KYIV, Ukraine — Ukraine says Saturday its forces have recaptured the northeast town of Trostianets, near the Russian border, one of the first towns to fall under Moscow’s control in its month-long invasion.

“The city of Trostianets in the Sumy region has been liberated from Russian occupation troops,” the Ukrainian defense ministry announces on social media, citing the 93rd Brigade.

“The Russian army fled Trostianets leaving behind weapons, equipment and ammunition,” the defense ministry statement says.

The Ukrainian forces also managed to capture a Russian T-80U tank, cargo truck and a huge pile of what appears to be 152mm artillery shells.

Trostianets, with a pre-war population of around 20,000 people, is located between the larger settlements of Sumy and Kharkiv in east Ukraine, which have been under intensive Russian attacks since the invasion began on February 24.

Moscow’s assault on its pro-democracy neighbor has largely stalled with no major advances and Ukrainian forces even able to counterattack in places.

The recapture of Trostianets would be among the Ukrainian army’s most significant gains since they began counterattacking in several regions.

Instead of admitting they goofed and Russia outsmarted them, they know they got played.

In other words, Russia just captured Černigov.

And Ukraine just recaptured Trostianets in the northeastern Sumy province.

You fit go before that man in the coffin. Karma na bitch o.

I only attract good karma. Putin is slowly dying and it's only a matter of time before we would gather and take this picture

stanluiz:
Story for the gods. You guys think Russia is Libya ? You think Putin is gadaffi ?

You guys are dreaming. Have US removed Bashir Assad the Syrian president ? No. And you think you can remove Putin, a kgb agent.

Rather it will Biden that will be removed from power in 2024 presidential election.

Don't give yourself a brain haemorrhage with this level of anger in you o.

Putin will be removed at some point and heaven will not fall. Even you will not die except you want to kill yourself due to the self inflicted pain it might cause you as it is causing you now

Ibime:
It's unwise of Biden to say such a thing. That can only back Putin into a corner to take much drastic action and human rights violations or even go nuclear. Putin cannot live without power. He will rather take everyone down with him.

Good luck to him.

Rilwayne001:
He should go and remove him then. Lol. You think Putin is Gadaffi ?

Soon

Baawaa:
Empty threat, Putin don't care of what US is saying

Putin actually cares very much. They see America as their major threat. Any enemy of Russia are called Nazis

Empty bluff. Your words are clear and your spin is pathetic
Why would somebody who has not been diagnosed with ADHD be having a DNA test to determine which medication would work? Is that the first thing?

At any rate that is an unproven procedure , not licensed anywhere.
Even if genetics play a role in autism that is not proven and not the only likely cause. Infection or medication in pregnancy or early infancy may play a role. No one knows.

How widespread is this procedure you are touting as the first course of action?
Simple truth is that there is no indication for DNA testing in this case .
If you read something somewhere that is out of your depth do not present yourself as an expert

Chai if nobody has ever told you before allow me to be the first. You are customized Dvnce!

Where in my comment did I remotely indicate that a DNA test for safe medication application is the first course of detection or treatment for ADHD?

You need to refund any school fees your parents ever spent for real.

The procedure of medication for any ADHD diagnosed patient obviously comes after the diagnoses for ADHD has been done. Or are you self medicating? My comment explicitly talks about medication and not ADHD diagnosis but of course some retærds are suffering from some kind of mental block which prevents them from understanding whatever they read.

Ogbeni shift and stop clogging up my space with this your obtuse mental state

aribisala0:
Reading up and not understanding what you read is more dangerous than not reading at all
YOU CLAIMED that ADHD is diagnosed by a DNA swab test and that is used to influence treatment
The implication is that there is a DNA marker for ADHD Diagnosis. THIS IS WRONG
Simple question NAME ONE country where this is a mainstream practice JUST ONE

Posting bogus pseudoscience with no evidence base which you do not grasp is not a sign of being knowledgeable
Is this recognized by the FDA or any other OECD country

This work is purely speculative and experimental with no evidence in peer reviewed journals .

You are not just willfully blind but also mischieviously willfully blind.

When did I say DNA swab is used to diagnose ADHD?

