Folk i Sudzha virker generelt lite imponerte over Putin.

LOVE it! Dette er ekte Russere!

Rublene renner ut i raskt tempo,

I følge det ukrainske luftforsvaret brukte russerne blant annet 109 Shahed-droner, 77 H-101 kryssermissiler, 3 H-22 kryssermissiler og 28 ubåtutskytede Kalibr kryssermissiler. I tillegg ble seks Iskander-M ballistiske missiler, tre Kinzhal og ti H-59/H-69 missiler brukt.

Missiler var spesielt dyre for Russland. For eksempel koster H-101 13 millioner dollar per missil, Kalibr 6,5 millioner og Iskander-M tre millioner.Produksjonsprisen på ett H-47M2 Kinzhal-missil er omtrent 10 millioner dollar, og en million Kh-22-missiler. Inkludert alle våpnene som ble brukt, var prislappen for angrepet ifølge Ukrainska Pravda 1,26 milliarder dollar, eller rundt 1,13 milliarder euro.

Ifølge det russiske forsvarsdepartementet var målet for angrepet spesielt Ukrainas energisystem. Ukraina på sin side anklaget Russland for å ødelegge også sivile mål. Minst fire mennesker døde i angrepene.

1,13 milliarder euro.

13 225 276 253 norske kroner, eller Tretten milliarder to hundre og tjuefem millioner to hundre og syttiseks tusen to hundre og femtitre.

Med oljefondets verdi i dag så kan Norge i teorien gjennomføre 1380 slike angrep. Dette er sinnssykt mye penger i et angrep mot et uskyldig land.

Serbia kommer heldigvis aldri til å få EU-medlemskap. Folket der er på Russland sin side (glem politikerne).

Tenk på hva de pengene i andre former kunne utrettet for et russisk folk som jevnt over har det ganske kjipt målt opp mot vestlig standard...

Jeg har personlig vanskelig for å forstå at ikke stalinist- og maoist (med fler)- symbolikk for lengst er forbudt på linje med fascistisk symbolikk.

Ukraina har hatt en vellykket test med et egenprodusert langtrekkende ballistisk missil.

Anticipating War Through 2025, Ukraine Is Standing Up New Mechanized Brigades

These brigades will need thousands of troops and thousands of vehicles.

The Ukrainian army is standing up new mechanized brigades. It’s a sign Ukraine’s leaders don’t expect Russia’s wider war on Ukraine to end anytime soon. It could be months before the first of the new 2,000-person brigades has filled all its billets—and months longer before the brigades are ready for combat.

Militaryland, which closely tracks Ukrainian military force structure, obtained photos purporting to depict trainees belonging to the new 160th Mechanized Brigade. According to Militaryland, the new mechanized brigades—all of them with designations in the 160s—will train in foreign countries and draw many of their recruits from Ukrainians living in those same countries.

The 160th Mechanized Brigade is reportedly training in Poland.

The creation of new brigades is contingent on two things: the successful mobilization of perhaps 10,000 or more new recruits and continuing foreign support for Ukraine’s war effort. The mobilization is the source of the new brigades’ manpower; foreign allies will probably provide the bulk of their heavy weaponry.

The formation of the 160s-series brigades comes three months after the previous army expansion wrapped up. Starting last fall, the Ukrainian army formed 10 new brigades: four mechanized brigades, five infantry brigades and a jaeger brigade.

The infantry brigades are the lightest—they mostly ride in trucks. The jaeger brigade is a middleweight force with a mix of trucks and light armored vehicles. The mechanized brigades are the heaviest: they ride in tracked and wheeled armored vehicles and usually travel with a company of at least a dozen tanks.

It’s unclear how many 160-series brigades the army is currently forming and what kinds of brigades they’ll be. If the previous round of army expansion is any indication, there could be 10.

On paper, 10 brigades need 20,000 troops. Ukraine’s controversial mobilization law, which entered into force in May, aims to bring another half million people into the million-person armed forces by lowering the draft age from 27 to 25, adding penalties for draft evasion and offering more incentives to volunteers.

The various ground forces—the army, marine corps, territorials, national guard and special units of the border service—oversee around 100 combat brigades and account for the majority of military personnel. The ground forces have also suffered the majority of Ukraine’s combat losses, including potentially 60,000 fatalities through the spring, if The Washington Post’s reporting is accurate.

