risk of escalating into a nuclear war with Russia. Sorry to ruin your Friday night. NATO is kicking off its annual nuclear weapons exercise today–i.e. STEADFAST NOON.
Although this exercise has not been ginned up in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, it comes at a delicate time and will have Russia raising its nuclear alert level. While it is true that NATO conducts this exercise every year at this time, it is foolish to pretend that the war in Ukraine is irrelevant.
Why? Because NATO is exercising deploying nuclear weapons, arming planes with those weapons and simulating an attack on Russia. Do you think the Russians do not give a shit?
I want you to understand the history behind this exercise. Here is the description from the 2020 version of Steadfast Noon, which the Netherlands hosted:
“Today’s exercise shows that allies are determined to ensure that NATO’s nuclear deterrent remains safe, secure, and effective,” said NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg while visiting Volkel Air Base in the Netherlands for the exercise on Oct. 16. “The purpose of NATO’s nuclear deterrent is not to provoke a conflict but to preserve peace, deter aggression, and prevent coercion.”
This year, the training flights took place over parts of western Europe and the North Sea.
The United States deploys an estimated 20 B61 tactical bombs each at Büchel and Volkel air bases, according to the Federation of American Scientists. About 100 U.S. tactical bombs are believed to be deployed at bases in Belgium, Italy, and Turkey.
The seemingly innocuous phrase, “training flights”, is a euphemism for loading with planes with mock up nuclear weapons and sending them on a flight pattern that simulates attacking Russia. Nothing provocative there, right?
Kindly note that several entries in this article were removed because they included discussions of the grand strategic level.

Flights are carried out at extremely low altitude with enveloping the terrain.
"We provide assistance to our troops in any weather. We work often. Work begins in the morning, and at night you have to complete tasks," said the deputy commander of the Mi-35 attack helicopter squadron.

It is best to hack it from the west, and for this it is necessary, again, to take control of the Pervomaisky skyscrapers. Having lost it, the enemy will quickly lose this very third line of defense. That is why there are such fierce battles now.

[REGNUM] Official Minsk should demand repentance from Kyiv for the crimes of their nationalists against the Belarusian people.
In 1943. But all eras are grist for the propaganda mill.
There is hardly another historical event that Belarusian independentists would like to forget about just like the Khatyn tragedy. Today, everyone knows that the village of Khatyn, together with the Germans, was burned by Galician and Ukrainian nationalists from the 118th Schutzmannschaft Battalion. This fact is extremely inconvenient for BCHB supporters, who in every possible way demonstrate solidarity with the current Kyiv regime.
How is it that our brothers burned alive 149 residents of a Belarusian village? Therefore, various myths are used. Some have agreed to the fact that Khatyn was burned by the NKVD, but this nonsense is not even worth discussing.
The 118th battalion is trying in every possible way to "denationalize". Say, they recruited all sorts of rabble among the prisoners of war, they have nothing to do with Galicia or Little Russia. The fact that the rabble scored, it's true.
Only this rabble was processed in a "Svidomo" ideological key, and they were led by real local Nazis. The 118th Schutzmannschaft was commanded by Petliurist Konstantin Smovsky, who during the Civil War was a colonel in the UNR army. After the war, he fled to the United States, where he received the honorary title of "Coron General of the UNR Army." In 1960, Smovsky died quietly in America. The rest of the executioners of Khatyn fled from retribution to Canada, which is also very typical.
The 118th Battalion used Galician nationalist symbols. There is a photo of the funeral of three killed policemen in 1943 in the Pleshchenitsy area (17 km from Khatyn). There is a trident on the coffin.
Sometimes, in the "familiar" publications, the "myth of Russian propaganda about Khatyn" is debunked as follows: no Bandera people burned the village, the Melnikovites burned it!
Not the OUN (b), but the OUN (m) is a wing of nationalists competing with Bandera. And it is true. It is a mistake to say that it was the Bandera people who burned Khatyn. Indeed, the Melnikovites burned it together with the Germans.
Only this does not change anything. The Ukrainian SSR honor Andrey Melnyk as their hero along with Stepan Bandera. This has already caused protests in the world, for example, the official protest of the State of Israel due to the fact that the Verkhovna Rada decided in 2020 to celebrate the glorious anniversary of Melnik, an accomplice of the Nazis, or the protest of Poland.
In the same 2020, in addition to the Verkhovna Rada, the decision to honor Melnyk at the local level was made by the Kyiv City Council and the Lviv Regional Council.
Monuments to Melnik stand in his native village of Volya Yakubova and Ivano-Frankivsk, streets in honor of Melnik are named in Lvov, Rivne, Ivano-Frankivsk, Dubno and other cities on the territory of the former. Ukrainian SSR.
This is clear evidence that the current Kyiv regime is unfriendly to Belarus. In a good way, official Minsk should demand repentance from Kyiv for the crimes of their nationalists against the Belarusian people. However, throughout the entire period of independence, this issue has never been raised at the level of the leadership of Belarus. Perhaps, now that the new Nazis are repeating the "feats" of their predecessors in Khatyn in Novorossia, it's time to loudly declare that official Kyiv glorifies the murderers of children.
And the cherry on the cake - last year on March 22, on the day of remembrance of the victims of Khatyn, Svetlana Tikhanovskaya laid flowers ... no, not at the Khatyn memorial or other monument associated with the Great Patriotic War. Tikhanovskaya's flowers were laid on the grave of the Polish rebel Vincent Kalinouski, whose gangs dealt with ordinary Belarusians as brutally as the Nazis.
It is noteworthy that the Tikhanovskaya-supported regiment of Belarusian nationalists, who are now fighting on the side of the Kyiv regime, is named after this terrorist. Not a single mention of Khatyn was made that day by the "national leader" of Belarus.