Is it that you cannot understand what you read? Below was my comment you twisted mischievously.

Read the parts in bold and stop with your rubbish

However modern medicine and its method of checking for ADHD in Patients entails an ADHD swab test (covering ADHD medications), which collects saliva from the patient. It is completely non-invasive and used to analyze a patient's DNA in order to see how the patient would respond to particular medications

.

Notice the words in red and in brackets which describe what the swab test is actually for?

Why twist my words with your lies?

Abi you dey mad ni?

aribisala0:
Anywhere anyone is talking rubbish you cannot be far.

What the hell is ADHD swab test
DNA test to analyse response to medication in the treatment of ADHD

This is not only untrue , it is pure fantasy.

Update your knowledge of medicine. You are thinking and typing rubbish as expected.

Unlike you my knowledge is very vast.

Slap yourself and call yourself an Ode

But seriously why would his wife be opposed to a simple ADHD test. It's not like he would be having any kind of surgery.

It is that DNA aspect that makes me wonder at why the wife would actually reject this ADHD test

ChoCho54:
Has your daddy taken you to do DNA test?

Yes! Knowledge is power.

But wait o. Why is this DNA talk rubbing you off the wrong way? Is your conscience bugging you about something?

please you can do better than this, The report is not from Kremlin official news room, or Moscow's approved TV, Twitter is American controlled forum

Same way the American media said Russia would invade Ukraine and Russian media said America was mad and delusional for thinking so because they had no plans of invading Ukraine.

I wonder who to believe

klassyguy:
I came here for advice on how to tackle a problem, not for a lecture on whether I am doing a good job of raising my kids. I've raised my kids the best way I feel. Not everyone is perfect. Sometimes you need inputs of other parents. Most of the time when I flog him, he behaves. His teacher has told me on several occasions he behaves after I "talk" to him, but it is not all the time one should spank a kid when he misbehaves. Training kids is not only achieved at home. They also have to learn and be corrected in school where their parents are not present, and that's where teachers come in.

As for the test, if you read my initial post, I clearly mentioned I AM OPEN TO TAKING HIM FOR AN ADHD TEST. It's my wife that's against it. I can't do that without her input and support. How would you feel if your spouse goes behind your back to do something with both your kids without your support and knowledge?

Maybe your wife is against it because she feels the ADHD test involves carrying out a DNA test first.....just saying...

Wisfem:
Can you imagine, Absolutely preposterous ridiculous farcical Nonsensical and absurd air defence fully fictional and Germany still sent 1500 anti aircraft missiles as at 25th of march, They have more weapons and can not launch counter attack on the Russian air targets, Drones helicopters cruise missiles are flying in to kyiv each day, As I talk to you pro Kremlin party (United Russia )have opened a head office in mariupol Donbas is now a no go area for Ukrainian forces, and you want me to believe Pseudo Twitter post,
That same big techs that previously called for violence against Russian forces and even asking for death of the president of Russian federation,

FERNANDEZISBACK:
Why not Russia?
So you folks wouldn't reject the offer or call white racist here?

Bunch of hypocrites..look how their race/country persons keep benefitting from the white they claim to hate..I wish she was appointed in a Russia college so Putin can at least make his puppets happy for once..
West keep giving blacks a reason to lick their feet..you can't change that..

Russia can NEVER appoint a black into any sensitive position in their country. They fear their own shadow and cannot even appoint a Westerner for fear of them being spies how much more appointing a skin colour they loathe

Dabronze:
So if I want to get op correctly with this container captured by Ukrainian soldiers Russia have lost the battle.
Without this so called karashuka-4 they can't defeat Ukraine
After all the destructions they have caused to Ukrainians land I don't think there is any hope for Ukrainian not to be conquered by Russian military.

Your IQ is bottom barrel if you actually thought my OP inferred that Russia has lost the battle. So simply posting a news article should also mean I wrote it correct?

