Negotiations with West aren't working. Make false promises then drag u into hell. If Assad hadn't believed Russia in 2013 and given up Syria's deterrent weapons on Lavrov's advice, US wouldn't have been able to invade Syria in 2014, exploit its oil for 10 years & destroy Syria.

The S-500 is a very new system designed to shoot down ballistic and hypersonic missiles (and allegedly satellites) and would be of very limited utility to the Iranians. It has never been used in combat, barely even deployed. People just post the most random things on here

Update 1. The last 36 hours (CENTCOM AOR): F-15E lost, pilot rescued 2x HH-60W damaged A-10 down, pilot ejected (allied) Wing Loong 2 down, Shiraz Likely MQ-9 down, Shiraz Possible MQ-9 lost on CSAR mission. F-16 Squawk 7700, Iraq (safely back) 2x KC-135 Squawk 7700, Israel

No child should endure the struggles that these Palestinian children do.

Ukraine has developed and is implementing a long-term comprehensive program to blind and destroy Russian air defense systems. Ukraine uses long-range drones, cruise missiles, and its own precision-guided munitions for precision strikes against key air defense elements deep in Russia's rear. 📍Analysis of open data (more than 1,530 confirmed strikes on Russian territory). Ukraine's strikes are not chaotic, but rather logical, destroying multilayered defenses: 1. Buk (56 confirmed hits). This is the foundation of the outer defense ring (45-70 km radius). The destruction of each such system creates a gap in the radar field that is difficult to quickly close. Ukraine prefers to reduce the overall air defense coverage area rather than strike at pinpoint targets. 2. Tor (46 hits).** The main enemy of Ukrainian drones and cruise missiles. This system is specifically designed to combat such threats. Its destruction directly increases the survivability of Ukrainian strike platforms. 3. Pantsir and Tunguska/Osa (27 and 22 hits). These short-range systems protect the most important targets (for example, S-300/400 positions). They are often suppressed first, allowing for a more valuable target nearby to be attacked. Their vulnerability to drones makes them prime targets. 4⃣Strategic S-300 and S-400 (36 hits to systems, 74 to components). These are the cream of the Russian air defense system. Strikes against them are the most difficult and expensive. Ukraine demonstrates high precision, hitting not just installations but key components: command posts, fire control radars, and regimental headquarters. The destruction of one S-400 battery (costing up to $1 billion) disables an entire integrated system, which Russia cannot quickly replicate. 5⃣Radars – "blinding" the system (196 hits): This is perhaps the most strategically important part of the campaign. Strikes are being carried out against all types of radar stations. "Nebo" (58 hits). These are long-range early warning radars capable of detecting low-observable targets. Their loss reduces early warning capabilities. "Kasta"/"Garmon" (29 hits) and "Podlet" (14 hits). These are specialized stations for detecting low-flying targets (the exact trajectory of cruise missiles and drones). Each destruction of such a radar expands the safe corridor for Ukrainian attacks. ❗️Friends, this is only a small part of the material. And once again, we are publishing this data because the enemy already has it, and they are using it and relying on it. "bmpd_cast". Now it's clear why Ukrainian plywood drones so easily penetrate Russian air defenses.

MUST WATCH : DOCUMENTARY Kamikaze drones have changed the rules of warfare. Now these ‘birds’ dictate the course of combat — they control the skies, lie in ambush, and strike with deadly precision. Most people say you should hide from FPV drones, but members of the ‘Terek’ Brigade would disagree. These fighters have completed the ‘Last Line’ smoothbore firearm training course and now know how to fight by the new rules. They practice shooting down targets that simulate FPV drones at the training ground. They also learn to blast them out of the sky from the bed of a moving pickup truck. The trainees are taught by experienced instructors, including Russian practical shooting champion Anna Tolstousova. The programme’s goal is to teach soldiers how to effectively counter drones on the battlefield. As the brigade’s chaplain, Father Seraphim, put it while taking part in the training himself: ‘Today the war is not fought against humans — it is fought against robots.’ What are ‘Waiter’ drones, and why are they so dangerous? And why is the shotgun considered the ‘Last Line’ of defence against UAVs. Watch the premiere of the film by Vyacheslav Guz and Abas Ali-Zade ‘Hunting the Hunter’.

Iran banned Telegram years ago, with a result similar to Russia. The government hoped for mass adoption of its surveillance messaging apps, but got mass adoption of VPNs instead. Now 50M members of the Digital Resistance in Iran are joined by 50M+ more in Russia.
