Photo, a year ago. Ukrainian drone, with a FAB-100 bomb in the Bryansk region. Was intercepted by Russian electronic warfare. Almost every night, dozens of such drones deliver "gifts" to Russian positions.

Ukrainian drone. FAB-250
I see that you took my advice and prevented your head from exploding. BTW these are very expensive especially because they are a worthless POS weapon. "Akim I know you don't have me on ignore. Pretending is putting you in danger. You read my stuff, but you can't relieve the pressure of anger by lashing back at me. This pressure will build up until your head explodes. Don't be an idiot (although it's too late for that) like Zelensky and stubbornly double down like he did in Kursk. Either leave this forum or let your head explode." https://defenceforumbharat.com/threads/russian-ukrainian-war.278/post-97151 1743761899638.webp
 
New archive footage of the destruction of a Russian Ka-52 helicopter with a MANPADS by servicemen of the former Russian PMC Wagner. The Ka-52 was shot down in the Voronezh region of Russia on June 24, 2023, during Wagner's campaign against Moscow, the pilots were killed. The attitude towards the head of the PMC Wagner and his role in the war in Ukraine is still ambiguous, people's opinions are divided. Recall that the Embraer Legacy 600 aircraft crashed in the Tver region on the evening of August 23, 2023, after taking off from Sheremetyevo Airport. There were ten people on board the plane, including Yevgeny Prigozhin and the commander of the PMC Wagner Dmitry Utkin. There are still no results of the investigation into the plane crash. Some videos on the topic of the PMC Wagner in the links to the videos in the comments to the video. The video also shows an appeal from the head of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, to the former Russian Minister of Defense, General Sergei Shoigu.

The first consequences of the Ukrainian army's battles during an attempt to break through to the Belgorod region of Russia from the Sumy region of Ukraine have appeared. The episode of the video was filmed with a drone on the border of Russia and Ukraine, showing some of the abandoned and destroyed Ukrainian equipment. The battles are taking place in the vicinity of the settlements of Demidovka and Popovka in the Belgorod region of Russia. Judging by the video, protective concrete tetrahedrons, also called "Dragon's Teeth", complicated the breakthrough of the Russian border for Ukrainian equipment. Apparently, at the moment of overcoming them, all Ukrainian equipment was attacked by Russian drones and Ka-52 and Mi-28 helicopters using "Whirlwind" missiles. The video shows the destroyed and abandoned Ukrainian engineering vehicles Bergepanzer 2 and IMR-2, M2A2 Bradley ODS-SA IFV, Marder 1A3 IFV, M113 armored personnel carrier, T-72 tank and BMP-1TS with the "Spis" module. Technical information about the equipment is on the channel.

What a waste of money. Those drones from what I've seen are suicide drones, and they cost over a half a million dollars each. Russia returns those gifts by delivering tens of thousands of these and they are on average 10 times more powerful and way more accurate, and much less expensive.
 
Ha-ha, where's the zero?
As for uselessness - let the Russian soldiers at the front tell you. They are afraid of even heavy quadcopters with 10 kg of explosives. The FAB-250 has 100 kg.

Jet aviation is busy launching Western bombs. They are programmed at the airfield and the MiG-29 has a high chance of escaping Russian air defense. Such slow-moving drones are difficult to detect, are poorly vulnerable and can fly right over an enemy position. So go and feed your chickens.

Where's the zero? Right next to your IQ score. Admit it Akim, those are just painted watermelons. BTW where did they find those old rusty bombs, in a old land fill from WW2? I also can tell you over dosed on copium and it cause brain damage. Ukraine is finished. It's only a question of when, and if you want to fight till the last person. Make Lindsey Graham proud of your country and save him from a bruised ego which will happen if you don't fight till the last.

War in Ukraine; no peace as yet.

During Donald Trump’s tenure in the White House, his administration initiated a peace proposal aimed at resolving the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Although the specifics of this plan were not publicly disclosed, it reportedly involved delaying Ukraine’s NATO membership by 20 years and deploying European peacekeepers in the region.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky initially found the proposal unacceptable but faced pressure to acquiesce, leading to its submission to Moscow for consideration. However, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov expressed dissatisfaction with key elements of the plan, particularly the postponement of Ukraine’s NATO membership and the proposed deployment of peacekeeping forces.

Consequently, the conflict persisted, with only a marginal reduction in hostilities. Media reports indicated that all three parties—the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia—were retreating from the peace initiatives, leaving the situation at an impasse. Complicating matters, President Trump was preoccupied with implementing widespread tariffs on numerous countries, including China, the European Union, and the UK, which diverted attention from the Ukrainian conflict.

As a result, the war in Ukraine continued, albeit with a slight decrease in intensity.
 
Part 14 of my blog series on the Ukraine war.
I review my past assumptions based on analysis of new data and also summarise recent operations.

An interetsing finding I discuss is the age profile of casualties on both sides, which has implications for
India's own Agnipath scheme.

A Ukrainian serviceman of the Lugansk assault regiment filmed the moment when a Ukrainian M113 armored personnel carrier ran over a mine during a battle in the city of Toretsk. A Russian UAV also recorded the moment when the vehicle ran over a mine. It is worth noting that such combinations of footage are rare. The M113 armored personnel carrier was developed in the United States in 1959 and was produced until 2007.

Episode of the rescue of a Russian Ural truck from an attack by a Ukrainian FPV drone. The video was filmed by Russian servicemen of the 3rd motorized rifle division in the Luhansk region, near the village of Melovatki. The drone is being fired at from small arms at a long distance. The drone was destroyed above the truck itself. Judging by the video, the truck was not damaged.