Your brain requires a major missing component

A curious 'container' that Ukrainian troops captured today looks to actually represent a significant Russian loss and a potential intelligence goldmine. What Ukraine's forces found looks to be a containerized command post that is part of the Krasukha-4 mobile electronic warfare system. The Krasukha-4 is primarily designed to detect and jam large radars, such as those on airborne early warning and control aircraft, such as the U.S. Air Force's E-3 Sentry, and spy satellites.


Ukrainian forces reportedly found this command post container outside of the capital Kyiv. Twitter user @UAWeapons was among the first to identify it as most likely being a component of the Krasukha-4 system, which is also known by nomenclature 1RL257, based on a picture that had emerged online. A complete Krasukha-4 consists of two vehicles, both based on the 8x8 KAMAZ-6350 truck, one with the electronic warfare (EW) system and the other carrying the command post module.

There are no indications one way or another about what might have happened to the truck that had been carrying this container or to its companion equipped with the EW system. The photograph of the container shows it lying on its side with tree branches on top, but it's unclear if that reflects a deliberate attempt to hide it or just where it came to rest after some kind of attack or accident. There are other fallen branches and debris around it, as well. There is damage to the command post module, notably along a part of the bottom edge of the frame, and the access doors on the side that is visible are missing. That being said, it seems to be in relatively good shape, at least externally.


Regardless, the loss of even one-half of a Krasukha-4 system could be significant for Russian forces from an operational perspective. Though its origins trace back to the late 1990s, this remains one of the Russian military's most capable mobile EW systems, with serial production only beginning in the early 2010s. It was developed as part of a larger project to field systems to shield Russian assets on the ground and in the air from the prying eyes of various ground-based and aerial surveillance and imaging radars, along with certain radar-equipped intelligence-gathering satellites.

Russian officials have at least claimed in the past that Krasukha-4 can spot and jam various types of radars, including surveillance radars, airborne radar imaging sensors, and active radar seekers and altimeters found in missiles. It has a stated maximum range against ground-based and aerial targets of between 150 and 300 kilometers, or around 93 to 186 miles, in any direction, depending on various environmental factors, according to the manufacturer, Concern Radio-Electronic Technologies, better known by its Russian acronym KRET. It's not entirely clear if this reflects the range at which radars can be detected, engaged, or both.

There are reports that Krasukha-4's jamming system can emit powerful enough beams of RF energy to physically damage sensitive electronic systems on certain targets.


Positioning a Krasukha-4 in the general vicinity of Kyiv would make good sense to help make it harder for Ukrainian forces, and their international partners, to find and target Russian units in this area via radar, where fighting has been ongoing for weeks now. By its nature, the system has to have some degree of passive detection capability, which would allow it to be used in a more general surveillance role, watching for potential threats to pop up, such as a combat jet's radar or one associated with a surface-to-air missile system. Discussions about this system's capabilities generally do not frame it as being a counter-communications tool, with Russia's military fielding a variety of other EW systems for that purpose, but it would seem possible that it has some secondary capability in this regard.

In addition, Krasukha-4 represents a mobile, multi-purpose system that could be moved around relatively rapidly depending on the changing situation on the ground to provide valuable EW support elsewhere in the country. These systems could potentially be placed in certain areas of Ukraine and neighboring Belarus, to try to blind various kinds of foreign manned and unmanned aircraft operating from the safety of NATO or international airspace.

Though the U.S. military has stopped flying sorites directly over Ukraine, it, along with other NATO members, has continued to monitor the situation in Ukraine from the air from adjacent areas. This has included sorties involving U.S. Air Force and NATO E-3s, as well as Air Force E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) battlefield management jets, and RQ-4 Global Hawk drones, all of which carry powerful radars, among other aircraft, as you can read more about here. These are exactly the kinds of platforms Krasukha-4 was developed to defeat.




Earlier this month, a production team from CNN was able to fly on a NATO E-3 on a mission near Poland's borders with Ukraine and Belarus. "The Russians have also taken to trying to jam the NATO plane's radar, an annoying but inevitable occurrence given how visible the giant spy plane is," that outlet reported at the time, though no details were given about the source or sources of that interference.

It is worth noting that despite Russia's substantial EW capabilities, which have been employed in Ukraine, among other countries, in the past, by every indication it has curiously used systems like Krasukha-4 only sparingly in the current conflict so far. It is possible that this is due in part to concerns about the loss or capture of these systems.




