Les attaques contre les radars et brouilleurs russes le confirment: l'offensive ukrainienne est imminente
Attacks on Russian radars and jammers confirm that the Ukrainian offensive is imminent
Kiev is preparing the ground to take it back.
Since the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine, launched on 24 February 2022, Russian electronic warfare equipment and radars have been destroyed, damaged or captured by the Kiev army 133 times, inflicting on Moscow a financial loss of more than one billion dollars (910 million euros), reveals the London-based, but mainly Ukrainian, open-source intelligence firm (Osint) Molfar.
"The Ukrainian army destroyed the largest number of Russian jammers and radars in the Kherson region (12% of the total), around Zaporizhia (9.8%), in the Kharkiv region (7.5%) and around Kiev (6.8%)," it said. Some 0.8% of Moscow's equipment was also scrapped in the Russian region of Belgorod, and 0.8% in occupied Crimea.
These losses include 11 Zoopark-1M radars - radars used to detect enemy artillery positions - as well as 10 Borisoglebsk-2 radar jammers and 9 Zhitel satellite and mobile communication jammers. All this shows that there is an intensification of Ukrainian operations against this Russian equipment.
However, Molfar notes that this trend has always preceded Ukrainian counter-offensives since the beginning of the Russian invasion: in March 2022, 18 Russian jammers and radars were destroyed, just before the Ukrainian counter-offensive in Kiev and Kharkiv; in September, the Ukrainian army eliminated 13 radars and electronic warfare systems, before liberating a large amount of territory in the south, especially around Kherson.
In March 2023, there was a clear increase in the number of destructions: 34 Russian jammers and radars were put out of action. This seems to confirm that Kiev is preparing an imminent and large-scale offensive, thus confirming the recent statements of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence. And this, despite the doubts of the United States, revealed by the recent leak of classified documents of American intelligence.

Does not look so good , if you go by these articles . Seems like a sucide squad mission . And might even become last if Russia manages to throw a decisive blow . My view is completely based on following two article . There might be more variables to the equation .
Military briefing: Ukraine’s ‘high-risk’ bid to breach Russia’s fortified frontline
Spring counter-offensive requires high level of co-ordination between Kyiv’s military divisions
Ukraine’s counter-offensive is drawing near
Its Western allies want success—but not too much
On one side will be around 35,000 Ukrainian soldiers, bolstered by western battle tanks. They will face more than 140,000 enemy troops along a 950km frontline. Russia has built three layers of defensive lines along 120km (75 miles) of the front line in Zaporizhia province in anticipation of a Ukrainian assault towards Melitopol . typically consist of a minefield, followed by lines of pyramid-shaped concrete bollards called dragons’ teeth that slow down mechanized units. Another minefield lies beyond them, with a line of trenches and dugouts 400m further back, and an anti-tank ditch 500m behind that. . layered defences are designed to lure advancing columns into “kill zones” covered by pre-sighted artillery. . Ukraine’s offensive force consists of at least a dozen brigades (some sources say up to 18), nine of which have been armed and supplied by Western allies (a brigade tends to be several thousand men). Those nine are due to have more than 200 tanks, 800 other armoured vehicles and 150 pieces of field artillery in total . majority of its vehicles have little or no armour. Then there is Ukrainians’ lack of air superiority.
@Picdelamirand-oil, @Amarante, @Bon Plan Any theories what this is about?

It's what 1 senile old f*cker thinks.
Most Brazilians support Ukraine, but think country should be neutral in war
The majority of Brazilians support Ukraine, though public opinion is divided about the Brazilian government's approach to the conflict.
brazilian.report
NATO is encouraging Ukraine to defend itself. If Russia f*cks the hell off back to its own country the war will end. What are Wagner doing in Mali, Sudan, CAR, Burkino Faso etc. is that the US encouraging war too?
Ukraine hits out at Brazil’s Lula: Come here to grasp ‘real causes’ of war
Brazilian president’s framing of the conflict is ‘not in line with the real state of affairs,’ a Ukrainian official says.

