⚡️🇷🇺 Russian artillerymen have destroyed an ammunition depot of the 🇺🇦 Ukrainian Armed Forces in Avdeevka direction.

The coordinates of the discovered point were given to servicemen of the 87th Independent Rifle Regiment, who hit the target with a precise strike. As a result, the warehouse detonated.
The west are busy sending weapons that are not being used, instead getting blown up in storage.

Imagine a cheap FAB 500 bomb worth less than $5000 blowing up a $100-$500 million dollars worth of ammunitions.
Ukraine will never stop crying because of lack of ammunitions, because Russia has tons of this in storage including a much bigger brother of the fab 500.

When a wise man said 'pick on whom you can fight' Ukraine forgot to put this logic into reasoning.
If Russia can fully utilize these Soviet era ammunitions in Ukraine, including those aging ones in transnistria, the west will surely run out of ammunitions.

lol I commend the good work by the strike but are we really sure there are radiation signatures all over there? Why do I think this radiation thingy is probably false? I mean I do not expect UK to be so mad to the point of giving DU weapons out like that to attack Russians with.

Stoltenberg can keep spewing trash to prove to his paymasters that he's doing a good job promoting NATOs and Murica's interests, but if even if NATO accepts Ukraine today or anytime in the future, I fail too see how that will stop Russians from the continuous poking and blowing up of AFU equipments in Ukrainian territory.

🇸🇾 "Syria’s return to the Arab League once again proves that when the shadow of the US shrinks, the light of peace spreads.

The 🇺🇸 US and a handful of countries call their way of playing the game 'the rules' and regime change in other countries 'spring', and condemn every action that does not serve their selfish hegemonic interests.

This kind of twisted 'political correctness' will not get them anywhere anymore."

⚡Some countries see "Western double standards" regarding war in 🇺🇦 Ukraine, German chancellor says.

🇩🇪 Germany’s Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Monday some countries see what they consider “Western double standards” in regard to the war in Ukraine.

Speaking at the Global Vision Summit in Berlin, Scholz said that leaders from countries — such as 🇮🇳 India, 🇿🇦 South Africa, and 🇻🇳 Vietnam — abstained from calling on 🇷🇺 Russia to end its invasion of Ukraine at the United Nations General Assembly in February because they are “struggling with the unequal application” of the West’s “principles.”

“What they expect is representation on equal terms and an end to Western double standards,” he said. These claims must be addressed if the West wants to "encourage" countries in Asia, Africa, and the Americas to “join us in building and defending a stable global order,” he added.
Scholz told the summit that the G7 group will take steps toward creating “secure and resilient economies based on partnerships with the Global South” at the G7 conference in 🇯🇵 Japan later this week.

“I will also remain personally committed to working towards a more inclusive, more equitable global order,” Scholz said, “particularly when it comes to [Europe’s] neighboring continent, Africa."

⚡NATO’s “most urgent task” is to ensure that 🇺🇦 Ukraine wins against Russia’s war, the military alliance’s Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg told the Copenhagen Democracy Summit on Monday.

“The most urgent task now is to ensure that Ukraine prevails — that 🇷🇺 (Russian) President Putin does not win this war,” Stoltenberg said.

“Fundamentally, NATO's task is to support Ukraine, as NATO allies and NATO have done now for more than a year, but also to prevent this war from escalating beyond Ukraine,” the official said.

⚡️🇺🇦 Ukraine says 🇷🇺 Russian forces are no longer capable of large-scale offensive actions.

Defense Intelligence spokesperson Andriy Yusov told Ukrainian television Monday that Russia "is on the defensive" when it comes to discussing "the entire front line" and they are without the resources "to repeat large-scale offensive actions."

"They have been preparing for defense all this time, and this is a serious factor that the Ukrainian command certainly takes into account when preparing for the de-occupation of Ukrainian territories," the official added.

⚡️🇵🇱 Poland has received the first batch of High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, known as HIMARS, to deploy near the 🇷🇺 Russian border, Poland's Deputy Prime Minister and Defense Minister Mariusz Błaszczak announced Monday.

“Today we are accepting HIMARS to the Polish Army. [An] equipment that has proven itself in combat in the hands of the 🇺🇦 Ukrainians, stopping the Russian invasion," Błaszczak said.

"This weapon will go to the northeastern part of our country, to the 16th Mechanized Division. Its task will be to deter the aggressor, strengthen the Polish Army on the eastern flank of 🇵🇱 Poland and the eastern flank of the North Atlantic Alliance," Błaszczak added.

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov has told journalists that 🇷🇺 Moscow views the UK’s announcement of a new military aid package for Ukraine “extremely negatively.”

🇬🇧 “Great Britain qualifies to be able to take the first place among those countries that continue to pump Ukraine with weapons," Peskov said.

"This cannot have any significant impact on the course of the special military operation, but it will lead to further destruction and retaliatory actions. For 🇺🇦 Ukraine, this makes the situation more difficult."