At the same time, Russian forces have run the same risks by employing other relatively advanced weapon systems. Case in point, the war in Ukraine has exposed the fact that the Iskander-M short-range ballistic missile has an integrated expendable countermeasure capability that was not previously known, at least publicly, which you can read more about here. There are indications that Russia's military may now finally be stepping up its use of EW systems, too, as evidenced by the captured Krasukha-4 command post module and the reported destruction of a R-330ZH Zhitel, a truck-mounted mobile communications jamming system.



Regardless, beyond the immediate implications of the loss of part of a Krasukha-4 system, if Ukrainian forces can safely retrieve this command post module, it could provide a substantial source of intelligence to authorities in the country and their foreign partners. Intelligence agencies in the United States and other countries in the West would undoubtedly love to get their hands on this container to see what can be gleaned from it. U.S. military officials regularly cite advanced EW systems, such as those that the Russians, as well as the Chinese, continue to develop and field as especially significant threats to American forces.

Learning more about the Krasukha-4's capabilities could help, among other things, in the development of countermeasures. The software that runs the system could be as valuable as the hardware, too, and might lead to the discovery of loopholes that could be exploited for cyber warfare purposes.

A deeper analysis of the command post's individual components, right down to things like the construction of the wiring inside, could offer other insights, including about Russia's ability to actually manufacture advanced EW systems and other electronics. Any documents or other items inside this containerized command post could provide a wealth of information on various topics.


Since the fall of the Soviet Union, independent Ukraine has long proven to be a valuable source of Soviet-designed hardware for the U.S. military and the U.S. Intelligence Community to pour over as part of so-called foreign materiel exploitation (FME) programs. This has included the acquisition of higher-end systems, including fighter jets and large radars, from Ukrainian sources. The U.S. government is now reportedly in the process of sending Soviet-era air defense systems from its FME stockpiles to the Ukrainian military to help bolster its ability to keep Russian forces from gaining control of the country's skies.

Either as a direct part of that deal or through separate arrangements, it would seem possible, if not probable that the United States has already been looking to acquire various examples of more modern Russian weapons and other military equipment that have been captured in the fighting so far. This conflict is likely to produce a massive treasure trove of intelligence for the U.S. government and others, in general.

With that in mind, it's possible that the U.S. Intelligence Community, elements of which have been working very closely with their Ukrainian counterparts during the conflict so far, could be in the process of trying to acquire or otherwise gain access to this portion of the Krasukha-4 system. They may, of course, have already come across another example in the course of the conflict in Ukraine or through other, unrelated means.

All told, Ukrainian forces capturing this outwardly unassuming metal box could have serious ramifications for the Russian military and be a major boon to its adversaries in Ukraine and elsewhere around the world, including in the United States.

[/b]western and NATO drug addicts are celebrating that Russian ground military were resisted from entering kyiv but they failed to understand
The sole priority of Putin special military exercise is not to take over the most populated cities of Ukraine, what happened to the sea what is happening in the air, the entire air defence system of Ukraine have been destroyed, while NATO and US can now celebrate the superiority of T 64 as against the easy to maintain T 72 and T81, Russia is yet to use any of the newly magically produced T 14 Armata tanks which currently runs to 20 ties twenties, nearly Russian main goals has been achieved even on the face of joint economical and military powers of NATO and the US[b]

The air defence in Ukraine is still fully functional. Stop hyperventilating with your lies. They are still shooting down Russian choppers and aircraft as well as some missiles.

Russia claimed they wanted to demilitarize Ukraine and they failed to do so because Ukraine now has even more weapons than when the war began with even Russia being a part of those contributing weapons to them through the Ukrainian army capture of Russian weapons and equipment.

Ukraine just 2 days ago captured Russia's most advanced Jamming and communication tech. The US has requested to have it transfered to them which is in the process of being done now.

Try not to cry more than the Russians. Putin knows his attempt at capturing Ukraine has been a huge failure so has been slacking his top military brass left right and center while your keyboard warrior on nairaland thinks he is not have sleepless nights
