By /

During the night, Ukraine attacked Crimea and according to reports, explosions were heard in several cities and a fire broke out in a transformer station in Melitopol, leading to power outages in parts of the city. Read more at Kyiv Independent.

Russian losses in Ukraine

Today’s report from the general staff shows slightly lower losses than usual recently, with KWIA down to around 800 (the average this year is 1012 per day) except for UAVs, which are the fifth highest ever, and artillery and soft vehicles, which are about at the current average.

  • 820 KWIA
  • 2 Tanks
  • 3 AFVs
  • 38 Artillery systems
  • 4 MLRS
  • 2,459 UAVs
  • 201 Vehicles and Fuel tanks

Russian activities

The number of battles is not very high, but the number of KABs is now back to a too high level, the number of suicide drones is the fourth highest in the war. Artillery is now back to a higher level (about the average before this year) after being unusually low for a couple of weeks.

  • 125 battles
  • 70 airstrikes (including 2 drones)
  • 246 KABs
  • 10,256 suicide drones
  • 3,828 shells (including 72 from MLRS)

    Another decrease in the Russian attacks, while the total increased as the unlocalized attacks increased.

      Regarding the relationship between Ukraine and Hungary.
      Despite Peter Magyar’s victory, there is something between the countries that is causing friction. Is it just the issue with Transcarpathia? Hungary believes that Ukraine discriminates against the Hungarian-speaking population. But Ukraine did not determine the borders, it was Great Hungary and then the Soviet Union. Ukraine could only watch.
      Magyar does not want to join Ukraine to either the EU or NATO. When it comes to the EU, I suspect that Hungary sees Ukraine as a major threat regarding agricultural policy. But NATO?
      Regardless, things are getting better for Ukraine now than before. And worse for Putin.

      1. MXT

        Yes, he has said that he is against Ukraine’s membership in the EU as long as they are at war (haven’t checked if the same applies to NATO), however, he has stated that he will not stop EU’s loans to Ukraine and that is the most important thing right now and a clear improvement compared to Orbán.

        Regarding EU (and mainly NATO membership) in the near future, there are probably more obstacles than just Hungary being difficult.

         

        1. Proxima

          By the way, Ukraine can give a damn about NATO. They behave significantly more mature and competent than all of NATO combined.
          This assembly has become a henhouse run by professional naysayers led by Trump and Rutte. Two slightly odd personalities, if I may express myself diplomatically.

        2. fedtmule

          The question is how Magyar chooses to read the map now that the election is won and the supermajority is secured.
          Even though Magyar originates from Fidesz, he now has the opportunity not only to navigate in a new political landscape but also the opportunity to uniquely shape this landscape according to his own preferences.
          I am inclined to believe that he largely exaggerated his distancing and skepticism towards Ukraine in order not to alienate parts of the electorate and expose himself, allowing Orban to wedge in and grasp the political discourse before and during the election campaign.

        3. MacMelmac

          As far as I know, he is against a fast track for UA, not against UA joining.

          I think he did like Meloni did in Italy to get the votes from EU skeptics and others. Then he can, just like Meloni, throw some dirt on the EU and then agree on “compromises” so everyone is happy and he hasn’t betrayed his voters (like Trump does).

          1. fedtmule

            Interesting comparison with Meloni you make Macmelmac.
            I believe he will pursue a fairly constructive, if not entirely compliant, line when it comes to the relationship with the EU. This is because the Hungarian people are generally positive towards the EU and partly because Magyar has had the issue of repairing and developing cooperation with the union high on its agenda.

          1. Proxima

            Belgium sends F16 when they receive F35. I know one plane has arrived. Then there are six Norwegian F16s in Belgium. But these are not in a condition to be handed over to Ukraine.

    2. 205

      Now that Hungary has disappeared as an obstacle in the support for Ukraine, the spotlight falls on Spain and Belgium. These two countries have had a highly unclear role in supporting Ukraine. For Belgium, obstruction of the allocation of frozen assets to Ukraine can be mentioned. On the other hand, Spain hosts the entire Russian monarchy, or the Romanoff tsarist family, whose heirs are alternately located near Madrid and sometimes in St. Petersburg. When they are not on the Crimea to inaugurate some monument in honor of Catherine the Great.

