Completely choking off logistics for VSU, and Russian DRGs are already operating inside Druzhkovka in recon capacity. This is from 4th Independent Motor Rifle Brigade. This formation is one of a number operating already in and around Druzhkovka. NATO's "Maginot Line" is being disassembled block by block. Can you imagine the butthurt level in NATO? It is at 11.

Russia fights for us against banderites. Strangely enough, but it is true. 

In Theory I Should ...

 ... say Hooray, gallic pride (LOL) is back and people are protesting. Nah, it is all BS. 

French citizens expressed mass indignation at the appearance of soldiers of the Kyiv regime at the solemn procession in honor of Bastille Day. Residents of France reacted harshly to the publication of President Emmanuel Macron on the social network X (formerly Twitter, blocked in the Russian Federation), RIA Novosti reports. The French leader posted video footage of the march of Ukrainian units at the main national holiday. "It's a shame to see the French armed forces marching alongside the Banderites. Russia is the only bulwark against fascism and Western decline," wrote one of the commentators under the post of head of state. Other users noted the inadmissibility of the presence of an army sympathetic to Nazi collaborators on the Champs-Elysees. Some users advised Macron to seek medical help because of his pride in such an event. Earlier, the leader of the right-wing Patriots party, Florian Filippo, also called the participation of the Ukrainian military in the celebrations on July 14 a disgrace.

Oh, come on, France--you voted for that, consistently. Enjoy.

No sympathy from me--your destiny is to march with Nazis and then disappear as people (the process is long under way). So, it doesn't matter who and how "protest" on X--the world saw the opening ceremony of Paris Olympics. 

When I State ...

 ... that professional level of NATO's top brass is appalling, I mean it. Here is French Admiral Vandier living la vida loca in La La Land. If he believes this amateurish BS he spews, what can I say ... 

Somebody has to tell him that his "exquisite" high precision weapons are outranged and outpaced by any modern strike weapon in Russian arsenal (we omit here comparison of numbers--the difference is two orders of magnitude) and that if he still thinks that Russia wants to invade Europe--thanks, but no thanks. If he wants to invade himself--his kindergarten military concepts are not going to help--he and his country will cease to exist. As Stalin once said about Soviet writers: "I have no other writers for you". I will rephrase--I have no other top brass for you. 

In Continuation Of ...

... statistics issue. Keep in mind, just for understanding what is going on--UK produces the best AD missile Europe managed to develop, Aster-30, at a rate of ... one per month. France and Germany do not fare much better. 

PARIS, July 13 (Reuters) - Ukraine and key Western allies on Monday announced an air-defence coalition that would include jointly developing a new anti-ballistic missile system as an alternative and cheaper solution to the U.S. Patriot system. With Ukraine increasingly exposed to Russian ballistic missiles, ‌leaders gathered in Paris for a summit, where 10 countries, along with about a dozen firms from the defence sector, met to press on with ‌what they called the Integrated Anti-Ballistic Missile Coalition.

Considering a very low professional level of European militaries and R&D sector, apart from economic woes, it is difficult to explain that wholesale damage to NATO stooge in 404 is produced by what is called combined (комбинированные) strikes which include in themselves (in fact--majority) such means as drones, cruise missiles (including hypersonic 3M22 Zircon and supersonic P-800 Oniks) AND what amounts to quasi-ballistic maneuvering Iskanders. 

Europe has neither technology nor capability to do anything about it and so the whole "plan" here is for Europe to drown herself in debt and then start buying crappy American systems such as Patriot PAC3. SAMP-Ts, this euro AD complex was produced in "massive" numbers such as ... ahem ... 15 (fifteen) in total. So, well ... this is called defeat and Russians, contrary to Mearsheimer's amateurish concepts of "quick victory", will continue steam-roll NATO's arsenal while choking any attempt, however delusional, on narrowing the gap. Zugzwang. 

Statistics of Failure.

Giving a taste of scale for people who still cannot grasp a clear picture of the US military decline. 

Even theoretical probabilities bankrupt the US, practical ones? It is a race to the bottom.