Ukraine must mobilize enough troops to make good losses across the armed forces while also adding troops for the new brigades and any support units they require. That’s easier said than done in a country of just 38 million that’s already supporting a million-person military.

It’s not for no reason the Ukrainian defense ministry reportedly plans to draw recruits from the large pool of Ukrainians living abroad. Around 768,000 Ukrainian men between the ages of 18 and 64 had been granted temporary protection in European Union countries as of late last year, according to EU figures obtained by the Associated Press.

Sourcing armored vehicles might be equally difficult—and it’s not clear Ukraine could do it without enduring foreign support. A mechanized brigade needs several hundred vehicles including tanks, fighting vehicles, howitzers, rocket launchers, air-defense systems, engineering vehicles and trucks.

Ten brigades would need thousands of vehicles. To put that into perspective, in the first 29 months of Russia’s wider war on Ukraine, Ukraine’s allies have pledged around 12,000 vehicles to the war effort. Not all of those vehicles are available for new units: they’re replacing the approximately 6,400 vehicles Ukraine has lost in those 29 months.

If the formation of the 150-series brigades is any indication, it could be six months or longer before the 160-series brigades are ready for action. In other words, these are 2025 brigades—the units that might fight in the fourth year of the wider war.

Jeg tror det sitter langt inne for Lavrov å lire av seg alt pisset de siste 2,5 årene. Jeg tror han er smartere enn som så, men at han ikke har så mange valg. Alternativet er å falle ut av et vindu fra 5te etasje.

Jeg lurer veldig på hva som blir skjebnen til mange av diplomatene som fortsatt støtter Putin.

Ukraine will receive by year-end the first $50 billion taken from Russian assets immobilized abroad. These funds can be directed both to war damage compensation and defenses.

This was stated by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, who spoke at a panel discussion within the Ukraine 2024.

Ukraine to present 'victory plan' to US - Zelensky

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said his troops' incursion into Russia's Kursk region is part of a "victory plan" that he will present to US President Joe Biden next month.

Speaking at a forum on Tuesday, President Zelensky said the success of the plan would depend on President Biden and on whether the US would give Ukraine "what is in this plan or not, [and] whether we will be free to use this plan, or not".

"It may sound too ambitious for some, but it is an important plan for us," he added, saying that he would also show the plan to both US presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.

A number of Ukrainian troops made an incursion into Russia's Kursk region in early August, and Russia has so far seemingly been unable to repel them.

Speaking at the same forum, Ukraine's Kyiv's top military commander, Gen Oleksandr Syrskyi, said Ukraine now controls 1,294 sq km (500 sq miles) of Russian territory and 100 settlements - although these figures have not been verified by the BBC.

Gen Syrskyi said Ukraine had no intention of holding on to the territory and that one motivation for the incursion was to distract Russia's forces away from their own offensive in eastern Ukraine. Russia is seeking to capture the town of Pokrovsk, which is an important hub and home to a key railway station.

President Zelensky also revealed that Ukraine had recently carried out the first successful test of a domestically-produced ballistic missile. He congratulated his country's defence industry, but declined to share any more details of the missile.

Although Ukraine has already used some ballistic missiles against Russia that were provided by the US, it has been working to develop the domestic production of military hardware to diminish its dependency on Western aid.

However, for now, Ukraine mostly relies on military supplies from abroad to fight Russia and repel its attacks. At the forum, President Zelensky said that Ukraine had used some newly arrived F-16 fighter jets sent by Western countries in order to intercept some of the missiles fired by Russia in recent days - but that the country would need more jets.

For the past two nights, Russia has pummelled Ukraine with a barrage of drone and missile attacks which have left several people dead and caused blackouts in various areas of the country.

Such attacks show that Moscow has no intention to stop the war, President Zelensky said: "When they want [peace talks], they don’t launch 230 air strikes."

Since the Kursk incursion, however, Russia has signalled it will not engage in any peace talks with Ukraine.

"The topic of negotiations at the moment has pretty much lost its relevance," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.

Jeg kan ikke skjønne det at russere som er såpass bereist i verden, og spesielt vest-Europa fortsatt skal tro at Russland og deres ideologi er bra. De sender jo barn til London for utdannelse. Han har vel også hatt for vane å forlate salen rett etter talen sin for å unngå spørsmål og kommentarer?
