Russian special military operation in Ukraine #20

Wouldn't it be more effective/safe to do a negotiation via Zoom? LOL

The American Embassy in Kiev stopped its work. The embassy building is closed and no employees are visible, eyewitnesses said.

Earlier, the US authorities appealed to its citizens to leave Ukraine. According to the diplomatic mission, the situation in Ukraine at the moment is assessed as extremely unstable. At the same time, the embassy believes that conditions may "sharply and suddenly deteriorate.

It also became known that the US consulate in Odessa stopped its work.

Here is fun thing about bridges: you can fix them

Also a fun thing about countries like Ukraine: you can trash them into non-existence


That bridge isn't just left defenceless and even in worse case scenario of it getting hit this is a massive modern superstructure not some tiny two bit Soviet prefab rail bridge (which still stay in place when hit)

You will need something way bigger than HIMARS or ATACMS to take Crimea bridge out of commission for longer than couple of months



This isn't about bridge, it's about the fact that Russia will be doing Odessa before year is out and warm-up has already started

Zelensky explained the dismissal of the heads of the SBU and the State Prosecutor's Office with the connections of the security forces with Russia, 17.07.2022.

In Ukraine, 651 cases of treason and collaboration activities of employees of the SBU and the Prosecutor General’s Office are being investigated, and suspicion has already been filed in 198 cases, Zelensky said. He noted that this raises "very serious questions"

The decision to dismiss the head of the SBU Ivan Bakanov and Prosecutor General Irina Venediktova was made in connection with “very serious questions” to them due to the connection of employees of departments with Russia. This was stated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Telegram.

According to him, by this day, 651 criminal proceedings have been registered under articles on high treason and collaboration activities of employees of the prosecutor's office, pre-trial investigation departments and other law enforcement agencies. In 198 cases, the defendants have already been charged with suspicion. The President of Ukraine noted that more than 60 employees of the prosecutor's office and the SBU continued to work in the territories occupied by Russia.

“Such an array of crimes against the foundations of the national security of the state and ties that have been recorded between employees of the law enforcement agencies of Ukraine and the special services of Russia raise very serious questions for the relevant leaders. Each of these questions will receive a proper answer,” Zelensky said.

British mercenary John Harding, member of Azov division addressed Boris Johnson from Donetsk prison to save his life. Harding can face the death penalty same as other two British mercenaries from the same cell who already got the verdict. Harding also addressed his daughter Katherine with his last word and blast with tears. My new documentary “Nazi punishers” will be released soon with more on that!!!

All I know is following words from my childhood , as these terms were used by family members : pirashki , garsho , veshilka !  I think , we should not be too sensitive about terminology here . Americans take military " action ! " , " action , " is a term used mostly in Hollywood ! So they are influenced  mostly by the film industry ! Russia is using the term " operation , " this word is mostly used by surgeons ! So Russians are influenced mostly by the medical profession ?

Not every war is a special military operation , and not every special operation is a war , but some wars are special military operations , and all wars and operations are a type of military action . But as a surgeon friend used to say jokingly " ...The operation was a success , but the patient died ! ...." and that is what has to be avoided . The aim of this operation was stated as : " denazification  and dimiliterazation , " so in essence it is a war against armed Nazis ! And not a war against Ukraine nation . But of course the Nazis would like to engage  nation against nation , in a war that will keep them in power and the population a hostage to war !

Therefore if they attack infrastructure in Russia , the proper retaliation is to take out the Nazis , and not retaliate in kind . The Ukrainian farmers should farm , the workers should work , and Nazis should hang on jellyinsky washing line , for all to see . How many Nazis have been hung so far ? Also , I read that the Himars is inertial navigation and GPS guided . I think at least , GPS jammers should be placed all along the Bridge . Plus some AD . How much does Piano wire cost per foot ?
