⚡Russian forces know all the coordinates of military facilities in Ukraine. This was stated by Ukrainian military expert Aleksey Getman on the YouTube channel Espresso. "They know very well [the location of military facilities], because everything is in open sources, where our military enterprises or enterprises related to military production are located. You can even find their exact coordinates, their exact names and what they produce," he said. The expert also called it a crime that the Ukrainian authorities themselves have declassified military facilities in an attempt to fight corruption. According to him, this is why Russian soldiers are constantly attacking these facilities. 3 Likes 3 Shares |

⚡The British PM announced the largest package of military assistance to Ukraine worth about $3.2 billion for 2024 The emphasis is on drones. From strategic to naval. Britain will supply Ukraine with the largest batch of drones ever supplied to it by foreign countries. They will produce it in the UK and then transfer it to Kiev. The list also includes long-range missiles and artillery shells. And there may be problems with the latter. Last summer, the parliamentary committee on defense decided that supplies of ammunition had dropped dangerously low. The government has signed a contract with BAE Systems in advance, but it will take time to restore the balance. In addition, a security cooperation agreement was signed between London and Kiev. The Kingdom became the first country to enter into such an agreement on the “guarantees” that G7 member states promised to provide to Kiev at the NATO summit in Vilnius in 2023. |
