Hectic lifestyle continues, today we are on one of the larger TSHD dredgers.

Six new countries to BRIICS I find interesting, Egypt is not a small country and Saudi and UAE have oil. Argentina is probably irrelevant, Ethiopia as well, Iran was expected.

Apparently there are 22 more candidates to join BRICS who have signed up to the waiting list and another 20 or so who have expressed interest.

It is a free world one might start by saying, if countries want to join China’s and Russia’s world they can do so. It’s probably becoming quite a large platform for China and Russia to push their political gangster agenda with maybe and the West should perhaps start looking for trading partners in, for example, Africa whom they treat fairly and decently so they don’t join the gangster club?

There has been additional information that it is already worn-out RU units now manning the second line that UA has reached at Robotyne and south of Staromaiorske – we have guessed this for a long time and the anecdotes support that assumption. Erik14 has had at least two posts about it.

Since UA has now started deploying their elite units who like to conduct night fighting (Easter egg) it will again be a bit like when the US hunted the Taliban in Tora Bora.

Then MXT posts a video of when T-10 is mobilized to the front – it wasn’t entirely clear that the transport was going to Ukraine but I’ll bet on it anyway.

At the same time as Western media post article after article with convincing arguments that Ukraine stands no chance, the Russians mobilize tanks built shortly after World War II and send out trauma patients to man the defense systems to defend themselves against combined arms warfare that conducts night fighting – the dissonance couldn’t be greater.

Then it struck me that this surrounding defense they have in, for example, Tokmak is just a trap that gives Ukraine a sharp boundary to what they need to eliminate with indirect fire.

Since these are the Russians, they have surely planned a stubborn defense in Tokmak and have large stockpiles in the city as well as some units. All beautifully encircled with a ring of fortifications.

There will be infinitely much death in that trap and nice that 155mm has started to pour in now.

Then Zaluznyi (CO…) has come out and said that UA is sniffing at a larger breakthrough, considering how restrained they have been so far it probably isn’t completely pulled out of thin air, reasonably?

👍 The summer is long and the breakthrough is approaching!
