Did you notice the similar pattern ? 1) Hungary tried to accuse Ukraine’s in weapons smuggling but ended up robbing the bank (guess who gave them the info) vsquare.org/hungary-conduc… 2) India detained Ukrainian citizens, accused being drone experts who supply drones to Myanmar.

You cannot negotiate with this.

In just 5 days, Ukraine has eliminated more than 7,000 Russian soldiers. These are massive losses — the kind no army can sustain without consequences. This is what real resistance looks like. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

Every day near Pokrovsk, Ukrainian artillerymen lift the equivalent of a small car in shells — by hand, round after round, while Russia keeps attacking. Ukraine's 7th Air Assault Corps decided to do something about it. The unit — first in Ukraine's Defense Forces — put exoskeletons on its gunners from the 147th Artillery Brigade and sent them to their positions. The 2 kg aluminum devices cut physical strain by up to 30%, run on AI movement analysis, and fold into a compact case when not in use. Early results: soldiers tire less, load faster, and hold their combat edge longer. 🔗 euromaidanpress.com/2026/03/22/gun…

Russia lost real-time battlefield coordination after its forces were cut off from Starlink in February — and Ukraine pushed forward. Russian commanders stopped seeing live drone video and stopped communicating securely with troops across the front, WSJ. 1/

@Volya4UA nytimes.com/2026/03/22/opi… There is a lot of wisdom in this...

Important read. Truth matters in war. The American people deserve no less. Note the acknowledgment here from the Ed Board that there was a case to be made for this war. But that seems an impossibility for a president who only deals in falsehoods. nytimes.com/2026/03/21/opi…

Trump declares almost 50% of Americans to be public enemy number one – right after Iran. This is no longer politics; this is open civil war from the mouth of a president. Anyone who brands half of their own people – millions of ordinary Americans who simply vote differently – as the "greatest enemy" hasn't understood America; Trump hates it. This rhetoric isn't "tough," it's treacherous. It destroys precisely what makes America strong: the idea that Americans, despite all their differences, are one nation. Trump has just proven that he doesn't want to be president of all Americans – but merely the leader of a faction that considers the rest the enemy. Insane. And extremely dangerous.

Footage from Russian side, just killing random Ukrainian civilians. They call it "human safari' and it goes 24 hours/day. Russians want to make this a reality for all Ukraine, just mass murder.

Russia's offensive that Ukraine's commanders have been bracing for has likely started, ISW says. On 19 March, Russia sent over 500 troops at Ukraine's Lyman positions in seven simultaneous assault prongs — motorcycles, buggies, armored vehicles — and lost 405 of them. ISW calls that casualty rate unsustainable. Russia is doing it anyway, apparently cutting basic training from one month to one week to keep replacements coming. The target is Ukraine's Fortress Belt: a 50-kilometer chain of fortified cities from Sloviansk to Kostiantynivka that has anchored Ukraine's defense in Donetsk since 2014. Russia is pushing from the north through Lyman and simultaneously setting up a southern approach through Kramatorsk and Kostiantynivka. ISW's bottom line: the Fortress Belt will likely hold in 2026. But holding it will be costly — for both sides. 🔗 euromaidanpress.com/2026/03/22/isw…

@BohuslavskaKate « For the first time… » Think about that.

For the first time since the start of the full-scale war, NATO’s military command has visited Ukraine.The delegation was led by Admiral Pierre Vandier. Key topics discussed: – Involving the Ukrainian Armed Forces in future NATO exercises as the opposing force (Red Team); – The future of JATEC (NATO-Ukraine Joint Analysis, Training and Education Centre), including completion of Ukrainian command systems deployment, expansion of analytical capabilities, and scaling up training programs.

⚡️ RUSSIA'S WAR AGAINST UKRAINE — MAR 22, 2026 ■ 7-day casualties reach the highest level of 2026 so far, despite a daily drop ■ Drone losses above average; land-based losses include three air defence systems ■ Overnight 🇷🇺 attacks below average, all drones; good interception rate ■ Seven 🇺🇦 strikes reported; 🇷🇺 strikes below average; 30-day strike ratio remains below 18× 📈 See dashboard for full data: lookerstudio.google.com/s/hzU7CJGLMes

In fact, this strike occurred on a tank farm south of the refinery that looks a lot like a depot working under contract to Defense to store jet fuel in floating roof tanks (kerosene requires that).