       

      • Madrid/St Petersburg: Maria Vladimirovna was born and raised in Madrid, Spain, where she is partially based, but she and her son often visit Russia (especially St. Petersburg and Moscow) where they act as the “Head of the Russian Imperial House”.
      • Crimea and Catherine the Great: Maria Vladimirovna and her son have been active in Russia’s official historical politics since 2014, including visits to Crimea to inaugurate monuments, including those honoring Catherine the Great and reconnecting to the Russian imperial era.
      • Ecclesiastical connections: They are supported by parts of the Russian Orthodox Church and have participated in the opening of exhibitions about the Romanov dynasty in Crimea.

    It doesn’t seem like the USA and China are cooperating – that’s good.

    Now the USA has started to eye the Strait of Malacca as well.

    That’s good because a world divided between the USA-China-Russia is dystopian.

    An outburst in Asia between the USA and China is probably inevitable, and then they will eventually get tired of war and we will have a long period of peace.

    At least the lesser evil for Europe.

    Ukraine is well on its way to breaking Russia’s back, and Europe seems willing to support Ukraine, at least as long as we don’t get hit.

    We have long discussed a USA that defends the petrodollar with war, and that seems to be the case?

    By the way, China has sold off a lot of US treasury debt.

    1. Proxima

      The traffic can be directed via the Sunda Strait (between Java and Sumatra). Then it will be a problem for Trump if he gets a feeling. It is Indonesian territory. There used to be problems with pirate attacks there. But haven’t heard anything about it for many years. So Trump is messing with Malacca, so the traffic is directed via the Sunda Strait.

    2. 205

      “It’s good because a world divided between the USA-China-Russia is dystopian.

      An outburst in Asia between the USA-China is probably inevitable and then they will eventually get tired of war and we will have a long period of peace.

      At least bad for Europe.”

       

      You usually say the USA is trying to weaken Europe and does what is good for the USA. Is it the opposite? Is Europe behind the increased friction between China and the USA in order to come out stronger than these two? Is Europe doing what is good for Europe?”

    3. MacMelmac

      “Ukraine is well on its way to break the back of Russia.”

      Unfortunately, I have heard this several times, even in other places, but it has ended in disappointment.
      I really hope so, but I dare not bet on it until there are real proofs that it is so.

      The Russians do not have the sense to realize when that is the case but will keep going until it goes really wrong.

    The War in Iran

    If it is true, it seems that the USA does not dare to stop Chinese ships, or that they have not yet managed to implement the blockade.

    “A Chinese ship under US sanctions passed through the Strait of Hormuz outside Iran on Tuesday, Reuters reports. This despite President Donald Trump’s blockade.

    The ship, Rich Starry, is the largest to pass through the strait since the blockade began on Monday, according to the news agency.

    The USA imposed sanctions on Rich Starry due to dealings with Iran.”

    —

    “Experts and analysts doubt that Donald Trump’s own blockade will compel Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz, writes the New York Times. Danny Citrinowicz, an Iran expert at the Israel-based think tank Institute for National Security Studies, says that the leadership in Tehran is convinced that it would inflict more damage on the international economy than on Iran.

    Citrinowicz believes that it is unlikely that Donald Trump’s blockade of the ports will make Iran ‘wave the white flag’.

    – I can spare you the wait: Iran will not capitulate.

    Ahmet Kasim Han, professor of international relations, says that Iran’s regime has shown itself to be ‘willing to take more than a few hits’ and that it doesn’t care how it affects the country’s own citizens.” https://omni.se/expert-tvivlar-pa-strategin-kommer-inte-kapitulera/a/Rj54J2

    From yesterday

    “The USA has initiated its own blockade of the Strait of Hormuz in an attempt to increase pressure on Iran to open the important oil passage, CNBC writes. In a social media post, President Trump sends a warning to Iranian attack boats. ‘If any of these ships come near our blockade, they will be immediately destroyed,’ he writes.

