A couple of other interesting things worth noting today...

Another video here.  Not sure about the comment though since they hit it twice:

Valdimir Putin faces army revolt as 'commanders refuse to send troops' to storm key river

Intelligence reports suggest 2,000 assault troops have been assembled in the Kherson region, along with some 300 speedboats.

John Varga  |  00:27 ET, Sun, Dec 22, 2024  |  UPDATED: 00:37 ET, Sun, Dec 22, 2024


Russian commanders are reportedly refusing to send their troops to join a planned offensive to storm the Dnipro river.

Putin's army is building up its forces on the left bank of the Dnipro river, as it prepares to force a crossing, which comes after the Russian leader was accused of crossing red lines.

Intelligence reports suggest 2,000 assault troops have been assembled in the Kherson region, along with some 300 speedboats.

However, many senior officers believe the planned assault to be a suicidal mission and are reluctant to commit their troops and equipment to the fight, according to the ATESH partisan group.  .  .

Putin promises more ‘destruction’ of Ukraine after Kazan drone attack

Russian president says Kyiv will ‘regret’ attacking city home to key factories producing weapons for the Kremlin

James Kilner  |  22 December 2024  |  8:05pm GMT


Vladimir Putin vowed to bring more “destruction” to Ukraine in retaliation for a drone attack on a central Russian home to key Kremlin weapons factories.

On Saturday, footage showed a drone striking a high-rise luxury apartment block and producing a large fireball in Kazan, which is located 500 miles east of Moscow.

Ukrainian officials have not commented on the strike but said that Kyiv’s drones had hit a factory described as the “backbone” of Russia’s military-industrial complex because it produces fuel for missiles.

The city of Kazan also houses a new Kremlin factory that produces thousands of drones under licence from Iran, which are then fired at Ukraine.  .  .

North Korea Likely Delivered KN-15 Ballistic Missile Systems to Russia

Ivan Khomenko  |  Dec 22, 2024  |  14:14


On December 21, 2024, new information emerged suggesting that North Korea (DPRK) may have delivered KN-15 Ballistic missile systems, also known as Pukguksong-2, to Russia. This was reported by Militarnyi.

The KN-15 is a medium-range ballistic missile system, and the video in question reportedly shows a train convoy in Tyumen region, Russia. The footage reveals several cargo wagons, platforms with excavators, and ten self-propelled Koksan artillery pieces.

However, the most intriguing aspect of the footage is five tracked vehicles with cylindrical structures on top, which resemble the Pukguksong-2 missile system.

The quality of the video makes it difficult to identify the exact nature of these vehicles, but the visual similarity to known images of the Pukguksong-2, which was first test-launched by North Korea in February 2017, is striking.  .  .  .

It will be suicidal since the Ukrainians (and NATO) obviously know what the Russians are planning to do there.

Massive Russian strike leaves over half a million Ukrainians without heat on Christmas: report

“Unfortunately, we will have to evacuate one of the city’s hospitals again, where more than a hundred patients are staying."

Hayden Cunningham 12/25/2024


A series of Russian missile and drone strikes have left over half a million homes without power and heat on Christmas Day, forcing the evacuation of a hospital and causing widespread damage.

The attacks targeted Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and cities using cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, and drones. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the strikes as “inhuman.” Over half a million people in the Kharkiv region were left with no healing, and blackouts occurred in the capital city of Kyiv.

The strikes wounded at least six individuals in Kharkiv and killed one person in the region of Dnipropetrovsk. According to a report by The Guardian, Dnipro Mayor Dorys Filatov said on Wednesday in a statement posted on Telegram that about 65 homes are still without heat and a number of educational institutions have also been damaged.

“Unfortunately, we will have to evacuate one of the city’s hospitals again, where more than a hundred patients are staying. They will be distributed to other medical institutions in Dnipro,” Filatov said.

Russia’s Ministry of Defense confirmed the strikes  .  .  .

"It's complicated," played out, deadly, in real life:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjUCMxZsHOQ

It appears that the bird-strike-damaged Azerbaijani airliner that crashed yesterday may have been hit while circling hoping the local fog would lift so it could land. There had been a Ukrainian drone attack in the area, and the SAM system and operators may have mistaken the airliner for a drone (Russian SAMs and operators can't discern size difference?  :shrug: ). This has to be regarded as a "Maybe", absent confirmation, but what looks like shrapnel damage in some of the wreckage shown in the video does seem to be significant.

The Russians don't care. Killing innocent people is a pastime for those monsters.

No doubt the Russian trolls over on FR are celebrating another 'victory' for Putin or else trying to blame this on Ukraine, NATO, Poland, globohomo, the Jews, or etc.

U.S. to Send $1.25 Billion in Weapons to Ukraine, Pushing to Get Aid Out Before Biden Leaves Office

AP 27 Dec 2024

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States is expected to announce that it will send $1.25 billion in military assistance to Ukraine, U.S. officials said Friday, as the Biden administration pushes to get as much aid to Kyiv as possible before leaving office on Jan. 20.

The large package of aid includes a significant amount of munitions, including for the National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile Systems and the HAWK air defense system. It also will provide Stinger missiles and 155 mm- and 105 mm artillery rounds, officials said.

The officials, who said they expect the announcement to be made on Monday, spoke on condition of anonymity to provide details not yet made public.

The new aid comes as Russia has launched a barrage of attacks against Ukraine’s power facilities in recent days, although Ukraine has said it intercepted a significant number of the missiles and drones. Russian and Ukrainian forces are also still in a bitter battle around the Russian border region of Kursk, where Moscow has sent thousands of North Korean troops to help reclaim territory taken by Ukraine.

Earlier this month, senior defense officials acknowledged that that the Defense Department may not be able to send all of the remaining $5.6 billion in Pentagon weapons and equipment stocks passed by Congress for Ukraine before President-elect Donald Trump is sworn in.

Trump has talked about getting some type of negotiated settlement between Ukraine and Russia, and spoken about his relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Many U.S. and European leaders are concerned that it might result in a poor deal for Ukraine and they worry that he won’t provide Ukraine with all the weapons funding approved by Congress.

The aid in the new package is in presidential drawdown authority, which allows the Pentagon to take weapons off the shelves and send them quickly to Ukraine. This latest assistance would reduce the remaining amount to about $4.35 billion.

Officials have said they hope that an influx of aid will help strengthen Ukraine’s hand, should Zelenskyy decide it’s time to negotiate.

Relax, @Cyber Liberty .  Announcing that it will send $1.25 billion in military assistance to Ukraine is not the same as actually sending $1.25 billion in military assistance to Ukraine.  It was only a few weeks ago that the White House announced for the third time that they were sending weapons to Ukraine that had been appropriated eight months ago.  And those weapons still have not arrived.

The $1.25 billion here will go directly to the Dept. of Defense as a paydown of the $20 billion it just handed to Lockheed, Raytheon, and General Dynamics.  Expect Austin to transfer back to Raytheon or one of the other two, with a seven-figure bonus waiting for him.

And Ukraine comes out on the short end of the stick, with billions promised in their name, but very little delivered.  They'll continue fighting this war by fundraising on the web to purchase FPV drones from new upstart companies with no big money Defense Department ties.

Well that military assistance amounts to older weapons and ordnance from the stockpiles like the Hawk AA system, which is 1960s vintage.  The money goes back into the U.S. defense industry to order and manufacture newer stuff.  The myth that the U.S. is airlifting billions and billions in cash on pallets to Kyiv (like Obama and Biden did with the Iranians), is just that, a myth.  All that aid money goes right back into U.S. companies, while Ukraine gets the weapons and ammo.
