RT @OSINTua: Seems like NK delivered to Russia not only millions of artillery rounds but also some quite specific vehicles.

I hope that SK will respond.🧐

Fighter-bomber says that a motor rifle regiment was created from the personnel of the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) to participate in the war in Ukraine.

The unit is reportedly manned by gunners, radio operators, mechanics, airfield maintenance personnel and flight personnel which served in the VKS.

He attached the footage allegedly showing the training and operations of the regiment in the combat zone in Ukraine, including FPV drone strikes.

The Command of the Ukrainian Air Assault Forces responded to the news with a statement in which it is said that Colonel Emil Ishkulov will actually be appointed to a higher position due to his experience and leadership skills.

Sources in the 80th ODShBr told UP that the Ishkulov's promotion is a "cover-up" and an attempt to quiet the noise around the story.

RT @sternenko: Це Еміль Ішкулов. Командир 80 бригади ДШВ.

Має величезний авторитет серед особового складу, підтримує технологічні зміни у бригаді, добре організував бойову роботу бригади, десантники 80-ки часто беруть полонених.

За час командування бригадою, вона стала однією з найбоєздатніших у Збройних Силах.

Але оскільки у нас є традиція підвищувати негідників та карати професійних і авторитетних командирів, головнокомандувач Сирський знімає Еміля Ішкулова з посади.
Причина – командир має свою думку та думає про максимальне збереження особового складу.

RT @Tatarigami_UA: In today's speech, Zelensky, after talking to Commander in Chief General Syrskyi, reported that Ukraine has the strength to achieve its goals. While he is correct that Ukraine has the strengths and resources to take the worsening situation under control, the situation in the Pokrovsk direction remains critical, and some areas of defense have started to collapse.

Feedback from officers and soldiers on the ground, the rapid progress of Russian forces, and the unacceptable attitude towards regular soldiers from higher command indicate that the situation is not "under control." It is not a total disaster only due to the actions of people on the ground who are trying their best to prevent advances and showing examples of individual heroism and leadership.

Of course, deliveries of F-16s, permission to strike deeper into Russia, and supplements of vehicles would have helped the situation, but resources alone can't fix the problem of continuous command mistakes, including unrealistic tasks disproportionate to available human resources, combined with demands to retake lost positions.

Unsurprisingly, for the past few months, following the events in Kharkiv, there have been circulating rumors about the administration's dissatisfaction with Syrskyi and his potential replacement. The decision to remove the 80th Brigade commander, followed by the public demand from the officers of the 80th Brigade to reinstate the commander, might accelerate this process. That being said, while Syrskyi might be responsible for many problems on the frontline, he is also executing the vision and will of the President in many cases, and it was his decision to appoint him.

My team has been working on a comprehensive update on that area, but the Russians have progressed so quickly multiple times that we had to postpone the report to include the latest updates, redo the maps, and add new details. Hopefully, tomorrow we will be able to address most of the questions regarding the situation in the Pokrovsk direction and cover the problematic situation