    In a document seen by Bloomberg, the USA plans to block Iranian ports. Ships that violate the blockade may be seized.

    The blockade is said to cover the entire Iranian coastline, including areas east of the Strait of Hormuz. Neutral ships not heading to or from destinations in Iran will be allowed to pass through the strait, but may still be searched, according to the document.

    Trump announced plans for a separate blockade of the strait on Sunday after talks between the countries broke down.”

    💥👀 Yelets, Lipetsk region [Russia], there was an attack by strike UAVs on the industrial zone of the city, the results of the raid are currently unknown.

  11. MXT

    “Israel has accepted a Russian ship with stolen Ukrainian grain from the temporarily occupied territories. This was reported by Kateryna Yaresko, a journalist for the SeaKrime project of the Myrotvorets Center. The Russian dry cargo ship ABINSK received permission to enter the port of Haifa with a cargo of wheat in the amount of over 43.7 thousand tons. The ship loaded at the anchorage of the port of Kavkaz, where the grain was delivered from the occupied Ukrainian ports.”

          Israel is in many ways better than the surrounding states, but Israel is a country with major corruption problems, and they say the fish starts rotting from the head.

    4 weeks ago he predicted America would send troops to Iran, now Robert Pape returns to reveal what could happen next!

    Robert Pape is a Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago and one of the world’s leading authorities on military strategy and security affairs. He has advised every White House since 9/11 on military strategy and bombing campaigns and is the author of ‘Our Own Worst Enemies: America and the Age of Violent Populism’.

    He explains:
    ◼ The 4-stage escalation trap and why every prediction he made has come true
    ◼ How Iran and Russia controlling 30% of the world’s oil could crash your economy
    ◼ Why killing Iran’s leaders is making the country stronger, not weaker
    ◼ Why America can bomb Iran’s nuclear sites but still can’t stop them getting the bomb
    ◼ The only deal that could stop Iran getting nuclear weapons and why it probably won’t happen

    This is an official confirmation that they were behind the attack yesterday, so it is not a new attack.

    China is really mad at Hormus.

    What does that tell us?

    As long as they weren’t affected, they were completely satisfied 😀

    TACO or shots fired?

    1. fedtmule

      Johan! I imagine that the likelihood of some variant of TACO is probably greater than the opposite. However, if it were to lead to a confrontation, an armed one or otherwise, at Hormuz between the US fleet and Chinese interests, I believe the probability is higher that China will back off somewhat because they are probably not interested at this point in time in escalating their conflict with the US into a more or less full-scale war. This is partly due to the fact that the US is militarily strong, especially in the Middle East, and that China does not see a direct conflict as something that is good for business.

    2. N Eklund

      They want to extract oil from Iran but forget that they buy three times more oil from the GCC.

      The Houthi rebels threaten to sink ships in the Red Sea if the US stops ships that come with cargo from Iran. It will be a problem for us in Europe.

       

      If we want to secure our energy, we should at least verbally stand on the side of the US and GCC. Maybe send ships to help secure the Red Sea.

       

      Then one can note that there is a lot of talk about international law when the US does something, but when Iran closes waterways in international waters, it seems quite quiet, or have I missed something?

    “For the first time in history, Ukraine is armed well enough to defend against Russia’s strikes,” Zelenskyy said. Drones replaced artillery as the decisive battlefield factor. Next goal: domestic anti-ballistic air defense — Ukraine aims to lead Europe”

    1. 205

      Ukrainians have few other firsthand experiences with the Patriot, as well as having previously inherited the Soviet systems. Together with leading expertise in missile construction, it is not difficult to imagine a world-leading position in ballistic defense.

    Darth Putin at X

    “On this day in 2022, the Russian warship Moskva, which was told to “go fuck yourself,” went and fucked itself and sank. By a country without a navy. In a land war. I remain a master strategist.”

    It was on the 14th of April 2022 that Ukraine sank the warship Moskva.

