Updates: Odesa,Ukraine
It was reported the other day, or at least the Ukrainians claimed to have intercepted nearly every missile and drone that was striking Odesa. It didn’t seem possible, statistically speaking. Given what occurred the evening of the July 18-19/23 at Odesa, a massive attack, with no real air defense being deployed resulted in an extremely […]
According to this article it’s the safest option. Kind of strikes me as odd? Why couldn’t nukes be deployed to prevent a regime change? Or in anticipation of regime change? I don’t know?

NYT’s via Archive.ph Interesting the acknowledgment that Ukraine suffered heavy losses. Even though as I understand the situation, it seems the losses are worse than admitted. Still western media reporting like this rarely takes place without sugar coating the situation. In the first two weeks of Ukraine’s grueling counteroffensive, as much as 20 percent of […]
Bloomberg reports as if Sweden’s accession has already taken place. It hasn’t. There are plenty of assumptions made throughout the article.

My impression so far is Ukraine didn’t gain any ground in it’s desire to join NATO. And will continue to be used as a proxy army. https://www.armytimes.com/news/your-military/2023/07/12/nato-deepens-ukraine-ties-but-doesnt-set-clear-path-for-membership/ NATO leaders gathered Wednesday to launch a highly symbolic new forum for ties with Ukraine, after committing to provide the country with more military assistance for fighting Russia […]
