Ladies and gents, we have our first complete major encirclement in the #Donbass. Not only long awaited but very hard fought, the UA regime, desperate to show the western powers that with support, it can in fact win, used (or abused) its troops to hold the salient to the maximum.
We are talking about the Hirske - Zolote cauldron, the southern part of the larger Lysychask salient. UA forces did not retreat from the cauldron until the very last possible moments. The best combat ready units have in the last day or two, withdrawn but other units remain in
their positions. We will look at evidence of this, but first let us note that what occurred, while UA sources still do not admit the loss of #Vrubivka (the key point for this maneuver), is the seizure of the Lokutivka - Rai-Oleksandrivka - Pidlisne complex along with Myrna Dolyna

De la démocratie en Amérique.

Le cas #muskbuystwitter pose des questions politiques (plus que technologiques) importantes étant donné le rôle central de Twitter dans l'actualité et l'agenda politique, sa propriété est une question sensible.

Petit thread sur la question 👇
1/ L’evenement tient à la personnalité de Musk, excessive, et une idéologie, à la fois libertatienne et conservatrice. Son projet de liberté de parole maximale, à l’image des plateformes de l’Alt-Tech a été salué par l’Alt-Right US qui s’est toujours estimée censurée
2/ Par ailleurs, sa proximité avec Trump inquiète le camp démocrate / progressiste US, notamment pour ses prises de position sociétales (anti-woke, etc.) mais pas que... leur entente tient aussi du fait que Trump est l'un des grands sponsos du projet #Starship de #SpaceX .

An easy place to start cataloguing the cost of a war is in military hardware. We will take a sample from the hard work of @oryxspioenkop each day to begin to show some of the overheads of warfare.

#UkraineRussiaWar #TankOfTheDay Image
@oryxspioenkop #TankOfTheDay 1. The T-64 tank was famously expensive in its day, costing 143,000 Rubles in 1973 (approx $408k today). This T-64BV was destroyed on 03/16/2022.

💸 Total: $408k

#RussiaUkraineWar Image
@oryxspioenkop #TankOfTheDay 2. The T-72B is estimated to cost in the region of $2m based on historic Russian exports. Here we have one that was destroyed on 02/26/2022.

💸 Total: $2,408k

#Russia has freely admitted via it’s state owned news RIA as well as other outlets that it has been #deporting #Ukraine️ citizens since the start of the #Ukraine️war. However, this would represent a serious increase in forced #deportations. reuters.com/world/europe/m…
#Russia is using “filtration” camps to screen #Ukraine️ citizens prior to #deportation to 🇷🇺. Ukraine believes 45,000 citizens have already been deported. These camps were also used in #Chechnya to filter out unwanted people. thedailybeast.com/russians-are-r…
Here is a #Russian owned RIA article from yesterday stating that #Mariupol citizens were being evacuated by 🇷🇺 to Bezymennoye, which is nearly 2,000km away. This is in spite of severely reduced fighting in the city.

1/ MAP UPDATE ! (At last ;-)
Bonjour les gens ! (Hello US/ English followers) Voici la nouvelle carte qui clôture la semaine de cette guerre. J’ai pris une carte encore plus "réelle" à mon sens, cad qui représente la géographie ( donc avec relief) de l' #Ukraine ,
2/ mais cette fois avec des échelles pour les distances et pour l’altitude… puis j’ai mis la même carte avec la "situation militaire" (du moment). Enfin j’y ai rajouté la carte « nuit » que j’avais déjà réalisé.
vous pouvez zoomer sur les cartes il ya suffisament de resolution
3/ J’y joins aussi la carte qui m’a servi de ref et comme je l’ai déjà dit, c’est une carte « raisonnée » car l’on trouve des cartes avec des « couloirs » qui sont toutes aussi « fausses » que les cartes (russes) avec des espaces conquis complètement remplis.