  19. 205
    1. Trump’s blockade rhetoric hits the wrong target — resilience lies in Beijing, not Tehran.
    2. Iran is a tool: China’s interest lies in chronic instability in the Middle East.
    3. USA is emptying Tomahawk stocks and moving fleets — away from Asia.
    4. Alliance trust is falling: Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan see the US prioritize the Xi meeting.
    5. 90%+ of Iran’s oil goes to China — despite sanctions, 53-54 billion dollars/year.
    6. The shadow network is industrial: 1,500+ trips in 2025, yuan payments, false origin declarations.
    7. China supplies military technology: chips, rocket fuel components, possibly CM-302 robots.
    8. MANPADS trail: intelligence tracks possible transfers via third countries.
    9. A blockade harms Iran and China — but also allies and global energy markets.
    10. The right pressure should be directed at China’s lifeline to Iran, not at a strait punishing everyone.

    Geraschenko:

    When President Trump talks about a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz as a way to “destroy Iran’s economy,” we must remember who is behind Iran’s resilience. Above all, it is China – not only as an oil buyer, but as a strategic partner benefiting from Iran remaining a destabilizing force in the Middle East. Russia as well, but Russia is stuck in Ukraine.

    Iran is a tool. For China, Iran serves a single purpose: to keep the Middle East in a state of chronic instability, costing the US money, attention, and reputation.

    ◾️ First, the Iran conflict is currently diverting American resources from Asia. The US has sent the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group, two destroyers, two marine expeditionary units, as well as Patriot and THAAD systems to the Middle East, depleting the country’s stock of Tomahawk cruise missiles, crucial for a potential Taiwan scenario.

    ◾️ Second, the crisis is a blow to American authority and entails concessions. Every war in the Middle East erodes the trust of US Asian allies. Japan and South Korea are already experiencing delays in deliveries of ordered American weapons. Taiwan watches as Washington sacrifices its security for a summit with Beijing: Trump delayed a multi-billion dollar arms package to Taiwan to not jeopardize the meeting with President Xi.

    ◾️ Third, China is the sole winner in the oil blockade against Iran. Despite the sanctions, Iran earned 54 billion dollars in 2022 and 53 billion dollars in 2023. Where does this oil go? To China. Over 90% of Iran’s oil exports are absorbed by the Chinese market, primarily through networks of small independent oil refineries in Shandong province.

    The system is meticulously planned. Iranian tankers turn off their transponders, transfer oil ship-to-ship off the coast of Malaysia, re-label the cargo as Malaysian or Indonesian, and settle payments in yuan through small banks outside the dollar infrastructure. In 2025, these shadow vessels made over 1,500 trips from Iran to China.

    ◾️ Fourth, Iran increasingly serves as a testing ground for China’s indirect military-technical support. According to US officials, the Chinese company SMIC provided Iranian military units with chip production equipment and likely technical training. Ships loaded with sodium perchlorate – a key component in solid rocket fuel – would depart from Chinese ports. Iran was also close to a deal to purchase Chinese CM-302 supersonic anti-ship missiles, posing a direct threat to US ships in the Persian Gulf. And US intelligence is now documenting possible preparations to transfer MANPADS to Iran via third countries.

    Some claims of deeper support, especially regarding BeiDou and Chinese air defense systems, are still disputed, but the overall direction is clear: China is not only helping Iran survive under pressure but also raising the cost of US military presence in the region.

    Therefore, an American blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is not meaningless in terms of putting pressure on Iran, as it could physically cut off a significant portion of exports ultimately going to China. However, it is a blunt instrument: it harms not only Iran and China but the entire region’s energy system, global prices, and US allies. That’s why this move is both powerful and strategically toxic.

  20. MacMelmac

    I quickly checked out your competitor, Johan……it probably won’t be long before you take over the leader jersey.
    You’ll probably be able to lure Surtrutn over soon.

    1. fedtmule

      Jepp, you are right Macmelmac! I peeked in there briefly the other day and was met by a Swedish flag with the Russian double-headed eagle on it. Probably another outburst of SD-Tourettes from the Renaissance man and multi-artist who commands the other blog…… I didn’t even bother to “step” into the blog, just turned at the door.
      As I said, a sad and destructive development, albeit so self-inflicted.
      I look forward to the possibility of Surtruten and a few others coming over to visit in here.

