500,000 USD is after all a lot of money...

Cursed of having Jewish Presidents.

Everywhere war, no peace with the Jews.
At least Putin balance them out.

Wrong. Jews love money. If war how to make money?

Ask the Chinese, do they like war? No, they rather continue making money.

Orekhovsky sector: heavy losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the entry into battle of the 71st Jaeger Brigade
situation as of 19.00 on September 12, 2023

South of Orekhov, the assault on the positions of the RF Armed Forces continues. After many weeks of "meat" attacks, the enemy was able to advance between Rabotino and Verbove, and is now trying to make a gap in the defense to reach Novoprokopovka.

🔻But huge losses make themselves felt. For the first time in a long time, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine brought into battle the 1st detachment of the 71st Jaeger Brigade - five assault groups with lightly armored vehicles and weapons were deployed to the Chubenkov beam.

And units of the 71st EBR, together with the 82nd Airborne Brigade, have already taken part in the assault on the strongholds of the RF Armed Forces near Verbove, where the attack was repulsed. And the 71st brigade itself suffered its first losses.

🔻Also, the formations of the 65th mechanized brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine returned to the front line and were re-equipped. And 209 people from the special forces detachment of the Special Forces of Ukraine were transferred to their subordination to storm the heights south of Rabotino.

In addition, formations of the 13th brigade of the National Guard “Charter” arrived in the rear areas in Vozdvizhevka, Upper Tersa and Dolinka due to the large number of killed and wounded in the 15th brigade of the NSU, which confirms the strengthening of the group in the south.

🔻Russian units are actively engaged in counter-battery combat, as well as point-by-point use of Lancet loitering shells. One of these drones of the 45th Airborne Brigade of the Russian Airborne Forces destroyed the Bukovel electronic warfare station near Zapasny.

Still stuck in Robotyne after 102 days since the offensive started on June 4th.

On the formation of new brigades of the AFU

Nothing speaks better about the impending total mobilization and heavy losses of the enemy, as well as plans for waging the autumn campaign, than the measures to form new brigades.

Five separate mechanized brigades are planned to be formed by the end of October. And four infantry formations, judging by the interceptions, are almost ready, and soon we will see them on the battlefield. And this does not take into account the 5th tank brigade of the 10th AK, which is expected to be commissioned by the end of the year.

📌 It’s interesting what the Ukrainian command emphasizes when creating new units. Infantry brigades, taking into account the favorite tactics of the “meat” assault, will be equipped only with light armored vehicles and will act as consumables to replace the depleted 9 and 10 AK forces.

They must overwhelm in numbers and wedge into the defense, creating favorable conditions for the introduction of mechanized groups into battle, and five new brigades will likely be taken into account in the enemy’s plan. The forced transfer of equipment from Germany takes on (https://t.me/rybar/51764) new colors in connection with this information.

In general, this suggests that conceptually the tactics of the Ukrainian formations will not change yet and, as predicted, total mobilization will have to cover the shortage of personnel to continue the creeping offensive, primarily in the Zaporizhia direction.

More Ukrainians; man and women to be sacrificed for the benefit of the corrupted, nefarious Bandera regime lead by the puppet clown Zelensky.

Biden To Be Impeached? White House Fumes At 'Extreme Politics' After U.S. Speaker's Inquiry Decision

The Republican speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives gave a go-ahead for an impeachment inquiry against President Joe Biden. "House Republicans have uncovered serious and credible allegations about President Biden's conduct. Taken together, these allegations paint a picture of a culture of corruption," said Kevin McCarthy. The business dealings of Joe Biden's son Hunter while his father was vice president are under the radar. No credible evidence has emerged so far. The White House launched a scathing attack after the decision, calling it extreme politics at worst.

Ironically, this means that russia is actually outspending the military aid given by the allies and is still unable to achieve its goals.

Russia is spending more than 100 bil (a third of its budget) solely on defense (whereas the aid received by ukraine includes financial and humanitarian aid).

What exactly are the Russian goals? Did you include aid from EU and other countries before stating the above? Where are the news sources?

which goal post you wish to know that was announced by russia state media through the entire year? 3 day to Kyiv? denazification? demilitarization? and a few more i think...

best investment according to this senator...

“To my fellow Americans let me just say - you're getting your money’s worth in Ukraine. The Russian military has been degraded by one half. It's been reduced in strength by 50% without a single loss of an American serviceman with less than 3% of our military budget. That is quite a bargain in military terms.”
