Jolly good! 🇬🇧

Ukraine will receive twice as many Challenger 2 tanks from the UK than London originally promised.

According to Prystaiko, the UK promised Ukraine 14 Challenger 2 tanks, but following the results of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's visit to Britain in February, it was agreed that this number would double.

President Zelenskyy obviously made a good impression during his visit to the UK.

These advanced tanks will be put to good use as Russia has inferior tanks and doesn’t know how to use them properly anyway.

Putin's army can't figure out how to use tanks, and the battlefield in Ukraine is littered with burnt wrecks

Russia's tanks were once seen as fearsome, formidable threats, but the war in Ukraine shows it doesn't know how to use them.

The Russian tank force has taken a beating. US officials have said on more than one occasion that Russia has likely lost as many as half its main battle tanks while fighting in Ukraine, if not more.

[ ... ]

Russia's staggering tank losses — which include the T-72, T-64, T-80, and T-90 tanks — can be attributed to its failure to provide adequate fire support in combat, military experts told Insider. The Russian tank force has also shown extremely little adaptability and common sense.

Some parts of Ukraine are cluttered with destroyed Russian tanks.

While much media attention lately has been devoted to fighting in the area around Bakhmut, Ukraine has been winning a major tank battle at Vuhledar.

This is footage from Vuhledar which features a Russian describing his unit’s rout in less than polite terms.

The drone-missile is a new development of the Ukrainian arms industry. "Peklo" can fly at a speed of 700 kilometers per hour, and the maximum flight distance is more than 700 km...

P.S. In order to successfully defend itself, it is important for Ukraine to develop its own military industry in order to reduce its dependence on the politically weak and deeply corrupt West...Long-range weapons are very useful for striking deep into Russian territory...

Ukrainian fighter jet carries 4x R-73 AAMs. Despite the numerical superiority, the Russian aviation has failed miserably, losing the battle for air supremacy in Ukraine already at the first stage of the war, when Ukraine did not yet have modern air defense systems. Ukraine's old Soviet-era Mig-29s and Su-27s are quite successful against the formidable modern Russian air force. Russian aviation pilots are only able to successfully wage war against defenseless civilian targets...

Very Good Morning! Several Large Explosions and Fires are raging at the Port in the Crimean City of Feodosia on the Coast of the Black Sea, following Ukrainian Strikes against what is reported to be Russian and Iran Naval Vessels carrying Munitions; the Ukrainian Air Force is claiming to have Sunk the “Novocherkassk” (BDK-46), a Ropucha-Class Amphibious Landing Ship during the Attack.

P.S. While Trump and other idle talkers cool their mouths by engaging in lies and political demagoguery, Ukraine is effectively destroying - the military resources of the criminal regimes of Russia and Iran....The only way to achieve peace is to completely destroy the Russian army, navy and industrial resources throughout the territory of Russia....

The Defense Forces of Ukraine hit the Russian railway ferry Conro Trader in the port of Kavkaz — the result of Ukrainian made "Neptune" missile attack, August 22, 2024.

P.S. The main positive news: both the latest attacks on Russian military airfields and the destruction of the ferry was carried out by Ukrainian-made weapons...

The defeat of the Russians in Syria is a more important event than many might think, we all remember how arrogant the war criminal sitting in the Kremlin was: In late 2017, Putin stated at the Khmeimim airbase, "The task of fighting armed gangs here in Syria has been completed. It has been completed brilliantly!"...

P.S. In 2024, events in Syria show that an armed opposition can successfully overthrow a dictatorial regime...! in fact, it is also possible for an armed opposition to topple the Kremlin's war criminal regime from within...and it doesn't matter how long such a regime has been in power...!!!

All NATIONS oppressed by the Russian imperialists WILL RECOVER FREEDOM and the Russian Empire will be destroyed and dismantled to its foundations...!!!

Syrians celebrate the downfall of pro-Kremlin dictator Bashar al-Assad...in 2024...

P.S. Ukraine needs to develop its own military industry, long range weapons and nukes...because West failed to enforce international law in 2014!!!