            1. Bal

              As Stenmark expressed it. The more I train, the more luck I seem to have, as he replied to a journalist who said it was luck when he won by a few hundredths.

            2. Jan W

              Good goalkeepers are lucky, I believe Leif, Honken, Holmqvist said back in the day. And the goalposts are my best friends.

              Maybe DenGamle also remembers Honken.

  21. Bal

    Thank you all. I was in there myself and had enough. I am not SD but I think we should cherish democracy and not demonize and divide us as the world looks. The blogger himself says he is non-political but the narrative he always returns to seems to be that of the Center Party.

    I can no longer engage with his blog with a clear conscience as it has become a propaganda channel for his views, views I do not share. The great benefit there is many wise and knowledgeable participants. But now it is no longer possible.

  22. johan No.1

    Went into the post with a Swedish flag with a Russian eagle on it – well, well 😳

    Pushing the line that if you vote for Tidölaget you are a friend of the Russians was quite exciting, and the chain of indications was a mess without a single nail 🤣🤣🤣

    Any attempt at reasoning was immediately branded with the suggestion that they should leave the comment section.

    —

    I live in an old Social Democratic stronghold, checked when I moved in and put a lot of Social Democratic stickers on the mailbox to make friends and greeted the neighbors with a clenched fist in the air like Mandela.

    EVERY person you meet now wants to talk about the situation in Sweden and EVERYONE says that you can’t vote left of center in various versions.

    No one says SD but they say that we need more of the current politics.

    There are four parties on that side so there is a party for everyone – if you want to vote for an uncombed Palestinian woman who has not had a male partner in adulthood, it’s fine even if the opposition calls her Uncle Tom as usual.

    MXT is voting for KD anyway, Ebba has too strong a pull.

    1. DenGamle

      Domestic politics does not belong on forums like Cornucopia (actually not here either, but I dare not write that here, Johan will get mad at me then).

      2. Bal

        I agree. Domestic politics weaken support for Ukraine. We fight against the Russians, not against each other. If one does not realize that, they are supporting Russia.

    2. MXT

      Even though voting for the MP must mean that you are pro-Russian, have I understood your posts correctly? 😂

      I think I should start my own party and vote for myself. There are no sensible alternatives, no one dares to let go of the reins and only try to do what is good for as many as possible.

  23. johan No.1

    The old man always writes 50% hats and 50% caps on his ballot papers out of old habit when trying to balance the power struggle in Stockholm and had enough of the egg-throwing with the accompanying pillory.

    2. johan No.1

      He was supposed to start the “caps” but was 350 years ahead of his time.

      At a meeting, he stepped into a wasp’s nest with a crash, and as he ran around on stage waving his arms and spinning on the ground, he actually invented breakdance even though it was called crash dance back then and it didn’t catch on at all.

      One who tried to be faithful to the original was Rachel Gunn at the Olympics – that’s how it looked on stage in Värnamo in 1784.

  25. DenGamle

    Get Perra here, he writes fantastically well.
    Then there’s the post generator Erik14 who should be here.
    There are more good ones who don’t engage in bickering about domestic politics.
    As long as all parliamentary parties are in agreement in their support for Ukraine, I am satisfied.

  27. johan No.1

    I actually had a post in progress where I was going to compare the parties’ support for Ukraine and everyone would probably support about the same – you can vote for any of them.

    Then I moved on to how they wanted to govern the country in their election promises and everyone wanted to make Sweden wonderful with an extra strawberry on top.

    Then the post shifted to how eight parliamentary parties are shameless hypocrites, will get to that at some point.

    But when it comes to Ukraine, you can vote for any party, probably even more now that they are on the verge of winning.

    1. Jan W

      One perhaps shouldn’t make too much of it, but the only party that voted against Sweden’s first support package was V.

      However, after that, I think everyone has been in agreement.

  28. johan No.1

    In a few weeks when there is time again, I must start looking at Israel, the USA, China because too much is happening.

    We are probably 99.99% sure that Russia will experience a front collapse and Putin will probably be gone this year.

    But that’s just one leg of three, and now things are starting to heat up elsewhere.

