Ukraine Situation Report: Plot To Steal A Tu-22M3 Backfire
Thwarted Russia Claims


"Russian authorities say they foiled another Ukrainian attempt to convince
a pilot to pilfer a Tu-22M3 Backfire-C bomber.

The Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) claimed that Ukrainian special
services, plotting with “special services of NATO countries,” tried to get a
pilot to “hijack” the bomber and take it to Ukraine.

The unnamed NATO countries were involved in the “preparation and
implementation” of the plot, according to the FSB, which provided no proof.

“Ukrainian intelligence intended to recruit a Russian military pilot for a
monetary reward and the granting of Italian citizenship, and to persuade
him to fly and land a missile carrier in Ukraine,” the FSB claimed."

Desperate Russia’s Wild Lies Leave Soldiers Waving
Red Underpants


"Russian military commanders have been falsely claiming to have taken
certain towns or villages. “You brought up lying,” he said. “My close
friend, Ilyukha—I talk about him a lot—the head of combat training for
the fifth brigade, created a system of red underpants. They would
regularly get hit because of their lying neighboring units. They
exclaimed that certain places were taken, but then it turned out that
they actually weren’t.”

Solovyov described the process that had to be created because of these
deceptive commanders: A surveillance drone is sent to the area that
was supposedly taken by Russian troops, “If you’re really there, wave a
red rag over your head. Then it becomes clear whether you’re really
there, or are just claiming to be there in your reports. This is called a
system of red underpants, it works very well. You immediately see what
is real and what is a fairy tale.”"

Interesting story regarding the capture of the first "Turtle Tank" by soldiers of the 244th battalion of the 112th Territorial Defense Brigade near Klishchiivka.

Story is that the TT followed a Ukrainian M113. After the encounter, the TT driver popped out and asked the soldiers on finding his way back to the main roads; he got lost.

The soldiers took it upon themselves to pounce on the driver and detain the other Russian soldiers in it.

US and Germany foiled Russian plot to assassinate CEO of arms
manufacturer sending weapons to Ukraine


"The plot was one of a series of Russian plans to assassinate defense industry
executives across Europe who were supporting Ukraine’s war effort, these
sources said. The plan to kill Armin Papperger, a white-haired goliath who has
led the German manufacturing charge in support of Kyiv, was the most
mature.

When the Americans learned of the effort, they informed Germany, whose
security services were then able to protect Papperger and foil the plot. A
high-level German government official confirmed that Berlin was warned
about the plot by the US."

Russia cracks down on personal phones on the frontline

https://www.politico.eu/article/russ...the-frontline/

It will be sad when we no longer get fresh copium gems from the russian army, but on the plus side I think no one will tell them their "genius ideas" only make it worse, so expect the casualty rate to increase overtime "cause of death: sheer stupidity".

Russian troops practice at the firing range, using the 73-mm 2A28 cannons taken off from BMP-1 APCs.

Teensy bit of update.

Did some research and the DPR/LPR did have the Pyatnashka battalion, under the 87th Rifle Regiment.

I did find out that there are non-White volunteers (from Asia/Latin America) and it's known to have pro-Moscow Japanese volunteers.

Zelensky said in a japanese interview they will release a peace plan this year in November.

Fearless prediction: as a requisite to start negotiations, they will demand Russia returns all territories taken from Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Estonia, Finland & Japan.

Oh that would be hilarious. Especially if it is after the US Presidential elections and Harris wins. Not so much if Trump wins, but I would like the guts in such a plan.

Couple of TM-62 anti-tank mines put together as makeshift dropped explosives to clear out Russian positions.

I think turtle tanks are made to prevent classification when destroyed, not to protect the orcs inside. In layman terms, they are sending T-62 tanks because that is what is left. Of course they must have a few t-80s and t-90s in storage, just in case China entertains the thought of doing the same germany did with their stupid ally in "operation axis".