Great work here out of Bletchley again. Its a deep dive into what I mentioned yesterday on @Volya4UA . I will add one thing to his observations. The 🇷🇺 content providers will quit in droves as their channel disappears. News will soon be provided by more 🇺🇦 perspectives by VPN

BREAKING. The country President Trump called “very late as usual” just parked a nuclear submarine within Tomahawk range of Iran. HMS Anson, an Astute-class nuclear-powered attack submarine, is now positioned in the northern Arabian Sea with cruise missiles capable of reaching targets deep inside Iranian territory. Britain did not announce this with a press conference. The Daily Mail published the positioning. The submarine speaks for itself. HMS Anson left Perth earlier this month and traveled 5,500 miles to the Arabian Sea. It carries Tomahawk Block IV cruise missiles and Spearfish heavyweight torpedoes. Its Rolls-Royce reactor will not need refuelling for 25 years. Its pump-jet propulsor makes it one of the quietest submarines in any navy. It does not need to surface to strike. It does not need permission from Washington. Starmer authorises launches through Permanent Joint Headquarters at Northwood. This is a British weapon under British command. The sequence matters. On the first day of the war, Iran fired two intermediate-range ballistic missiles at Diego Garcia, a British territory in the Indian Ocean. Neither hit. Trump publicly criticised the UK as “very late” and “disappointing” in its response. Starmer initially hesitated on US requests to use British bases for strike operations. Then Britain authorised the use of UK bases, including Diego Garcia, for operations to prevent Iran from attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran responded by warning that British lives are now at risk. Britain responded by sending a submarine that can put a Tomahawk through a window in Tehran from underwater without surfacing. The escalation ladder from “very late” to nuclear attack submarine took less than three weeks. Starmer’s calculation is not ideological. It is economic. The UK imports significant quantities of LNG and oil through Gulf supply routes. The Strait of Hormuz carries approximately 20 percent of global seaborne oil trade. British energy prices are already surging from the Hormuz closure. British pharmaceutical supply chains depend on Indian manufacturers who depend on Gulf crude. The same supply-chain vulnerability that connects Modi’s Nowruz phone call to Ohio pharmacies connects Starmer’s submarine deployment to British gas bills. The submarine is not defending democracy. It is defending heating costs. The Astute-class is the most capable attack submarine Britain has ever built. Seven are planned. Five have been commissioned. HMS Anson, the fifth, entered service in 2022. At 97 metres and 7,800 tonnes submerged, it carries a crew of 98 in a hull designed to operate at depths exceeding 300 metres. It is smaller than the American Virginia-class but rated quieter by multiple independent assessments. It carries fewer missiles but needs fewer sailors. In a strait where stealth matters more than volume, the boat that cannot be heard is more dangerous than the fleet that can be seen. The UK is now the third nation with strike capability deployed in the war theatre, after the United States and Israel. France has the Charles de Gaulle carrier group for air operations. Greece has a Patriot battery defending Saudi refineries. Twenty-three nations signed a statement. But only Britain has put a nuclear-powered platform carrying land-attack cruise missiles underwater in the Arabian Sea with the authority to fire them on the Prime Minister’s order. Trump said late. Starmer sent a submarine. The missile it carries can reach Tehran. The reactor that powers it will not need fuel until 2047. And the man who authorises the launch is the same man Iran threatened by name when it said British lives are at risk. The threat was noted. The submarine arrived.

Absolutely indifferent to life Russian soldier, in another meaningless assault thousands kilometers from his home. He chose his fate himself 🫠

When the war in Ukraine eventually ends, the smartest investment any European army could make will be hiring Madyar and his team to advise them on organizing and scaling up unmanned systems. It will be worth every penny

Ukraine needs investors to fund the expansion of production of its world leading MilTech Cheaper and better than alternatives.