    In Pearson’s book, Israel is being overrun, and the way they are behaving now, and the USA is moving away from everything we thought was the American Dream with McDonald’s, anything can happen.

    Just the fact that Iran can get unlimited long-range drones and robots from China, and maybe even Russia, but mostly China, when Israel’s Iron Dome is in poor condition – how much can the country endure before it becomes unstable?

    If the regime in Iran does not fall, things could get lively, it’s hard to see Europe lifting a finger after this and how we historically have reasoned about the Jewish question.

    The defense after October 7, 2023, was justified just like the Iran war, but then it was used to get a foot in the door and start with all sorts of other things as well, which is probably soon time to harvest.

    A bit like that staircase into the fun house at Gröna Lund right now.

    1. CB500four

      Israel has a habit of retaliating tenfold for injustices, and after 7.10 one could probably guess it would be bloody, but it escalated out of control, with Hamas and Iran’s blessing, as it lowered Israel’s reputation in the world. Even in Beirut, Israel’s dying is being exaggerated. Again fueled by Iran, which rejoices at every civilian casualty.

      Unfortunately, Netanyahu has no plan B, when his term is over he knows that he will probably face court. He and the whole of Israel also depend on the goodwill of the USA for defense, especially the offensive part. Iran is pleased that a crack is starting to show between Trump and Netanyahu.

      As long as the mullah regime remains in power, Israel will have more martyrs and ballistic missiles to expect.

      1. fedtmule

        According to information in the media, the Lebanese government is reportedly geared up to, with the help of Israel, neutralize Hezbollah once and for all. This was expressed by representatives after the meeting between the two countries.

    Current information at 08:00 on April 15, 2026 about the Russian invasion

    Honor to Ukraine!

    It is now the 1512th day of Russia’s extensive armed aggression against Ukraine.

    The defense forces are pushing back the occupiers’ attempts to improve their position and advance deeper into Ukraine, inflicting significant losses on the enemy in terms of personnel and equipment.

    A total of 212 clashes have been recorded in the past day.

    Yesterday, the enemy carried out a rocket attack, used one rocket, deployed 6,672 kamikaze drones, and conducted 2,917 shelling of populated areas and our troops’ positions, including 48 with rocket artillery.

    The aggressor carried out air raids, including in the populated areas of Ivanivka and Katerynivka in the Dnipropetrovsk region; Novoukrainka, Shyroke, Novoselivka, Rivne, Dolynka, Omelnyk, Novoivanivka, Komyshuvakha, Shevchenkivske, and Orikhiv in the Zaporizhzhia region.

      No, it is not true that 3I/ATLAS has “stopped.”

      3I/ATLAS (or C/2025 N1 (ATLAS)) is an interstellar comet discovered in July 2025 by the ATLAS telescope. It is the third confirmed interstellar object to pass through our solar system (after ʻOumuamua and Borisov). It follows a hyperbolic trajectory, meaning it is moving too fast to be captured by the sun’s gravity – it simply passes through and continues out into interstellar space again.

      Current status (April 2026):

      •  The comet has already passed its perihelion (closest point to the sun) in October 2025.

      •  Its closest passage by Earth was in December 2025 (about 1.7-1.8 AU away, no risk of collision).

      •  It is now on its way out of the solar system and continues to move away at high speed. It is still observable (although fainter) with large telescopes, and observations have been made as recently as early 2026 by, among others, ESA’s Juice probe and other instruments.

      There have been some speculations and conspiracy theories about the object (e.g. non-gravitational acceleration, jets, or that it could be something other than a natural comet), but scientific observations consistently indicate that it is a regular (albeit interstellar) comet behaving as expected for such an object.

      No sources indicate that it has “stopped” – it is moving exactly as predicted from the beginning.

      If you have heard the rumor from a specific video, post, or source, please feel free to share more details so I can investigate further! Otherwise, it is likely just one of many exaggerations circulating around this exciting (yet natural) visit from another star.

      Yes, that’s correct. The Swedish Transport Administration’s IT project 3i/Atlas has been paused after extensive criticism regarding billion costs and lack of functionality. They are now investigating if and how the work can continue.