That 1 person happens to be the President of Brazil, Paddington, in case you didn't notice. Which is why I linked the US reaction here not the original statement of support by Lula. Evidently the US isn't pleased it's rotten little secret is being disclosed publicly.Not that the rest of the world cares except for higher energy prices, good stuff, fertilizers etc but somebody outside your echo chamber had to make a noise loud enough for you to hear considering the deleterious effects of decades of the Paddingtonification of Western media & it's audiences .
NATO was encouraging Ukraine even before the conflict began which unarguably was the cause of the conflict O'Neil. That's what Lula articulated, O'Hara. It's the unexpressed thoughts & feeling of billions of non Europeans & North Americans O'Leary. Which in Paddington terms means the rest of the e
World O'Leary.
They wouldn't have waged war in the first place if you hadn't precipitated the crisis, Paddington. Now, this war would end when you i.e the perfidious albions aka the UK alongside your bum chums in Eastern Europe viz the Baltic states & Poland decide to stop egging Slavya Ukraini on. It's as simple as that Paddington unless of course Russia succeeds in completely degrading Ukrainian capacities which is what seems to be happening. How long will it take? No clue. But if this goes on for another year or two, don't be surprised Paddington.
No clue. Why don't you ask them? Are you suggesting it's related to what's happening in Ukraine, Paddington? Tomorrow if cracks appear in the Good Friday Accord, you'd blame the Russkies too, wouldn't you Paddington?
Brazil's stance on Russia-Ukraine war hasn't changed much
Lula promised a U-turn from Jair Bolsonaro's diplomatic stances. That has been the case on many issues, but not on Russia.

On expected lines Paddington. After all the war is THE cash cow for those in Ukraine waging it, principally the Comedian in Chief. As well as for all those in the Western world considering most if not all the so called aid pouring in is thru the Lend Lease Model. Which is why I think Irish Joe is the most under rated Paddington in all of your history.
What a man!! Gee, I never tire of telling anyone willing to listen he's somebody whom I hugely admire.Pulled off the con job of 3 millenia, taking friends foes & everybody in between for a Royal Ride. Irish Joe!! What a man!!
Combat work of self-propelled guns 2S9 Nona-S on the strong point of Ukraine. The crew of the Russian self-propelled guns 2S9 "Nona-S" spoke about their combat work in Ukraine. The video shows the work of the Russian Airborne Forces unit at the stronghold of the Ukrainian army in the forests in the Kremenny direction. Self-propelled guns 2S9 fire 120-mm shells and mortars at a distance of up to 13 kilometers.
The work of the Russian electronic warfare UAV Orlan-10 of the Leer-3 electronic warfare complex. Footage of the launch of the Russian UAV Orlan-10 of the Leer-3 electronic warfare system in Ukraine. The RB-341V complex is designed to suppress cellular GSM communications using the Orlan-10 EW UAV at a distance of up to 120 kilometers. A special transmitter installed on the Orlan-10 UAV imitates the operation of a cellular network base station and interferes with the normal operation of subscriber terminals.
Russian drones with loudspeakers were noticed by Ukrainian soldiers, they would have opened fire on the drones, but they failed to bring down anything.
A Russian soldier spoke about the use of the Lancet kamikaze drone in Ukraine and how the Ukrainian army is trying to deal with the strikes of the Lancet drone.
A Su-34 fighter-bomber of the Russian Air Force attacked the Ukrainian bridge over the Sudost River in the Chernihiv region. Reportedly, the strike was caused due to the fact that sabotage groups of the Ukrainian army used a bridge across the Sudost River, not far from the village of Gremyach, to penetrate the territory of the Bryansk region of Russia. Presumably, the modernized planning bomb FAB-500 M62, or the X-29TD missile, was used for the strike, the height of these bombs was from 570 meters to 12 kilometers, at a flight speed of up to 1900 km / h. Bomb damage radius up to 250 meters.