katyn in poland, in 1940, if it was in poland then, would not be in poland today, because the borders were moved in 1945. I was unable to find maps that showed the location of katyn, scene of the massacre of polish officers by the nkvd in 1940, as admitted by yeltsin. I believe it became part of the USSR but whether it was Ukraine or White Russia, I don't know. My guess is that the wild stories about other massacres at a place with the same name were part of the nkvd efforts to bury the original massacre. Anyway, the story from archives is that only a proportion of the polish officers murdered by the nkvd were killed at katyn, though many more were gathered there and killed elsewhere, and many were gathered elsewhere.

There were a number of massacres.

It sounds like Khatyn and Katyn are two different places with two different massacres — one Ukrainian vs Belarussian, the other Soviet vs Polish.

[REGNUM] Russian paratroopers showed high combat capability during the special operation. The publicist and military blogger Alexei Zhivov spoke about this at a meeting in Moscow, a REGNUM correspondent reports .
"One of the groups of our landing was isolated for some time, the guys ran out of ammunition. They were under fire, but did not lose their morale, and during one of the sorties they managed to destroy four enemy tank crews without the use of firearms," the agency’s interlocutor said.
According to Zhivov, the paratroopers safely reached their own.
"Having discovered the enemy’s tank detachment, our guys simply waited until the tankers began to leave the vehicles of natural necessity and destroyed them with melee weapons," the publicist concluded.
Recall that earlier the Armed Forces of Ukraine made several attempts to attack in the Kherson direction.
[Yahoo] Russian conscripts have started arriving in Luhansk Oblast. The vast majority of them are men who were serving sentences in Russian prisons at the time of conscription.
Source: Serhii Haidai, Head of the Luhansk Oblast Military Administration, during a briefing at the Ukraine Media Center/Ukrinform on 13 October
Quote from Haidai: "Conscripts are being deployed in the occupied territories. These are the newly drafted [soldiers] [Haidai is referring to the most recent wave of mobilisation that Russian President Vladimir Putin announced on 21 September - ed.]. There are both civilians and citizens of the Russian Federation who were serving sentences in prisons [at the time of conscription]; that is, convicts have been deployed [to fight in Ukraine]. And quite a lot of them at that."
Details: The head of the Luhansk Oblast Military Administration also added that the Russians have stopped allowing civilians to leave the occupied territories.

All warning us if Trump is elected, he'll start a Nuclear War.
Where are they now?
They’re trying to prosecute Trump. Subpoenaed him to come before their joke of a kangaroo hearing — while they skew their ridiculous bullshit and drag us toward nuclear war.

What is most frightening is that no one with their finger on the button truly understands nuclear weapons
The effects of even a small nuke are horrific
That bright flash you see in the movies that startle everyone?
It’s a thermal wave over 2000 degrees anyone that is exposed to the flash is dead incinerated
The blast wave creates static over pressures that no building is designed to withstand
Millions will die from starvation
Yep you guys keep posturing and we’ll all be dead

You obviously don't understand Danegeld. The Dane says pay and I go away, but never does and returns for more. It's a threat that keeps on happening as long as you give in. It doesn't end.
Nuke war. There will be no Russia afterwards. Not rational. At least the people running the place during the long Cold War understood that.

The only one threatening a nuke exchange is the coward commie thug Putin. He's also the one illegitimately carving territory from Ukraine. Commie thugs never change. Now that he's losing, he's trying to extort "peace"

I will ask again. How did all you people feel when Khrushchev tried to deploy his missiles in Cuba? Can you not understand that NATO missiles in Ukraine make Putin feel that same type of insecurity? Khrushchev finally understood that having his missiles in Cuba wasn't worth it. Scary that Biden doesn't seem to understand that about Ukraine.

It would be well for your government to consider that having your ships and ours, your aircraft and ours, in such proximity... is inherently DANGEROUS. Wars have begun that way, Mr. Ambassador.

the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has

...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances...
